12、chool. Now, he was a bit fat and thick glasses covered his eyes. However, that didnt change Marys feelings for him at all. He had just bought a brand new red sports car and asked her if she would like to go for a ride and then have dinner with him. Her heart beat with excitement as he opened the doo

13、r for her. She noticed something very strange as Mark got into the car and started to drive away. On the hair was a group of flies just sitting there. Mary stared in amazement. It seemed the faster they drove, the more determined the flies were to stick to his hair. Mary remained silent. She leaned

14、forward and turned the radio on, to try to divert her attention away from the flies, but she couldnt help thinking about them. She looked up at Mark, who was completely devoted to what was going on and continued to sing to the music while driving merrily along. Finally, Mark pulled the vehicle over

15、to the side of the road beside a diner and looked in the mirror and said, “Mary, I would like to comb my hair before we get something to eat.

18、couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater. You listen to their conversation: I cant believe it-a Lorenzo Bertolla! They are almost impossible to find. Isnt it beautiful? And its a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome. They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. Its

19、 nice and the price is right. Youve never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really stylish. They must know. So, you buy it.

20、Bertolla clothes. Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eating. If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too. This is the secret of undercover marketing.

21、ont pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV generation - consumers between the age of 18 and 34. It is a golden group.

22、e young adults go. Some people might call this practice deceptive (骗人的), but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. Look at traditional advertising.

27、 Yes, it is America; it is the land of freedom; its the place where different cultures clash and live together in peace. However, you guys might agree with me: its not easy to leave home and the security of family, friends and people who love and care about us. And doing it raises some questions: Is

28、 it worth it? Are you equal to the challenge? You might be sitting in front of your computer watching a documentary about America, which shows you the breathtaking views of skyscrapers in New York, the beautiful warm weather in San Diego, and the huge parties along the beaches of the Sunshine State,
