YABANCI DİL SEVİYE TESPİT SINAVI İNGİLİZCE YDS Derleme 9 1. 2. 3. 4. Bu testte 80 soru vardır. Her soru 1,25 puan değer taşımaktadır. Yanlış cevap doğru seçeneği götürmeyecektir. Sınavın toplam süresini 150 dakikadır NOT: Bu deneme 10 cümle tamamlama, 6 çeviri sorusu, 4 karşılıklı konuşma, 4 anlamca en yakın, 4 anlam bütünlüğünü bozan soru hariç, ÖZGÜN sorulardan oluşturulmuştur. Toplam 7972 kelime içeren test, gerekli itina gösterilmeye çalışılsa da, sınavda alacağınız notu temsil edemeyebilecektir. Ancak durumun ne olduğunu kabaca görmek isteyenler ve toplu deneme yapan çalışma arkadaşlarım için bir kaynak olarak faydalı olabilir. Mehmet Mamger 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.

It is common that breath-taking scandals are uncovered and covert operations are prevented as a result of media investigations in political arena. This may occur after immense and tireless research into the particular discrepancies among various stories told by politicians or may simply result from an investigative journalist following an instinctive guess. The methods utilized in various scandals and subsequent cover-ups may include bugging governmental offices, tapping telephone lines, classifying documents as "top secret" or purging relevant data from computer systems. Once the scandal is uncovered, the politician will be subjected to questioning at a public hearing. Most politicians do not respond with complete honesty during these proceedings. Some may calmly profess no knowledge of the matter, while others may shyly state that their recollection of the events is slightly blurry. On the other hand, most parties involved will attempt to reply to questioning skilfully and firmly with sound arguments and appropriate remarks. Even so, the hearing is likely to have an adverse impact on the politician's career. The politician may become an object of mockery among voters, and even be forced to relinquish his or her position, and thus, be banished from public office for the remainder of his or her career. A) avoid the testimony without sound grounds during the proceedings B) exercise more caution in their affairs subsequent to giving up public office C) hide secret listening devices in offices and on telephones D) add irrelevant information to computer files E) bug the media investigation centers to receive some relevant information from computer systems 45. It is pointed out in the passage that the public hearing ----. A) may result in the exile of the politician to another country B) may expose the politician to public ridicule C) is poorly attended by members of the public D) is not carried out with complete honesty, and proceedings could be interrupted E) may force the politicians to bug governmental offices and tap telephone lines 43. According to the passage, political scandals ----. A) often come to light due to differences among various versions of stories told by politicians B) are equivalent to covert operations mostly carried out according to a consensus C) are rarely mentioned in the news in modern times D) are merely made known by an investigative journalist following an intuitive deduction E) 46. As is written in the passage, ----. are mostly uncovered due to sound arguments and appropriate remarks A) most politicians are scandalous and show discrepancies B) the politician might be subjected to questioning at a public hearing since he or she revealed a scandal C) testimony can be revised by witnesses as desired D) most parties reply nervously and hesitantly to questions at the public hearing E) the public hearing may result in the demise of the politician's career 10 MAMGER Dil YDS 47. - 50. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre cevaplayınız. DERLEME 9 48. According to passage, the main aim of the World Vets aid missions is ----. What if you could travel to exotic locations and help save animals' lives, on the same trip? Portland veterinarians have done so for years. They have sent teams of vets full of volunteers to developing countries in Latin America. And with guidance from an organization founded in the Pacific Northwest, you, too, dear amateur animal lover, can travel to interesting places and help the local domestic “critters” in a meaningful way. World Vets, a nonprofit group that a Washington veterinarian started in 2006, organizes veterinary aid missions all over the world. On each trip, two to three slots are open to participants lacking any veterinary experience whatsoever. Most of World Vets' destinations are in Central America. Trips typically last one week; farther destinations eat up too much travel time, leaving less time for the work at hand. Although they are work trips, a couple of days are reserved for rest and relaxation – after all, who wants to pay just over $1,000 plus airfare only to come home exhausted? However, the emphasis is on volunteering, not tourism. A) to draw the attention of some people to animal rights B) to raise some money in order to help future organisations for saving animal lives C) to help some volunteers to come together on the purpose of animal rights D) to help domestic and exotic animals in a evocative way and save their lives E) to make a lot of money in a short period of time 49. According to the passage, the reason why the organization wants to avoid places that are farther away is that ----. A) their budget does not fund the travels further B) most volunteers prefer Latin America for rest and relaxation C) the participants mostly cannot pay more than $1,000 per travel 47. It is pointed out in the passage that ----. A) B) D) the key point in the travels is to find volunteers for near destinations Central America is the only destination mostly due to its proximity to the United States E) the trips continue longer than a week despite limited sources farther places may necessitate longer time on road and reduce the time for working C) the volunteers are also allowed to have some fun in the destination country D) the main purpose of these travels is making some money to aid World Vets aid missions E) 50. As is said in the passage, ----. the trips are attended by only professionals and ones with veterinary experience A) the destination for most of the aid missions is Pacific Northwest B) the people without veterinary practice are also available on the trips organised by World Vets C) a couple of weeks for rest and relaxation are especially necessary for amateurs D) the trips are attended by only professionals and ones with veterinary experience E) 11 we shouldn’t waste time, money, and energy saving animals, when so many humans are in need MAMGER Dil YDS DERLEME 9 52.

