Do you think having a Professional sports team is good for a city? Why?
YanıtlaSilProfessional sports teams are good for a city.Because it does advertising the city,raises the economy , allows for new job opportunities , increases the feeling of unity and solidarity among people, helps people to get over their shyness.For example Trabzonspor is a football team in the city of Trabzon.When Trabzonspor plays in the European Cup , Europeans hear the name of the city of Trabzon,get positive impression and keep in mind trabzon's name. Thus,Eurapen Cup's matches make the city's advertising. When its jerseys,cups,wefts etc are sold,the economy of city increases.When Trabzonspor have a match at Avni Aker Stadium in Trabzon, the fans of Trabzon focus on the match.Thus,people learn solidarity. Finally,the city's sports teams are important for the city in every respect.

All people focus on it.We learn, can we transfuse blood to other people. It is very important. Because if we have health problems, it will affects badly who use our blood. If somebody need and use our blood, we wiil take a message from Kızılay. At that time, we are the happiest people in the World.
Why do famous people give money to charity? Do you really do it help others?
YanıtlaSilSome famous people really give money to help others. They don't make advertising. They help secretly to other people after investing enough in their lives. They have a positive opinion. For example Didier Drogba helps many Africans. He has foundations. He is helpful man. However some famous people just do it for advertising. They just do it for the fans. These days there is ice bucket challenge. Famous people joined the campaign and they made a donation to charity. Rich people should help to poor people. it is important for poor people.

YanıtlaSilSome famous people have more money and they just want to share with poor people. They don't want to advertise theirselves.
Unfortunately others help this people to stand out in the world. Their only goal is to attract their fans.
Advertising Products
