  六级英语冲刺阅读练习原文

  Other "tricks of the trade" are also used. Because low-frequency sounds can mask higherfrequency sounds. advertisers filter out any noises that may drown out the primary message.In addition, the human voice hasmore auditory (听觉的) impact in che middle frequencyranges. Advertisers electronically vary voice sounds so that they stay within such afrequency band. Another approach is to write the script so that lots of consonants(辅音) areused, because people are more aware of consonants than vowel (元音) sounds. Finally,advertisers try to begin commercials with sounds that are highly different from those of theprogramming within which the commercial is buried. Because people become adapted to thetype of sounds coming from programming. a dramatic change in sound quality draws viewerattention. For example. notice how many commercials begin with a cheerful song of some type.

  The attention-getting property of commercials can be seen by observing one-to-two-year-oldchildren who happen to be playing around a television set. They may totally ignore theprogramming. However. when a commercial comes on.their attention is immediately drawn toit because of its dramatic sound quality.
