"Five thousand! That's about how many advertisements you are exposed to in one day if you live in a metropolitan area. Researchers' estimates of the actual number vary from three hundred to six thousand, but everyone knows that ads are
everywhere. Advertising goes down the street with us; it's on trains, planes, and buses. It shouts at us at sporting events from
the banners on display and the electronic scoreboards. Advertising takes the form of brand names and logos on our clothing
and accessories. You can't even turn on the television or check out your favorite website without watching an advertisement. At
every point, advertising shouts, whispers, or cajoles us to 'Look at me! Buy me!' But how exactly do advertisements do it? As it
turns out, just a few formats characterize the majority of ads."

In a 10-12 sentence response-style paragraph, explore the degree to which you agree or disagree with faulkner’s message. “i believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. he is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. the poet's, the writer's, duty is to write about these things. it is his privilege to man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. the poet's voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to him endure and prevail” (faulkner 773-775).
