Describe an advertisement you remember well
You should say:
Where you saw it;
When you saw it;
What it was about;
Why you remember it well.

The first one I can think of is an ad that Apple made for its Home app. The app can let you control any smart home device234 as long as it works with an iPhone. Simply speaking, it’s an app that makes life really easy.
If I remember right, several months ago, I was watching a TV show at home. During a commercial break235, I noticed this ad. It starts with the iPhone’s normal ringtone236. Then the AI host Siri greets237 the hostess by saying “good morning” and opens the curtain for her. The girl then controls her home with Siri. She dims the light238 with her cell phone and adjusts the temperature on the thermostat239. She even controls lots of home devices after she leaves the house.
It was only a one-minute commercial240, but it really interested me. It perfectly introduced Apple’s new app and their smart home devices. I’d love to have a smart home. I could use my smartphone to control all the appliances. For example, when I’m almost home, I could remotely241 turn on the lights and the air conditioner. It’s cool just to think about it. So the ad really left a mark on me242. In the future, I definitely hope I can have a smart home like the one in the commercial.
