IntroductionThe line graph compares the proportion of people using the internet in Canada, Brazil and India over a twenty-year period from 2000 to 2020.
OverviewOverall, internet use rose considerably in all three countries. Canada led throughout the period, whereas India remained well behind the other two, despite showing the fastest growth in the final decade.
Detail 1In 2000, just over half of Canadians, at 51 per cent, were online, and this figure climbed steadily to 92 per cent by 2020. Brazil started from a far lower base of only 3 per cent, but rose sharply across the two decades to reach 74 per cent, an almost twenty-fivefold increase.
Detail 2India, by contrast, saw negligible growth for the first ten years, inching from 1 to 8 per cent between 2000 and 2010. Its expansion only accelerated afterwards, when internet penetration surged to 50 per cent by 2020. Even so, the Indian figure remained just over two-thirds of the Brazilian one and little more than half that of Canada. This late surge meant that, although the gap between the three nations narrowed over the period, a clear divide between the leader and the two developing economies persisted throughout.

IntroductionThe bar chart illustrates how households in the United Kingdom, Japan and Mexico divided their monthly income across five categories in 2022.
OverviewOverall, housing was the largest expense in both the United Kingdom and Japan, while Mexican households spent most on food. Education accounted for the smallest share in every country except Mexico.
Detail 1In the UK and Japan, housing consumed the greatest proportion of spending, at 35 and 30 per cent respectively. British households also devoted a fifth of their budget to food and a further 20 per cent to leisure, whereas transport and education took smaller shares, at 15 and 10 per cent.
Detail 2The Mexican pattern was markedly different. Food dominated at 34 per cent, well over one and a half times the equivalent British figure, and housing fell to just 22 per cent. Interestingly, Mexican families spent more on education, at 16 per cent, than their British or Japanese counterparts, while leisure received the smallest allocation of all, at only 10 per cent. These contrasts suggest that household priorities were shaped far more by each country's own circumstances than by any pattern common to all three.

IntroductionThe two pie charts compare the sources used to generate electricity in a single country in 2010 and in 2020.
OverviewOverall, the country moved away from coal and towards renewable energy over the decade. Renewables replaced coal as the leading source, while the contribution of nuclear power fell only slightly.
Detail 1In 2010, coal was by far the dominant fuel, accounting for 45 per cent of all electricity generated. Natural gas and nuclear power followed, at 20 and 18 per cent respectively, while renewables contributed a modest 12 per cent and oil a marginal 5 per cent. Together, coal and gas therefore supplied nearly two-thirds of the country's electricity at the start of the period.
Detail 2By 2020 the picture had been transformed. Renewables had more than tripled to 40 per cent, overtaking every other source to become the single largest contributor, whereas coal had shrunk to just 18 per cent, a fall of more than half. Natural gas rose slightly to 22 per cent, and nuclear dipped marginally from 18 to 16 per cent, remaining the most stable source across the decade.

IntroductionThe table compares the average number of hours per week that students in three age bands, namely 13 to 15, 16 to 18 and 19 to 22, devoted to four different activities.
OverviewOverall, time spent studying and on part-time work rose steadily with age, whereas hours given to sport declined. Social media use was the only category to peak in the middle age group rather than at either extreme.
Detail 1Studying showed the clearest upward trend, almost doubling from 12.5 hours a week among the youngest students to 22.4 hours among the oldest. Part-time work rose even more steeply in relative terms, climbing from a negligible 1.4 hours to 9.7 hours, an almost sevenfold increase across the age range.
Detail 2The opposite was true of physical activity: time spent on sport fell consistently, more than halving from 6.8 to 3.2 hours. Social media followed a distinctive pattern, rising from 14.2 hours in the youngest group to a peak of 16.8 hours among 16-to-18-year-olds, before dropping to 11.3 hours, the lowest of any group, among the oldest students.

IntroductionThe diagram illustrates the various stages involved in producing coffee, from the initial harvest through to its final sale.
OverviewOverall, the process is linear rather than cyclical, and it is entirely man-made, requiring no natural inputs once the beans have been picked. The beans undergo four separate treatments before the product is packaged and distributed.
Detail 1At the first stage, ripe coffee cherries are picked by hand from the plants. The harvested beans are then spread out and left to dry, typically in the sun, before being passed through a machine that removes their outer husks. Once hulled, the beans are roasted at a high temperature, which develops their characteristic colour and flavour.
Detail 2In the second half of the process, the roasted beans are ground into a fine powder. This ground coffee is subsequently packaged into sealed bags to preserve its freshness. Finally, the packaged product is loaded onto lorries and distributed to shops, where it is sold to consumers. Each stage thus depends on the completion of the one before it.