Everyone knows that male birds are usually the ones with pretty colors, and that dull-looking females look for flashy mates. However, male blue tits, apparently, judge females by their looks. A new research suggests that the males are more attentive fathers to their babies if the mother is pretty. Both male and female birds of this species have shiny blue feathers on their heads that reflect ultraviolet light. For the study, scientists captured females while they were taking care of chicks and assigned them to either an experimental group or a control group, smearing the crests of the first group with UV-blocking chemicals to make the feathers look dull. Then they restored the birds to their nests. The male birds made significantly fewer feeding excursions for the nestlings of females with the UV-blocking chemicals on their feathers. The reason may be that males judged females with poor coloration less likely to produce healthy offspring, and therefore less worthy of energy expended taking-care them. Providing food is costly, and males do not waste their effort on babies unlikely to reproduce their genes. Previous studies have focused on male ornaments. However, in this case, the scientists focus on the females, and have found that the males, the fathers, change their behavior according to the females’ appearance. A) male birds find females with dull color more attractive B) in the study scientists captured males and covered them with UV-blocking chemicals C) both male and female birds are known to have flashy feathers and equally appealing D) male birds are mainly more eye-catching than female ones E) providing food is costly since the female birds with poor coloration are less likely to produce healthy children 53. It is pointed out in the passage that the dull color of females may indicate that ----. A) male birds need to be more attentive fathers B) the male supremacy is a necessity in bird world C) they look more attractive to the potential fathers D) they may not be able to produce healthy chicks E) the feather color is not so important in the bird world 51. According the passage, the pleasant appearance of female birds ----. A) has the main study subject of many previous studies B) may lead the male birds to be more caring fathers 54. As the study shows, unlike what most people may believe, ----. C) is sometimes superior to that of male birds A) the male birds are also affected by the appearance of the female birds D) may be the reason why male birds make fewer feeding excursions B) male birds mostly look more attractive than the female birds E) may cause the cost of providing food for the males to seem less dangerous C) the birds need to be captured and caged in order to be studied properly D) the male birds make less effort for the nestlings of females with flashy feathers E) 12 no previous study has examined the role of males in reproduction MAMGER Dil YDS DERLEME 9 56. It is clearly stated in the passage that one of the causes of the Crimean War was ----. 55. - 58. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre cevaplayınız. The Crimean War was named after the Crimean peninsula, now in Ukraine, which was the main site of the war. The war arose from the conflict of great powers in the Middle East and was more directly caused by Russian demands to exercise protection over the Orthodox subjects of the Ottoman sultan. Another major factor was the dispute between Russia and France over the privileges of the Russian Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches in the holy places in Palestine. Turkey rejected the Tsar’s outrageous terms, and Russian troops marched into the Turkish territories in the Balkans. Britain and France demanded that Russia evacuate the Danubian Principalities. War finally began in March 1854. By August, Turkey, with the help of Britain and France, had driven the Russian forces out of the Balkans. With a powerful force in position, but ravaged by a cholera epidemic, the allies adopted a British plan to land in the Crimea, assaulted the naval base at Sevastopol and destroyed the fleet and dockyard in order to bring the war to a decisive end.
