İSTİKLÂL MARŞI
Korkma, sönmez bu şafaklarda yüzen al sancak;
Sönmeden yurdumun üstünde tüten en son ocak.
O benim milletimin yıldızıdır, parlayacak;
O benimdir, o benim milletimindir ancak.
Bastığın yerleri “toprak!” diyerek geçme, tanı:
Düşün altındaki binlerce kefensiz yatanı.
Sen şehit oğlusun, incitme, yazıktır, atanı:
Verme, dünyaları alsan da, bu cennet vatanı.
Çatma, kurban olayım, çehreni ey nazlı hilâl!
Kahraman ırkıma bir gül! Ne bu şiddet, bu celâl?
Sana olmaz dökülen kanlarımız sonra helâl...
Hakkıdır, Hakk’a tapan, milletimin istiklâl!
Kim bu cennet vatanın uğruna olmaz ki fedâ?
Şühedâ fışkıracak toprağı sıksan, şühedâ!
Cânı, cânânı, bütün varımı alsın da Huda,
Etmesin tek vatanımdan beni dünyada cüdâ.
Ben ezelden beridir hür yaşadım, hür yaşarım.
Hangi çılgın bana zincir vuracakmış? Şaşarım!
Kükremiş sel gibiyim, bendimi çiğner, aşarım.
Yırtarım dağları, enginlere sığmam, taşarım.
Ruhumun senden, İlâhi, şudur ancak emeli:
Değmesin mabedimin göğsüne nâmahrem eli.
Bu ezanlar -ki şahadetleri dinin temeliEbedî yurdumun üstünde benim inlemeli.
Garbın âfâkını sarmışsa çelik zırhlı duvar,
Benim iman dolu göğsüm gibi serhaddim var.
Ulusun, korkma! Nasıl böyle bir imanı boğar,
“Medeniyet!” dediğin tek dişi kalmış canavar?
O zaman vecd ile bin secde eder -varsa- taşım,
Her cerîhamdan, İlâhi, boşanıp kanlı yaşım,
Fışkırır ruh-ı mücerred gibi yerden na’şım;
O zaman yükselerek arşa değer belki başım.
Arkadaş! Yurduma alçakları uğratma, sakın.
Siper et gövdeni, dursun bu hayâsızca akın.
Doğacaktır sana va’dettiği günler Hakk’ın...
Kim bilir, belki yarın, belki yarından da yakın.
Dalgalan sen de şafaklar gibi ey şanlı hilâl!
Olsun artık dökülen kanlarımın hepsi helâl.
Ebediyen sana yok, ırkıma yok izmihlâl:
Hakkıdır, hür yaşamış, bayrağımın hürriyet;
Hakkıdır, Hakk’a tapan, milletimin istiklâl!

ATATÜRK’ÜN GENÇLİĞE HİTABESİ
Ey Türk gençliği! Birinci vazifen, Türk istiklâlini, Türk cumhuriyetini,
ilelebet, muhafaza ve müdafaa etmektir.
Mevcudiyetinin ve istikbalinin yegâne temeli budur. Bu temel, senin, en
kıymetli hazinendir. İstikbalde dahi, seni, bu hazineden, mahrum etmek isteyecek, dahilî ve haricî, bedhahların olacaktır. Bir gün, istiklâl ve cumhuriyeti müdafaa mecburiyetine düşersen, vazifeye atılmak için, içinde bulunacağın vaziyetin imkân ve şeraitini düşünmeyeceksin! Bu imkân ve şerait, çok nâmüsait
bir mahiyette tezahür edebilir. İstiklâl ve cumhuriyetine kastedecek düşmanlar,
bütün dünyada emsali görülmemiş bir galibiyetin mümessili olabilirler. Cebren
ve hile ile aziz vatanın, bütün kaleleri zapt edilmiş, bütün tersanelerine girilmiş, bütün orduları dağıtılmış ve memleketin her köşesi bilfiil işgal edilmiş
olabilir. Bütün bu şeraitten daha elîm ve daha vahim olmak üzere, memleketin
dahilinde, iktidara sahip olanlar gaflet ve dalâlet ve hattâ hıyanet içinde bulunabilirler. Hattâ bu iktidar sahipleri şahsî menfaatlerini, müstevlilerin siyasî
emelleriyle tevhit edebilirler. Millet, fakr u zaruret içinde harap ve bîtap düşmüş olabilir.
Ey Türk istikbalinin evlâdı! İşte, bu ahval ve şerait içinde dahi, vazifen;
Türk istiklâl ve cumhuriyetini kurtarmaktır! Muhtaç olduğun kudret, damarlarındaki asîl kanda, mevcuttur!

