Somebody thinks doing this is like stealing.But if the price of albums were not so hıgh people dıdn't do this.Also they defend that singers made albums but when you download them for free they can not earn any money.But although downloading MP3s is very common singers contınue to maıntaın their luxury lıfe wıthout any cut(interruptıon).To sum up downloading MP3s doesn't affect them.Because they earn money from other sources in fact such as ads. tv programs etc.

euthanasia
The Right to Die
A difficult problem that is facing society is euthanasia, another word for mercy killing. Thousands of young people are mortally ill because of incurable disease. They are all kept alive in artificial ways. They have no chance to recover completely, but most of the legal systems do not allow doctors to end their lives. However, fatally ill patients should be allowed to die for several reasons.
The first reason is that medical costs are very high. The cost of a hospital room can be as much as a hundred dollars per day and even more. The costs of medicines and medical tests are also high. The family of the patient is responsible for these expenses. Consequently, they would be a terrible financial burden for them for a long time.
The second reason is that the family suffers. The nurses can only give the terminally ill patient minimum care. The family must spend time to care for the special needs of their loved one. They should talk, touch, and hold the patient even though he or she may be in a coma. For example, Karen Quinlan’s parents visited her every day even though she was unable to speak or to see. Also, it is very difficult to watch a loved one in a coma because his or her condition does not improve.
The third and most important reason is that the patients have no chance of recovery. They can never lead normal lives and must be kept alive by life – support machines. They may need a machine to breathe and a feeding tube to take in food. They are more dead than alive and will never get better. For example, in 1975, Karen Quinlan became unconscious after the she swallowed some drugs and drank alcohol. She was kept alive by machines. Her parents knew that her body and brain would never be normal. Therefore, they asked the court to allow their daughter to die. The judge agreed, and Karen’s breathing machine was turned off. She was able to breathe on her own, but she died nine years later in June of 1985.
In conclusion, because terminally ill patients have no chance to live normal lives, they should be allowed to die with dignity. Therefore, the family should have the right to ask to turn off the life-support machines or to stop further medical treatment.
MY PARAGRAPH
A person's life is very important even if he or she is too ill.There are mainly there pretext to decide euthanasia.Firstly, people complain about the high price of hospitals concern about fatal illnesses.But, if some charities found this can be solved.Also a hospital can be found, its personnal consist of voluntary people.The second complaint is that the family spend much of their time with their patient.But families should be self-sacrificing in these situations.Because whatever the illness is the patient is a human.It is possible that they could be the patient one.Finally, patients don't have much time for living is cause family's deciding euthanasia.But there is always a hope.Because like other people and sciences, medicine and doctors can make errors, too.So it is unnecessary to decide one's dead in every occasion.To sum up, to me euthanasia isn't the correct move to do.Because before everything it is a life.

İmitation
Nowadays producers complain about increasing of imitation products.But high price of products makes this situatıon obligatory.Producers want to earn much more money and they sell their products with high profits.But if they don’t do so number of imitations can not increase .People prefer to buy economic products because of sort of money.But high expectations of producers prevent that.Producers think imitations makes their job difficult but if they don’t want difficulties they should want less money.Viz everything in producers’ hands.Every problem can be solved if they do something.

ComPare
We went two different places in sL.There was almost no similarity between those.I think first place is a mall.There were shops in it.And it had three floors.At the middle of it there was a pool.And there is some kind of fishes and a turtle in it.But second place might be a holiday village or fun center.There were different places in which you could different activities.There were flowers, trees and also some nations flags.Finally to me second place is marvellous and it's better to spend your time at the second place.

Second Life Edunation

I took a photo of sunset in edunation II from secondlife.I always dream to have a house like this.As you see there is only a house on seaside and there is also a boat in front of the house and of course wonderful sunset and sea.There are some trees in the right side. The combination of all of these makes the landscape very good.Doubtlessly most of the people wants to live an area like this.Because this area have many useful features like fresh air marvellous landscape etc.I wish me and everybody who wants to live an area like this could reach our aims.

Abdullah
I'm Abdullah Aras.I'm from Sivas and I graduated from Sivas Prof. Dr. Necati Erşen Anatolian Teachers Training High School.Metu is my first choice.In advence Metu was an only dream for me and I was very surprised when I learn I would come here.So I'm very happy about this and to come here was encouraged me about the things that I will do in the future.I believe this will be an advantage when I graduated from Metu.
Advanced reading and writing is so necessary for us.Because we are the students chosen the foreing language education department.I don't want to be only an english teacher.I also want to enter other jobs about english.So I must have very good skills about writing for example in tranlation and I also must be good at reading because for a good translation I must understand all the text and translate it into an other language.Because of all of these I expect after this course I would have very good skills and to be in a very good position about reading and writing.
