I have a big problem on my own. I want to tell about this problem with my mother. Even though I have mention to my close friends about it, they have said that I exaggerate the problem, greatly. At first, I must say my mother is such a bore. She is always poking her nose into my business. For instance; when I intend to purchase some outfits, she comes with me and also insist on buying the cheapest. It's not wrong to say that she is a mean person. What's more, she is always saying that I must study more no matter how hard I try to study. She looks down on me among my friends and treats me even if she is not one of my parents. I can say, sometimes I also think I'm not her daughter. Moreover, she persists I should drink a glass of milk, every night in spite of my refusal. Probably, my mother means well, yet I wish she would stop treating like a child. I don't know what to do. What would you do if you were me?

In recent years, the government in Turkey has closed some web sites by bringing forward that these web sites have a bad effect on public. I don't agree this idea and find this opinion humorous. Firstly, closing a site completely is not necessary and they can prohibit just the parts not being appropriate for public order. It seems to me that it would be more logical. Secondly, sometimes people need documents which are found only in closed sites. The government prevent people from doing their important works by the means of closing web sites. Thirdly, the government has no right for restrict citizens' lifes. It is true that some children are affected from the terrible videos or something else at the web sites but it's parents' duty to care for their children. In a nutshell, creating difficulties for people is not a good thing. Everybody has a freedom of choice about what they will do.

There is always a discussion about downloading something from the Internet, freely. This action should be legal or illegal? In my opinion, people should be permitted to download music, films, videos etc. I think in this way because I can show some reasons about for the subject. First of all, some people can't find enough money for buying CDs of films, sings, so they apply for downloding documents from the Net without paying anything. People all need to enjoy themselves and have a good time in their free times. This is an important reason for me. Secondly, famous persons can maintain their lifes although their products are downloading, freely. Actually, they earn sufficient money from concerts, TV programs, shows etc. Other people think that there is a shame on people doing this work and people should be more respectful for celebrities' effort. However; the famous can be tolerant to people who don't have money for buying their products. They just want to listen and watch something.

Thesis statement: I think that downloading music, films etc. from the Internet, freely must be legal. I wish people could download what they wanted without paying any money.
Reason for 1: Some people can't find sufficient money for listening the music and watching some films. Also they can not buy CDs of these documents.
Example 1: People need some entertainment in their lifes and money shouldn't be a handicap for this.
Reason for 2: The celebrities whose sing and films are downloaded by a lot of people have enough money to survive, actually. They also earn millions and billions from their sectors.
Example 2: Famous persons obtain much money from concerts, TV programs etc. Some people's downloading their products shouln't be disagreed, firmly.
Reasons against: The general idea among people is that downloading something, freely is a very bad action. They think people must be restpectful to celebrities' effort and this action is illegal.
Refutation of opponent's argument: In my opinion, ones who don't have enough money should be able to the things they want. They have no harm to anyone while doing this work and famous people don't lose much money. At least, they earn money with which they can maintain their life. They should be tolerant to ones who don't have money.

BEIJING

I want to give information about a nice city, Beijing in China. If I mention about its function in China, it is the capital of the country. It is a fantastic city with its public, cultural and commercial life. Predictably, a lot of people live in the city and to cap it all there are much noise and also traffic congestion. Nevertheless, it is one of most important cities in the world. It has managed to be a commercial central in spite of being a crowded city. Furthermore, you can find several activities and facilities for entertainment. For instance, I have heard of a popular band's giving concert, every week. As to its economical quality, you can purchase everything you desire to have, cheaply. Actually, there is no necessity for bargaining with shopkeepers. Contrary to what people say, all of the purchases aren't imitation there. I must say people in China are really hardworking as well as friendly. Nearly all of them go to work on time without fail. Moreover, it has fame for its natural beauties. In brief, Beijing with its all functions is a city which should be visited.

