26、oined the club. I was asked to do a new project last week. On Friday morning on my way to work, I suddenly remembered that I had spent the past six weeks without considering that I had a weeks vacation planned during that time.

27、 that I was not paying enough attention to my driving and I did not come to a complete stop at the stop sign in front of a school.

33、aughed at 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 C 【小 题 1】 B 【小题 1】 C Copywriting is the art of sending a message in writing, especially in advertisements, for the purpose(目的 ) of persuading someone to do something. This is especially true when writing descriptive(描述性的 ) copy. Why Because customers（顾客） senses dont wor

34、k on paper. They only work in person. Thats why copywriters have to create a sensory experience for their customers through their words.

35、ful descriptions should fill the gap of what customers would see, hear, smell, taste or feel as if they were standing before the product. Successful descriptions should also draw customers attention and create an actual event as if they could be right there. Do you make cinnamon rolls(肉桂卷 )？ You wou

36、ldnt want to describe them simply as “delicious” or “smell great”. Instead, youd want to bring your customers to the experience of enjoying them.

37、 of these excellent rolls begins to float in the air, your nose will start to feel excited and youll immediately know they are worth the wait. When writing descriptive copy, choose the senses that are most proper and focus on them. If describing food, certainly youll think about not only what youre

38、tasting, but also what you smell and see. If youre writing travel copy, youll focus on sights, sounds as well as feelings. Your goal is to have your readers close their eyes and imagine they are in the same experience as you are. 【小题 1】 The purpose of copywriting is to . A create a pleasant experien
