III. Bài mẫu:
I’m going to share with you about an advert that I find really annoying because of its insincerity, inauthenticity and misleading effects on our buying behaviors. It is an advertisement about tips to lose 10 kilos in a month.
If I can recall correctly, I came across this advertisement when streaming videos on Youtube a couple of weeks ago. It is eye-catching to everyone who wants to get lean in a short time and I am no exception.
When I clicked on it, a slim and attractive young lady, probably an online influencer, showed up and started to talk about how she had lost 10 kilograms in three months without doing any exercise. In the beginning, she introduced her diet, which is low- carbon and high in protein. This part took only less than a minute. But when coming to the last tip, it became a promotion of a supplement that can block carbohydrate absorption. She boasted about how effective it was for almost 5 minutes. Then came the part about how viewers can get a discount from her link. Not until then did I realize that this video was not an experience – sharing video but an advertisement for a new product.
I would say that
- The information conveyed in the video was unreliable since it gave the audience, specially young people, a false hope that we could get in good shape only by taking those “magical pills”.
- Instead of spreading helpful information for the sake of the general public, they only care about making a profit.
-> This is why I have a deep-seated aversion to most of them .
-> This is why I have a deep-seated aversion to most of them .

V. PART 3 QUESTIONS
1. What kind of things advertise most in your country?
In my country, advertising takes many forms, but the most common ones are television commercials, billboards, and social media ads. On top of that, companies also use influencers to promote their products on social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook. And actually, radio ads and print ads in magazines and newspapers are still prevalent in my country.

- influencers : những người có ảnh hưởng
- prevalent: phổ biến
2. Which one is more effective: newspaper advertising or online advertising?
Well, It really depends on the target audience and the nature of the product or service being advertised. I mean newspaper advertising can be effective for reaching older generations who still prefer print media, while online advertising may be more effective for younger, tech-savvy audiences. That said, with the increasing popularity of digital media, online advertising is becoming more and more important in today’s world.
- target audience: đối tượng khách hàng
- tech-savvy: hiểu biết về công nghệ