16 İpek is a Turkish girl. She is an eight grade student at a school in the USA. Read the diary of
her. Then label her and her friends in the picture.
Dear diary,
Today was very special for me because it was my birthday. My best friends gave me a surprise party today. I
got happy. After History class, Mark took me to the school canteen. When I entered the canteen, everybody was
shouting and wishing me happy birthday. I love Mark, because he is not selfish and bossy and he loves sharing.
When I first met him in the class, he invited me to sit next to him at the first day of school. He has always got a
heart-warming smile with his bright black eyes. He is tall and well-built. He goes trekking every weekend. The
same day he introduced me to Steven. He was really helpful. He immediately found me a locker and helped me
put my stuff in it. I think Steven is a true friend, too. I am very lucky to meet him. Steven is tall and fat. He is
wearing a pair of eye glasses. He loves playing chess. He is reliable and honest. I share my thoughts and feelings
with Steven. He never criticizes me and he is not pessimistic. He always accepts me as I am. Let’s come to
Alice. I met her in the lab. Her curiosity to Science suprised me, because Alice is the most beautiful and
elegant girl I’ve ever seen. She is tall and slim with shoulder-length blonde hair and blue eyes. She looks trendy
and she isn’t reserved. She loves talking. She prefers low-heeled boots to high-heeled shoes. She is a good
swimmer. Claire was with Alice. She isn’t interested in Science any more. She is a real bookworm. She is
persistent; nothing stops her when she decides something. I think she is very imaginative. She is short with
straight shoulder-length black hair and green eyes. I love them very much.

A GOOD STUDY PLACE
You need a good study place for studying your school subjects. First, your study place should be quiet. If it is
noisy, you cannot concentrate on your studying. Second, your study place should have a large desk or table. While
you are studying, the large desk or table should allow you enough space for writing and putting your materials.
Next, your study place should have a comfortable chair and enough light. An uncomfortable chair can give
your pain or discomfort. Finally, your study place should have comfortable temperature. If your study place is too
warm, you might become sleepy. If it is too cold, your thinking may slow down or become unclear.
A good study place is important for good studying.

Hi Auntie Pam,
I am writing to you, because I immediately need your advice. I am an eight-grade student at a primary
school. I am tall with shoulder-lenght brown hair. I think I am too tall. I am wearing thick glasses. I have
got an oval face with dark brown eyes. I have got some dreadful acne on my face. I can’t get rid of it.
Furthermore, I am plump because I eat too much. I can’t help eating chocolate, a packet of biscuits or
crisps.
Actually, I’m sociable. I have got lots of friends, because I have a good sense of humour. I always
make them laugh and happy. I am satisfied with my academic achievements. My friends find me attractive
and clever, but I don’t think so. I know I have no self-esteem and I don’t have any confidence in my
self-image. I can’t see myself as a beautiful girl. I don’t like it when people take my picture. Because I think
I look absolutely horrid and nasty in pictures. If people want to take my pictures on a special day, I always
pick out millions of flaws on my appearance and I find myself too ugly. I am envious of other girls in the
school. They look amazingly beautiful in their trendy clothes. Most of them are tall and slim with their
healthy skin. They follow the new trends in clothing and hairstyle. I want to be good-looking. My low
self-esteem is a huge problem for me and it ruins my social life because I don’t want to go out with my
friends or go shopping. When I look at myself in the mirror, I see a too tall, too fat silly girl with lots of
volcanic acne. This gives me depressive feelings. I can’t cope with them.
What should I do? Please help. I am looking forward to hearing you soon.
Best wishes,
June

S1 : I think she should use oil-free soap. It works better for
acne problems. I have the same problem and I am using
this kind of soap.
S2 : In my opinion, she should stop eating crisps and junk food
or drinking Cola. They make an oily-skin worse.
S3 : For me, hygiene is the most important. She should wash
her hands and face regularly with the anti-bacterial soap.
She shouldn’t itch her face.
14 Read the letter. Find what Auntie Pam’s advice is.
Dear June,
I was really sorry for you when I read your letter. You
summarized your condition in a simple and true way. You are
concious of your good qualities; you are attractive, successful
and sociable; they are not enough for you. If you have a
healthy self-esteem, you can accept your good qualities.
Perfection shouldn’t be your goal. Don’t judge yourself with
it.
I think the body images in your mind control your
self-esteem. They are thin, young and fashionable woman
images. Unfortunately, TV, videos and films placed our minds
these images. Actually, they create unrealistic expectations.
Today’s teenage girls believe that they can only be attractive if they look like models. I think you are
young enough to be beautiful and you are wise enough to be attractive.
Let’s take your question as “What should you do to have a healthy body and healthy look?
“First of all, don’t eat while studying. If you want to eat between meals, you’d better eat fruit and
yoghurt instead of biscuits, crisps and chocolate. You should avoid eating junk food. Eating fruit and
vegetables gives you a healthy skin and a healthy body. You shouldn’t miss meals. If you miss a meal,
you’ll starve every hour of the day and want to eat high-calorie food. You also ought to do exercise
regularly. It makes you feel fit and happy. Second, change your wardrobe. Go shopping and buy the
clothes in which you feel better. Why don’t you try a new hairstyle? A stylish cut will give you a new
image. Finally, look at yourself in the mirror, you will see an attractive and a clever young lady.
Good luck,
Auntie Pam

