Soru 3 : The nail grows from a point near the roots below the skin. This semi-circle named the 'lunula' comprises a group of cells that manufacture keratin, a dead, hoof-like protein. Though nails grow an average of two inches per year, their growth slows with age, and the average adult's fingernails grow only one inch in eight months. The base of the nails is embedded into the skin. Unlike other skin, it contains elastic fibres that connect it to the nail, and hold it firmly in place. The cuticle, a rim of skin over the lunula, protects it from bacterial infection, serves as a shock absorber, and shields the nail from any sudden impacts. Normally, the lunula is white in colour, indicating proper nutrition and good overall health. Blue lunula raise red flags that circulatory problems to the fingers may exist. Nails that are hard, brittle, and tend to split easily, may also be clues to poor circulation, infection, or disturbances of the glandular and nutritional systems. Those curling sharply around the finger point to coronary, liver, or lung diseases.
We learn from the passage that ---- indicates good health.
A) the skin into which nails are embedded contains elastic fibres
B) females’ nails grow faster than males’
C) it is wrong to try to look for symptoms in the lunula to diagnose illnesses
D) when the cuticle is removed we are likely to get infected

Soru 9 : In the last third of the 19th century, new Technologies transformed the face of manufacturing in Europe, leading to new levels of economic growth and complex realignments among industry, labour and national governments. Like Europe’s first industrial revolution, which began in the late 18th century and centred on coal, steam and iron, this “second” industrial revolution relied on innovation in three key areas: steel, electricity, and chemicals. For instance, steel, which was harder, stronger and more malleable than iron, had long been used as a construction material. But until the mid-nineteenth century, producing steel cheaply and in large quantities was impossible. That changed between the 1850s and 1870s, as new and different processes for refining and mass-producing alloy steel revolutionized the metallurgical industry. Although iron did not disappear overnight, it was soon eclipsed by soaring steel production. So, steel began to be used for various purposes. In Britain, for example, shipbuilders made a quick and profitable switch to steel construction, and thus kept their lead in the industry. Germany and the US, however, dominated the rest of the steel industry. By 1901, Germany was producing almost half as much steel as Britain and was able to build a massive national and industrial infrastructure.
According to the passage, the first industrial revolution ----.
A) caused so much labour unrest in Europe that the
steel industry did not develop adequately
B) came into being during the later decades of the
eighteenth century
C) originally began in Britain and, then, spread to
Germany and other European countries
D) led to the manufacture of a wide variety of
goods, ranging from construction materials to chemicals
E) did not last long, since it did not lead to the
development of new technologies

Soru 10 : Many athletes have relatively slow resting heart rates because physical training makes the heart stronger and enables it to pump the same amount of blood with fewer beats.
A) Bir çok atletin dinlenme anındaki kalp atış hızı nispeten düşüktür çünkü idman yapmak kalbi güçlendirir ve daha az sayıda atışla aynı miktarda kan pompalamasını sağlar.
B) Bir çok atletin kalp atış hızı dinlenirken yavaştır çünkü fiziksel antrenman kalbi güçlendirir ve aynı miktarda kanı pompalamak için daha az atmasını mümkün kılar.

Soru 23 : Most of us think that we wear clothes only because we want to protect our body from cold, or in order to look smarter or more beautiful in them. Some people also buy clothes thinking that they are fashionable. However, without realising it, the clothes we choose to wear tell other people a lot about ourselves. For example, people dressed in expensive clothes are thought to be wealthy. Our shoes, accessories and jewellery all tend to create an impression of our social class and personality. On the other hand, if we work as a nurse, police officer or fire-fighter, we have to wear a standard uniform. In conclusion, more than being just a way to keep warm, clothes reveal a lot about a person’s life, character and status.
It’s implied in the passage that some people ----.
A) gossip about other people related to the clothes they wear

Soru 25 : In the past decade academics have been involved in investigating differences between men and women. Researchers have been especially interested in discovering what women can do better than men. As far as language is concerned, studies show that girls begin talking before boys and are capable of producing more varied and sophisticated sentences. In addition to having a better command of the language, women also appear to have better social skills and are more likely to be complimentary than men. Another area that has been investigated is how men and women lead. Women try to share power and make their employees feel more worthwhile. Men, on the other hand, like to demonstrate their authority more formally and seem to care more about hierarchy. However, it is worth remembering that study results reflect averages, and there will always be exceptions.

Soru 38 : 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.
As explained in the passage, listening to Mozart —.
A) was a favourite activity of journalists in order to overcome their work stress
B) and sitting in silence equally contributed to a substantial increase in intelligence
C) was as effective as the relaxation tape in the test of spatial intelligence
D) made babies so bright that mothers began to play Mozart music to their children
E) appeared to improve intelligence but this finding was not supported by other research
Cevap 38 : E

Soru 43 : By the early 19th century, the eminent French zoologist Georges Cuvier believed he had found rock-solid evidence for the biblical great flood. While studying the geological strata around Paris, Cuvier found that fossils or sea creatures in one ancient layer of chalk were overlaid by those of land creatures. Then, just as abruptly, the layer above contained sea creatures again, with the top layer showing evidence of a vast and rapid inundation around present-day Paris. Cuvier regarded these sudden changes in the fossil record as evidence for sudden catastrophes which devastated life of Earth, of which the great flood was just the most recent example. Cuvier's discoveries, published in 1812, won support from a large number of eminent scientists such as the geologist Sir James Hall. However, there were a few who were deeply sceptical, pointing out that the evidence of a global flood was far from conclusive. Most sceptical of all were the followers of the Scottish geologist James Hutton. In 1795, he had published a two-volume text based on the view that the slow, steady processes that shape our planet today, such as erosion, were also crucially important in the distant past.
It is clear from the passage that Cuvier ------.
A) adopted an indifferent attitude towards the attacks of his critics
B) was greatly influenced by Hutton's theory concerning the Earth's formation
