BAŞARILAR DİLERİM.

DENEME NASIL ÇÖZÜLÜR

Çoğu kişi maalesef sınava hazırlanmanın önemli bir parametresi olan deneme çözmeyi ciddiye almaz ve onu alıştırma ile karıştırır. Oysa deneme bir konuda ustalaşmak için kullandığımız alıştırmalardan çok farklıdır. Amacı gayet nettir:

1. Seviyenin tespiti

2. İlerleme olup olmadığının tespiti

3. Eksikliklerin tespiti

4. Gerçek sınav için sağlam bir teknik ve yöntem geliştirme

Ben bir deneme çözümünde şu altı kıstasın olmazsa olmaz olduğunu düşünenlerdenim:

1. TEK OTURUM, TAM SÜRE: Bir sınav tek oturumda ve araya mola verilmeden çözülmeli. Sınav esnasında bir şey yenilip içilmemeli, tuvalet ve sigara molası da dâhil, araya mola konmamalı. Zira gerçek sınavda bunları yapma şansımız yok. Her mola, denemedeki puanımızı yükseltecek ve durumumuz hakkında gerçekçi olmayan fikirlere sahip olmamızı sağlayacaktır. Eğer İKİ BUÇUK SAATLİK TEK OTURUM yapma şansımız hiç yoksa, verilen her mola için toplam süreden tam 5 dakika kısaltılmalıdır. Üç defadan daha fazla mola verilmiş ise eğer, artık o sınav bir DENEME SINAVI değildir.

2. SINAV BİTMEDEN KONTROL YOK: Tüm sorular bitmeden yapacağınız her kontrol, netinizi yukarı çıkaracak ve durum tespitini imkânsızlaştıracaktır. Oysa gerçek sınavda, mesela 50. sorudayken bile, 3. soruda verdiğimiz seçeneğin doğru olup olmadığı fikri beynimizi yemeye devam eder. Kuşku ve belirsizlik, neti aşağı çeker.

3. TAKILINCA İŞARETLEME GEÇ, SONRA BAK – SÜPÜRME YÖNTEMİ: Boş bırakabilme erdemi, çoğu kişinin A puanlarına ulaşabilmesinde en önemli etkendir. Basit nedenlerle, okuduğu seçenekte çabuk bir doğru cevap bulmazsa işaretleme yapmadan geçen bir kişi, daha sonra aynı seçeneğe baktığında doğruya ulaşacaktır:

• Uğraştığınız seçenek BOYUNUZUN ÜZERİNDE ve hatta iptal edilecek bir YANLIŞ SORU olabilir. Onunla uğraşmanız zamanınızı yer ve kendinize inancınızı bitirir. İkisi de size en lazım olan şey. Oluşan zaman baskısı ve hüsran duygusu, normalde doğru cevaplanabilecek ve çok daha kolay pek çok sorunun yanlış cevaplanmasına yol açacaktır.

• Uğraştığınız seçenek çözebileceğiniz zorluktadır ama o anda cevabı hatırlamıyorsunuz veya doğru açıdan bakmıyorsunuzdur. Israr etmeniz size yardımcı olmaz. Ama başka sorularla uğraşırken, beyniniz zaten bu soru için de yeter miktarda mesai sarf edecek ve bir daha baktığınızda soruyu gayet kolaylaşmış olacaktır: Beyniniz problemi çözmüş veya soruya yeniden bakarken bakış anızı değiştirmişsinizdir.

• Uğraştığınız sorunun cevabı ya doğrudan veya modelleme mantığına göre okuyacağınız diğer sorularda gizli olabilir. Siz diğer soruları okurken, beyniniz buradan doğru bilgileri kodlayacak ve yeniden boş bıraktığınız soruya geldiğinizde, tercihiniz büyük ihtimalle doğru olacaktır. Unutmayın en büyük kopya, soru kitapçığınızın bizatihi kendisidir.

Soruların hepsini bitirdikten sonra boş bıraktığınız sorulara yine sırayla birkaç defa dönüp, her doğru cevap çıkmadığında yeniden boş bırakıp geçmeyi unutmayın. Böylece belirli bir süpürme-tarama yöntemiyle aynı sorulara birkaç kez bakmış olacaksınız. Son 10 dakikada ise artık atma vakti gelmiş olabilir. Hilelere ancak burada yer veriniz.