IntroductionThe two maps show how the town of Riverdale changed over a thirty-year period between 1995 and 2025.
OverviewOverall, Riverdale developed from a largely rural settlement into a far more built-up town. The most striking changes were the replacement of farmland with a shopping centre and the considerable expansion of housing, while the natural features were reduced to make way for development.
Detail 1In 1995, the town was dominated by open countryside. A large area of woodland occupied the north-west, and extensive farmland lay to the south of the main road, which ran from east to west across the centre. Only a small cluster of houses stood to the east of the river, which flowed from north to south.
Detail 2By 2025 the town had been transformed. The farmland had been built over and replaced by a large shopping centre, while the number of houses to the east had risen substantially. A new school had been constructed to the north of the road, and a bridge had been added across the river to improve access. The woodland, meanwhile, had been significantly reduced in size to accommodate this growth.

IntroductionThe chart shows the number of tourists visiting a particular country, measured in millions, alongside their average spending per visitor in US dollars, over a five-year period from 2018 to 2022.
OverviewOverall, visitor numbers and per-capita spending moved in opposite directions for much of the period. Tourist arrivals collapsed in 2020 before recovering strongly, whereas average spending peaked in the very year that visitor numbers were at their lowest.
Detail 1Tourist numbers grew from 4.2 million in 2018 to a healthy 5.1 million in 2019. They then plummeted to just 2.0 million in 2020, less than half the previous year's total. A steady recovery followed, with arrivals climbing to 3.5 million in 2021 and reaching a five-year high of 5.8 million in 2022.
Detail 2Average spending per visitor, by contrast, rose as numbers fell. Having stood at 800 dollars in 2018, it increased gradually to 850 dollars in 2019 before surging to a peak of 1,100 dollars in 2020. As tourists returned in greater numbers, per-capita spending eased back to 1,000 dollars in 2021 and 920 dollars in 2022, though it remained above its pre-pandemic level.

Task 2 · Opinion (To what extent)
Some people believe that schools should teach practical skills such as cooking and money management instead of academic subjects like history. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Model cevap

293 kelime
IntroductionIt is sometimes argued that schools should abandon traditional academic subjects such as history in favour of practical life skills like cooking and managing money. While I agree that these practical skills are valuable and deserve a place in the curriculum, I firmly believe they should complement academic subjects rather than replace them.
Body 1There is a strong case for teaching practical skills, because many young people leave school unable to handle the basic demands of adult life. A student who has studied for twelve years yet cannot complete a tax return or understand how interest works has arguably been let down by the education system. In my own country, a large proportion of first-year university students fall into credit-card debt simply because no one ever explained personal finance to them. A single term of financial education could prevent this kind of avoidable hardship.
Body 2However, this does not justify removing academic subjects, which train the mind in ways practical courses cannot. History, for instance, does not merely teach dates; it teaches students to weigh evidence and compare conflicting accounts, skills that transfer to almost every profession. Moreover, practical abilities such as cooking can be picked up in a weekend, whereas critical thinking takes years to develop. Employers themselves consistently ask for analytical and problem-solving skills, not the ability to prepare a meal. A country that neglects such subjects risks producing citizens who can follow instructions but cannot question them, which is a far greater long-term danger than a generation that cannot yet budget.
ConclusionIn conclusion, although practical skills should undoubtedly be introduced into schools, they must be added alongside academic subjects, not substituted for them. The ideal education equips young people both to manage their daily lives and to think critically about the world.
Pozisyon giriste net: alongside, not instead of (kitapciktaki onerilen pozisyon) ve sonuca kadar degismiyor. Her body = iddia + gerekce + ornek + sonuc. Conclusion ozet degil yargi.
Task 2 · Discussion (Both views + opinion)
Some people think that students should study subjects they enjoy, while others believe they should study subjects that are useful for future employment. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Model cevap

291 kelime
IntroductionPeople often disagree about whether students should choose subjects they find enjoyable or subjects that will improve their job prospects. Both positions have merit, but in my view this is a false choice: wherever possible, students should seek the overlap between the two.
Body 1Those who favour studying enjoyable subjects point to motivation. A student who is genuinely interested in a field will read beyond the syllabus and persevere when the work becomes difficult, whereas a student who has chosen a course purely for career reasons often loses heart and drops out. A friend of mine, for example, abandoned a law degree he found tedious and switched to graphic design; although the field was less prestigious, he finally graduated with distinction because he actually cared about the work. Completion rates, indeed, tend to be lower on programmes chosen solely for employability, and an unfinished degree serves no one.
Body 2On the other hand, education is expensive and, for many families, cannot be treated as a hobby. A graduate holding a qualification that employers do not value may spend years in insecure work. For students from low-income backgrounds in particular, this is not a matter of preference but of survival: a wealthy student can afford to study philosophy and take the risk, while others simply cannot. This reality cannot be dismissed as unromantic, for a family investing its life savings in a single degree has every right to expect a return on it.
ConclusionIn conclusion, while I understand the financial argument, I believe the two aims are rarely opposed. Interest is itself what drives students to finish and excel, so the wisest approach is to choose a field that is both engaging and employable, and to prioritise usefulness only when no such overlap exists.

