Define the term, advertisement. Look at the advertisements below. Which communicates most to you? Why? Advertisement 1: A silver pickup truck parked in the middle of an African plain next to an elephant. Advertisement 2: A blue car on a blue background. The top reads, "Well done to Audi and B M W for winning the beauty contest. From the winner of the 2006 International Engine of the Year." The Subaru logo is in the corner.

Answer:

Advertisement: a notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy.

Advertisement 2 speaks to me more because there is nothing in the ad that makes me wonder, why did I watch that? or why was that in this ad? The ad clearly states that the "Audi and BMW won the beauty contest from the winner of the 2006 International Engine of the Year."
