there was In particular the leading car and the one that eventually won was almost constantly on the screen it was painted to look like a packet of well known cigarettes Not only that but the car was on more than one occasion referred to by the commentator 评论员 not by the name of the driver or the motor company but by the name of the product However the football team that I support is not allowed to wear shirts advertising anything when their matches are being televised The rule preventing sportsmen and sportswomen from carrying advertisements on television is a good one Keep it and do it To take one example what is the effect I wonder on the young and old of the apparent connection between cigarette smoking and an exciting sport like motor racing L H Gray London Sir What a ridiculous situation our television companies find themselves in with regard to sport and advertising I watched a televised football match in which the players did not carry any advertisements on their shirts and yet there was advertising all around the ground Do the TV producers think we viewers are blind or something And when a well known international player was interviewed after the match both he and the interviewer referred by name to the make ups firm and as if that were not enough the sports item that followed was the National Bank Golf Tournament Advertising is all around us every day Long live advertising I say and let the television companies recognize it and allow football players athletes racing drivers and others to wear sponsors 赞助公司 advertisements At least we would all know where we were Mrs R P Laing Bristol 1 L H Gray would like to see A advertising officially forbidden from televised sport B cigarette advertisements made illegal C football teams wear shirts advertising certain products D the law forbidding commercials will come into effect soon 2 Mrs Laing believes that A sportsmen should be allowed to carry advertising on TV B advertising cigarettes should be officially forbidden at football match C advertising on television should be forbidden D golf tournaments should not be sponsored by banks 3 Both Gray and Laing agree that A sportsmen should be allowed to advertise on TV B TV sport should allow advertising except for drink and cigarette C TV companies must get rid of their double standards D sports commentators should be allowed to advertise B When you feel tired how do you relax Drink coffee take a bath do some exercise or play some music and have a dance For dance music fans and night club lovers the world famous English DJ disco jockey Sasha will bring them the world s finest dance music He is coming to Guangzhou Beijing and Shanghai on November 18 20 as part of his world tour in support of his new CD One of the main roles of music

music moved into new places called discos The music was faster had more bass 低音乐器 and started to become more electronic Disco music began to develop in the US and around Europe By the 1980s the music became much faster and even more electronic In the 1990s clubs took over discos DJs mixed other people s music Club dance rhythms became a major part of popular music Club dance music has different