13 Read the interview. Who is Yakup Satar? What is he talking about? Find the answers.
Peter is a journalist. He interviewed Yakup Satar before he died in September 2006.
Yakup Satar : Those days were really tough. We didn’t have enough food, equipment and munitions in the
fronts. We could spend a day with a few crubs of bread with a glass of ayran maybe. We
heard the Armenians attacked Van, Bitlis, Erzurum, Kars and Nahçıvan, and the Turkish
Army under the control of Kâzım Karabekir could defeat the Armenian. It was a big victory.
The Armenian government had to want peace with the Turkish. The Armenian and the Turkish
signed the Gümrü Peace Treaty on 2 and 3 December, 1920.
Peter
: Was it the first international treaty and political success of the Grand National Assembly,
wasn’t it?
Yakup Satar : Yes.
Peter
: How could your soldiers find the munitions? I know the Allies took your munitions and sent
the army after The Armistice of Moudros. You got your own weapons out secretly from
İstanbul to the Anatolia. How could you manage to do?
Yakup Satar : Actually, all the people, from the young to the elderly, could carry the munitions on their
shoulders or on their oxen-driven carriages. They even couldn’t feed their animals enough.
But, we succeeded. Because we all believed the victory was not far away in our hearts.
59
Peter
: Did the Greek occupy anywhere?
Yakup Satar : Yes, they occupied İzmir according to the Paris Treaty. The people struggled against the
enemy with their courage, so they couldn’t go far fast, but they could take some parts of west
Anatolia, because our armies weren’t well-organized.
Peter
: Could you build well-organized armies later?
Yakup Satar : Yes, of course we could. Victory came soon. In the First Battle of İnönü, then the Second
Battle of İnönü, we could defeat the Greek Army with our well-organized army. Meanwhile,
we signed the Treaty of Moscow with the Russians on 16 March, 1921.
Peter
: What about the Second Battle of İnönü?
Yakup Satar : The Greek wanted to capture Eskişehir and Afyon. The army under the control of İsmet İnönü
could push back the enemy.
Peter
: When did Mustafa Kemal become the Chief Commander?
Yakup Satar : On 5 August, 1921.
Peter
: What happened then?
Yakup Satar : Our army was in the east of the Sakarya River. They attacked on 10 September. The Turkish
forces could throw them to the west of the Sakarya River after the 22 day and night war. So,
we won the Battle of Sakarya.
Peter
: What did that victory bring to you?
Yakup Satar : We signed The Treaty of Ankara with the French on 20 October, 1921. We signed the Treaty
of Kars with Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armania.
After a year, on 30 August we stopped the Greek Army in Dumlupınar. The Chief
Commander Mustafa Kemal defeated the Greek Army. So, the Turkish Army under the
control of the Chief Commander Mustafa Kemal could win the Independence War of Turkish
people. We signed the Armistice of Mudanya with the Allies on 11 October, 1922. The Grand
National Assembly abolished the Sultanate on 1 November, 1922.

Have you ever heard any true story about the Independence War? How did you feel after reading it?
17 Read the story. While reading, underline what Şerife Bacı could do or what she couldn’t do.
The winter past very harsh in 1921. Someone had to carry the
munitions coming from İnebolu to the fronts. The self-sacrificing
Turkish mothers were carrying munitions from İnebolu to Ankara
despite the chilly cold. One of them was Şerife Bacı. It was
snowing heavily and the night was coming with its colder hands.
She covered the munitions in the oxen-driven carriage with her
baby’s blanket.
She hid her little child among the munitions. After a while
she couldn’t follow the others. While she was pushing the
carriage with the oxen, the snow was tickening on the cover of the
munitions. There was a deep silence in the air. She could only
hear the noise of the carriage. The dark of the night was falling
down as a thick curtain and she couldn’t recognize the path and
she couldn’t follow the others. She was feeling very cold as she
felt a deep sleep desire. She could reach at the quarters.
She got frozen before she delivered the munitions to the
soldiers a few feet away. When the soldiers realized the
carriage, they rushed to it. They met Şerife Bacı lying frozen at the
feet of the oxen. While they were running for her, they heard a
baby crying. They pulled the frozen blanket, to their surprise, a
baby was there crying. His mother was dead but he was alive. She
could deliver the munitions.

