Module: Reading Pulse 2
Saved By An MP3 Player

Sophie Frost, a schoolgirl form England, felt very lucky when her grandmother gave
her an MP3 player as a present. She didn’t know just how lucky she was, however. When an
unexpected accident happened a few days later, the MP3 player probably saved her life!
14-year-old Sophie was going for a walk with her friend, Mason Billington, when it
started raining. The two friends took shelter from the rain under a tree and were sitting
together when lightning struck. The lightning hit them both and they lost consciousness.
Then Mason woke up and carried Sophie to the nearest road in order to get help. A car
stopped and took them to hospital. Sophie had some burns on her chest and legs. She also
had some damage to her eyes and ears, but fortunately she quickly recovered.
How did Sophie’s MP3 player prevent her from having serious injuries? When the
accident happened, she wasn’t listening to music on the player, but was wearing it around her
neck. Doctors believe that the lightning travelled through the wire of the MP3 player instead
of through Sophie’s body. Even though she was lucky this time, one thing’s for sure. The
next time there’s a storm, she and her friend won’t sit underneath a tree!

Samples of advertisements
What is an advertisement?
An advertisement (often shortened to advert or ad) is the
promotion of a product, brand or service to a viewership in
order to attract interest, engagement and sales. Advertisements
come in many forms, from copy to interactive video, and have
evolved to become a crucial feature of the app marketplace. An
advertisement is different from other types of marketing because
it is paid for, and because the creator of an advert has total
control over the content and message.

Read the text below.
BE WISE THINK TWICE

We are constantly surrounded by advertisements from billboards to television
commercials. Everywhere we turn, we are bound on to see advertisements. Do
advertisements give us accurate information of the true worth of the product advertised as
good as they claim to be? How often have you gone back feeling cheated after a shopping
trip? The fact is many of us do and many of us are like to get cheated again!
So what can we do to protect ourselves from being cheated? To begin with, never give
in to sales gimmicks. If you are told that the price is only ‘right now’, walk away!
Salespeople do not want to think about the product, there is a good chance that you will
reconsider buying it.
Apart from that, practise self-control and avoid making decisions that you may regret
later. Before you go shopping, prepare a shopping list of the things that you need to buy. Set
a spending limit do that you do not buy things that you may regret later. In this way, you will
spend within your budget.
Always do a research on the product from buying it. Compare prices and know the
value of the product that you buy. Do your homework so that it is worth buying it.
Being a smart consumer is not just about getting a good deal. It also means spending
within your limits, knowing your rights as a consumer and being an informed consumer.
False advertisements can appear anywhere. Take responsibility for your spending habits. Be
a wise and smart consumer.