EDUCATION IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

For many years, some universities in Turkey use English as education language. I can't understand which aim they have while educating the students in a foreign language. Our country gets several disadvantages owing to the education in this way. At first, people, especially young ones, lose their national identity and forget the traditions they should learn, thorougly. They try to treat like foreigners since they are trained to behave in such a way. Secondly, students taking education in a foreign language have difficulties in learning the subjects. Actually, education in this way is meaningless for the ones who don't studying at foreign language deparment. Thirdly, students studying at universities which use this system feel the need for going abroad and improving their language skills. That's why, their families and they have to waste not only money but also time for this work. In conclusion, I am against the education in a foreign language because of its negative sides.

EUTHANASIA

You must have heard of euthanasia, which is also defined as death right. In recent years, many people have chosen this method in order to die. I don't think people have right for killing themselves within this way. I say so because there are some reasons about the subject.Firstly, I must point out that some people think an individual can use euthanasia to die since patient's family suffers his/her illness. On the contrary, family members are responsible for patient's needs and they should take care of the patient as soon as possible. They are in charge of him until he dies. Secondly, patient and his family should be hopeful for recovery. Before applying for euthanasia, they should take into consideration that illness will be disappeared because there is hope for every situation. Thirdly, some people may want to have profits through euthanasia. For instance; persons carrying out this action can earn much money if they intend. All in all, euthanasia don't have good effects on people and it shouldn't be made legal for moral rules.

THE STAIN ON THE RUG

Last year, my friend let me spend the weekend at his seaside cottage. While staying there, I tried to be careful not to damage the things in the cottage. Unfortunately, I spilt some coffee and stained an expensive rug. I thought that she would be angry about it since the rug has a great importance and also worth for her. I felt guilty so much that I thought she would not let me spend another day at her cottage. Therefore, I said that I would make up for that irritating incident. The problem was on my hands, so I promised to solve it, immediately.I started to clean the rug as soon as possible. In the end, I managed to remove the stain and took a breath.Of course, my friend also forgave me, so I love her so much.

I think that living in the same place permanently is really proper for people life. Firstly, maintaining a regular life provide a successful career to people. Secondly, they don't have to keep pace with a new life, new friends, new places by the means of it. Thirdly, people who have a reguler life become more happy and feel comfortable in society. Lastly, travelling during life is extremely tiring for most of the people. In contrast, some other people belive that changing the place you live in, continuosly is an enjoyable situation. They say that people gain different experiences by virtue of this. Moreover, they think these people learn new things and have a knowledge in every subject. In spite of everything, it seems to me that, having a regular life is better than going from one place to another in a short time.

Thesis statement: It's better to live in just one place during people's life.
Reason for 1:People maintain a regular life by virtue of this.
Example 1:People are more succesful at work or school since they live in the same place during their life.
Reason for 2:They don't keep up with new places and persons.
Example 2:They have good relationships with their friends because they are together all the time.
Reasons against:Other people think that living in the different places is good and enjoyable for people. They say the person can be social by changing his place, continuosly.
Refutation of opponent's argument:People can not keep up with the new lives in a short time. Travelling all the time is tiring for them. Leaving their places is difficult so they do that, unwillingly.

SHOULD WE BELIEVE THE ADVERTISEMENTS?

In the world, in several countries, advertising has a wide reputation. Advertising is seen more important than television programs, but I'm against the advertisements like most people. Of course some ads are enjoyable and also hilarious. That's why, enjoying the advert is really usual for us. Some ads reflect the real on the television, so we can rely on the product is really useful. In spite of that, most of the advertisements which are produced aren't factual. Therefore, many people are confused of that issue. I must say we watch ads more than television programs, movies, etc... Programs go on ten minutes, possibly the advertisements go on fifteen minutes, approximately. On the other hand, the ads are elaborated for obtaining public demand, yet it's really pity that everyone can't buy the product they desire. In conclusion, when the ads are being produced, it should be thought again and again. Experts must be more sensitive for respect, honesty and humanity.

