TEXT II 

This study intended to investigate the language learning strategies used by learners of English as a foreign language, aiming to find the amount of strategies and the domain differences of the strategies used; to reveal the link between strategy use and success levels; and to find out the difference in strategy use between genders and its influence on their achievement in English. 257 (153 male, 104 female) students from Atılım University English Preparatory School participated in the study. At the time of the study all the participants were in the same proficiency level, and were distributed to different classes of the same level. The data were gathered through strategy inventory for language learning (SILL) of Oxford (1990), which was translated to Turkish by Cesur and Fer (2007). The instrument, based on Oxford’s (1990) classification of the language learning strategies, is composed of 50 items in six subscales. The participants responded to the inventory before the end of the level they were in. The data were analyzed through SPSS (15.0) to find the relationship of language learning strategies, gender and achievement in learning the target language. To reveal the interconnections between these factors, independent t-tests and an ANOVA test, along with post hoc procedures were performed on the gathered data. The findings of the study revealed that use of language learning strategies are positively effective in success in English, that females were significantly more successful than males in terms of achievement tests, and that they used more language learning strategies in learning English. Depending on the statistical results, it is discovered that there is a significant connection between gender, language learning strategies and achievement in English.

Q2508485 Inglês
In the study of languages, understanding verb tenses and their applications within different contexts is fundamental to effective communication. The verb 'to be' in English, for instance, is a highly versatile verb, serving not only as a main verb expressing states, but also as an auxiliary verb in various tenses. Consider the following excerpt from a historical novel set in the 19th century: 'In times long past, the issue of women's rights was not as universally recognized as it is today. Women in many societies not only had to struggle to be acknowledged as equals but also often bore the additional burden of being considered property, their voices not heard and their actions overlooked.' Analyzing this passage, discuss the application of the verb 'to be' in highlighting the conditions and perceptions of women during that era. Additionally, reflect on how the verb 'to be' aids in conveying the enduring struggles for equality in different historical periods.
