20、rt their families have “enough“ food to eat, while only 2 percent say they “often“ do not have enough to eat.

Lucky Strike sold cigarettes to women first by using the slogan “Reach for a Lucky instead of a sweet“ and later by describing cigarettes as “torches of f

30、reedom,“ as symbols of modern values. Advertisements helped to transform American values. They made Americans aware of such “problems“ as halitosis(口臭 )and strange smell of body.