EDUCATION IN CLASS OR ON THE INTERNET?

Some people prefer taking courses in the class while others prefer online courses. It goes without saying that, both of them have some advantages in education. However, I would choose the classical method where the courses are done in the class, with a teacher if someone gave me freedom of choice. Firstly, it's much better to take a course face to face, so the one can learn what is expected from him, more easily. Secondly, he can strenghten his communication skills in the class by talking over an issue. Thirdly, the teacher treats the subject in great detail by using the visual aids. This is an essential advantage for students. Taking the courses on the internet is not only easy but also pleasing, in the student's opinion. On the contrary, the student can't reach the Net every time he wants; besides, the internet may be broken off while he is at online education. It seems to me that, online education is not convenient to general education systems. Shortly, classical method in education is more advantageous than the other although the technology has an important role in people's lives.

We see two different places in the pictures. Both of them are local places and they can be used by the public. I can say that both of the places have pictures which are made by hand. Moreover, it's possible to realize there are some posters and announcement papers. If I mention the differences about them, in the picture on the left, everything is at outdoor. There are some furniture and also some chairs for sitting. It's so because people can take fresh air by the means of that. For example, the green trees make me feel in freshness. In addition, we understand there is a national building by seeing flags of different countries. In the second picture, we are in
a close place and so it makes me feel bad. But there is an aquarium which has a turtle, some fish and other animals. This is a relaxing thing for people.However, I prefer the sea in the first picture.Shortly, the first place is more pleasing for me than the other.

EDUCATION

In recent years, in Turkey, education system is an issue which has been debated on. Everybody has a different idea about this issue and they want to do things which they desire. This means that Turkey has an issue of great complexity. It seems to me that, it is really hard that the complexities of education are to be taken. Education is the most important issue in a country. If education system isn't durable, other factors aren't durable, as well. The government must be more sensitive about the issue. Approximetly for ten years, the government has changed education system many times. An education system has been used only for three years,then another system has come to be implemented. In addition, in our country, some teachers don't have adequate information at their business and they are indifferent. Either knowledge isn't taught to students or knowledge taught is forgotten by students, so education system has no efficiency. If education of a country is efficient, both economy and other factors have adequate quality. If we evaluate all the situations, firstly we should learn how to treat together. We need well-educated individuals in order to increase the quality of education.

THE TREMENDOUS PARTY

The big party my friends and I arranged for Cansu's eighteenth birthday last year was unforgottable. Frankly, forgetting this impressive birthday party must be impossible for eevrybody. To start with, if I mention about preparations for the party, I can say everything was considered in detail. We took a decision to make the party at home. Gizem and Selin were responsible for preparing a cake and shopping for some food and also drinks. Others had cleaned the house up until the big day. After the tiring housework, a lot of balloons were hung on the ceiling of the room. Several bottle of coke were bought, yet I had nothing to do with it, still. The cake was cooked after the dishes to be used had already been washed. I bought many new CDs Cansu would be impressed with. A few people were called for invitation, afterwards some of us picked a bouquet of flowers and arranged them in a vase for Cansu. As to the big day, Cansu looked up in surprise when she heard we were shouting that ' Many happy returns of the day '. She could fail conceal her excitement as well as happiness from us due to that magical scenery. But then, we had forgotten an important point; a match to be used for lighting candles. As it happens, one of the invited guests had one. After Cansu blew out the candles on the birthday cake, songs were sung, games were played. There wasn't enough food, nevertheless; everybody enjoyed themselves at the party in the circumstances. The people at the party were all dressed in brightly coloured costumes in harmony. It just so happened that Cansu was also wearing a beautiful dress. At the end of the party, Selin sang such a traditional song of her own accord that we all were fascinated with. In brief, I must say all of us had a glorious night by virtue of that party. It goes without saying that, we will remember that night, forever.
