PROBLEM SOLUTION PARAGRAPH 2.DRAFT

Boredom,especially school boredom, is the feeling that occurs among students when they feel themselves different in the borders of school.This feeling damages the student's success and mental,emotional  power.There are some certain solutions/steps that can be applied to decrease and in the end finish this feeling.Firstly, Families should encourage their children to go to school and advise them to be themselves at school,not a different person.Families should give interest to their children.They should not ignore their children who are being under big stress at school.Mothers and Fathers should talk with their children about whether they have difficulty in being social at school.They should do some other things apart from giving money or providing them with the necessary materials regarding school.They should listen to their problems and solve these problems together.The second advice/solution is that school management,teachers should not make students feel disgusted by school.That is, They(teachers) should make students love school and enjoy while there.It is the responsibility of school management.They should not force students only to participate in exams and get high points.Teachers should make students be social and powerful citizens as well as successful individuals.Students aren't racehorses nor are they inhumane creatures.They are as human as teachers,governors,soldiers,doctors,lawyers are.They should be treated like so.The last advice which can be seen impossible for the Turkish Education System now is that abolishing the obligation that students should participate in lessons regularly and every day.Instead of constraining students to sit in the chairs passively the whole day,giving them the choice of coming when they want and not coming when they don't can be more useful for both the students,their families,teachers and for the society.Students may not wish to come to school sometimes.During these times,Families and Teachers should know how to react to them.They should be careful about what to do.Families and Teachers should be understanding.To sum up,minimizing school boredom and its effects on students calls for the responsibilities of families,teachers(school management) and the abolishment of attendance imperative.

If you won't cooperate--

I don't know where a headset ties into patriotism.

Reflection Task 3

Today,we will be determining the man of the year who is to have different qualities and eye-catching abilities.I am one member of the jury that will select the winner.My candidate for this race shall certainly get this award and his name will be written in golden letters on the papers of history,at least in my opinion,I suppose so.His some features are really impressing when you hear some of them you may even pass out yourself.He is an uneducated man from an average family.He is 17.He can speak languages like English,French and Italian.These characteristics are like an ear at a camel.He has been awarded in a motoGP race for being 2nd in the race with the motobike which he has designed himself even its engine and style.He also gets this motobike's patent from The International Patent Union(IPU).He has been nominated as the man who is the most technic.Nevertheless He has not been selected not because He isn't qualified enough but because He is a Muslim and Turk,as well.But I can not see any mistake to say these wrongs here.I believe strongly that this time he will be selected and all world will see the capacity of the Muslim and Turk worlds to participate in a race with The West or the whole world.Anyhow.He has also certain abilities,also.He is interested in science and technology.He is working on a syber war system that will be beneficial for Turkey and the other countries where Muslims and Turks live mostly.He has also the ability of knowing and solving advanced mathematical and physical problems.He is also capable of having information about The Space.He has got many calls from NASA to administer it.He wanted to work there.But a cunning game was played there on him and he was not chosen,again.the reason for this is that because he does not have any oversea experience.Is it really logical to eliminate such a man just due to that explanation.Anyhow,working together and being in co-operation,We will get over such men who are at our jury,against this man and make this man be "man of the year" and we shall give him a chance to be known all around the world.I am relying on you and together We will show the world who is much stronger they or we?