Task 2 · Advantages & Disadvantages
More and more people are working from home rather than in an office. Do the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

Model cevap

281 kelime
IntroductionAn increasing number of people now work from home rather than commuting to an office. Although this shift brings certain drawbacks, I would argue that its advantages clearly outweigh them, largely because the disadvantages can be managed.
Body 1The benefits of home working are substantial and, crucially, structural. The most obvious is the time saved: a commuter in a city such as Istanbul may spend two hours a day travelling, time that can instead be devoted to family, exercise or rest. Over a working year, those reclaimed hours amount to whole weeks of life returned to the employee. Home working also offers flexibility that particularly helps parents and people with health conditions, since a parent who can collect a child from school is far more likely to remain in employment. Companies benefit too, as they save on office rent and can recruit from a much wider pool of talent.
Body 2There are, admittedly, real disadvantages. Employees who never see their colleagues can feel isolated and lose their sense of belonging, and the boundary between work and home life easily disappears when the laptop sits permanently in the living room. Younger staff, moreover, may struggle to learn a profession that is normally absorbed by watching experienced colleagues at close hand. Yet each of these problems has a practical solution: hybrid arrangements that combine home and office days restore social contact, while clearly defined working hours protect personal time. Many firms have already adopted such measures with considerable success.
ConclusionIn conclusion, while home working is not without its problems, these can be addressed through sensible policies, whereas its advantages in time, flexibility and cost are lasting. On balance, therefore, the benefits decidedly outweigh the drawbacks.
Pozisyon: avantajlar agir basar cunku dezavantajlar yonetilebilir (kitapcik onerisi). Tarti sonucta kuruldu. Her body'de ornek (Istanbul'da yol suresi).
Task 2 · Problem & Solution
Traffic congestion is becoming a serious problem in many large cities. What are the main causes of this problem and what measures could be taken to solve it?

Model cevap

287 kelime
IntroductionTraffic congestion has become a serious problem in many large cities around the world. This essay will examine its principal causes, namely rising car ownership and inadequate public transport, and propose corresponding measures to address them.
Body 1 · CausesThe main cause of congestion is the sharp rise in private car ownership. As incomes grow, cars become both more affordable and more desirable, yet the roads in most cities were designed for a far smaller population. The result is that thousands of vehicles compete for road space that was never intended to carry them, and average speeds fall to walking pace during peak hours. A second, related cause is the poor quality of public transport: in many cities, metro and bus networks fail to reach the outer suburbs, leaving residents there with no realistic alternative to driving. Dispersed urban planning, which places homes, workplaces and schools far apart, only makes matters worse.
Body 2 · SolutionsThe most effective solution is heavy investment in rail-based transport, which moves large numbers of people without adding vehicles to the road and directly tackles the lack of alternatives. This should come first, because a second measure, a congestion charge, only works fairly once such alternatives exist; London's charge succeeded precisely because commuters could switch to the Underground. Finally, mixed-use planning that brings housing and workplaces closer together removes the need for many journeys altogether, rather than merely relocating them. Crucially, these measures reinforce one another: reliable rail makes charging acceptable to the public, and compact planning makes both far more effective.
ConclusionIn conclusion, urban congestion stems chiefly from growing car use and weak public transport. By investing in rail, introducing congestion charges only where alternatives exist, and planning cities more compactly, governments can significantly ease the problem.

Task 2 · Two-Part (Direct question)
In many countries, people are now living longer than ever before. Why is this happening, and is it a positive or negative development?

Model cevap

281 kelime
IntroductionIn many parts of the world, life expectancy has risen dramatically and people are living longer than any previous generation. This essay will first explain why this is occurring and then argue that, despite some challenges, it is fundamentally a positive development.
Body 1 · WhyTwo main factors explain rising longevity. The first is the enormous progress made in medicine: diseases that were once fatal, such as many infections, can now be prevented by vaccination or cured with antibiotics. The second is the general improvement in living standards, including cleaner water, better nutrition and safer working conditions. Public-health campaigns that promote exercise and discourage smoking have reinforced these gains still further. In wealthy countries, for example, a child born today can expect to live decades longer than one born a century ago, largely because of these combined advances.
Body 2 · Positive or negativeAlthough longer lives place pressure on pension systems and healthcare, I believe the development is overwhelmingly positive. Living longer means more years with family and more time to contribute to society, and many people now remain active and productive well into their seventies. Societies that regard their older members merely as a burden overlook the experience, stability and unpaid care that these citizens provide. The strain on public finances, while real, is a problem of success that can be managed through gradual reforms such as flexible retirement ages, rather than a reason to regret longer life itself.
ConclusionIn conclusion, people are living longer chiefly because of medical progress and higher living standards. Despite the economic challenges this creates, the ability to enjoy more years of healthy, active life is unquestionably a development to be welcomed rather than feared, and one that reflects centuries of human achievement.
