翻译：

To invite eminent persons to help make advertisements should be regarded as one of the best
advertising strategies and could, of course, produce a spectacular(powerful) VIP effect,
privided that those celebrities are perfectly willing to accept the invitation and, more
importantly, the products to be advertised are genuine and of fair prices. Sometimes, while a
commodity is of inferior quality, the advertisement is full of words lavishing praise on it, if a
celebrity shows up as an image agent for such a product, the advertisement could, if any, be
temporarily successful before it turns the brand of the product in question notorious and, more
disastrously, ruins the reputation of the eminent person thereafter. So, the famous are well
advised to think more than twice before they agree to appear on the commercial.

People who are energetic, happy, and relaxed are less likely to catch a cold than those who are
depressed, nervous, or angry. When the brain is “happy”, it sends messages to our organs that
help keep the body healthy and sound. Your chance of developing the common cold,
pneumonia, or even cancer may very well be decreased by keeping your brain in a healthy
state. In addition, happy and relaxed people are prone to better health practices than their
negative and stressed counterparts. They are more likely to get plenty of sleep and to engaged
in regular exercise, and have been shown to have lower levels of certain stress hormones.
