DOWNLOADING MP3

Nowadays everyone says that downloading musics without paying any money should be banned; but, noone doesn't wonder why people download musics in this way.People say that if you get someone's belonging without permission, this is called theft;but,I think it is not.Firstly because the prices of music albums is so high.So everyone can not afford to buy them paying high money.If prices are avaliable for many people,there is no need for downloading them without paying any money.Secondly today the singers are so selfish.You can ask how?They gain money from selling their songs and the more they gain the more they want.They don't consider other people who want to listen but can not afford to buy them with high prices.Finally their aim is some different.They want to become a rich person by doing this job.So if someone download a music without paying any money,the singer who sings this song says that my song is stolen.Because she/he thinks the rights about this song belong to himself/herself.
In conclusion,people who defend banning downloading music without paying any money should think why many people use this way.

DOWNLOADING MP3

Nowadays everyone says that downloading musics without paying any money should be banned; but, noone doesn't wonder why people download musics in this way.

People think that this is necessary because the singers need this money.

Supporting 1:The prices of music albums is so high.
Supporting 2:The singers are so selfish that they don't consider other people.
Supporting 3:They want their albums to be sold to become rich.

THE LITARATURE

We all will be an english teacher in the future.And we are now in METU.Of course litarature is an important lesson for us.So it must be a must course for our understanding  the past and applying our knowledge in written.We learned that an efficient teacher has some qualificiations.For example general culture.When we become a teacher,maybe we will not teach litarature to our students.But if we want to be a well-developed teacher ,we should have the knowledge of litarature.This facilitates effective teaching for us and effective learning for students.So we should learn much about this lesson.Also,we can make academic degree in METU.If it is so,we need lots of knowledge like knowledge of litarature.Becauae to make an academic career in a university especially like METU.We should have a vast and deep knowledge of each lesson.

REFUTATION OF EUTHANASIA

Nowadays this is used more often.I think if a person is in coma,this shouldn't be allowed.Because they have chance to recover completely.So even fatally ill patients shouldn't be allowed to die.
Some people say that money is not enough to recover hım/her.But money can not be a reason for it.Money can be found by several ways such as charities,companies...Also money is not important than one's life.Living,breathing,hearing.seeing...These are indispensable parts of life.
some people say that family suffers from that too much.Of course they do but this is much better than not seeing their lovers anymore.İf they allow to die their lover,they can not see him/her anymore.
Some other people also say that the patients have no chance to recover fully.But everyone has this chance.This is called miracle.Nobody knows what will happen in future.So euthanasia shouldn't be allowed.
In conclusion,euthanasia is not an acceptable reason.Everything is possible....

SMOKING

Harmful effects of smoking are easily seen our life. It affects our social life and our family in bad way...Today lots of people smoke but I am sure that many of them are not aware of it's bad effects.I think it affects us in two ways.Firstly our social life is destroyed by it.That's to say,relationships between people are important and these important values are getting looser because of smoking,but, nobody sees this disaster.Even when I explain these results to people who smoke,they only laugh.As for second way,it damages our family life.There have been many couples who break up because of bad results of smoking.I think the most important effect of it is breaking family relationships.Because when a couple  broke up and if there is a child,this was a disaster for him/her.That is to say,we can say many bad results like these.Especially nowadays these people are getting more aware effects of it.

WHICH ONE IS BETTER??

For years there have been an argument.Which one is better?Country or city.Some say that there are many opportunities in city like cinema,sport centers,restaurants,tourist attractions.Also in city job opportunities are much more avaliable for people and these opportunities are vast and variety.On the other hand,some say that country is much more beautiful.Because the air is fresh and the nature is wonderful.Maybe there are enough opportunities for enjoying and working;but,you can not find peace and comfort anywhere except for country.They also say that the traffic jam and air pollution in cities make living there difficult.People who like city and people who like country have been arguing for years by saying these advantages and disadvantages of each.In fact each of you has good and bad sides.If a person who is living in a city is fed up with bad sides of it,he/she should go to country and take some rest and peace.

THE COMPARISON

I went to two different places.In one of them there is a pool in the middle.Also there is a animal which is similar to a turtle.I think this place is a shopping mall that is two storey.So there are many shops around.It is too vast.Also in the pool there are many fish.As for the another places,I think it is a touristic place like a holiday village.So there are many buildings.I think they are hotels.In front of them,there are many national flags.Also this places is near the sea.There is a blaze outside and around it there are so many cushions to sit.Here is a wonderful place.Because it's landscape is glamorous.There are lots of chairs which are around tables.

DOING SPORT

Doing sport is so important for people.It is not only related with physical health but also related with psychological health.Sport is like medicine that helps people to encounter the problems of stress.If you do sport activities, you feel yourself more healthly than you are.But to do sport and to benefit from sport,the age in which you are is also too important.That is to say,if you stay in fit and be healthy you should join some sport activities that is suitable for your age group.For examle,I am 19 years old and for me there are lots of activities to do such as playing football,swimming,jogging etc.But some people whose ages are not suitable for these activities should do easier and more less tiresome activities.Also all activities should be done according to some basic rules.If you do them according to these rules, you are more likely to become regret.Because you can hurt any part of your body.

