According to Heater Timmons in the article, it seems that Tata Nano, the cheapest car in the world recently, has caused huge controversy as well as innovation. With the rapid development of technology and science, the quality of automobiles becomes much better. People used to spend a large amount of money purchasing high quality cars. However, the tiny, cheap and fuel-efficient vehicles grow to be much more popular around the world owing to the global economic recession and the awareness of environmental protection. The debut of Tata Nano especially causes the revolution of both automotive industry and people’s life in developing countries such as India. Moreover, the concept of the global market has changed since the Nano appears. Although Heater appears to disapprove of Nano, he still agrees the advantages it brings to the world market.
As far as I am concerned, the invention of Nano not only improves the way we transport but also provides us the new idea to think deeply. I approve of Nano because it is more convenient and greener than automobiles we drive now. Nano provides the chance for people who live in developed or poor countries moving on to cars instead of motorcycles and bicycles. Nevertheless, the influence of Nano on the world remains suspicion and uncertainty. As long as the flawless and safety standard is built, I believe that Nano will be a good solution for the decline of industry. It goes without saying that people will get confused and surprised about new inventions or revolutions in the beginning. The doubt will be eradicated if people give them more time. To sum up, we should keep positive attitude toward Tata Nano. (278 words)

When I finish reading the article, I feel surprised. Even advertisements which can see everywhere in our life has play a special role. It’s hard to believe that two contrast thoughts can be connected. General speaking, the intention of advertisements is to urge consumer to buy alcohol. However, advertising about drinking responsibly make people drinking in moderation.
The campaigns which describes in the article not only use modern technology but also the emotions between human in order to encourage people take care of their own health. The article highlights the importance of responsibility and making correct decisions. People who like to drink need to prepare themselves to lose their health. Therefore, when they see alcohol ads and the warning with them, they may think deeply before they purchase wine. The article also gives many examples that emphasize the influence on the campaigns. I’m impressed by the example that even cell phone users can send themselves text messages intended to reinforce a moderation mode. The whole campaigns are another better way to persuade people into stopping drinking alcohol rather than forced way like penalty.
In my opinion, alcohol abuse is one of serious problems of society. People should make effort to prevent the problem from getting worse. The major marketers who join the campaigns are willing to think more about health instead of their profit. Both people and participants of campaigns can all benefit from the reminder to think before drinking. Although there are few disadvantages about the campaign, alcoholics may not respond to it because it doesn’t have legal sanctions. Therefore, the campaign may not be effective in Taiwan. In conclusion, the most important method to solve the problem of excessive drinking is will power of people. (287 words)
