ANSWER
1. The product that it promotes is a mouthwash

2. Yes, they gave as some fact about the product such as the when it was first time they \\ sold the product and what it was used for. For example: Not popular until the 1920’s when it was marked as the cure for certain medical issue (bad breath, cold, sore throat EVEN dandruff) .As well it was first sold in 1895

3. You could see it target for women’s as they put image of the women so that the audience would identify who is aimed for as well the copy tells the audience it for women’s as could see “most of the girls has set were married “as this show us that the product has aimed for girl’s you are getting married.

4. It attempting to appeal to women by affiliation as they used “friends” as all her friends are getting married but she is not so meant she might lose her friendship

5. The persuasive language techniques that use fact and strong word such as “tragic and grace”

 6. The suggesting about societies values at the time was not fair to women but really good for  men and it was really sexist .


7 .I think the people depicted in this ad represent typical people from the 1920s because  many women were no equally treated as women as we did expected this

    2. What facts are given in the actual advert?
    3. Good example used, but you haven't copied the quote down correctly.
    5. Another good example, but why is "tragic" a persuasive word?
    6. Well done, you are the first person to comment on the idea of sexism!

    Thushan, a very good piece of work. It shows you understand the adverts well.
