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.

43. – 46. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre
cevaplayınız.
A) matches human flexibility over domains wider
than ever before
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the ability of a digital
computer or computer-controlled robot to perform
tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings.
The term is frequently applied to the project of
developing systems endowed with the intellectual
processes characteristic of humans, such as the
ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or
learn from past experience. Since the development
of the digital computer in the 1940s, it has been
demonstrated that computers can be programmed
to perform very complex tasks, such as discovering
proofs for mathematical theorems or playing chess,
with great proficiency. Still, although there are
continuing advances in computer-processing speed
and memory capacity, there are as yet no programs
that can match human flexibility over wider domains
or in tasks requiring much everyday knowledge. On
the other hand, some extraordinary programs have
attained performance levels beyond those of human
experts and professionals engaged in certain
specific tasks. AI, in this limited sense, is used
efficiently and found in applications as diverse as
medical diagnosis, computer search engines, and
voice or handwriting recognition.
B)
perform certain tasks much better than humans
B)
have very limited memory capacity
D) is used to describe humans’ ability to reason,
discover meaning, generalize, or learn from
past experience
E)

performance of humans with difficult tasks
45. It can be inferred from the passage that ----.
A) the flexibility and efficiency of AI has matched
and even surpassed that of humans
B)
developing a system that has human-like
features will obviously remain an impossibility
C) humans are still better than computers in such
tasks as proving mathematical theorems
D) despite the continuing advances, computer
technology cannot be used efficiently in fields
such as voice or handwriting recognition
C) successfully make use of much everyday
knowledge
E)
D) have far more flexibility than is found in human
beings
E)
is a term used to refer to certain human-like

48. According to the passage, it was during the
Neolithic Age that ----.
47. – 50. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre
cevaplayınız.
A) agricultural peoples began to settle in the
Middle East and along the Mediterranean
Pottery was one of man’s first artefacts. It is the
presence of pottery, rather than of the polished
stone, that marks the passage from the Mesolithic to
the Neolithic Ages, when agricultural peoples settled
both in the Mediterranean area and in the Middle
East. It is commonly believed that the earliest
pottery receptacles copied those of other materials,
such as gourds or baskets. From the fingerprints on
them, it is possible to deduce that they were made
principally by women. Originally, any decoration was
indented; that is, patterns were pressed into the soft
clay, and it remained so for a long period until new
situations, at different times in different parts of the
world, produced painted decoration. As a
widespread form of culture, permanently bearing in
its shapes and decoration the character of individual
periods and peoples, the finding of pottery has been
of supreme importance to the archaeologist.
B) coloured stones were frequently collected and
polished
C) people first recognized the need for containers
and began to make baskets and use gourds to
carry water
D) painted decoration of pottery gave way to
decoration by indentation
E) pottery making spread from the Middle East to
other parts of the world

B) pottery production achieved technical perfection

B) were almost invariably made by men
C) served no practical purpose at all
C) the pottery of the Mesolithic Age is
indistinguishable from that of the Neolithic Age
D) were made in known shapes like those of
baskets
D) pottery can be used to trace development in
early human civilizations
E) tell us nothing at all about the people who made
them
E) the Neolithic Ages in the Mediterranean area
are largely characterized by the use of polished
stone
50. As is pointed out in the passage, pottery is of
great importance to archaeologists largely
because ----.
A) it has considerable artistic beauty
B) the fingerprints of the makers are preserved in

52. One understands from the passage that the rise
of insulin in the body ----.
51. – 54. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre
cevaplayınız.
A) increases the level of glucose in the blood,
which is controlled by epinephrine
Muscles can obtain the carbohydrate they need,
not only from glycogen stores but also from sugar
taken during activity, which elevates blood glucose
and enhances endurance. Normally, insulin
stimulates all the tissues of the body to drain
glucose from the blood and store it; however, this
is exactly the opposite of what is needed for
performance. During physical activity, the body’s
release of the hormone epinephrine keeps insulin
from rising in response to glucose entering the
blood. Physical activity also enhances muscle
sensitivity to insulin so that the muscles become
the primary recipient of blood glucose. Consuming
sugar is especially useful during exhausting
endurance activities lasting more than an hour.
Endurance athletes often run short of glucose by
the end of competitive events, and they are wise to
take light carbohydrate snacks or drinks
periodically during activity. During the last stages
of an endurance competition, when glycogen is
running low, glucose consumed during the event
can make its way slowly from the digestive tract to
the muscles and increase the body’s supply of
glucose enough to prevent exhaustion.
B) reaches its highest level when the glucose in
the blood becomes adequate
C) causes exhaustion, and therefore exhausting
endurance activities must be avoided
D) is related to the amount of glucose entering the
blood
E) not only reduces glycogen but also slows down
physical activity
53. It is suggested in the passage that, during an
exhausting endurance competition, athletes ----.
A) often have to combat rising glycogen levels
B) lose their muscle sensitivity to insulin
C) need a regular supply of glucose
D) should avoid consuming any carbohydrate-rich
food and drink
E) are adversely affected by the release of
epinephrine
51. It is clear from the passage that, during
prolonged physical activity, ----.
A) light carbohydrate snacks and drinks are not
advised as these would interfere with the
passage of glucose to the muscles
54. It is clear from the passage that, during
endurance activities, the digestive tract ----.
B) the body’s glycogen stores are so activated that
there is no need for extra carbohydrate supplies
A) should remain empty
C) insulin stimulates all the tissues of the body to
drain glucose from the blood
B) plays an important role in the supply of glucose
to the muscles
D) the consumption of sugar must be avoided so
that the body’s supply of glucose can be
maintained to prevent exhaustion
C) is important for the removal of glucose from the
blood
D) receives the hormone epinephrine when it is
released
E) blood glucose can be increased through the
intake of sufficient carbohydrate and, thus,
exhaustion can be avoided

