１１５、The following appeared in a memo¹ from the sales manager of Eco-Power, a company that manufactures tools and home appliances.
　　"Many popular radio and television commercials use memorable² tunes³ and song lyrics⁴ to call attention to the products being advertised. Indeed, a recent study of high school students showed that 85 percent could easily recognize the tunes used to advertise leading soft drinks and fast-food restaurants. Despite our company’s extensive advertising⁵ in magazines during the past year, sales of our home appliances declined. Therefore, to boost company profits, we should now switch to advertisements featuring a distinctive⁶ song."