A DIFFERENT VERSION OF VIVA LA VIDA

I used to have lots of land from the place sunrise to sunset

Breaths would cease when I roared

Now in the morning I lost my eyes They were burned with hot melt lead

I can not send those glances that I used to do

I used to govern all people from every place

Listen as the crowd would spell my name loudly

Now They are swearing at it whenever they hear it

One minute I can't have been so It must be dream

next I wanna wake up from this nightmare

I discovered that It was not a nightmare or dream.It was the reality

Draft Work

There have been many clear effects/results of the spreading of English on different people all around the world from West to East,from North to South.However,I want to give examples from my own country,Turkey.Firstly English is being spoken by at least half of the world's population either as a mother language or a second foreign language.It is used in negotiations between world's richest and most powerful countries like The USA,UK or Canada.The undeveloped or developing countries are forced to learn English to understand and keep up with the globalisation amongst these countries..In Turkey,because Turkey has not developed enough to supply its needs itself,It has to be in touch with The West.As a result of that,Turkey must give priority to English.We are to  follow the scientific developments of them.However here appears a problem.It is language,mostly English.We should learn it anyhow to get these progresses.Another result of English's rising on my own country is that it has been affecting us both in terms of culture and social life since the last 200 years of The Ottoman Empire..For example,When you  wander in the streets of such cities as Istanbul,Ankara,Izmir or Antalya,you surely come across interesting signboards or shopnames which consist of half English and half Turkish.It is an effect of English's rising in our country.The peoples of these cities.not all of them,though,tend to speak half English half Turkish to make themselves seem to be different.Such as, instead of saying "cay ocagı" some even dare to write "Tea January".And also many people from especially urban areas get dressed in the same way as The Americans or The English do.Our people have changed or are changing their eating,drinking,sleeping,walking,playing,watching habits even sitting just because English has spread and is becoming a world-language.We are watching their films,cartoons and trying to imitate their culture.The last/third consequence of English's being popular is that there are many books,dictionaries,booklets,course packs published in English.Many stationeries have a lot of English-Turkish dictionaries even for an elementary school student.In our education system,English is an obligatory second language.It is another effect.There are many courses,language offices regarding English all over Turkey.We,students of Turkey,are to buy books regarding English to finish our education or be more successful and We have to pay too much money for them.To sum up,English has spread,is spreading and will continue to spread all over the world similar to or different from the way it has spread in my own country(I don't know how it will all over the world)

Reflection Task 2-b(here is its link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRPW5bB3GCI you can find this video on youtube and watch it:))

The video I want to make my subject is really funny.I will write my personal thoughts about this video and this video's main character Sabri Yıldız or "Flying Man Sabri".He is an interesting person and maybe the most interesting person that I have heard so far.In a TV program he was called to attend,He was sitting there and told the amazing stories he had lived.This program was broadcast on Kanal D,the program date 21/03/2009, and this program's presenter was Esra Ceyhan who had very bad feelings on this program.There were some guests on the program.I suppose an Expert or a psychiatrist who wanted to help The Flying Man and find out the psychological problems He was encountering.A famous singer Tarık Mengüç was also the guest of this program.Everything was going well.The presenter,Esra Ceyhan,was asking questions to The Flying Man,Nevertheless She,along with the other people,on the studio did not believe in the claim of Sabri Yıldız that He could fly.He said that He had the ability to stay in the air without any backup like a chair,a chain from the top etc.He said that He had eyewitnesses when He stayed in the air during his travel to Kayseri. The Presenter and The guests were rebelling against this utopia.At that time,Sabri Yıldız who was sitting on the armchair calmly started to move.But this move was a little different that We could think.He jumped suddenly saying"ALLAH" from the armchair and started to roll around himself on the ground.The worst and the most absurd detail I desired to share with you is that These things happened on a live broadcast. Esra Ceyhan could not know how to react.And the guests sitting next to The Flying Man stayed away from him in a few seconds or split-seconds.He rolled on the ground a few tours and standed up as if nothing had happened.By the way,the style Esra Ceyhan reacted at that time was a little comic but certainly acceptable.She didn't know what to do.It was not even dreamed that This man would do such a thing on the live broadcast,But I appreciate this presenter's way of reaction.As for this "Flying Man",He became notorious for not only in Turkey but also in the USA,UK,EU and most of the countries all over the world.This was my analysis on this video.There can be many different viewpoints about this very very interesting video.But mine is so.Thanks for reading this writing:)Here are some photos concerning the matter.
