Soru 8

History is one of the few school subjects commonly mandated in education systems throughout the world. Furthermore, the use of history textbooks to support student learning is an almost universally accepted practice. However, the widespread international presence of the humble history textbook should not disguise its ideological and cultural potency. Indeed, essential to understanding the power and importance of history textbooks is to appreciate that in any given culture they typically exist as the keepers of ideas, values and knowledge. No matter how neutral history textbooks may appear, they are ideologically important, because they often seek to inject the youth with a shared set of values, national ethos and an incontrovertible sense of political orthodoxy. Textbooks stand as cultural artefacts that embody a range of issues associated with ideology, politics and values which in themselves function at a variety of different levels of power, status and influence. Embedded in history textbooks are narratives and stories that nation states choose to tell about themselves and their relations with other nations. Typically, they represent a core of cultural knowledge which future generations are expected both to assimilate and support.

According to the passage, history textbooks ----.

A
are now being rewritten with a more international and universal outlook to rectify past misunderstandings between nations
B
are not appropriate for teaching history because they are always ideologically biased
C
should be written in a neutral and unbiased way so that future generations can have a healthy understanding of history
D
not only have educational, but also ideological functions, serving to transmit a nation state’s values
E
consist of baseless stories and narratives rather than historical facts that are more important for a nation state’s survival

Many athletes credit drugs with improving their performance, but some of them may want to thank their brain instead. Mounting evidence suggests that the boost from human growth hormone (HGH), an increasingly popular doping drug, might be caused by the placebo effect. In a new double-blind trial funded by the World Anti-Doping Agency, in which neither researchers nor participants knew who was receiving HGH and who was taking a placebo, the researchers asked participants to guess whether or not they were on the real drug. Then they examined the results of the group who guessed that they were getting HGH when, in fact, they had received a placebo. That group improved at four fitness tests measuring strength, endurance, power and sprint capacity. The study participants who guessed correctly that they were taking a placebo did not improve, according to preliminary results presented at the Society for Endocrinology meeting in June 2011. “The finding really shows the power of the mind” said Ken Ho, an endocrinologist at the Garvan Institute in Sydney, Australia, who led the study. She maintains that many athletes are reaping the benefits of the placebo effect, without knowing whether what they are taking is beneficial or not.

  • It is clearly stated in the passage that the support given by certain drugs ----.
A
is largely accepted for its positive contribution to performance
B
has been proven by many studies around the world
C
has led authorities to take the necessary measures against these drugs
D
has been openly disputed by most of the athletes
E
results in the improved performances of all the athletes who take them

Science does not produce a unified picture of the environment on which all can agree, instead it provides multiple views, each of which may be valid from a particular ideological angle.

A
There is not one single view of the environment that can be provided through science that everyone will agree on, rather it gives different perspectives, all of which are valid depending on the ideological perspective.

D
Scientists from different ideological backgrounds have come together to agree upon a unified picture of the environment on which scientists can all agree upon its validity.
E
Multiple views on the environment are the result of science being unable to produce a unified description upon which those from different ideological backgrounds can agree.
Soru 18

The changing climate will have negative effects on all parts of the world; depending on people’s location and lifestyles, however, there will be great differences in the subsequent health hazards that human populations face.

A
No matter how and where people live, the subsequent health hazards will be terribly great after the varying climate negatively affects all regions of the world
B
Based on their lifestyles and geographical location, human populations all over the world will experience health risks to be brought about by adverse effects of the changing climate
C
Whether all regions of the world will be negatively affected by the incremental climate change largely depends on people’s location and ways of life, yet human populations will end up with health risks
D
Since all parts of the world are likely to be adversely influenced by the globally changing climate, human populations have been subject to resultant health risks, regardless of how and where they reside.
E
All regions of the world will be adversely affected by the changing climate, but the resulting health risks to human populations will vary greatly, depending on where and how people live.

---- This is not the case, and evidence for early learning and remembering comes from several studies. In one, infants only a few hours old learned to turn their heads right or left, depending on whether they heard a buzzer or a tone.

In only a few trials, the babies were performing without error.

A
It was once thought that infants could neither learn nor remember
B
Infants can discriminate differences in taste shortly after birth.
C
Newborn infants could distinguish human voices from other sounds.
D
Newborn babies may not remember what they have just learned.
E
Pre-birth experiences in the uterus help infants to learn and remember.