4. SINAV BİTİNCE TAHMİN: Sınavdan sonra kaç net alacağınızı ±5 hata ile bilmeniz, durumunuzu tespitte çok önemlidir. Bu tahmin bir müddet sonra hangi seçeneği bilerek, hangisini ise sallayarak yaptığınızı bilmeniz hususunda size olağanüstü bir yetenek kazandıracak ve böylece hangi seçeneği hemen işaretleyeceğinizi, hangi seçeneği boş bırakıp sonra bakmanız gerektiğini ve hangi seçenekte aslında atmak durumunuzda olduğunu ve dolayısıyla hile-hurda kullanabileceğinizi bilmenizi sağlayacak.

5. YANLIŞLARI BİR DAHA ÇÖZ – TURLAMA: Cevapları başkasına kontrol ettirip, yanlış cevaplarınızı bir daha çözmeye çalışmanız, bir sonraki denemenizde NET ARTIRABİLMENİZ neredeyse en garanti yoludur. Beyniniz (a) iki şık arasında hangisini seçmeniz gerektiğini öğrenecek, (b) yanlış yaptığı soruyu bir daha çözdüreceğinizi anladığından, ilk hamlede doğruyu görmeyi başarabilecektir. Turlamayı illaki tüm soruların cevabını kendiniz buluncaya kadar yapınız. Ama İLK TUR, en öğretici olandır.

6. KELİME ÖĞREN: Sınavın bir kısmından keklime öğrenmeyi ihmal etmeyin. Bir limitiniz olsun, mesela 100. O sınavdan tam 100 adet bilmediğiniz kelime öğrenmeye bakın. Sadece paragraflardaki kelimelere bakmanız bile yeterli olabilecektir.

If engineers waited for the development of scientific knowledge to use and organize into technological achievements, ours would be a very different world from what we know. In engineering, it is not so much science as it is ingenuity that is applied to solve problems and satisfy needs and wants. If this were not so, the steam engine would never have been invented in the absence of thermodynamics. The Wright Brothers would not have flown since they had no aerodynamics textbooks. The astronauts would never have landed on the Moon nor the rovers on Mars without firm geological knowledge of their surfaces. Rather than following scientific theories and discoveries, engineering leads them. Operating steam engines prompted the development of thermodynamics, actual powered flight drove aerodynamics, and Moon and Mars missions brought back samples and sent back data that led to increased scientific knowledge about those extraterrestrial bodies.

43. The main point made in this passage is that ----.

A) engineers rely on theoretical science for the solution of technical problems

B) theoretical science and technological achievement have always gone hand-in-hand

C) engineering is very often a step ahead of the pure sciences

D) all scientists show equal ingenuity

E) the steam engine was the greatest invention of all time

44. As it is pointed out in the passage, it was only after the steam engine had come into being that ----.

A) anyone could envisage traveling into space

B) people understood what engineering could achieve

C) people began to value scientific theory

D) aerodynamics attracted any serious attention

E) the science of thermodynamics really began to develop

45. We understand from the passage that the technological achievements of engineers are ----.

A) frequently the result of inventiveness and creativity

B) based on a profound knowledge of several scientific fields

C) best exemplified in the missions to Mars

D) often disappointing as they aim to achieve too much

E) no longer as impressive as formerly

46. One point made in the passage is that inventions ----.

A) relate more to physics than to chemistry

B) are made in response to the recognition of a need

C) are almost always based on some degree of scientific knowledge

D) are valued more than new scientific theories

E) do not usually relate to our ordinary everyday life

The people of Blaenavon in South Wales were understandably worried. The opencast mine only 1 kilometer north of their town had served the great Blaenavon ironworks when they opened in the late 18th century. But it had been lying derelict for decades and now British Coal Opencast wanted to mine the remaining 320,000 tonnes of coal. At opencast sites, for every tonne of coal recovered, up to 40 tonnes of rock has to be extracted. So, in the case of Blaenavon, unless precautionary measures were taken, the air in the town was going to be thick with dust. Precautionary measures were taken, based on well-tried techniques. For instance, tall spray masts were erected around dumps to provide a curtain of rain to entrap and wash out dust from the air, and the wheels of every vehicle leaving the site were washed. Further, reclaimed areas were planted with trees and grass from day one. With these and other measures this turned out to be a success story for all concerned. In fact, during the entire mining and reclamation project not a single complaint about nuisance dust was made to the local authority.

