I. Read and translate the following text in the written form.

Advertising and its History.

To advertise means to tell people publicly about a product or service in order to persuade them to buy it. Advertising – the techniques and practices used to bring products, services or opinions to public notice for the purpose of persuading the public to respond in a certain way toward what is advertised. Most advertising involves promoting a good that is for sale, but similar methods are used to encourage people to drive safely, to support various charities, or to vote for political candidates. In many countries advertising is the most important source of income for the media through which it is conducted. The media are all the organizations, such as television, radio, and newspapers, that provide information for the public. In the ancient and medieval world such advertising that existed was conducted by word of mouth. The first step toward modern advertising came with the development of printing in the 15-th and 16-th centuries. In the 17-th century weekly newspapers in London began to carry advertisements, and by 18-th century such advertising was flourishing. The great expansion of business in the 19-th century was accompanied by the growth of an advertising industry; it was that century, primarily in the United States, that saw the establishment of advertising agencies.

What is a Corporation?

 

A business corporation is an institution established for the purpose of making profit. It is formed as a result of the efforts of one or more persons called promoters. Corporation is operated by individuals. Their shares of ownership are represented by stock-certificates. A person who owns stock-certificates is called stockholder.

Stockholders indirectly control the affairs of a corporation by electing the directors. They form a corporation’s board of directors.

There are several advantages of the corporate form of ownership. The first is the ability to attract financial resources. The next advantage is the corporation attracts a large amount of capital it can invest it in plants, equipment and research. And the third advantage is that a corporation can offer higher salaries and thus attract talented managers and specialists.

There are different forms of corporations such as a private corporation, a nonprofit corporation and a public service corporation.

A private corporation is established by private citizens for a business and profit.

A nonprofit corporation is organized for a social, charitable or educational purpose. Usually such corporation does not issue stocks and is nonprofit. If there is a profit it is reinvested in the company rather than distributed to private stockholders.

Finally, a public service corporation (also called a public utility) is generally a private company that furnishes an essential public service. Electric, gas and water companies are examples.
