Cevap

The correct matches are: BB matches with Paternal grandmother, DD matches with Paternal aunt, EE matches with Mother, and GG matches with Sister.
By analyzing the three-generation structure: Generation 1 consists of the couple AA (male, paternal grandfather) and BB (female, paternal grandmother). Generation 2 consists of CC (father), his wife EE (mother), and CC's unmarried sister DD (paternal aunt). Generation 3 consists of FF (male) and GG (female, sister). Thus, BB is the paternal grandmother, DD is the paternal aunt, EE is the mother, and GG is the sister.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the first-generation members and married couple.
AA is the paternal grandfather of GG (and FF). BB is married to AA. Thus, Generation 1 consists of AA (male) and BB (female), who are the paternal grandparents of FF and GG.
AA is explicitly named as paternal grandfather, establishing AA and BB as the top generation.
2
Analyze Generation 2 members and sibling relationships.
CC is the father of FF and GG, so CC is a son of AA and BB. DD is the only sister of CC, making DD an unmarried female in Generation 2.
Since CC is the father, his sister DD is the father's sister, which means DD is the paternal aunt of FF.
3
Identify the remaining Generation 2 member and married couple.
EE is the sister-in-law of DD and mother of FF. Since CC is FF's father, CC and EE form the second married couple.
EE is married to CC, making EE the mother of FF and GG.
4
Establish Generation 3 relationships.
FF is a male child of CC and EE. GG is the second child of CC and EE, making GG the sister of FF.
CC has two children (FF and GG). Since FF is male and GG is the other child, GG is the female sibling (sister) of FF.

Read the passage on municipal administration below and match the highlighted terms (List I) with their precise contextual meanings (List II):

"In reforming municipal governance, the commission warned against policies that merely arrest urban decay temporarily without addressing structural deficits. Local authorities often harbor unrealistic assumptions regarding tax compliance, relying on superficial incentives that fail to build long-term civic engagement. Furthermore, state intervention must not patronize local bodies by overriding their fiscal autonomy under the guise of technical assistance. Instead, higher tiers of government should discount transient fluctuations in revenue and focus on strengthening institutional capacity."

Local authorities are described as mentally holding onto flawed beliefs.
'Harbor' functions metaphorically to describe internalizing and maintaining opinions.
3
Examine 'patronize' alongside 'overriding their fiscal autonomy'.
The text warns against treating local authorities as inferior entities needing overbearing control.
The author highlights condescending behavior by higher authorities rather than commercial patronage.
4
Interpret 'discount' applied to 'transient fluctuations in revenue'.
Policymakers are advised to ignore short-term volatility to focus on structural goals.
In policy analysis, 'discounting' means deemphasizing or giving lower analytical weight to temporary figures.

Cevap

The correct pairings are: Coastal agricultural decline pairs with sub-surface seawater intrusion into coastal aquifers; Urban retail inflation spike pairs with speculative hoarding by market intermediary cartels; Inland groundwater table drop pairs with unregulated deep groundwater extraction for cash crops; Industrial manufacturing unit relocation pairs with differential municipal tax structures and environmental compliance standards.
Each phenomenon has a specific, logically sufficient root cause: coastal agricultural failure in non-drought conditions is caused by saline seawater intrusion into aquifers; artificial urban price inflation of perishables is caused by cartel speculative hoarding; inland river basin groundwater drop is caused by water-intensive cash crop over-extraction; and suburban-to-rural industrial migration is driven by municipal tax and environmental compliance differentials.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the geographical and ecological context of the first phenomenon (coastal decline in a non-drought year).
Rule out weather-driven drought; identify coastal aquifer over-extraction leading to saline seawater intrusion as the root cause of soil ruin.
Coastal agricultural failure without drought indicates salt contamination from marine aquifer intrusion.
2
Analyze the economic market structure of the second phenomenon (unseasonal urban perishable commodity price surge with artificial bottlenecks).
Connect artificial shortages and unseasonal price hikes directly to intermediary market manipulation and speculative hoarding.
Artificial bottlenecks in wholesale hubs point to market conduct issues rather than primary production failures.
3
Examine the inland hydro-geological phenomenon (inland groundwater drop and soil salinity).
Relate deep water table fall and inland salinization to over-pumping for water-intensive crops combined with poor drainage.
Heavy water-intensive farming in river basins leads to water table decline and brings deep mineral salts to the surface via capillary action.
4
Evaluate the administrative and spatial economic shift of industrial units (suburban to rural relocation).
Identify regulatory arbitrage—specifically municipal tax differences and urban environmental standards—as the driving cause.
Industries move across administrative borders to escape higher municipal compliance costs and urban environmental regulations.

