AN ADVENTURE IN A NEW CITY



I have been walking for hours. I do not know where I am going. I even do not know my own purpose. I am confused a little bit. At least the bright sun is smiling and shining. I am in the middle of a strange, unfamiliar city at the very moment. I do not know anything about the city, their language, the people who lives here and their culture.

One may think that I am in a very desperate condition. However, I do not feel like that. In my opinion, a strange city means a new environment and a new life which is about to start. I am a student in a well-known college. Therefore, I am here trying to find my home. I have just rent my new home. I mean, I have rent it two days ago. Unfortunately, I cannot find or remember where it is.

Although I am in a weird situation, I can still enjoy my life, taking nice pictures of the new and the interesting city. Interestingly, I feel happy, not lost in a strange city. Suddenly, I encounter with one of my friends from the college. We start to have a chit chat and go to a café. A few hours later, I tell him that I cannot find my home. He gently smiles at me.

Two days ago, I have invited some of my new friends to my new home. As he came to my “new home-warming party”, he knows the way.

We leave the café and start walking. The sunset is breath-taking. After we watch this glamorous view a little bit, we finally arrive at my new home. Now I have learnt the way to my new home perfectly, so I hope will not be lost in this new city anymore. I gracefully thank him. I can feel that both of us are looking forward to going to the school next morning. We say goodbye to each other.

Just another interesting and adventurous day!

ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS AND SOCIETIES: INTERNAL ASSESSMENT (IB)

  HOW DOES THE COUNTRIES’ -TURKEY, THE NETHERLANDS AND THE USA- SOLAR POWER USAGE CORRELATE WITH THEIR ECONOMIC STATUS? PERSONAL ENGAGEMENT Solar energy can be used for solar water heaters and house heating. The heat from solar energy enables the production of food, chemicals, textiles, and it can also be used in warm greenhouses, swimming pools, and livestock buildings. Furthermore, providing a power source for electronic devices and even cooking can be achieved by using solar energy [1] . Turkey is a country which might use the solar power energy efficiently. However, in our country, although the solar energy is used sporadically for hot water in domestic use and in some hotels in southern Turkey, we can state that it is not widely applied as a sustainable and a clean energy source. Unlike Turkey, the Netherlands uses the technological opportunities really well, even though the country does not have an extreme access of sun light [2] . On the contrary, United States ...

ELECTRIC CONSUMPTION AND ENERGY SAVING

   [7] INTRODUCTION: THE EFFECTS OF ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION ON THE ENVIRONMENT Electricity has a great importance in our World nowadays. Especially, due to the pandemic we all have started using the electrical devices and gadgets much more than before. This increase in electricity consumption has absolutely some effects on the environment. These impacts depend on the usage, how and where we have been generating or delivering. The usage of electricity may seem quite safe. However, the production and transmission of electricity have a huge impact on the environment. Electricity is generated by moving a conductive wire such as copper in a magnetic field. An electric generator is a machine that contains coiled conductive wires rotating inside a magnet and generates electric current by rotating these wires. In order to obtain a large amount of electrical energy which is necessary in our homes, workplaces, industry; large power plants are needed. [8]   Most power plants are gen...

ENGLISH INDIVIDUAL ORAL QUESTIONS (IB)

    What ideas and images do we associate with a healthy lifestyle? In my opinion the main point is balancing our lives. Most of the people think that a healthy lifestyle includes only eating vegetables and fruits, doing tons of cardio and not even tasting the meals that include carbohydrates. This idea is wrong. Because a lifestyle should be able to last forever. We should also include some awards like chocolate or pasta in our diet. What constitutes an identity? The society plays the biggest role while creating our identities. Because our values and culture affect our way of thinking and our lifestyle as well. Our family and our friends may change our point of view. For instance, when we visit our family members who live abroad may develop our personality. While talking with them we might use another language. And the language we use improves our vision. When we start talking another language, we might think in a different way than usual. The vocabulary and the gramm...
