Advertising appeals more to our emotions than to our minds and therefore uses persuasive techniques which, though not misleading, are certainly biased towards its products.Advertisements have some basic features.
·They are fast and short.They deliver their message in minimum time and space. ·They are concentrated.Their language and images are extremely dense. ·They appeal to consumers’ emotions rather than to their logic.

A.buy their products and lay down B.vote for them and give up their lives C.support them and lie down D.buy their products and give them tickets 57.How can advertisements attract people?
