reading and interpreting

1 twelve years at school and three years at university, teachers banging on about opportunities in the big wide world beyond our sheltered life as students, and what do i find?

this shows the informality of an incomplete sentence in the first part, the use of an informal expression (banging on) and a rhetorical question to the reader (what do i find?)

2 try as i might to stay cheerful, all i ever get is hassle, sometimes with people (especially boys, god, when will they grow up?) …

this has the use of an informal word (hassle), an informal exclamation (god) and a question to the reader (when will they grow up?)

3 actually, i had my eye on the course at the london school of economics (lse).

here there is a discourse marker typical of speech (actually) and an informal phrase (had my eye on). 4 i kind of understand it, and not just because my degree is in economics.

here ―kind of‖ is a sort of discourse marker of informal speech (showing something is general, vague or not definite).

5 i wanted something in finance and investments, because you know, maybe with a job like that, i

could use my degree.

this has a discourse marker of informal speech (you know).

6 ... it‘s true, he really did seem to have three hands.

again here is a discourse marker of informal speech (it‘s true).

7 i talked to him about ... well, about pretty well everything …

this has another discourse marker of informal speech (well) and an informal phrase (pretty well).

3.Many products for sale seem to scream at us, "Buy me! Buy me!" Advertising is a big busin ess in our world with many products competing for our attention. Think of the last time you boug ht clothes. You probably noticed the variety of colors, patterns, fabrics and brands you could choo se from. Which kind of soft drink would you like to have today or what kind of computer do you want? Advertisers are skilled in the art of making their products look the best to appeal to our se nses. But products aren't always what they seem. Sometimes advertising is deceptive and as cons umers ,we must be careful about what we choose to buy. It is important to learn to compare prod ucts and identify our purpose in purchasing the things we need. But the good thing about advertising is that it helps people to make decisions and refine thei r choices. In the United States, the Ad Council creates timely public service messages to the nation. Th eir purpose is to raise awareness of public problems that citizens can respond to. Inspiring ads ca use individuals to take action and even save lives.
