many as possible, they have to tell many people about the products.

Advertising helps people to do this.

However, advertising can also have its problems.

For example, when people see so many advertisements,

they stop noticing them.

Advertisers have some very interesting ways to

overcome this problem. CANKAYA UNIVERSITY - OFFICE OF BASIC AND ELECTIVE COURSES- ENGLISH UNIT

1. Work in groups. Think of an ad you have seen or heard and describe it to your group using the questions in the chart. Take notes in the chart about the other student’s answers.


Your Ad Student 2’s Ad Student 3’s Ad

Previewing the Academic Skills Focus Organizational Structure Organizational structure is the patterns of the ideas across the

text or lecture. Many lectures, essay, and academic textbook sections in English

follow the same basic structure : The introduction- Gives the main idea of the text- It opens the topic with important general information (the

general statement)- It also gives the main idea(s) of the text (the scope).- The scope and general statement can be one or more

sentences in length


The Body - Gives more specific information about the main idea.- Gives explanations, examples, reasons, effects,etc.

The conclusion- Returns to the main idea presented in the introduction

and closes the topic.

The introduction and conclusion is usually short. The body is the longer, main part of the text.

Recognizing the organizational structure can help you to follow the main ideas throughout a lecture or reading.

Global Listening Recognizing Relationships among Parts of a LectureWe have learnt that main ideas are mentioned in the

scope (introduction), the body and in the conclusionHow can we recognize which idea is main idea ? Speakers usually use special words and expressions called

signals to tell listeners what the main ideas are. For example , a lecturer might say in the scope:

First, we’ll look at marketing brand name products. Then we ‘ll move on to other kinds of products.

First, we’ll look at marketing brand name products. Then we ‘ll move on to other kinds of products.


The signals

Similar signals are used in the body of the lecture to introduce main idea.

Also, these signals introduce the conclusion: To conclude…. and In summary….

Signals include words and expressions called logical connectives.

These tell you the relationships between ideas. For example However shows that next idea is different from the one

beforeBecause shows that the next idea is reason

These will help you to understand lectures easily.

Global Reading Recognizing Organization of Written TextsLike lectures, written texts have an organizational

structure. The stages are basically the same

The introduction includes a general statement and and a scope, giving the main ideas.

Each body paragraph show the main ideas followed by the supporting ideas.

The conclusion returns to the main ideas. Just reading one part of the introduction, you can quickly

find main idea.


1. Read paragraphs 1-3 of the passage on pages 31-32 and answers the questions.

a. paragraph 3 b. choosing advertising objectives, setting the advertising budget, developing the advertising strategy, evaluating the advertising programs


2. Read all the headings and answer the question on page 30. c. -choosing the advertising objectives (heading: “Setting Advertising Objectives”)

-setting the advertising budget

3. Read paragraph 4 and answer the question on page 30. d. the four advertising objectives: to inform, to persuade, to compare, to remind

4. Read paragraphs 5-8 and answer the question on page 30. e. yes


Recognizing Purposes of Texts Knowing the purpose of a text helps you to understand it

easily. Here are some common purposes:To give informationTo show an opinionTo advertise

There are also a number of organizational structures, such as process, opinion, and explanation.

Each type of organizational structure has a different purpose. For exampleProcess: to show the steps in a processOpinion: to give reasons for an opinionExplanation: to explain an idea


2.Read the whole text and answer the questions on page 31.

1. Which statement best describes the purpose of paragraph 1-3?

Focused Reading1. Read the text again. Then Answer the questions.

1. Which kinds of organizations are listed in the reading ? businesses, not-for-profit organizations, professionals,

government agencies

2. Complete the chart on page 33 by adding types of advertising next to their objectives.

Comparative persuasive reminder informative


Understanding Relationships within a Reading Text The main reading in this unit is an explanation. Texts

often explain by using these strategies:Defining technical wordsGiving examplesGiving a purpose or a reasonComparing (showing similarities) and contrasting (showing

differences)Like in lectures, logical connectives show the relationship

between ideas. With logical connectives, we can understand which

strategy is being used


ExampleInformative advertising works best for new products. However, if there are many similar products from other companies, persuasive advertising is better.

The logical connective “However” shows that two ideas are opposite. This is a contrast relationship.

The example uses a contrast relationship to explain something about two advertising types.

Texts with other purposes and structure use similar relationships.


2. Scan the text looking for logical connectives in the box and put them in the correct column on the chart on page 34.

Purpose:to + verb

Contrast: a different kind of…; but; however; rather than

Reason : because


3. Look at the structure of each paragraph in the reading. Which paragraph is being described in each list ? Write the paragraph number on the line.


•definition• examples• more information

• contrast (with previous advertisingstrategy)• reason• definition• example

Paragraph 6

Paragraph 7

•purpose• an example

• definition• contrast• reason Paragrap

h 8Paragrap

h 5

4. Work with a partner. Imagine you are going to advertise the products listed. Answers the questions and share your ideas with the class. A car with a completely new kind of engineA popular and fashionable brand of clothing (not a new

one)A new restaurant in an area popular for eating out

1.Which strategy from the reading would you use ?2.Would you use viral or stealth marketing ?


1. Answers will vary. Suggested answers:

• A car with a completely new kind of engine: Paragraph 5 says thatinformative advertising is for new products. Persuasive, comparative, and reminder would be difficult because there would be few if any products to compare with.

• A popular and fashionable brand of clothing (not a new one): Paragraph 8 says that reminder advertising is useful for products later in life. Persuasive / comparative may work.

• A new restaurant in an area popular for eating out: Perhaps persuasive (or comparative) advertising. Persuasive is stated in paragraph 6 to be useful where there are many companies with the same kind of product.


Before You Speak

You will hear a professor giving students some advice about their assignments.

The assignment is to plan a stealth or viral marketing campaign.

Listen and take notes in the middle column on page 35. Then listen again and write the logical connectives you hear in the right-hand column.


What does the professor say about the message ? Logical Connectives

Point 11. Must be interesting

Point 22. Must be an easy way for people to get the message

Point 2 Strategy 1 1. have a reason to talk to strangers(pretend to be a tourist, ask someone to take a picture)

Point 2 Strategy 2 2. put stickers on lamp posts

Point 11. First

Point 22. Second

Point 2 Strategy 1 1. One

2. Another (idea)


Focused Speaking Expressing Relationship between Ideas Just like the professor you hear, you should use signals and

logical connectives in your talks. This will make the organizational structure, and the

relationships between ideas, clear. 1.Work with a partner. Choose one of the ideas and brainstorm.

Three reasons to buy a productThree things a business can make people want to buy a productThree things a website can do to make people want to buy a

product


2. Complete the outline about the topic you choose on page 36.

marketing. Now use your knowledge of the content, vocabulary and

academic skills presented throughout unit to plan a campaign using stealth and viral marketing.

You will give a short talk explaining your campaign to other students.
