GRE写作素材Section Four: Mass Media
<p> 下面的材料旨在丰富学生在是非问题写作方面的思想和语言，考生在复习时可以先分类阅读这些篇章，然后尝试写相关方面的作文题。</p><p> 对于素材中用黑体字的部分，特别建议你熟读，背诵，因为它们在语言和观点上都值得吸收。学习语言的人应该明白，表达能力和思想深度都靠日积月累，潜移默化。从某种意义上说，提高英语写作能力无捷径可走，你必须大段背诵英语文章才能逐渐形成语感和用英语进行表达的能力。这一关，没有任何人能代替你过。</p><p> 因此，建议你下点苦功夫，把背单词的精神拿出来背诵文章。何况，并不是要求你背了之后永远牢记在心：你可以这个星期背，下个星期忘。这没有关系，相信你的大脑具有神奇的能力。背了工具箱里的文章后，你会惊讶的发现：<span word="I">I</span> <span word="can">can</span> <span word="think">think</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="English">English</span> <span word="now">now</span>!</p><p> 1. <span word="Propaganda">Propaganda</span> <span word="Techniques">Techniques</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="Todays">Todays</span> <span word="Advertising">Advertising</span></p><p> <span word="Propaganda">Propaganda</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="just">just</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="tool">tool</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="totalitarian">totalitarian</span> <span word="governments">governments</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="dictators">dictators</span>. <span word="Rather">Rather</span>, <span word="propaganda">propaganda</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="all">all</span> <span word="around">around</span> <span word="usin">usin</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="form">form</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="commercials">commercials</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="advertisements">advertisements</span>. <span word="The">The</span> <span word="author">author</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="this">this</span> <span word="selection">selection</span> <span word="shows">shows</span> <span word="how">how</span> <span word="Madison">Madison</span> <span word="Avenue">Avenue</span> <span word="uses">uses</span> <span word="many">many</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="techniques">techniques</span> <span word="typical">typical</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="political">political</span> <span word="propaganda">propaganda</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="convince">convince</span> <span word="us">us</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="we">we</span> <span word="need">need</span> <span word="certain">certain</span> <span word="products">products</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="services">services</span>. <span word="After">After</span> <span word="reading">reading</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="essay">essay</span>, <span word="you">you</span> <span word="may">may</span> <span word="regard">regard</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="different">different</span> <span word="light">light</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="jingles">jingles</span>, <span word="endorsements">endorsements</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="slogans">slogans</span> <span word="characteristic">characteristic</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="todays">todays</span> <span word="commercials">commercials</span>.</p>
