Reading: Argument, Tone and Purpose örnek soruları

Soru 1
The housing scheme was ____ designed to help first-time buyers, but in practice most of the new flats have been bought by investors.
  1. A)invariably
  2. B)scarcely
  3. C)ostensibly
  4. D)consequently
  5. E)inadvertently
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: C

Ostensibly = görünüşte, sözde; açıklanan amaç ile gerçek sonuç arasındaki farkı vurgular ve "but in practice" ile uyumludur. "Inadvertently" (istemeden) "designed" ile çelişir; tasarım bilinçli bir eylemdir.

Soru 2
'There was a time when the arrival of the post was the highlight of the day. We would wait by the window, and a handwritten envelope could keep us happy until evening.' The tone of this extract is best described as ____.
  1. A)nostalgic
  2. B)alarmed
  3. C)indignant
  4. D)sarcastic
  5. E)detached
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: A

"There was a time when..." ve geçmişteki küçük mutlulukları sevgiyle anma, özlem dolu (nostalgic) bir tonu gösterir. "Detached" (mesafeli, duygusuz) uymaz; metin duygu yüklüdür.

Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: D

"Would have us believe" kalıbı, yazarın söylenene inanmadığını ve açıklamayı şüpheli bulduğunu gösterir. "Confirmed" ise tersine, söylenenin doğru olduğunu ima eder.

Soru 4
Elif: How was the conference? Murat: Well, the keynote speaker certainly knew how to fill ninety minutes. What does Murat imply?
  1. A)The speaker finished much earlier than planned.
  2. B)The conference had to be cut short.
  3. C)The talk was impressively detailed and informative.
  4. D)He was not able to attend the keynote talk.
  5. E)The talk was too long and had little real content.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: E

"Knew how to fill ninety minutes" övgü gibi görünse de, konuşmacının süreyi içeriksiz doldurduğunu ima eden ironik bir yorumdur. "Impressively detailed" ifadeyi düz anlamıyla almaktır.

Soru 5
'Visitors are kindly reminded that the north footpath will be closed from 3 to 14 June while the bridge is repainted. A signed diversion via Mill Lane will be in place.' What is the main purpose of this notice?
  1. A)to advertise a new walking route along Mill Lane
  2. B)to complain about the cost of repairing the footpath
  3. C)to apologise for poor maintenance and offer compensation
  4. D)to persuade visitors to volunteer to repaint the bridge
  5. E)to inform people about a temporary change and an alternative route
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: E

Duyuru yolun belirli tarihlerde kapanacağını ve işaretli bir alternatif güzergâh olacağını bildiriyor; amaç bilgilendirmektir. Mill Lane yalnızca geçici sapma yolu olarak anılıyor, bu yüzden "to advertise a new walking route" yanlıştır.

Soru 6
'Experts say the new diet "may help some people" lose weight, which is hardly the miracle cure promised in the advertisements.' What is the writer suggesting?
  1. A)The experts are wrong about the effects of the diet.
  2. B)The experts recommend the diet for everyone without exception.
  3. C)The advertisements were far too cautious in their claims.
  4. D)The diet does not help anybody to lose any weight.
  5. E)The advertisements exaggerated the benefits of the diet.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: E

"Hardly the miracle cure promised" = vaat edilen mucize tedavi olmaktan çok uzak; yani reklamlar abartmış. "May help some people" ifadesi diyetin hiç kimseye yaramadığı yorumunu çürütür.

Soru 7
'Our new app has already been downloaded over a million times. Join the community today and see why everyone is talking about it!' What is the main purpose of this text?
  1. A)to report a fall in the app's popularity
  2. B)to explain how the app was first developed
  3. C)to compare the app with its main competitors
  4. D)to persuade readers to download the app
  5. E)to warn readers about problems with the app
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: D

Emir kipi ("Join… today") ve "everyone is talking about it" gibi abartılı ifadeler ikna amaçlı reklam dilidir. Rakam vermek metni bilgilendirici yapmaz; asıl işlev satış/iknadır.

Soru 8
'Either we build the new motorway, or we accept that this region will never attract a single new business.' What is the main weakness of this argument?
  1. A)It relies on a single personal anecdote.
  2. B)It attacks the character of the people who disagree.
  3. C)It presents only two possibilities when others clearly exist.
  4. D)It contradicts a claim made earlier in the same sentence.
  5. E)It quotes statistics without giving their source.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: C

Cümle yalnızca iki seçenek sunuyor (otoyol ya da hiç yatırım), başka yolları yok sayıyor: yanlış ikilem (false dilemma). Cümlede kişisel bir anekdot yok, bu yüzden "relies on a single personal anecdote" yanlıştır.

Soru 9
Selin: Did the client like our proposal? Kaan: They thanked us for our time and said they'd 'keep it on file'. What does Kaan imply?
  1. A)The client has lost the proposal document.
  2. B)The client has already decided to work with us again.
  3. C)The client wants to sign the contract immediately.
  4. D)The client asked for a cheaper version of it.
  5. E)The client is probably not going to accept the proposal.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: E

"Keep it on file" (dosyada tutarız) ve tırnak içinde aktarılması kibar bir ret anlamına gelir. Sözleşme imzalamak isteseler bunu açıkça söylerlerdi; "wants to sign immediately" yanlıştır.

Soru 10
'Only three places left! Early-bird prices end at midnight tonight, so book now before it's too late.' What is the main technique used to persuade the reader?
  1. A)appealing to tradition
  2. B)comparing with competitors
  3. C)creating a sense of urgency
  4. D)quoting expert opinion
  5. E)presenting detailed statistics
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Doğru cevap: C

"Only three places left", "end at midnight tonight", "before it's too late" okurda acele etme duygusu yaratır: "creating a sense of urgency". Metinde uzman görüşü ya da rakiplerle karşılaştırma yoktur.