55. – 58. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre

A) pink salmon may not be able to find lice to feed
on within eight years
According to a recent study by the University of
Alberta, parasitic sea lice are killing a population of
young wild pink salmon along Canada’s west coast
in alarming numbers. The authors of the study say
that the entire wild population may be gone within
eight years. With their protective scales, adult
salmon can safely harbour the lice, but young
salmon do not yet have the protective scales,
leaving them prone to deep, infection-prone wounds
left by the lice. Juveniles live in coastal waters,
which are normally far from parasite-carrying adults
living farther out to sea. Now, however, aqua farms
are often located in these same waters, destroying
the young salmon’s safe haven. Scientists argue
that fish farms must be relocated or reduced, but so
far, no government regulations have been launched
to this end.
B) Canada’s west coast has not been protected
well for eight years
C) the wild pink salmon population could disappear
within eight years
D) the rate of increase of the pink salmon
population is alarming
E) it takes about eight years for the pink salmon to
grow into adults

C) suffer greatly from infections caused by sea lice
B) the left side of the young pink salmon is more

D) protect their young from parasites with their
scales
C) adult pink salmon start to lose their scales after
eight years
E)
D) wild pink salmon are used to cleanse the water
of sea lice
become more prone to infection as they grow
bigger
E) aqua farms are a threat to the young pink
salmon
58. The young pink salmon ----.
A) destroy the safe haven of other types of salmon

60. The passage makes it quite clear that Charlie
Chaplin ----.
59. – 62. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre
cevaplayınız.
A) began his career as an actor but soon turned to
directing films instead
Charlie Chaplin, who was born in Britain but spent
most of his life in the United States, is one of the
pivotal figures in film history. He is especially
remembered for his work in the silent movies.
Chaplin knew that a successful scene was not
simply about the starring actor, but about everything
else. The only way to achieve that unity was to get
personally involved in every stage of the film; from
starring in his films to producing, directing, editing
them, and even to composing the music for them. It
was not uncommon for him to decide half-way
through a film that an actor wasn’t suitable for a
certain role, and start over with someone new. This
constant attention to detail ran many features
overtime and over-budget, but the public reaction
assured him and the studios that what he was doing
worked. Chaplin typically improvised his story in
front of the camera with only a basic framework of a
script. But on consideration, his art turned out to be
firmly rooted, and could be seen, for example, to
draw much of its strength from his successful fusion
of English and American cultures and traditions.
B) much preferred America and American culture
to Britain and British culture
C) is a major figure in the history of film-making
D) was eager to please those he worked with
E) appealed more to American audiences than to
British ones
61. It is clear from the passage that the film studios
----.
A) were taken in by Chaplin’s charm and let him
have his own way all the time
B) played a leading role in the making of Chaplin’s
films
59. As is pointed out in the passage the success of
Chaplin’s films was largely due to ----.
C) liked to work with Chaplin because he never
interfered with what they were doing
A) his own remarkable acting abilities
D) had to work on a very tight budget
B) the control he exercised on every aspect of a
film
E) were content to work with Chaplin as they felt
success was guaranteed
C) the detailed scripts prepared for each film
D) the professional skills of the studios that made
them
E) the fact that Chaplin liked to improvise new
scenes in front of the cameras

A) why Charlie Chaplin was so successful in the
film industry
B) the background factors contributing to Charlie
Chaplin’s success
C) how Charlie Chaplin contributed to the
development of the film industry
D) the differences between the film industry then
