Soru 7 : Engineering is akin to writing or painting in that it is a creative endeavour that begins in the mind’s eye and proceeds into new frontiers of thought and action, where it does not so much find as make new things.Just as the poet starts with a blank sheet of paper and the artist with a blank canvas, so the engineer today begins with a blank computer screen. Until the outlines of a design are set down, however tentatively, there can be no appeal to science or to critical analysis to judge or test the design. Scientific,rhetorical or aesthetic principles may be called on to inspire, refine and finish a design, but creative things do not come of applying the principles alone. Without the sketch of a thing or a diagram of a process,scientific facts and laws are of little use to engineers. Science may be the theatre, but engineering is the action on the stage.

Soru 18 : In 1993, Frances Rauscher and her team published a scientific paper that changed the world. She had taken a number of students and randomly divided them into three groups. One group listened to Mozart's Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major, the second group heard a standard relaxation tape, and the third sat in silence. Everyone then completed a standard test of spatial intelligence. Those who had listened to Mozart scored far higher than those in the other two groups. Journalists reported the findings, with some exaggerating the results, declaring just a few minutes of Mozart led to a substantial, long-term increase in intelligence. The idea spread, some reporting that even babies became brighter after listening to Mozart. But when other scientists tried to replicate Rauscher's results, they concluded that the effect, if it existed, was much smaller than was first thought. For instance, Glenn Schellenberg had children learn keyboard skills, have voice training, take drama classes or, as a control, do nothing. Clear IQ improvements were observed in children who were taught keyboard skills or given voice lessons, whereas those given drama lessons were no different from the control group. It seems that the focused attention and memorization required in certain tasks, not just listening to Mozart, helps children's self-discipline and thinking.
Cevap 18 : E

Soru 23 :

White Castle opened its doors in 1921,  and the franchise set out to make a better name for the hamburger in a time when the ground meat patty had a bad name in popular culture. Ahead of its time,  White Castle also allowed people to see their food being made,  a first at the time. Franchising was introduced the same year when A&W Root Beer franchised its popular syrup. Combining these factors with Howard Johnson franchising its first restaurant in the 1930s,  the stage was set for the takeoff of the industry. McDonald's opened its doors in 1948,  instilling the first assembly-line-style restaurant,  and from there,  the fast food industry grew steadily for decades.Burger King and Taco Bell opened their doors in the 1950s,  and Wendy's followed in 1969. Drive-through windows took off at fast food chains with the advent of speaker systems in the 1950s. By 2005,  the fast food industry had sales totalling over $163.5 billion worldwide. McDonald's,  as of 2014,  has over 30, 000 franchised restaurants in 120 countries.With its success,  the fast food industry has come under much scrutiny for selling unhealthy foods,  marketing extensively and aggressively to children,  and undermining local cultures and values in different parts of the world.

Soru 29 :

In 1764, there was a serious quarrel over taxation between the British government and its colonies in

America. The British government continued to think

of the colonists as British subjects. In 1700, there had

been only 200.000 colonists, but by 1770 this number

rose to 2.5 million. Obviously, such large numbers

needed to be dealt with carefully. Some American

colonists decided that it was not lawful for the British

government to tax them without their agreement.

Political opinion in Britain was divided. Some felt that

the tax was fair because the money would be used to

pay for the defence of the American colonies against

French attack. But several important politicians

agreed with the colonists that there should be “no

taxation without representation”. Hence, in 1773, at

the port of Boston, a group of colonists threw a

shipload of tea into the sea rather than pay tax on it.

The event became known as “the Boston Tea Party”.

The British government responded by closing the

port. But the colonists then decided to prevent British

goods from entering America until the port was

opened again. The colonists’ action was regarded as

a rebellion, and the British government decided to

defeat it by force. Thus, the American War of

Independence got underway. The war lasted from

1775 until 1783. The British government had no

respect for the colonists’ fighting ability. The result

was a disastrous defeat for the British forces. At the

end of the war, Britain lost all the American colonies

except Canada.

One understands from the passage that, because of the tax crisis, ----.

A) the American colonists imposed sanctions on

British goods

B) the port of Boston was closed for over half a

century

C) Britain took urgent precautions in order to

increase its military capacity in America

D) the import of tea into the American colonies

came under the British monopoly

E) France expressed its willingness to aid the

American colonies against Britain

Soru 30 :

 

Scientists, whether intentionally, or unintentionally, tripped us up when they named the centipede, one of the oldest creatures in existence. Centipede really means '100-footed,' and some centipedes have 100 feet. In fact, some centipedes have more than 100 feet, and some have as few as 30. Perhaps, mathematicians, not scientists, should have done the calculations, and should have named this species. The centipede emerges from eggs, laid in the open, with either a full set of legs, or with a starter set of seven pairs, and plays add-a-pair each time it sheds its skin, until maturity. These paired legs grow out of a segment of the centipede's flat, many jointed body, making them much easier to keep track of, and the centipede is less likely to stumble as he forages for food by night. The sheer number of legs, however, may present a problem for the centipede by day, as it must safely tuck them in, when taking cover under rocks or rotting wood. The tropical variety of the centipede has little to fear in this regard, because this flavor of centipede bears enough poison in its two claws to kill a small bird.  

The passage mainly discusses ----.

 

A)    the main features of a many-footed species 
B)    misnomers coined by scientists 
C)    the centipede’s sources of food 
D)    the tropical centipede 
E)    the problems that the centipede face in

nature

Soru 33 :

The golden hamster is about 15 centimetres (6 inches) long and weighs about 140 grams (5 ounces). It is a native of Europe and Asia.

The pouches can carry up to half the animal's weight in food. To empty its cheeks, the hamster presses on them with its forefeet and blows. Hamsters have plump bodies and short limbs.
