Soru 12 : In many ways, Hollywood seems to exemplify the most joyless aspects of capitalism. The 'industry', as it insists upon calling itself, packages artistic ideas and images as commodities and then values those commodities according to how they 'penetrate' markets. The system's worrying inefficiency, of course, is that studios never know what the public at large will want to buy. So films are tested in front of preview audiences, revised according to the audience's suggestions, tested again, and then marketed with a vigour directly proportionate to the test scores. There are two problems with this approach. The first is that the test-sample size is minimal but can determine a film's fate. The second is that by the time the test audience sees a film it's too late to change it very much anyway, particularly when twenty, fifty or a hundred million dollars has already been spent.
Cevap 12 : B
Çözüm 12 : Açıklama Soru köküne dikkat edildiğinde, " As we understand from the passage, the writer…. " (parçadan anladığımız gibi yazar…) sorulmaktadır.

Buradan yola çıkarak “B” şıkkının doğru olduğunu buluyoruz.

Soru 13 : As with all revolutions, the causes of the American Revolution which separated the original thirteen American colonies from Great Britain were social, economic and political and so inextricably interwoven that it is difficult to appraise them. First there was the distance from Great Britain and the environment of a new country which, whether they willed it or not, had gradually over a period of 150 years turned Englishmen into Americans. The older stock was largely English but the bulk of them, as a contemporary historian commented,  “knew little of the mother country, having only heard of her as a distant kingdom, the rulers of which had in the preceding century persecuted and banished their ancestors to the woods of America”. With each generation and each move westward old contacts were broken. Furthermore, large groups of colonists had come from Germany, Ireland and other parts of Europe and had no ties with England and, in the case of the Irish, no affection.

Soru 15 :

The Renaissance originated in Italy for several

reasons. The most fundamental reason was that Italy

in the later Middle Ages was the most advanced

urban society in all of Europe. Unlike aristocrats north

of the Alps, Italian aristocrats customarily lived in

urban centres rather than in rural castles and

consequently became fully involved in urban public

affairs. Moreover, since the Italian aristocracy built its

palaces in the cities, the aristocratic class was less

sharply set off from the class of rich merchants than

in other European countries. Hence, whereas in

France or Germany most aristocrats lived on the

income from their lands while rich town dwellers,

called bourgeois in French, gained their living from

trade, in Italy so many town-dwelling aristocrats

engaged in banking or mercantile enterprises, and so

many rich mercantile families imitated the manners of

the aristocracy that, by the fourteenth and fifteenth

centuries, the aristocracy and upper bourgeoisie

were becoming virtually indistinguishable. For

instance, the noted Florentine family of the Medici,

which had emerged as a family of physicians (as the

name suggests), made its fortune in banking and

commerce, and rose into the aristocracy in the

fifteenth century. Obviously, social mobility as such

brought about a great demand for education in the

skills of reading and counting necessary to become a successful merchant, but the richest and most

prominent families sought above all to find teachers

who would impart to their sons the knowledge and

skills necessary in politics and public life.

 

It is suggested in the passage that, in the period

before the Renaissance, ----.

A) the aristocrats in Europe were indifferent to the

quality of education offered at schools

B) the Medici of Florence had been a poor

mercantile family with no skills in politics

C) France and Germany had many more

aristocratic families than Italy

D) European banking was completely monopolized

by the rich town-dwellers of France

E) no other European country had an urban society

as advanced as that of Italy

Soru 23 :

Flightless birds evolved from flying ancestors; there are about forty species in existence today. The best-known flightless birds are the ostrich, emu, cassowary, rhea and penguins. Most flightless birds evolved in the absence of predators, on islands, and lost the power of flight because they had few enemies. A notable exception, the ostrich, which lives in the African savannas, has claws on its feet to use as a weapon against predators. Two key differences between flying and flightless birds are the smaller wing bones of flightless birds and the absent (or greatly reduced) keel on their breastbone. The keel anchors muscles needed for wing movement. Flightless birds also have more feathers than flying birds. New Zealand has more species of flightless birds than any other country. One reason is that until the arrival of humans roughly 1000 years ago, there were no land mammals in New Zealand other than three species of bat; the main predators of flightless birds were larger birds. With the introduction of mammals (among them humans) to the habitats of flightless birds, many have become extinct, including the Great Auk, the Dodo, and the Moas. Flightless birds are the easiest to take care of in captivity because they do not have to be caged. Ostriches were once farmed for their decorative feathers. Today they are raised for meat and for their skins, which are used to make leather.

 

 

      One of the differences between the flying and the flightless birds is that ...............

