(1) In everyday advertising, one observes many obvious attempts to package and sell products and ideas (toothpaste, aspirin, pre

sidential candidates) through clever influence tactics. (2) Many people claim that such blatant attempts at persuasion are so pitifully obvious that they are not much affected by them. (3) Nevertheless, the sales of Benson & Hedges 100s cigarettes increased sevenfold during a four-year period of heavy advertising. (4) The Mattel Toy Company increased company size twenty-four-fold after it began to advertise extensively on television. (5) Grape-Nuts, a venerable but nearly forgotten cereal, experienced a sudden 30 percent increase in sales when a well-known natural foods enthusiast began plugging this rather bland cereal. (6) And there are many other advertising success stories as well. (7) It appears that tremendous numbers of consumers are influenced by advertising, despite their claims to the contrary. what is the main idea?

Answer:  (7) It appears that tremendous numbers of consumers are influenced by advertising, despite their claims to the contrary.

Explanation:

The main idea of this passage is that advertising works despite people's claims to the contrary.

This is the main idea because every other sentence centres around this one with the first sentence attempting to explain how it works.

The second sentence then attempts to disprove it while the third, fourth, fifth and the sixth show show evidence of its truthfulness.

Okay, think of an essay or paragraph as like stating your opinion. Here’s how to break it down so it’s a little easier:

Paragraph 1 - Introduction.
Provide background information on the topic. Give about 1-2 sentences on what the topic is about, and for the 3rd sentence, put in a statement that IS your argument.
For example, “French fries are the best food ever because they are delicious.”

Paragraph 2 - Conflict.
Elaborate on your argument/thesis statement. Since that seems to be your conflict, describe something hard you’ve been through. What was hard about it? How did it affect you?

Paragraph 3 - Response
Elaborate more on how the conflict affected you personally. If you can, try to connect it to a bigger picture or theme.
For example, “I broke my leg in middle school as a result of a basketball injury. Therefore, we should eliminate school sports because they cause injuries.”
It’s a reach, but that’s the entire point of connecting to a bigger theme.

Paragraph 4 - Explain Response
Here is where you’re going to connect your response in paragraph 3 to a bigger picture. Talk about the outcome and effect you showed in paragraph 3.

The questions mentioned should help you- break it down in a way that you understand. I tried to simplify this for you in the easiest way possible, I hope it helps and good luck :)