47. It is clear from the passage that the events described in the passage amount to a "success story" ----.

A) even though very little coal was mined

B) as new methods of dust control were developed and tried out

C) because the coal was mined without the nearby town suffering from dust

D) since no one regretted the closing-down of the mine

E) though the task of controlling the dust had proved expensive and time-consuming

48. We learn from the passage that, with opencast mining, ----.

A) dust control is almost impossible

B) the coal is generally of a very poor quality

C) miners work in better conditions than in underground mines

D) once the coal has been extracted, grass and trees have to be planted immediately

E) a huge amount of rock has to be removed in order to get a relatively small amount of coal

49. According to the passage, the opencast mine near Blaenavon ----.

A) had always given employment to the men in the town

B) had been in constant use since the late 18th century

C) had never been mined economically

D) had been neglected for years and fallen into a state of decay

E) filled the town with dust even when coal was not being mined there

50. It is clear from the passage that the measures employed at the site of the mine to control dust ----.

A) relied, to a large extent, on the use of water

B) were not adequate enough

C) were just ordinary, routine measures

D) were devised and implemented by the people in the local town

E) were set up in a careless half-hearted manner

As for the lifestyle in the Netherlands, the Dutch have a deserved reputation for being easygoing. But as with any country, there are some surprises for newcomers to get used to. For instance, the amount of bureaucracy strikes them as remarkable when they first move to the Netherlands. Want to light a small fire in your garden? You'll need permission from the local government. Fancy painting your house? Better check with the government first. A major problem is the tightening up of immigration laws on a large scale. The problem is that the Netherlands is a small country that is facing a lot of immigration, so they are making it tougher and tougher. But, actually, racism is foreign to the Dutch culture. They are very accepting; they take you as you are.

51. We understand from the passage that the Dutch people ----.

A) frequently discriminate against foreigners

B) wish to keep foreigners out of the country

C) constantly complain about the inefficiency of local governments

D) represent a number of contrasting features

E) resent having to live in such a small county

A) certain ordinary activities are subject to regulation

B) a large proportion of the people are racists

C) immigrants invariably have a very tough time to start with

D) local governments have very little authority

E) bureaucracy plays a very small role in daily life

53. We understand from the passage that newcomers to the Netherlands ----.

A) feel obliged to conform to the Dutch way of life

B) are never absorbed into the community

C) usually feel themselves at home from the beginning

D) soon adapt themselves to the Dutch culture

E) may be surprised at the many and various regulations

54. It is obvious from the passage that immigration----.

A) has increased the amount of racism in the Netherlands

B) into the Netherlands upsets no one

D) laws in the Netherlands have been relaxed in recent years

Patent laws do little or nothing to help poor countries dig their way out of poverty, and could even make matters worse. That's the controversial conclusion of an independent commission on intellectual property rights appointed by the British government. Its report, launched recently in Geneva, contains 50 radical recommendations to help make these rights work to the advantage of poor countries. Britain's Department for International Development has already promised to look hard at the suggestions, but it's unclear whether the rest of the international community will listen. The World Trade Organization has persuaded most countries to sign an intellectual property rights (IPR) agreement that obliges them to impose Western style laws on everything from patents to copyrights by 2006. But the new report argues that these laws only benefit rich countries with strong traditions of invention, and do little to aid the transfer of technology to poor countries. The report argues that poor countries should be given a lot more flexibility so as to customize those laws, and up to a decade longer to do so. At present, many poor countries don't have intellectual property laws at all. That means local inventors can't get protection for their ideas, but it also means people can buy cheap versions of medicine or software that have been patented elsewhere. Since poor countries often have little to patent in the first place, the benefits of having no laws can outweigh the disadvantages.

55. According to the passage, the findings of a special commission set up to examine the proposed new patent laws ----.

A) have been widely accepted by the international community

B) suggest that poor countries will not benefit from them

C) have been submitted to the World Trade Organization for approval

D) recommend that they be introduced over a very long period of time

E) has aroused much controversy with the British government

56. We understand from the passage that the absence of patent laws in a number of poor countries ----.

A) has angered the rest of the international community

B) is bound to end by the year 2006

C) is of no importance and should be ignored

D) has caused the drain of their scientific potential

E) is to the disadvantage of native inventors

57. According to the passage, it is not yet certain that the recommendations made by the British government appointed commission ----.

A) actually aim to benefit poor countries

B) will be ratified by the World Trade Organization

C) will be finally rejected by the international community

D) will gain the approval of a majority of countries

E) will aid the transfer of technology to poor counties

58. One point made in the passage is that it is to the advantage of poor countries ----.

A) not to have patent laws

B) to sign the intellectual property rights agreement

C) to accept western style laws regarding patents

D) to encourage the work of local inventors

E) to combat their poverty by accepting cheap goods from abroad

A century ago in Japan, rice was the dominant food at every meal, but meats, breads and milk products now dominate. The health implications of such changes are two-sided.
