The year is 1829 when David G. Yuengling moved from Germany to Pennsylvania and began his own brewery. At this time David Yuengling named his company Eagle Brewery.

In the first paragraph there is no referencing to the fact there is an ad that the paper is based on. The second paragraph describes the ad, but does not give any reason for these descriptions. The argument for this paper is never clearly stated and must be inferred by the reader. As the paper progresses it starts to get off track and by page four the paper is no longer talking about the freedom and independence a child needs. Instead, it talks about asthma and the probability of males and females getting the disorder.

In this discourse analysis essay I will be critically analysing the above advert for LEGO by paying close attention to the purpose, structure, audience and linguistic features of the advertisement. I will begin by looking at the purpose of the advert (why it was created), structure (how the adverts body copy is set out) and audience (the target market) before I move on to unpacking the linguistic features. This advertisement was published around the late 90’s and its main purpose is to advertise LEGO. To catch people’s attention, so that people would look at the advert, the designers used bright, bold and primary colours in addition the background of the advert is also plain as not to distract the reader from the LEGO or the child (which take up a large portion of the page).Another major factor in the appeal of the advert is that the child looks happy and content playing with the LEGO which perks the readers interest as they now want to identify why. All these elements along with the bold heading draw the reader to the advert and thus the purpose is complete: to advertise.
For this assignment, I chose to analyze the Pop Chips print advertisement. Pop Chips are known to be the organic, more healthier, and also more pricier potato chips. This specific Pop Chips advertisement features celebrity singer and spokeswoman, Katy Perry. The advertisements slogan, which is smack dead at the top of the print ad states “Love without the handles”.

Arrowhead, named after the Arrowhead Springs in the San Bernardino Mountains, effectively displays its advertisements by taking the viewer through the journey of a pure droplet of water.
In life there are two types of people, successful ones and unsuccessful ones. The average person wants to be successful, no one wants to be a failure, everyone wants to succeed.

Expository Essay Advertisers today affect kids daily lives greatly. Companies target kids because they are the “spenders” of the household through market research and ads. Some studies suggest that we see five thousand advertisements a day, each for a product or sales item.