Track I: Starting facing North, a field surveyor turns 4545^\circ right and walks 122 m12\sqrt{2}\text{ m}, then turns 135135^\circ right and walks 20 m20\text{ m}, and finally turns 9090^\circ left and walks 3 m3\text{ m}.
Track II: A drone flies 16 m16\text{ m} due East, turns 9090^\circ left and flies 18 m18\text{ m}, turns 135135^\circ left and flies 102 m10\sqrt{2}\text{ m}, turns 135135^\circ right and flies 4 m4\text{ m}, and finally turns 9090^\circ left and flies 6 m6\text{ m}.
Track III: At sunrise, a traveler walks 15 m15\text{ m} directly towards his shadow, turns 9090^\circ right and walks 9 m9\text{ m}, and then turns 135135^\circ right and walks 152 m15\sqrt{2}\text{ m}.
Track IV: A security officer walks 5 m5\text{ m} due South, turns 4545^\circ left and walks 122 m12\sqrt{2}\text{ m}, turns 135135^\circ left and walks 22 m22\text{ m}, and finally turns 9090^\circ left and walks 7 m7\text{ m}.

Cevap

Track I matches with 17 m, South-East; Track II matches with 12 m, North; Track III matches with 6 m, South; Track IV matches with 5√2 m, North-East.
Each movement track is correctly paired with its net displacement vector by projecting sequential movements onto a standard Cartesian coordinate grid: Track I resolves to (15, -8) which is 17 m South-East; Track II resolves to (0, 12) which is 12 m North; Track III resolves to (0, -6) which is 6 m South; Track IV resolves to (5, 5) which is 5√2 m North-East.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Decompose Track I using Cartesian coordinates.
Path vector components: (+12,+12)+(0,20)+(+3,0)=(+15,8)(+12, +12) + (0, -20) + (+3, 0) = (+15, -8). Distance = 152+(8)2=17 m\sqrt{15^2 + (-8)^2} = 17\text{ m}, direction is South-East.
Resolving each angular turn into xx and yy displacements determines net position accurately.
2
Decompose Track II using Cartesian coordinates.
Path vector components: (+16,0)+(0,+18)+(10,10)+(0,+4)+(6,0)=(0,+12)(+16, 0) + (0, +18) + (-10, -10) + (0, +4) + (-6, 0) = (0, +12). Distance = 12 m12\text{ m}, direction is North.
Sequential tracking of direction changes ensures exact final location.
3
Determine initial cardinal direction for Track III using solar shadow properties, then resolve coordinates.
Sunrise shadow points West. Path vectors: (15,0)+(0,+9)+(+15,15)=(0,6)(-15, 0) + (0, +9) + (+15, -15) = (0, -6). Distance = 6 m6\text{ m}, direction is South.
The morning shadow implicitly fixes the initial movement along the negative x-axis.
4
Decompose Track IV using Cartesian coordinates.
Path vector components: (0,5)+(+12,12)+(0,+22)+(7,0)=(+5,+5)(0, -5) + (+12, -12) + (0, +22) + (-7, 0) = (+5, +5). Distance = 52+52=52 m\sqrt{5^2 + 5^2} = 5\sqrt{2}\text{ m}, direction is North-East.
Sub-cardinal movement vectors resolved via 2\sqrt{2} multiples simplify to exact integer Cartesian shifts.

Cevap

Matching pairs: Digital queue tracking system matches with reduction in service bottlenecks and petty corruption; Decentralized composting units match with decrease in landfill waste and toxic leachate; Telemetry meters match with deterrence of unmonitored aquifer depletion; High-frequency feeder buses match with resolution of last-mile transit bottlenecks.
Each policy intervention directly targets a specific administrative or environmental root cause: digital ticketing targets operational opacity, localized composting targets landfill overload, telemetry targets unmonitored resource depletion, and feeder transport targets last-mile transit disconnects.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the primary operational bottleneck targeted by digital queue management.
Opaque manual processing is replaced by transparent digital workflows, directly mitigating delays and administrative corruption.
Improving process visibility directly addresses the root cause of service delays and discretionary rent-seeking.
2
Evaluate the environmental impact of local organic waste processing.
Diverting organic waste at source reduces overall landfill volume and hazardous leachate generation.
Decentralized waste treatment mitigates the negative downstream externalities of centralized dumping.
3
Determine the regulatory function of automated water telemetry metering.
Real-time monitoring deters illegal groundwater extraction by commercial entities.
Verifiable usage monitoring establishes regulatory deterrence against unmetered resource over-exploitation.
4
Assess the modal transport shift caused by dedicated feeder transit services.
Eliminating last-mile access barriers drives mass transit adoption and lowers private vehicle use.
Addressing network access gaps directly resolves commuter reluctance to utilize public transportation.
