Sample of Hortatory Exposition: Should Ads be banned from TV Programs?

I am writing to complain about ads on TV. There are so many ads, especially during my favorite programs. I think they should be stopped for a number of reasons.

First, ads are a nuisance. They go on for a long time and there are so many. Sometimes there seems to be more ads than programs.

Second, ads are a bad influence on people. They try to encourage people to buy unhealthy food like beers, soft drinks, candies, and chips. In other words, they make people want things they do not really need and cannot afford.

Finally, ads play role in programs people watch. That is because there are lots of ads in popular programs that a lot of people watch. Some programs which are not so popular get stopped because they do not attract enough ads, even though those programs may be someone’s favorite.
