(Your own constructed answers will fetch you better marks.) 25 Advertising is essentially the art of communication. As such, its origin can be traced right back to the origin of the species. "Advertising colouration" is a familiar biological phrase denoting the colours developed by certain animals to make them stand out against their natural background. It is the direct opposite of camouflage. There is always a message in these colours, such as; "keep away, "mind your step", "darling won't you care for a dance?" While camouflage is tricky and timed, "advertising" is honest, confidant, and forthright, as far as the world of nature goes. In human life, advertising through the mouth must have begun with the beginning of commerce. The tradition is still kept alive by hawkers and street vendors in our towns and villages. As regards advertising through the written word there is archaeological evidence that it was being practiced at least 3,000 years ago. An advertisement offering a gold coin as a reward to anyone tracing out a runaway slave was unearthed in the ruins of Thebes and is computed to be as old as the third millennium B.C. It was the prototype of our "lost and found" classified ad that was painted on a wall. Questions: (i) What was advertising? (ii) What does the phrase "advertising colouration" mean? (iii) What is the difference between camouflage and advertising? (iv) When did verbal and written advertising begin in human life? (v) Suggest a suitable title for the passage. (vi) Make a precis of the passage. 5. Write a dialogue between two friend on upcoming elections.
