6 . If you're one of those people who dream about snowy mountains, warm fires, and hot springs, here are four unique places to spend your winter holiday.

Tromso, Norway

It might seem a bit crazy to go to such a cold country in winter, but just think about all that beautiful scenery and the great Northern Lights you'll get to see. Enjoying the aurora borealis (北极光)can be the most memorable event of the year and the tickets will be pretty cheap as it is off-season.

London, the UK

This may not be the most original or cheapest vacation place, but there is a certain charm (魅力)that takes over the whole city in winter, especially if you plan your trip around Christmas. London is a great city to celebrate the festive season. You can go ice-skating, enjoy a traditional pantomime (童话剧), take part in a carol concert, check out London's fantastic shops…It can be a truly unforgettable trip!

Kiruna, Sweden

If you've always dreamt of spending a few nights in the Ice Hotels, then head to Kiruna. Its Ice Hotel is located just a few miles out of the city. This beautiful hotel is filled with ice art and has 80 rooms made of ice and snow taken from the Arctic Circle. Every spring it melts (融化)and has to be fully rebuilt in winter! So don't worry about how many people have slept in that bed before you—it really doesn't matter.

Reykjavik. Iceland

Reykjavik has become very popular during the last few years due to the filming of Game of Thrones there. However, this place has a lot to offer. Natural hot springs, long hikes will make you fall in love with this cold and beautiful city.

7 . In the past decades, TV advertising (广告) has been one of the most powerful forms of advertisement. Basically it is a mixture of both video and sound advertising messages. Some people believe that TV advertising is more powerful than other advertising means such as magazines, websites, radio stations, and newspapers. Television was once considered to be the “king” of advertising media at a time.

A TV advertising company always tries to catch the attention of as many people as possible. And TV advertising conquers its viewers for various reasons. It allows a product to reach a large number of people, both at local as well as at national levels. In addition, it takes a short time for a product to reach the public as well. TV advertising can target (瞄准) a large number of local families with local cable (有线电视) network channels and independent stations. Various audience like housewives, young people and children are targeted through different channels like TV series, cartoons, shopping programme, etc. Before a product is advertised on TV, complete market research is done in order to know the needs of various customers to the product. Then TV helps get more detailed message with sounds, images and actions rapidly across to TV viewers, providing easier choices to the customers to choose the desired product.

Although we admit the fact that TV advertising works better over others in many aspects, TV advertising are not always the best choice for both companies and viewers. It has its negative (消极的) side sometimes. TV advertising is usually short, thus they do not express much information about the product. Besides, making TV advertising involves complicated steps. Producing it involves hiring an advertising agency, video editors, actors and writers, so an advertising agency need to think over the high expense of making TV advertising. Therefore, TV advertising with rich sounds, images and actions can mislead or persuade people to buy some products they don’t really need.