PRIDE


We live in a village in Muğla.My village is near to many touristic places such as Fethiye,Marmaris,Göcek,Akyaka.So many people even many young in my village go to these places to work.All families want their child to go to a high school and a university.But these attractive events don't let the young think a good future.Under these circumstance me and my brother went to a good high school and a wonderful university.Because of that my family are proud of us.Everybody talked about me and my brother.When my family heard this,their pride about us doubled.Owing to us my family feel like that and this makes me very happy.Now I am here in METU.Most probably my job opportunities will be so extensive.Also this makes my family more proud.

THE INTERNET

The internet is a tecnology that provides lots of informations to people.From job to home internet is always around us.Now it is a part of our lives.Though it is wonderful and useful tecnology,it has some disadvantages.Now lots of people become an internet addictioın.Some people spend much of their times in front of the screen.Also it can change according to people who are on internet.24 hours,10 hours,5 hours or like me only 2 hours a day.It can not rejected that the internet lots of advantages like providing informations,communicating people,working on our projects,doing our tasks and some other advantages.But it has disadvantages like not going out to communicate people.That is,using always internet makes people less social.There is no face to face communication if we go on using internet so often.For example one of my friends is completely an internet addiction.If I didn't say anything most of the day he would go to internet and stay there for hours.

Charles Dickens - Paragraph 1


It was a drizzly Thursday night in London. The feast of St. Michael the Archangel was lately over and the Lord of Chancellor was sitting in Lincoln’s Inn Hall anxiously. There  was merciless November weather outside.There was so much mud in the streets that one would think the earth had just been out of a very heavy rainfall and it would not be wonderful to meet a Megalosaurus which has roughly forty feet long, waddling like an elephantine lizard up Halborn Hill. As smoke was lowering down from chimney-pots, it was making a spongy mizzle, with flakes of soot in it. It was as big as full-grown snowflakes,which had gone into mourning, one can imagine for  the sunset.Dogs were undistinguishable in swamp.Horses were scarcely better and splashed to their very blinkers.Foot passengers were pushing each other’s umbrellas in a general infection of ill temper, and lost their foot-hold at street-corners, where tens of thousands of other  foot passengers have been slipping and sliding since the day broke.(if this day ever broke).They added new deposit to the crust upon crust of mud, stuck at those points, constantly to the pavement and accumulated at compound interests.

PEOPLE İN METU

There are lots of people in METU and many of them are different from eachother.When we think that, if we want to categorize these people,several factors and facilities effect this categorization.That is,people in METU can be divided into many groups.For example according to their purposes of coming to METU,I think people can be classified three groupds.First group come here to be educated such as students.Second group come here to earn their life by working in campus such as workers.The last group come here to do their professions such as teachers.Also students in METU can be divided into some groups according to some facilities such as their ages,their departmens,their dormitories,their hobbies,etc...In METU students can be classified as a number of groups according to their hobbies.But the number of these groups is unlimited.Because hobbies are too flexible to be limited.

TERRİBLE ACCİDENT:(

An accident is so terrible,isn't it? For me yes it is.Because eight years ago I had a terrible accident.I went to school by my bike.For launch I came back home.I ate something and I again set off to go school.While I was going to school,in a junction there was a car coming towards me.I noticed the car but it was too late.I didn't remember anything from after that.Soon after when I opened my eyes, I saw my father with his tearful eyes.At that moment they were taking me to a hospital by car.I stayed in hospital three days.During these days my futher and my mother waited for me in hospital in case any important occasion might happen.Fortunately I am alive now and from all of these I know very well what the living means.

I asked several people why they are using second life and I received three different answers.So I can divide people into third categories according to their purposes of using second life.The first group is using second life for fun,the second group is using second life for meeting different people and the last group is using second life for being in real life.Because the members of last group think that second life is about real life.

MY BROTHER, UYGAR

All of my life, I really trusted only one person. He is my brother, Uygar.He is a teacher of Turkish in Afyon.He is 28 years old.I encountered many problems and he always helped me to cope with these problems sometimes by doing that directly sometimes by doing that indirectly..I always wanna be like him but he doesn't.He always wants me to be in better conditions than himself.We both played football or did any other sports like swimming together and sometimes we argued badly but in the end we reunited again.And I always say that fortunately I have a brother like him.

I always dream a place like this.It is a place which is combined with blue and green.There is a sea almost everywhere in this photo.But there are some trees, I think they are palm trees.As we see there are lots of stones in the sea.I think the sea is so deep but it is so clean that we can see easily the bottom of the sea.Also in the slope of mounts there are two cottages.they are small but enough for people which are there..At the right side of photo there is a mountain range.When we look the place opposite, we see a sailboat in port but the port is too small.The sky is completely blue so I think the time is the mid of day.The sea is so beautiful.Swimming in sea like here is my dream ans if there is a place around here like that,I go there without doubt.
