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.

44. It is pointed out in the passage that the diversity
of life on Earth ----.
43. – 46. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre
cevaplayınız.
A)
How have terrestrial organisms met the
environmental challenges of living on land? Life
began in the oceans, but many life forms have since
adapted to terrestrial life in a sea of air. Every single
organism living on land has to meet the same
environmental challenges: obtaining enough water;
preventing excessive water loss; getting enough
energy; and in Polar Regions, tolerating widely
varying temperature extremes. How those
challenges are met varies from one organism to
another, and in large part explains the diversity of
life encountered on land today. Some animals avoid
colder temperatures by migrating to warmer
climates for the winter, whereas others avoid the
cold by passing the winter in a dormant state called
hibernation. Many plants also spend winter in a
dormant state. The aerial parts of some plants die
during the winter, but the underground parts remain
alive; the following spring they resume metabolic
activity and develop new aerial shoots. Many trees
are deciduous; that is, they shed their leaves for the
duration of their dormancy. Shedding leaves is
actually an adaptation to the “dryness” of winter.
Roots cannot absorb water from ground that is cold
or frozen; by shedding its leaves the plant reduces
water loss during the cold winter months when
obtaining water from the soil is impossible.

B)
increases their metabolic activity throughout
winter
C) is an effective mechanism of resistance to heat
D) is a regular metabolic activity which is not
related to environmental conditions

The Wireless Museum has several of the earliest
crystal wireless sets from the 1920s which ran on
electromagnetic waves with no external power
source, and were easily made at home. Valve
radios, which came along in the 1930s, needed
electricity to heat up the valves and the museum
has both mains and battery-powered valve radios
on display. The collection also has some rare
wartime civilian receivers — the only type of valve
radio manufactured during the Second World War.
This was by order of the government, because at
this time most manufacturing was focused on the
war effort. There are also plenty of modern day
transistor radios including a collection of novelty
radios dating from the sixties and seventies.

52. According to the passage, the Supreme Court of
the US ----.
51. – 54. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre
cevaplayınız.
The US Supreme Court is not a radical institution,
nor is it likely to become one as a result of any
particular presidential election. The risks for the
judiciary in presidential elections are a lot lower than
many people imagine. This is not because there are
no significant ideological or methodological
differences among judges. Differences do exist, and
they display party affiliation to some extent. And
they matter – not just on public issues such as
abortion rights and racial discrimination but also in
those procedures that actually guide the way lower
courts handle a large variety of legal cases. That
said, the courts have pretty strong institutional
defences against radicalism of any kind. For one
thing, the judiciary’s power is spread among more
than 800 federal judges, no one of whose views
matter all that much in the broad scheme of things.

American schools need more time if they are to
teach efficiently. The school year is fixed at or below
180 days in all but a handful of states – down from
more than 190 in the late nineteenth century, when
Saturday-morning sessions were common. The
instructional day is only about six hours, of which
much is taken up with nonacademic matters. In
1994, a national commission calculated that in four
years of high school a typical American student puts
in less than half as much time on academic subjects
as do students in Japan, France and Germany.
Extending the school day or the school year can get
expensive and complicated, and reducing nonacademic electives and physical education brings
complaints from parents and students alike. But
there is one quite cheap and uncomplicated way to
increase study time: add more homework. You may
not be surprised to learn that homework raises
student achievement, at least in the higher grades.
For young children homework appears not to be
particularly helpful. Even among older students it is
hard to be sure of the extent to which more
homework may lead to higher achievement.
B)
A)
the school curricula allow roughly equal time for
academic and nonacademic subjects
B)
the school year is far too long and this makes it
unproductive
C) students are given less homework than their
American counterparts
D) achievement correlates well with the length of
the school day

59. – 62. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre

Aging involves multiple harmful biological events
that accumulate in different tissues over time and
gradually reduce an organism’s state of
maintenance and function. Calendar time, however,
serves as an imperfect measurement of the
physiological processes involved in aging. We all
know individuals who are the same chronological
age but appear to be very different when it comes to
physiological age. Rather than counting years - or
gray hairs, for that matter - modern gerontologists
turn to biological markers, or biomarkers, of aging.
These physiological parameters indicate an
individual’s functional level and some biomarkers,
such as insulin levels, correlate with mortality. The
presence of such biomarkers depends indirectly on
patterns of gene expression, which are induced by a
variety of internal or external stimuli.
