The Starry Night was painted in June 1889 when Vincent van Ggh was staying at a hme fr the mentally ill. Van Ggh painted what he saw frm his windw - the night sky with cluds stars and a mn. Hwever, he didn’t just paint the cluds He als painted the massive circles f white and yellw racing acrss the sky. The stars and the mn hang bright in the night sky. Beneath this amazing sky, we see a sleeping village and a dark lnely tree.

The advertising industry started with the fundamental purpse f prmting and selling gds t peple wh might need them. Advertising agencies wuld create a basic type f advertisement knwn as a cmmercial advertisement. Such advertisements have gne thrugh a prcess f change ver the years alng with scial, ecnmic and technlgical develpments.
Classic advertisements used t give infrmatin abut finding certain prducts. It was likely t be the name f a cmpany, part f which might include the name f the place frm which the prduct riginated. Fr example, it culd be “Shanghai Sewing Machines”, r “Tsing Ta Beer Crpratin”. Frm the name yu wuld knw what the cmpany sells, where they are lcated, and the name f the prduct.
Advertising agencies used t create this kind f advertising and it culd be very effective. But then they realized that it might nt be suitable fr a marketplace where prducts and services are in direct cmpetitin with each ther. Particularly nw, in mdern times, advertisements need t attract and hld the attentin f the public. Fr this reasn, it’s nw nrmal t see advertisements that cnsist f pictures r wrds frm experts t shw peple hw gd the prduct is. Others try t create advertisements that peple simply enjy lking at. As present-day advertisers ften have large budgets, huge amunts f mney are spent n applying mdern design techniques t make these advertisements as visually attractive as pssible. Hwever, even this is ften nt enugh t be nticed in a mdern city.
Because f the bst in advertising, peple are used t seeing a high standard f visual design. Mdern advertisements need smething else t separate them frm their cmpetitrs. T stand ut in a wrld f cmpetitive advertising, they must cmbine the highest standard f design with creative ways t make peple believe that they “must have the prduct”. Fr example, sme advertisements may suggest that buying a car can make yu free. That is, they use the cncept f freedm t sell the car. Other cmmn ideas include happiness, wealth and success. In fact, in the wrld f advertisements, such cntent is as ld as advertising itself.
Fr many f tday’s advertisers, repeating ld ideas is nt a successful apprach. Ideas that wuld wrk in the past genuinely are nt as effective nw. They realize that it des nt matter hw attractive the idea linked with the prduct is—mst peple knw and anticipate that the main purpse f the advertisement is t make custmers buy the prduct. Instead, these advertisers lk fr ther ways t make peple ntice their prducts. The tp advertisers f tday believe that using humur as well as new and unusual ideas t surprise peple is imprtant. Their aim is t create smething that has never been seen befre and that peple find interesting. By ding this, they hpe t make peple frget that smene is trying t sell them smething!
Hwever, nt all advertising is abut selling prducts and services fr a prfit. Sme advertisements nwadays aim t make a cntributin t sciety and welfare. Fr example, there are public advertisements, which encurage citizens t participate in imprving their neighburhd, prtecting the envirnment, and helping ther peple. Over the last decade, the gvernment has spnsred advertisements t educate the public n fighting AIDS, saving water, helping the pr, giving up smking, etc. These advertisements have helped t increase public knwledge abut tpics that used t be ignred by mst peple, and this has made ur sciety a better place fr everyne.

It seems bvius nw hw we acquire knwledge and understanding. T start with, we need questins. Then, t find answers, we bserve the wrld arund us and study the facts. After that, we cnsider pssible answers and test each t find the right nes. Althugh tday we are mre used t typing a few key wrds int a search engine and waiting fr the Internet t give us an answer, mdern scientists and thinkers are still slving the wrld’s prblems with this type f analysis—luckily fr us.
Hwever, in the 17th century when Francis Bacn (1561-1626) suggested that this type f thinking was the way t gain knwledge, he was ging against the views f the day. Althugh Bacn held an imprtant rank in King James’ ryal curt f England, his true interest was nt the day-t-day, slw and inefficient wrking style f the gvernment, but the wrthy search fr knwledge. This was certainly nt the interest f mst peple in his days. At that time, peple believed mre in the church than in facts, and peple like Galile Galilei (1564-1642), wh prved the idea that “the Earth is nt the centre f the universe”, were ften punished by the church with n ne cming t their defence. The church and many peple tended t ignre the facts and didn’t want t challenge what they had always cmfrtably believed. In fact, when Galilei prved that the Earth was nt the centre f the universe, instead f believing him, peple chse t believe views that were almst 2,000 years ld!
It is nt surprising that peple wanted t believe these primitive ideas as they had been put frward by the great philspher Aristtle (384-322 BCE). He said that the Earth must be the centre f the universe because it felt like the Earth was standing still. Galilei disagreed. At first, peple apprved f his studies and urged him t cntinue, but later when he prved Aristtle wrng, they grew angry and put him in prisn. They didn’t want t abandn what they’d always thught as true. And this is still ften true tday. Peple make the assumptin that if smene imprtant and respected says that smething is right, then it must be s. But even thugh Aristtle was a great man wh inspired many great scientists and philsphers after him, he was wrng at times. And Galilei als made mistakes. He is nw knwn as the father f astrnmy but he believed that the Earth mved rund the sun in a perfect circle. He was wrng.
Therefre, ur understanding f the wrld arund us is cnstantly grwing and changing. In ther wrds, we learn mre every day and nne f us can ever sit back and say, “We knw it all.” We need t thank the great men f the past fr their wisdm. They understd that we dn’t knw everything and prbably never will, as this wuld mean a wrld with questins.
We we s much f ur knwledge and understanding f the wrld t peple like Bacn and Galilei, wh were brave enugh t step ut frm the shadws f cnventinal thught in rder t find the kingdm f knwledge that tday’s civilizatin is built upn. These men knew that knwledge and understanding are things t fight fr; mre vital t a man, and mre beneficial t mankind, sme might say, than all the mney in the wrld.
12. Hw are we used t finding answers f questins tday?
A. we bserve the wrld arund us and study the facts.
B. we cnsider pssible answers and test each t find the right nes.
C. we type a few key wrds int a search engine and wait fr the Internet t give us an answer.
D. First f all, we need questins.
13. The authr used the stries f Aristtle and Galilei in rder t tell us what?
A. many peple tended t ignre the facts and didn’t want t challenge what they had always cmfrtably believed.
B. N ne is perfect and ur understanding f the wrld arund us is cnstantly grwing and changing.
C. Even great men like Aristtle and Galile Galilei can make mistakes.
D. Peple make the assumptin that if smene imprtant and respected says that smething is right, then it must be s.
14. What des the underlined wrds“sit back”in paragragh 4 mean？
A. stp studyB. relax in a chairC. wait fr success t cmeD. stp wrk
15. What is the authr’s attitude tward peple like Bacn and Galilei？