It was a dark night. There was silence at home.
Mrs. Jackson was in a deep sleep. In her dream she
was sliding down from a steep cliff. She scared, but
she could reach a hill. Then she saw a river and a
small waterfall. Suddenly she looked at the water
and saw a fish. It was jumping up and down. It had
golden eyes. She could see its amazing colour in the
river. She thought it was very beautiful.
a
She watched the fish for some minutes. But it
disappeared suddenly. She couldn’t see it again.
Hopelessly she turned her head back. She screamed
when she tripped over something. Surprisingly, she
saw the same fish. Unfortunately, it was dead. Its
golden eyes were open and lifeless. She tried to get
the fish. She held the fish in her hands and felt very
sad. She closed her hands tightly, She started crying.
When she opened her hands, the little fish wasn’t
there. Instead, there was a golden necklace, her
mother’s golden necklace.

Somebody stole Mrs Jackson’s necklace last night. The necklace was very valuable. The next morning her
room maid, Alice came in with a big smile on her face.
“Good morning, madam ! How was your sleep? Did you sleep well?” said Alice. She pulled the curtains.
“The plumber will come today and fix the tap in the
bathroom. If you want, he can fix a new tap. If he
changes the tap, you know he asks for more money.”
Mrs Jackson didn’t answer her questions. Alice
knew this silence meant “Yes.”. Alice was in her
thirties and she was tall and slim with brown shoulder
length hair.
Mrs Jackson was changing her clothes while she
was trying to listen to her. Those days she didn’t have
any money. Unfortunately, the family members and
staff weren’t aware of the fact. Her son, Andrew, was
losing money at the games. She couldn’t tell him “No”
when he asked for money. Because she would

......................................
almost lose her only son in a traffic accident while she
was driving. Her husband died in the same accident. Andrew looked like her dad with curly blonde hair and healthy body.
Her niece, Jasmen, lived with them. She was very trendy and she spent too much money on clothes. What
about her fiancé, Mike? He was a real troublemaker. He was jobless and penniless, but Jasmen loved her fiancé a
lot. Though he was a heavy drunker, he was a real romantic and handsome. Jasmen was a short lady with short
black hair and eyes. She stood shorter near Mike and Mike was taller than Andrew.

When Mrs Jackson came into the kitchen, the gardener, Thomas stood up with a great respect. Thomas was a
short man, but he had a well-built body. Whenever he saw the lady, he blushed. He was very shy.
There was a man at the table, too. He stood up, too. She recognized the plumber. He was a tiny man. He was
slim and short with curly black hair.

Read the given detective story and try to solve the case.
Pam was a rich lady, but she married a
penniless man, Tom last year. After her ten
year loneliness, she met Tom in a street when
she was looking for a pair of sunglasses.
He was drinking coffee and reading his
newspaper in a coffee house when he realized
a mugger grapped her handbag and ran away.
He ran after him and took the handbag and
gave it back to Pam. Pam felt appreciated.
She invited him for a cup of coffee to her
mansion. Then, they met regularly and had a
good time until they got married last year.
Pam and Tom went on a holiday in Dubai
to celebrate their wedding anniversary. The
hotel was very crowded, but they could find a
good suite. A bell boy called Hasan brought
their suitcases. He looked very poor and
shy. Pam gave him soma tips, but he refused
the money.
Pam and Tom wanted to put their money
and jewellery into the safety box of the hotel.
The manager, Mr Abbas said “The safety box
of the hotel isn’t safe.”. Pam was surprised at
his answer. They decided to go to a bank and
put them in the bank but it was late. They had
to wait for the next morning.
When they went down for dinner, they
prefferred the Garden Restaurant of the hotel.
There were lots of huge wild flowers around
the tables and candles on the tables. Small
waterfalls were running in the garden. It was
raining, but the thick wooden shelters
protected them from the rain. Everything was
excellent except Tom’s illness. He was
suffering from stomachache and he had to go
to the toilet several times.
When they went to their room, they found
the door open. Someone broke into their room
and stole their money and jewellery.

