One of the ways to develop the four basic skills, which are defined as comprehension and expression skills in teaching Turkish as a foreign/second language, is reading and listening texts used in textbooks. In general, we can divide the comprehension texts used in language teaching, especially in teaching Turkish to foreigners, as original (authentic) and non-original texts. The selection and use of these texts as materials should be done in accordance with the basic principles of language teaching. In addition, factors such as language level, target competencies, interculturality, compliance with assessment-evaluation criteria; affects the choice of text to be used in teaching materials. Literary texts, in which the aesthetic use of language is in question, can be used in language teaching materials as authentic and structured/simplified texts like other text types. Although the purpose of writing these works is not to teach language, it is quite common to use them as reading/listening material, especially at intermediate and advanced levels. In this study, Gazi University TÖMER Turkish Teaching Set for Foreigners C1 Level book was examined by making document analysis from qualitative research methods. Based on the literary reading and listening texts in the Gazi University TÖMER C1 book, it has been discussed in which language skills these texts should be used.