 

A)     flightless birds have the smaller wing bones than flying birds 

B)     flying birds have more feathers than flightless birds

C)     flying birds have no keel and no claws

D)     flying birds are better hunters

E)     the number of flightless birds is more than flying birds

Soru 25 : Obesity is associated with a number of health risks, including Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma, and several forms of cancer. The increase in prevalence of obesity among children has led to a rise in obesity-related diseases in young populations. Type 2 diabetes, which was originally considered an adult disease, has increased dramatically in children and adolescents. Other health problems related to being overweight, previously seen mostly in adults, have increased among children, including cardiovascular diseases. While the causes of the rapid increase in obesity during the last decade are complex, researchers agree that the major contributing factor is excessive consumption of calories combined with insufficient physical activity. The ready availability of foods with high caloric content combined with the increased amount of time spent in office work, watching television, or playing computer games, is a relatively recent phenomenon.

Soru 27 :

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will soon be testing a controversial theory about the collapse of the World Trade Center towers. According to an analysis by a loading fire-safety expert, had the fire-proofing insulation on the towers' steel structures been thicker, the towers would have survived longer and might even have remained standing after they were hit by the hijacked planes. The work is being seized on by lawyers representing victims' families and insurance companies. If confirmed, it could also lead to changes in building codes. NIST is responsible for drawing up the final report on the towers' collapses and recommending if any changes are needed. It is widely accepted that the collapses were caused by the failure of the buildings' steel structure as it was weakened by the heat of the fires.

   

     As it is pointed out in the passage, it is

commonly recognized that the main cause for the collapse of the twin towers —.

 

      A)     will only be understood after the release of a detailed report by NIST

         B)     can never be established beyond doubt

         C)     was the weakening of the steel structure due to the heat of the fire

         D)     was not so much due to the heat of the fires as to the force of the impact of the hijacked planes

         E)      is of special interest to insurance companies

Soru 31 :

In this century, the wealth and success of nations will depend like never before on the ability to produce and use knowledge. Universities have long been instrumental in generating knowledge and ideas. But in an increasingly globalized world, and in the face of rapid scientific change, they will need to think about a set of new challenges and how best to prepare their students for the coming decades. Universities will need to teach a new kind of literacy, in which global awareness will play an important role. They also need to deal with the dilemmas posed by the accelerating pace of change brought on by scientific and technological advances. We are on the brink of once-in-human-history progress in combating disease through the application of modern science. Doctors will have at their disposal blood tests that will tell you with substantial predictive power how long you will live and from what diseases you are likely to suffer. The Internet and the application of information technology may well represent the most profound change in the way knowledge is disseminated since the printing press. We are close to understanding the first second of the history of the cosmos.

According to the passage, universities are under an obligation to ensure that their students ----.

A) have the chance to work alongside foreign students

B) are equipped to deal with the changing conditions of the coming decades

C) are introduced to international perspectives in every area of study

D)  are taught not specific facts as much as broad ways of thinking

Soru 42 :

The long-expected decline in the dollar is now well under way. For years economists have predicted that America's huge current-account deficit would eventually cause its currency to plunge. So far the dollar's slide has been fairly gradual: it is down by 13% in trade-weighted terms over the past year, though it has dropped by almost twice as much against the euro since its 2001 peak. As the decline seemed to pick up speed this week, John Snow, George Bush's Treasury Secretary, declared that he favours a 'strong dollar policy'. That was surely the wrong answer, even leaving aside the debatable issue of whether cabinet secretaries can influence the level of exchange tales. A weaker, not a stronger dollar, is what the world needs now - so long as policymakers elsewhere respond appropriately. America promoted a strong dollar throughout the 1990s, when inflation was still thought to be the main enemy. Today it makes less sense. Even after its recent slide, the dollar seems overvalued. Moreover, with ample space capacity in America, deflation looks a bigger risk than inflation.

 

    According to the passage, what has brought about the fall of the American dollar —.

 

         A)     is the erratic global fluctuations in exchange rates

         B)     is the enormous deficit experienced by the American economy

         C)     has been a persistent recession in the global economy

         D)     is the wrong economic policies introduced by John Snow, Treasury Secretary

         E)      is the unexpected rise in the value of the euro

Soru 45 : Government planners and social scientists from many countries are developing a number of strategies to help us adapt to global warming. For example, what should people living in coastal areas do? They can move inland away from the dangers of storm surges, although this solution has high economic costs. An alternative plan, which is also extremely expensive, is to build dikes to protect coastal land. The Dutch, who have been doing this sort of thing for several hundred years, have offered their technical expertise to several developing nations threatened by a rise in sea level. We also have to adapt to shifting agricultural zones. Many temperate countries are in the process of evaluating semitropical crops to determine the best ones to substitute for traditional crops if or when the climate warms. Drought-resistant species of trees are being developed by large lumber companies now, because the trees planted today will be harvested many decades later when global warming may already get much worse.