Are you a cooperative family? If you are a cooperative family, everybody at home shares housework. Most
parents can’t educate their children well, so their children don’t want to obey the rules at home. So, most mothers
nag their children and lose their children´s trust. 1) ______________________ Like most parents, we want our
children to have a regular and an easy life in the future. For sure they need your help every time
2) ___________________ Shake and tell yourself you’re older than your children 3) ______________________

c)
Teenagers are out of touch with modern science and they cannot name a single scientist.
d) The results of the survey show the number of students is decreasing at the Science departments of
universities.
ONLY DEAD SCIENTISTS KNOWN BY STUDENTS
1. ____________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________ . A survey revealed this fact. Students, aged 13-16, took the survey
about famous scientists. An Exam Board carried out the survey. Isaac Newton (39%) and Albert Eistein (29%)
were at the top of the list. Marie Curie, Charles Darwin and Alexander Fleming were coming next. The students
stopped answering when they came to give the names of living scientists.. It is surprising that no students named
those scientists, for example Ian Wilmut and Professor Colin Pillinger. Ian Wilmut cloned Dolly the sheep and
Professor Colin Pillinger headed the Beagle 2 Space probe to Mars Project.
99
2. _____________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________ Eight out of ten students (79%) said scientists were clever, just 7%
said they were cool and fun. Over half (51%) of the students thought Science lessons were boring, or
difficult in secondary schools. The results show that they are not happy because Science is compulsory in
schools. The results also show that Science is not a favourite subject and there is a growing apathy about it among
teenagers.
3. _____________________________________________________________________________________
Universities report the number of Science students, Science teachers and lab technicians are decreasing at
universities. Also, there is a shortage of Science teachers and lab technicians. They are planning to help students
understand Science by touching on everyday subjects such as mobile phone.
4. _____________________________________________________________________________________
Over one third (39%) of the students preferred taking part in practical experiments for a good learning. 24%
of the students preferred having knowledge in classes.
All in all, we should take some precautions to raise students’ attention to Science for a good future. Students
may not see Science interesting, but they should appreciate and study it for their future.

1. What’s her problem?
2. What makes her eat too much in your opinion?
13 Read the text. Find what it is about.
The researchers have tried to find a treatment for obesity, This treatment can work the leptin. Leptin is a
protein hormone. It controls appetite. It is in adipose tissue. It regulates appetite and metobolism. In obese people
leptin loses its power. At Harvard Medical School, a research team tried to find a solution for that problem. They
said they treated two mice with two drugs. The researchers tried these two drugs in humans. Because the mice
overcame leptin problem and this gave hopes as a treatment for obesity.
“We are very excited and we will see the results of this treatment in humans.”, said Dr. Umut Özcan. He is a
doctor at Children’s Hospital in Boston and Harvard Medical School. His study appeared in the Journal Cell
Metobolism.
102
The researchers discovered leptin in 1995. The obese mice lost weight with leptin, but in obese humans it
didn’t bring success. Özcan said most obese people develop leptin resistance.
The hormone sends massage to stop eating, but
the brain doesn’t answer that.
ER is a stucture within the cells. There are
proteins.
In obese people, this structure can’t work well. It
also blocks incoming signals.
Özcan’s team set about trying re-sensitize
the brain to leptin. First, they fed two mice with a
high-fat diet. They put on weight and became fat.
Then, they gave them the two drugs. Finally, they
injected them with leptin.
“We have seen weight loss in those mice. We are
going to try these drugs in humans. We hope it will
work.” Özcan said.
Obesity is a global problem. Around 1.8 billion
people were overweight or obese in 2007. Drugs
haven’t worked enough and they have very bad side
effects.

b
Snake Granny was like a century plant tree. Nobody knew about her. She had immunity to snake bites. She
would pick up any snake, roll it around her wrist and then let it go.
Snake Granny was the loved one in the village and they invited her on their special days. She pierced the ears
of the young girls, pulled teeth and served as a midwife and the wedding ceremonies could not take place
without her. Wherever there was a fight, Snake Granny was there. She fought like a man.
Snake Granny’s face was full of wrinkles. Her nose was big. Because she had no teeth left in her mouth, her
chin touched her nose. Her gums were as strong as her teeth. Snake Granny was old but her heart was young. She
preferred bright flowery cotton clothes. Even her woollen belt was as colorful as the flowers from seven
mountains. She wore pink woollen socks. She put flowers behind her ears.
At weddings she competed with the young people and danced until they were exhausted. The other old
women were jealous of her and talked behind her back: “Snake Granny is without a care. She never worries
about anything.”
Snake Granny was not a rich woman at all. All she had a small land and a vineyard on the bank of a river. Her
vineyard was her pride and joy. She never stopped working in the vineyard. The river was under the vineyard.

