literature

I think literature should be a must course. Because we have lots of poems,novels etc... These are parts of our culture. For a nation, culture is the most important thing. A country needs to develop to have a better life standarts. As we know,this happens firstly to teach our culture to our new generation.And this partly happens with literature courses. So we must take this course. Taking this course also helps us for many ways. After this course we learn to comment on some subjects effectively. Moreover at this subject, teachers are also effective... Teacher should motivate students positively. These increase participation to this course...

country and city

There are always so many differences between city and country life. While some people choose to live in a city, others choose country. Because people want to live in a quiet and natural place... This shows that those people choose country life... Although there aren't many facilities like in a city,tehy are happy with their life. But some people want to ive in a place where there are many shopping malls,theatre,cinema. City has advantages that you can find everything you want. But for a country this isn't the same. Finally as we see,there are lots of options. The best way we should define the place we want to live in,then settle down there and try to live happily...

Downloading freely

Nowadays people thinks that it should be banned to download MP3s or films freely... It isn't acceptable to download its copy instead of buying its original...Because they spend lots of effort to create a product... And also there shoud be a reward for this… Owing to the technology it becomes more easier to download MP3s freely … So unfortunately most of people use copy ones … People think that producer are alreay rich,and they don’t need to money coming from the original sales… But it is not true… Because singers and producers gain the money from this sales. So people should be more careful about this subject… And people say that original ones are too expensive to buy and so they use copy ones…But when we think all the things to produce an album or film, we find out, in fact, it is not too expensive…Moreover downloading MP3s freely means that you don't respect singer's labor and albums...

EutHaNaSiA

Euthanasia is used if a patient doesn't get well,and there is no hope for this,ending someone life... But I think it is not acceptable. Because whatever happens,there is always a hope for every thing. Some times, the moment we don't have any hope, some thing comes up, and we are very surprised for this... Also this may be in that occasion... Of course it is more logical to die, instead of living in pain... However humans always have a right to live,and this right is protected in every occasions...
Firstly,I think money is not a reason for ending his life... Because living is more important than other all things..
Second, if a person loves other much,every day going to him,even if he doesn't show any improvement,isn't difficult for her/him...Because it is too important being with him both good and bad days...
Finally, whatever happens we don't have a right to end one's life ...

Nuclear power plants have both advantages and disadvantages... It can explode any failure and it causes permanent damages..And it very useful for producing electric energy...

two places

The place where I went to first there are very luxurious houses...And the houses are made mainly of glass...The houses aren't very big but they are very fascinating...They must be very expensive...The second place I went,there are designed as big houses. They are not too luxurious... And houses are made mainly of brick...Also these houses have roof...Moreover there are pools in front of the houses... On the contrary to these all differences,there are also similarities between these two places...The area where these houses are set a green field... There are shopping-malls in both areas...And also there are cushions in terraces...

smoking

In fact there is no difference in smoking this age and slavery in old ages. Now smokers seem as second class citizens. And it is proved that the warning sentences on the cigarette box doesn't working. It is banned to smoke at lots of places. From early years smoking not only kill people but also damage a lot to them. And the people smoking aren't freedom. They don't smoke every where they want. Because it is banned to smoke indoors. Also there is penalty for whom don't obey the banns.

We are living in a small village. Of course not too many people goes the school. But was am very decisive to join a good university. Those days,I was studying very much... Finally I had the exam,and began to wait for the revealing. I found out that I had very high score... And I chose METU... This was very surprised all of us... My parents also proud of me... They were too happy for my degrees... And I have never forgotten it :)

narrate

It was a rainy and cold night. And there was a lonely child sitting on a bank in the city park. He seemed really like a homeless child. And there was nobody around the park except from him. He was really hungry and he couldn’t bear this situation anymore and started to search something that he could eat. Then he saw a market. But, he hadn’t had any money. He entered the market there was nobody around. He rapidly took something that he would eat. But the shop owner noticed him and accused him stealing something from his market. But, said child that he wouldn’t do anything. They talked for a while. Then the market owner gave something to eat to child. And child promised not to do this any time.

Internet Addiction

Nowadays the number of PC users is increasing. For some people internet isn't a source of knowledge,but becomes an addiction. So,especially families should be more careful about this problem. They should control their kinds about using PC.
The one who addicted to internet,always use PC more than the defined time,and the time passed while using PC never enough for him,and permanently increase.
If you get out of this addiction,you can get your PC to another room which you use rarely,and the times you don't use it,power off PC. Than you can make a plan which show how much time to use PC and when you receive your e-mails...

To Make A House

We tried to build a house in SL.We shared the task. Some of us created the wall and some created the roof. First of all we used the 'build' button. And then selected the tube. Then we selected the size of tube. We all worked together,so it was easy to make a house. Finally we created a nice house...

the second group

Fog is everywhere. Fog is up the river,where it flows among green aits and meadows,fog is down the river,where it rolls defiled among the tiers of shipping and the waterside pollutions of a great city. Fog is on the Essex marshes,fog is on the Kentish heights. Fog is creeping into the cabooses of collier-brigs;fog is lying out on the yards and hovering in the figging of great ships;fog is dropping on the gunwales of borges and smallboats. Fog is in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners wheezing by the firesides of their words;god is in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper,down in his close cabin;fog is cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering littie prentice boy on deck.Chance people on the bridges are peeping over the parapets into a nether sky of fog,with fog all arund them,as if they were up in a balloon and hanging in the misty clouds.

classification

We can divide the people who use the second life into three groups according their aims. The people in first group use the SL to make new friends.They go to new places in game and speak other people.And this way they make lots of friends. And the second group’s people use this for only funny.They change the appearances of their characters,play different games. The third group use to develop their English. They meet people and speak them in English.

My best friend

Hi,I want to introduce you my friend. His name is Ural. He is from Muğla. First time we met in a dormitory 4 year ago. And from that time we have been each other. In school,at home etc. We joined the activities, football teams... The things we did have changed a lot, but there is a thing not changed. It is our frienship. He is like my brother,there is no difference between them. I think this is a perfect sense having a friend,who are always with you,in happiness and sadness.

an interesting passion

From my early ages,I am very interested in music,especially for drumm.
I remind,when I was 6,we went to a saloon. There were a lot of people in there. Every body is dancing and they are all very happy. But in contrast to them, I was busy with a different thing. It was only observing the drummer :) I was care of the actions of him while playing the drumm.
Then,we went back to home. I was trying to do actions which I saw. It was a wonderful passion for me. And now,I can play the drumm :) Although I'm not a professional,it is enough for me :) And I learn that there isn't anything which people want and not to do :)
