A MOMENT

 



It was a magnificent day, and the place was breath-taking. The weather was wonderful, and the air was as severe as the flume. Although the region was quite neglected, the buildings were as merry as the children who were playing in the water.

The elderly bridge was smiling to the adults. As he was an old-timer, he seemed very wise like an old man. They were best friends with the sun, and that day they were getting along with each other as it was a shiny and heart-warming day.

The marble paving was also very peaceful and self-complacent as he freshened with the cool water of the flume. The graceful flume was alive and vivid. She felt as a new-born baby as the summer has just arrived. The day before, she missed the children that were playing and the people who were sailing on the dated boats. The boats were daydreaming and thought about the past. They were delighted for that glamorous day.

The solitary tree felt a little bit desperate as he did not have a lot of friends, although the buildings around him were trying to converse with him. Therefore, the enormous alone tree was merry. He nobly greeted one of his best and the oldest friend, who was the wise Sun. The buildings with small windows were having a chit chat. One can say that they were gossiping.

The children were making a leap like a professional ballerina who was soaring as a swan, while jumping into the cool and refreshing water. The adults generally forgot to smile and laugh as a child, like the silent and joyless neglected area. However, that day was special… They all remembered to be happy and joyful while their children were swimming.

The citizens’ clothes were talking and revealing that they were from the middle class. There was a middle aged but athletic man who was sailing the boat really masterly. He might feel as Don Quijote while fighting with the waves through the flume.

After this great day, everybody went to their homes. The nature, the buildings and the citizens all have fallen asleep…

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...
