Part 1 常见问题及高分回答思路
Q: Do you like watching advertisements?
- 思路: 不要简单回答 "Yes" 或 "No",给出一个有 nuance (有细微差别) 的回答,并解释原因。
- 高分回答范例: "It's a bit of a mixed feeling for me. On one hand, I find some commercials, especially the creative and well-produced ones, quite entertaining. They can be like short, artistic films. For example, the Christmas ads from big brands like John Lewis or Apple are often highly anticipated. On the other hand, I can get really annoyed when an ad interrupts my favorite show online or is just repetitive and unoriginal. So, it really depends on the quality and the context."
Q: What kinds of advertisements do you see most often?
- 思路: 描述你日常生活中最常见的广告类型,并举例说明在哪里能看到。
- 高分回答范例: "I'd say I'm most exposed to digital advertisements. They seem to be everywhere on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok, tailored to my browsing history. Besides that, I also see a lot of billboards and posters on my way to work or when I'm taking the subway. Oh, and of course, television commercials, though I tend to fast-forward them when I'm watching recorded shows."
Q: Do you think advertising is necessary?

- 思路: 给出明确观点,然后从不同角度(如商家、消费者)论证。
- 高分回答范例: "Absolutely, I think it's an essential part of modern commerce. For businesses, advertising is a crucial tool to build brand awareness and let consumers know about their products or services. It creates a competitive market which can be beneficial for consumers, as companies might try to offer better prices or quality. However, it's important that this is done ethically and not in a misleading way."
Q: Have you ever bought something because you saw an advertisement for it?
- 思路: 用一个具体的例子来让你的回答更生动、可信。
- 高分回答范例: "Yes, definitely. I remember seeing a really cool advertisement for a pair of wireless noise-cancelling headphones online. The ad was very visually appealing and highlighted the product's key features, like its long battery life and superior sound quality. I was in the market for a new pair at the time, and the ad definitely swayed my decision. I ended up buying them, and I'm quite happy with the purchase."
Part 2 核心话题卡及高分回答范例
Describe an advertisement that you remember well. You should say:
- what product or service it was for
- where you saw or heard it
- what the advertisement showed
- and explain why you remember this advertisement.
高分回答范例:
(Using the "storytelling" method to make it engaging)
"I'd like to talk about an advertisement that I still remember vividly, even though I saw it several years ago. It was a commercial for a brand of instant noodles, specifically the spicy beef flavor.
I first came across this ad on YouTube, right before a movie trailer started. It was one of those short video ads that you can't skip, so I was initially a bit annoyed. But I was completely captivated within the first few seconds.
The ad was incredibly well-made and told a mini-story. It opened with a young office worker who looked completely exhausted and demotivated. His cubicle was grey and dull, and he was slumped over his keyboard. Suddenly, he remembered the instant noodles in his drawer. The scene then shifted to a fantastical, vibrant world where he was a heroic warrior, battling a giant, fiery monster. The monster represented his fatigue and hunger, and his weapon was a bowl of the spicy noodles. The action was dynamic, the music was epic, and the whole sequence was visually stunning.
The reason why I remember it so well is that it was a brilliant example of creative advertising. Instead of just showing the product and listing its features, the ad created an emotional connection. It perfectly captured the feeling of a quick, satisfying escape from a stressful day. It didn't just sell noodles; it sold a moment of relief and empowerment. It was so entertaining that I even watched it again after the movie finished. I think that's the power of great advertising – it makes you feel something, and as a result, the brand stays with you long after the ad is over."
Part 3 深入讨论问题及回答思路
Q: How has advertising changed over the past few decades?
- 思路: 对比过去和现在,从媒介、方式、消费者角色等方面分析。
- 回答思路: "The change has been monumental. In the past, advertising was a one-way street. It was dominated by traditional media like TV, radio, and print newspapers. Companies would broadcast their message to a wide, passive audience. The focus was more on hard-selling the product's features. Now, with the internet and social media, the landscape is completely different. Advertising has become interactive and personalized. We see targeted ads based on our online behavior. Moreover, consumers are no longer passive recipients; they can actively engage with brands, leave reviews, and even create user-generated content, which is a new form of advertising itself."
Q: What are the most effective methods of advertising?
- 思路: 不要只说一种,可以分情况讨论,比如不同产品、不同目标受众。
- 回答思路: "I believe there's no one-size-fits-all answer, as the effectiveness depends on the product and the target audience. For mass-market products like soft drinks or fast food, television commercials and online video ads can still be very effective due to their wide reach. However, for niche or luxury products, influencer marketing on platforms like Instagram or Weibo can be more powerful because it builds trust and credibility through a personal recommendation. Ultimately, I think the most effective advertising is the one that feels authentic and provides value to the consumer, rather than being overly intrusive."
Q: Do you think children are influenced by advertising? Is this a positive or negative thing?
- 思路: 承认影响巨大,然后从正反两方面分析,最后给出自己的看法。
- 回答思路: "Yes, I think children are particularly susceptible to advertising, perhaps even more so than adults. They lack the critical thinking skills to differentiate between a commercial objective and factual information. This can be negative because it often promotes consumerism and can lead to 'pester power,' where children nag their parents to buy