One day in the summer, she had breakfast with
her family. Then, she decided to go to the vineyard.
That day, her son would cut the wheat in the field,
and the daughter-in-law would help him with her
children.
a
When she arrived at the vineyard, she was
exhausted. She went to the grape arbor. She wanted
to lie down and rest for a while. Suddenly, she was
surprised with the voices. She saw they were coming
from the bank of the river. She got up and went to the
bank.
Fifteen men were standing in the water and they
were building a wall in the middle of the river with
stones and branches. They wanted to divide the river.
So the water would flow into the hole which they
were digging. But, when the water would hit the wall,
it became wild and would flood Snake Granny’s land.
She looked around and she realized the coming
problem. She quickly ran towards them.
b
“Hey, what are you doing there?”, she shouted.
The men looked at her without stopping their
work. Then, they quickly turned their work. She was
surprised at their behaviour. She thought, “They must
be strangers.” It hurt her.
c
“As far as I can see, you are dividing the river, but
if you do this, my vineyard will be under the water.
You’re grown-ups, don’t you realize what you’re
doing?”
The men were silent and hurried with their work
while Granny was shouting.
d
115
The other man said: “Don’t forget what Şerif Ağa
said. We won’t pay attention to anybody. We won’t tell
anyone who we work for.”
e
She was in the water coming up to her knees. She
was near the men while she was waving her arms and
hands, but the men didn’t pay attention to her. She
became very angry. Their silence drove her crazy. She
attacked the wall.
The Foreman lost his temper and he took her out of
the river but she stood against him.
She gathered herself soon. She woke up and
started shouting and said: “I’ll pull it down.” “I’ ll pull
it down.”.
f
While she was shouting, she started to dance and
sing. The workers stopped to laugh at her strange
dance. In her wet clothes, her slight body was like a
snake’s. Her hair was wild. Her eyes were hot. “I will
pull it down! Can I do it? I can, I can.” She was
shouting while she was dancing. When the men
finished their work, they left fast. She rushed into the
water and started to pull the wall down. The river was
flowing harshly and the night was coming slowly.
In the evening, Granny’s son, her daughter-in-law
and her grandchildren came to the vineyard. They were
very tired after a long day. The cottage and the grape
arbor looked deserted. They found her dead body on
the sand. Her wet clothes and her hair were full of
sand. İsmail knelt by his mother and cried. “My brave
mother, my dear mother, what happened to you?”

15 Read the story of Defne Çanlıbel. First, find a good title for it.
She pulled the blanket over her shoulders. The wind was blowing through the cracks of the window. The snow
was getting thickened over the roofs. The yellow light of the street lamp was shining over the heads of the
people crossing the street. The room was empty and cold. They were so poor that they couldn’t pay the bill of the
electricity that month. There was an electricity cut.
She tried to study with the light of the candle and the light of the street lamp, but she couldn’t see properly
because of the weak light. Her eyes filled with tears. She wanted to study more. Because there was an important
exam the next day; University Entrance Exam.
Four years ago when she started the high school in the city, she promised herself to study regularly and to be
a doctor at the gate of the school. Defne was the fourth child of a family with nine children. Her father was a cook.
Her mother was a housewife. The family was having the shortage of money.
Her little brother, Umut was leukemia when Defne was in the 8th grade in the primary school. In a month they
lost their little brother, Umut, because there was not a proper well-equipped hospital and well-qualified
doctors. While she was walking 5 km - long school way from home, she told herself she would be a doctor, not
only be a doctor but also she would be a well-qualified doctor. She would travel around the country and cure the
sick children without charging for their treatment from their parents. She always kept her goals in her mind. Then,
she made a 5-year-plan. She focused on her hero-Hulusi Behçet. She would discover a new illness and give his
brother’s name to it.
1.
She graduated from the primary school with a great success. She was on the top 10 list. It wasn’t enough for
her.
2.
One day, one of their teachers in high school asked “What do you want to be?”. Almost half of the class
answered:
“I want to be a doctor.” and the other half answered “I want to be a lawyer.”. She answered “I want to be a
doctor, too.” with a slow voice.
Not much more, a few months later she realized that only a few students studied regularly. What happened to
the future doctors and the lawyers?
125
She was silent and shy in the class. She didn’t meet her friends after school, because she had to earn money.
So, she went babysitting for one of relatives in the city. While the baby was sleeping, she solved mathematical
problems and read the world classics.
The day before the exam there was not only a chilly cold outside but also at home, but the next day was hot
for her. She took the exam.
She entered the medicine faculty with her only one option. After six years, she chose to specialize in
cardiology. While she was in the medicine faculty, she was working as a shop assistant in a mall in İstanbul. Now
she is a prominent doctor not in the homeland but also in the world. She discovered a new illness and gave her
brother’s name to the illness.
3.
Defne Çanlıbel is my admirable Turkish friend. I met her in a medicine congress in Europe. She is the most
beautiful person whom I have ever seen with her broad smile and bright green eyes.

