There are many advertisements directed at children, such as snacks, toys and other goods. Parents argue that children are under pressure. Advertisers claim that the advertisements provide useful information. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
在一些国家，广告商增加广告的数量，试图说服孩子们买零食、玩具和其他商品。父母反对给孩子施加这样的压力。但一些广告主声称，这些广告中有有用的信息。讨论两种观点并给出你的意见。
参考范文：
Children today are too often bombarded with specially designed advertisements with rather juvenile tones and cartoony characters. In the essay, both positive and negative effects will be explored.
The dark side of the commercials aimed at the innocent young accounts for the unduly stress imposed on both children and parents. The most conspicuous defect is that juveniles tend to “keep up with Joneses” by asking for more pocket money to buy whatever is the latest advertised. Another drawback involves improper associations between a particular product and an image. For instance, over emphasis on a fancy electronic dictionary might distract children’s attention from enlarging vocabulary by simply repeating new words. Also, some candy advertisers will artfully create an illusion that only those who do not love won’t purchase the big bar of chocolate for their kids.
From the bright side, these advertisements are at least informative. For example, when a mother is fretting about her primary school child’s poor academic results, she can know a wide range of after-school or weekend classes through the promotions of various courses on the Internet, television and broadcast, after careful comparison of which, she could make a wiser choice. Unfortunately, this is not the whole story. Profit-oriented, most of the advertisements are bombastic and pompous, leading to a large sum of money, time and efforts totally in vain.
In conclusion, the vices overwhelm the virtues brought by these children-targeted advertisements. Even the adults can barely discern truth from deceptions and exaggerations, let alone the inexperienced who will also suffer from unnecessary peer pressure and wrong associations.
