Relationship between media images and the external reality

Nowadays, we can see many advertisements hyperbolic in the society. The city is flooded with supplementary class advertisements, so many parents hope that their children can better than others, they need to have piano classes, swimming classes...study more and more. When they grow up, they hope children have a good result in their school exam, supplementary classes are the most suitable place for improve themselves to have good result in public examinations, so that they can go to the University. All the supplementary classes’ advertisements will shape into a variety of teacher image, such as “kung fu” tutors, they will tell you that when you finish their classes, you will know all the special skills and you can be the best. In many case, some teachers guess the exam topic correctly. For example, in 2007, one of the teachers guessed the CE Chinese writing topic was cold lemon tea correctly. After that year, so many people want to join his classes, since they believed that the teacher can help them to handle the public examination.

In earlier have a news about Modern Education invite YY Lam to join them, his annual salary is $85000000.We can see that the education industry make a lot of money, because of all the parents that their children can be the best. Both advertisements need to attract the attention of parents, told them that they can satisfy their needs. I think that so many media images are come from our needs.

  1. Dear Audrey, The example is interesting and specific to local context. The topic is about "relationship between media images and the external reality". You can place stronger emphasis on how professional image of all those local private tutors is constructed i advertisements, making people believe that their courses worth taking.
