Class 7 Civics Chapter 7 Understanding Advertising Exercise Questions and Answers

Question 1.
What do you understand by the word brand? List two reasons why building brands is central to advertising?
Answer:

  1. By the word ‘brand’ we mean to stamp a product with a particular name or sign.
  2. Building brands is central in advertising because of the following reasons:
    • It differentiates the product from other products in the market.
    • The branded product (daal) does not confuse people with the other products (daal) in the open market.
    • In other words, a brand distinguishes one product from other products.
  3. Advertisers attach special values to the product for their brands. These brand values are conveyed through the use of visuals and words to create an image that makes people buy them.

Question 2.
Choose two of your favourite print advertisements. Now, look at each of these and answer the following questions :
(a) What visuals and text are being used in these advertisements to attract my attention?
Answer:
Advt: Rin Supreme
Visual: Two boys are shown in a very happy mood to attract my attention.
Texts :

  1. Aaj Kee Achhhi Khabar
  2. Rin Superme Bar Ban Gaya Surf Exel Bar

Advt. : Britannia Good day Biscuit

  2. Good Food value for the beginning of Good Day is being promoted in the advertisement of Britannia’s Good Day Biscuit.

(c) Who is this advertisement speaking to and who is it leaving out?
Answer:
(1) In Rin Supreme, the advertisement is speaking to women especially mothers. It is leaving out fathers in particular and the young males.

(2) In Britannia Good Day Biscuit, the advertisement is speaking to all — children, young and olds. It is not specializing any category of people so it is not leaving out anyone.

(d) If you could not afford the brand that is being advertisement how would you feel?
Answer:
If I wouldn’t afford the brand that is being advertised, I would feel that money is the only hurdle in between the Good Day Biscuits, Rin Supreme, and me, otherwise, I would have bought these.

Question 3.
Can you explain two ways in which you think advertising affects issues of equality in a democracy?
Answer:
Branded products cost much more than those sold loose. It is because they include the costs of packaging and advertising. Whatever may be the reason, it is very difficult almost impossible for the large majority of people to buy such costly/branded products. Only a small group of high-class people, say wealthy people can afford to buy them. Here, the principle of equality is ignored. Advertising a product is a costly affair.

Only large companies can get their products advertised. So far small businessmen are concerned, they find it difficult to advertise their product because their income is small. They often have to sell their products in weekly markets and neighbourhood shops. Here, also the principle of equality is marred.

Question 4.
Making an advertisement. requires a lot of creativity. Let us imagine a situation in which a manufacturer has just made a new watch. She says that she wants to sell this watch to school children. She comes to your class and asks you all to create a brand name as well as an advertisement for the watch. Divide the class into small groups and each group creates an advertisement for this watch. Share it with the class.
[Hints: Space for the figure to be drawn by the students.]
Answer:
Students do this question themselves.
[Hints: For their convenience, a sample of the answer is given below.]
Class is divided into two groups :

Group A

  1. Brand name for watch —‘Time’
  2. Advertisement for watch—Time
  3. saves time — Be careful of Time’

Group B

  1. Brand name for watch — ‘Tinku’
  2. Advertisement for the watch: Tinku cares for the time.
