  1. 3. Men's adverts can show women. How are the women represented to make you realise that the target audience is women? Do the adverts tell you that men do not care about how their breath smells?
    4. What line of appeal do the ads use?
    5. Ain't = aren't. The quote you used, what is it an example of?
    7. Correct the grammatical errors. Your sentence appears incomplete.