2 Read the response letter from Auntie Pam to June. Find what problem June has.
Hi, June,
Let me help you in this problem. Why do you feel you are
unsociable and nervous? This is really degrading yourself and it
causes to lose your confidence. OK. Let me tell you. You lose your
friends easily because you have trusted them so blindly that you break
up with big disappointings. It is time to make a decision. First of all,
identify your weaknesses and strengths and then your friend’s weaknesses and strengths for a good relationship. So, you can know each
other. If you know each other, you understand and identify your “do’s”
and “don’ts” better. Make a decision and stop thinking negatively. For
example, you´ve missed many people. Actually, they have missed a nice and cool person like you. You
should always keep up your confidence. So, you are not alone, but they have missed you and they
have become lonely.
You should learn to control your anger. When you feel you are under stress, stop and count until
5. If you are still under stress, leave the place as soon as possible. Don’t speak at that situation more
because you may say some unpleasant words and break your friends’ hearts. Please try to keep silent
when you get short-tempered or else leave the place immediately in case there is a blast of anger on
someone.
You must learn to tell “No.” in the exact time. If you delay your “No”s, you will tell a big “No”
in the wrong place and at wrong time. You don’t have to beg for your “No”s. Only give them good
reasons.
Finally, you know you can’t change others, but you can improve your strenghts and you can take
your weaknesses under control. If you know your friend’s weaknesses, you can take the events under
control.
Be sure everything will be better, but take the first step as soon as possible.
Good luck!

3 İpek is joining a language learning program for foreign students. İpek and her classmates are
discussing. First, read the dialogue. Then, work in groups. Evaluate your quiz papers and find
the similarities. Discuss giving reasons, explanations and examples. Pay attention to the
checklist.
:Do you think English people
speak too fast?
Checklist
Umaru
:Yes, I do.
— Describe something in a list.
Maria
:So do I. For example, two years
ago I met an English speaking
neighbor in the elevator. I only
said “Good morning.” and “How
are you?”. She looked nervous.
She complained about something,
but I didn’t catch even a word
while she was speaking. I only
nodded my head and looked at
her in sorrow.
— Give a short presentation.
İpek
Umaru
:I do not like speaking, because I
think I make too many mistakes.
How about you?
Maria
:Neither do I.
— Express your opinions.
— Give reasons and explanations in a list.
— Try to make your friends understand you.
— Correct your mistakes if you can.
— Say directly.
— Give a message.
— Go on speaking even if you stop or make a false start.
Fernando:Nor do I.
Umaru
:I think you’ll laugh at me if I make a mistake.
İpek
:So do I.
Fernando:Pardon? What do you mean? Do we laugh at you when you speak English?
Umaru
:Well... I mean I feel like that. I think my friends will laugh at me when I speak in English.
Fernando:I see. But don’t feel so. We never laugh at you.
İpek
:Do you write in English?
Umaru
:When I write to my English e-pals, I can write easily.
Maria
:Because you do not have to pay attention to the spelling and punctuation or capitalization.
İpek
:Yes, exactly.
Maria
:But when I write even a sentence in class, I get stuck because I think my spelling, punctuation and
capitalization are not good.
İpek
:So do I.
Fernando:I do not want to read in English because I do not know the meanings of the words.
Umaru
:Neither do I.
İpek
:I do not, either.
Umaru
:Once, I bought a story book in English. There were lots of colourful pictures in it. I read it with the
help of the pictures.
Maria
:Did you understand it?
Umaru
:Yes. At my first reading I understood the story. Then, I read it again. I understood the events of the
story.
Fernando:So, we’ll try again.

READING
1. At what age are students ready to learn a second language in classes?
2. Do students learn and use the second language in classes?
3. Do students have to give up using their accent?
5 İpek and her classmates are discussing. Read the speech bubbles and find what they are
talking about.
e)
f)
a)
In my view, today students are lucky,
because they can learn a second language in
classes with the help of the technology. So,
they can hear, speak and write in classes.
In my view, they have some difficulties in classes.
Once, I met a third grade child in a classroom with
a caring teacher but she didn’t give her any language
support. I recognized the child failed to read but she
learnt excellent strategies. She could hide what she
didn’t know.
g)
h)
b)
I think they don’t have to get rid of their accent.
For example, I don’t want to get rid of my accent
because it is a perfect signal of my identity.
c)
They must start learning a second language at
their early age.
i)
When my grandmother came to Germany, she
didn’t know any German and she did well without
any special help. Why can’t students learn
English on their own in schools? Furthermore,
many immigrants in the past were illiterate.
That’s the case, to me.
j)
d)
I think past immigrants didn’t learn the
whole language. They only learn enough
languge to go on their life in the foreign land.
143
It depends on the age of the learner, their
previous literacy.
Yes, they have to. Once I met someone
speaking English, but he had a strong accent,
so I couldn’t understand him.
Yes, I agree with you. Today many jobs
require the second language.
Because nowadays many jobs require a
foreign language. I mean people must speak a
foreign language if they want to get a job.

