Taking about advertisements
提示：假定有人不喜欢看电视广告，要换频道。你告诉他广告是现代生活的一部分，每个人必须面对他们。他说广告总是劝你买你不需要的东西，有的广告甚至欺骗消费者。你认为他所说的只是部分正确，比如公益广告就是对我们很有益。他说商业广告不可信，广告商们总是暗示自己的产品最好。你说商业广告提供产品的各种信息，只要我们善于比较，广告还是对我们有益的。

A: Very good? Could you show me some examples?
B: Yes, some public service ads try to educate people about safety, health and so on. What do you think?
A: I agree, but commercial ads are quite different. The advertisers always suggest their products are the best. So we can never believe them.
