Look over the countryside and you will see that I am in the majority.”Blue interrupted, “You only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It is the water

16、that is the basis of life.”Yellow chuckled(咯咯地笑). “The sun is yellow, as well as the moon and the stars.

23、eave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm, in the winter especially, we wear quite out off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital.

25、 can be quite dangerous. Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment.

By discussing.DA few years ago, a company called Space Marketing came up with a plan to send a milelong advertisement into space. To advertising agencies, it would have been “a dream come true”. However, advertising standar

30、ds agencies finally decided not to allow Space Marketing to go ahead with their plans and they were forced to give them up.Space may indeed be the final place for advertisers, because on Earth we are already surrounded by advertising wherever we are and whatever we are doing. Apart from the obvious

31、adverts that we see every day on TV, and in newspapers and magazines, there is a whole other world of advertising messages for our attention. There are ads that we see on the side of the bus we catch to work, for example. And what about the logos (商标) we see on the clothing of the people we walk pas