14 Read the texts once. Find what they are talking about.
I’m Thomas.
To me, reading is the easiest way to learn. I always
read for pleasure. I guess the meanings of the words in
the context. After reading, I write down the summary of
it so that I can remember the points later. And I always
visualize while reading so that I can concentrate on it.
Hi, I’m Jennifer. I think first, planning is the key to
the success. I always study the next subject of the lessons
before I go to class. This helps me improve my self
confidence and learn easily. Second, I always check
myself after class. Then I eat a bar of chocolate or watch
my favourite film on DVD as a reward. Finally, it may be
funny but I sit in front of the class so that I can follow the
lesson carefully.
146
Hi, I am Tim.
In my view, imitating is the easiest way of learning a
language. I always try to imitate other people’s speech, such
as a film character. I watch films, TV series and cartoons in
English. If they have their English subtitles, I read the teletext. So, I can understand easily and imitate at the same time.
Be sure it works. Have a try!
Hi, I’m Laura.
To me, repetition is the most important part in learning.
For example, when I learn a new word in class, I forget
easily in 24 hours if I don’t repeat it. You must repeat every
new item in English in four skills; listening, reading,
writing and speaking so that you can keep them in your
memory.

I’ll never forget the night when the earth
shook. It was pitch black in the middle of the
night. I was in a deep sleep when I woke up
with a start. It seemed there was no reason to
be frightened. But in a few seconds I rocked
just like I was in a cradle. I sat straight on the
bed. Something seemed wrong. It stopped.
There was a frightening silence just like the
earth stopped turning. The earth was still,
absolutely still and motionless. I knew
something was going to happen, but I didn’t
know what would happen.
Then it started again. First, the walls
began to shake. Then, the floor began to
shake over and over again. It didn’t just seem
to stop. I rushed to the door. Meanwhile, my
mind was talking to itself. “Is it an
earthquake? How long will it last? Is it a
small one or a big one?” I tried to stay away
from the windows.
“Shall we cut off the gas, electricity and water?” my sister shouted while she was rushing into the kitchen.
My mother was holding a survival kit. It was full of needs. I appreciated her in my mind. I gathered all family
members. Everybody was there.
“Let’s go for the stairs. Don’t use the elevator.” said my wife. We were climbing down the stairs while my
mind was still talking to itself.
At last we were outside and we were in my car. I started my car and drove. We heard the collapse of the
building behind us. We tried to go further away from the buildings, trees, telephones and electrical lines. When I
found a safe place, I took a deep breath and stopped the car. We looked at each other. We were lucky because we
were alive and together. We listened to the silence. My little son’s voice interrupted the silence. “Dad, why don’t
we listen to the the news?” said Henry showing his portable radio. I turned on the radio while I was trembling.
Could I believe it was over? We listened to the warnings from public safety agencies. It seemed to last for an hour,
but in fact it continued for only 15 seconds or so.

The Cookie Thief
A woman was waiting at an airport one night
There were several long hours before her flight
She sought a book in the airport shop
Bought a bag of cookies and found a place to drop
She was engaged in her book but she happened to see
The man next to her was too bold
Grasped a cookie or two from her bag between them
She tried to ignore him
She munched the cookies and watched the clock
While this cookie thief diminished her stock
She was getting more frustrated while the minutes ticked by
Thinking “If I wasn’t so nice, I’d blacken his eye”
With each cookie she took, he took one too
And when only one was left she wondered what he’d do
With a smile on his face and a nervous laugh
He took the last cookie and broke it in half
He gave her half as he ate the other
She snatched it from him and thought “Oh brother
This guy was also rude
Why he didn’t even appreciate”
She didn’t even know when she felt so frustrated
She felt relieved when she heard her flight
She gathered her bag and went to the gate
Without looking back at the thief
She boarded the plane and sat in her seat
Then sought her book
It was almost complete
As she opened her bag she cried out with surprise
There was a bag of cookies in front of her eyes
If mine are here she said
“Then the others were his and he tried to share”
“Too late to apologize she realized with sorrow”
That she was the rude one, the thief.
