No one knows for sure when advertising first started.It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them.That led to the concept of specializationwhich means that people would specializeor focuson doing one specific job.

Let’s take a man we’ll call Mr.Fielderfor example.He did everything connected with farming.He planted seedstended the fieldsand harvested and sold his crops.At the same timehe did many other jobs on the farm.Howeverhe didn’t make the bricks for his housecut his trees into boardsmake the plows(), or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs.Insteadhe got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.

Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr.Plowright.Using what he knew about farming and working with ironMr.Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier.Mr.Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows.Perhapshe thoughtother farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.

How did Mr.Plowright let people know what he was doingWhyhe advertisedof course.First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers.That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door.It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr.Plowright and his really good plows.

Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago.Even before most people could readthey understood such signs.Shopkeepers would carve into stoneclayor wood symbols for the products they had for sale.

A mediumin advertising talkis the way you communicate your message.You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols.The second medium was audioor soundalthough that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today.Originallyjust the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrumentsuch as a bellwere used to get people’s attention.

A crierin the historical senseis not someone who weeps easily.It is someoneprobably a manwith a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city.In ancient Egyptshopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products.Often this earliest form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods.Perhaps the crier described the goodsexplained where they came fromand praised their quality.His job wasin other wordsnot too different from a TV or radio commercial in today’s world.

As the father of a student, I have experienced first hand what a great teacher is. My son was in the 4th grade last year, and he had a teacher called Miss Green. I believe that when he is an adult he will surely look back on her as the best teacher he has ever had.

My son has attention deficit disorder(注意力缺损症) that makes it a little more difficult for him to learn. She was able to change her teaching methods for him so that he could keep up with the rest of the class. As a result, he got straight As on many subjects. She regarded her class as a family and they even had their own class song. She would often have them sing it to encourage them and develop a team spirit for them. When she saw that they were no longer listening carefully to what she was teaching, she would have them close their textbooks, stand up all around the room and throw around a small football. This helped them clear their minds and then focus on the lesson again. Besides, she was quick to reply to any phone calls or emails from us and got rid of our worries about children quickly.

When my son went to the 5th grade this year, we happened to pass her classroom. When she saw my son, her face lit up(露出喜色) and she came out and hugged him. She generally loves all of the children in her classroom and that love really shows. I can only pray(祈祷) that my son will continue to get teachers just like her for the rest of his school years.
