SAMPLE ESSAY "SLEEPING"

Sleeping is a natural periodic state of rest for the mind and body. So, William Shakespeare called it as a death’s counterfeit. Besides, it is a basic necessity of life, as important as air, food and water. But, Thomas Edison claimed that sleeping is a waste of time. According to Dayton Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Wright State University School of Medicine and the Sleep-Wake Disorders Research Institute, each one of us has a unique sleep requirement, for instance, new born (15 - 20 hours), children (10 - 15 hours), adults (6 - 9 hours) and old age (5 - 6 hours). Except for the people, animals also have a unique sleep requirement such as bats (approximately 20 hours), cats (about 15 hours), rabbit (about 9 hours) and horse (3 hours) a day. There are five interesting and unknown basic parts of sleeping such as sleeping positions, sleeping behaviors, sleeping types, sleeping disorders and sleeping facts.

SAMPLE ESSAY "ADS"

People often think that “Any publicity is good publicity.” The earliest use of this expression is from the US newspaper The Atlanta Constitution by Phineas Taylor Barnum in 1915. He used this expression, because advertisements began to shape our world from that time. But today it is over. From now on, advertisements started to give hidden evil messages rather than to shape. So we can easily say that any publicity is not good publicity. Although there are good aspects of advertisement such as controlling product prices, saving good deal of time, guaranteeing quick sales, giving educational, social and safety messages, there is also abuse of an advertisement like deceiving people into buying things that they don’t really need, making people think they need things that they shouldn’t even want, lying, and misleading. But there are also 4 basic issues of insidious types of the advertisements such as offensive, racist, subliminal and illuminati.

SAMPLE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

“Good friends are like stars, you can’t always see them but you know that they are there for you, and thinking of you.” and “A best friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.” and “A true friend is one who thinks you are a good egg even if you are half-cracked.” and “A real friend is a connection to life; a tie to the past, a road to the future, the key to sanity in a totally insane world.” and “A loyal friend laughs at your jokes when they're not so good, and sympathizes with your problems when they're not so bad.” and "The best kind of friend is the one you could sit on a porch with, never saying a word, and walk away feeling like that was the best conversation you've had." I have already a wonderful, great, super and beautiful friend like this, you! But, I wish I had known you earlier.

SAMPLE ESSAY "THE MOST VALUABLE THING -LIFE-"

Capital punishment has a miserable past. The death penalty was very common and most widely used method in every situation in every place; therefore, The Human Rights was published throughout the world. Even in this day and time some Islamic countries continue to carry out the supreme punishment and in these countries, guilty people are penalized violently. I think capital punishment shouldn't be executed in any part of the world because of three reasons.

Firstly, God has created us and has the right to claim a life, but we don’t have such a right. So, nobody should be sentenced with death, as we can’t destroy the thing which we didn't create.

SAMPLE ESSAY "FROM COUNTRYSIDE TO CITY"

In the old days, people tended to stay in the place they were born because of some difficulties, but now we move easily from countryside to city, from one part of a country to another, and even from country to country. Each place has its own traditions and ways of life. When I moved from Bournemouth to Londra, I had to make several adjustments to my life. Londra is a different city from my hometown in many respects. Of course, there might be some similarities to my hometown, like entertainment, restaurant and so on. But, from my point of view, the difference is far outweigh the similarities; environment, weather and pollution.

First and foremost, environment is through and through different at many points. Taking stall in all, people have their own condition to adjust to their environment, so it leads to their satisfaction.

SAMPLE ESSAY "BATCH CLEANING"

Last week we had a free time because of our teacher’s illness and we decided to do something good for the school. So, we started to clean-up our school's outdoor campus. We were disgusted with the amount of pollution we found scattered around our school. Then, we thought that we must do something to make our efforts noticeable to the rest of the student. We arranged to pick up trash during lunch and after school. At both times the outdoor campus is used and we put the trash on display so the whole school could see the garbage collage they created. This was only a small-scale study we did to clean our environment. But, we must struggle to preserve and clean up the environment throughout the world. I think there are three major steps we can do to clean up the environment.

SAMPLE ESSAY "A STRANGE EXPERIENCE"

According to Swiss researchers, approximately 1 million people died in the last twenty years. But, more than 780 thousands of them died in the earthquake. In Turkey, the situation is not much different and the number of deaths is over 57 thousands. Despite the fact that authorities' efforts and governments’ investments, none of those deaths couldn’t be prevented. I think that something must be done by the victims of the earthquake. So, we can describe this as a process that we should do before, during, and after an earthquake.

Most of what we must do belongs to pre-earthquake period. Firstly, we must learn first aid. It is very significant because we may have to practice it during the earthquake. Learning how to turn off the gas, water, and electricity is also important one. Then, we should place our household goods according to the instructions of the earthquake such as anchoring heavy furniture, cupboards, and appliances to the walls or floor, not leaving heavy objects on shelves because of danger of falling.
