Advertisements, c{#blank#}1{#/blank#} of two main types, are all around us. A(n) {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (商业的）advertisement is one people have paid for to advertise a product or a service while a public service advertisement is made for free to teach us and help us lead better lives, which is b{#blank#}3{#/blank#} to the public.

    The type of language used in advertisements is very {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (独特的）.For example,most adjectives in advertisements have positive meanings so that they can help the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (观众）remember the products the advertisements p{#blank#}6{#/blank#}.

    Advertising dates back to the Christian Era（公元）.One of the first known methods of advertising was outdoor signs,which would be painted on the wall of a building and were usually {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (引人注目的）.Archaeologists(考古学家）have found signs in the ruins of ancient Rome and Pompeii,a city which was completely d{#blank#}8{#/blank#} by the volcano {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (爆发）near the city in AD79.

    Nowadays, advertisements appear in many types of media(媒体）,making it more c{#blank#}10{#/blank#} for people to get information.But some false and irrelevant(不相关的）advertisements appear in our lives.So we should rationally(理性）deal with advertisements.

    Lantern Festival falls{#blank#}1{#/blank#}the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. This is the first full moon of the new year, representing unity and perfection， this festival also marks the{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(office)end of the long holiday.

    There are many legends(传说)related to the origins of Lantern Festival.

    According to one legend, once in ancient times, a celestial(天堂的)swan came into the human world {#blank#}3{#/blank#} it was shot down by a hunter. The Jade Emperor, the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(high)god in Heaven, was angry about this. He{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (plan)an attack on Earth on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, with orders to destroy all people and animals. But the other celestials {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (disagree) with him and risked their lives {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(warn)the people of Earth. As {#blank#}8{#/blank#}result, before and after the fifteenth day of the first month, every family hung red lanterns outside their doors and set {#blank#}9{#/blank#}firecrackers and fireworks(烟花爆竹), giving the impression that their homes were already burning. By successfully {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(trick)the Jade Emperor in this way, human beings were saved from destruction.

    It is sad but true that people die in earthquakes{#blank#}1{#/blank#}falling furniture and bricks. Earthquake{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(safe) is very important and there is more to it{#blank#}3{#/blank#}just keeping buildings from falling down. So if your home is in an earthquake area, you should prepare carefully before the earthquake{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(come).

    First, make sure you buy a house which is earthquake safe. All pipes should be fixed to the walls and all walls should be{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(especial) thick and strong. Make sure the building has no{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(break) windows and is well repaired.

    Second, look at the objects in your house. Objects{#blank#}7{#/blank#}computers, televisions and lamps can be tied to tables or{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(stick) to them so they won't easily move around. The cupboards,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}many small things are stored, should have strong doors. Always remember,{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(good) safe than sorry.
