First, the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill is similar to that of some stone structures that are well known in Europe. For example, Stonehenge, an ancient monument in England, includes large stones that align with astronomical events, such as the position of the Sun at sunrise on the longest day of the year. Certain stones at Mystery Hill align with the same events in precisely the same way. This same arrangement at both locations suggests that the builders of Mystery Hill were inspired by European monuments. Second, researchers discovered a large flat stone at Mystery Hill that appears to have an early type of European writing carved into it. The particular writing system, consisting of straight lines, was used by Irish people in Europe, starting about 1,500 years ago. The presence of a stone containing very old European writing at Mystery Hill suggests that Europeans were present at the site long ago. Finally, archaeologists determined that the large stones at Mystery Hill were quarried, or cut from the ground, and then significantly altered by hammering and burning well over 1,000 years ago. The way in which stones at Mystery Hill were quarried and the methods used to reshape them are similar to quarrying activities and stone-working methods that were widely practiced in Europe in the distant past. Such methods are not generally associated with ancient Native Americans.

Section Title: 6.文章修订
The reading passage presents several arguments to support the idea that Europeans were present in North America earlier than previously believed, based on certain features of Mystery Hill. However, the lecture challenges these arguments with counterpoints.
Firstly, the reading passage highlights the similarity between the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill and some well-known European stone structures. Nevertheless, the lecture contends that the current positions of these upright standing stones may not be their original placements. The professor explains that during the 1930s, Mystery Hill's owner possibly moved these stones to make them resemble England's famous Stonehenge, thus attracting more tourists and generating profit.
Secondly, the reading passage states that researchers discovered an early type of European writing carved on a large flat stone at Mystery Hill. Contrarily, the professor argues that this is not conclusive evidence as these straight lines might appear like a simple writing system but could also be accidental scratches caused by farming equipment since the area was used for agriculture.
Lastly, according to the reading passage, large stones at Mystery Hill were quarried and reshaped using methods similar to those employed by Europeans many years ago. However, the lecture asserts that such tools and techniques were also utilized by Native Americans. The professor cites another discovery: small jewelry pieces adorned by Native Americans as decorations. These items bear similar tool marks as those found on large stones at Mystery Hill, suggesting that both artifacts were created using identical tools and methods by Native Americans. (252 words)

However, she thinks that Mystery Hill wasn't built by ancient European. In the lecture, she then uses three specific points to supports her idea which contradicts what the reading states. First, even though the reading suggests that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill is similar to that of some stones structures that are well known in England, the professor in the lecture argues that Mystery Hill might no longer in their original position. This is because, Mystery Hill had a private owner. The owner moved many stones around Mystery Hill. And also, the owner wants to attract more tourists to make more financial profit.

Moreover, despite the statement in the reading passage that there is a large flat stone appears to have an early type of European writing, the professor contends that most of researchers don't think the straight lines are European writings. She then supports the idea with the fact that the straight lines might be caused by farming equipment. Finally, the professor asserts that American also have the ability to make small objects, whereas the reading passage claims that stoneworking methods are not generally associated with ancient Native Americans. The professor proves that the claim is indefensible by pointing out that archaeologists found jewels which are actually of native American can be used to break jewels and big stones. In conclusion, the professor clearly identifies the weakness in the reading passage and convincingly shows the central argument in the reading,-- that is, the three evidences in the reading are incorrect.

Firstly, although the reading suggests that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill is similar to some well-known stone structures in England, such as Stonehenge, the professor contends that the stones at Mystery Hill may no longer be in their original positions.

This argument undermines its counterpart in the reading passage.
Furthermore, despite the claim in the reading passage that a large flat stone at Mystery Hill appears to have an early type of European writing carved into it, the professor maintains that most researchers do not believe these straight lines are ancient European writings.

The reading passage and the lecture both explore the issue of the constructor of Mystery Hill, but with different states. Specifically, the reading passage states that the constructor of Mystery Hill should be European while the lecture contends the constructor should be native American by giving three reasons to contrast the corresponding explanation in the reading passage. Firstly, the reading passage suggests that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill is similar to those in Europe and thus the Mystery Hill was constructed by European. The lecture contrasts this explanation by arguing that the stones in Mystery Hills might be deliberately designed as constructed by Europeans. Because the stones there are owned privately before. The owners might want to attract more tourists and thus earn profits in this way. Moreover, even though the particular writing system, consisting of straight lines, is the same as an early type of European writing, as given in the reading passage, it does not necessarily indicate that the constructor of Mystery Hill is European. Because the lecture contends that Mystery Hill was a region with agriculture boom. So the straight lines might just be the scatches of farming tools. Lastly, the lecture asserts that the jewels of native American found at Mystery Hill appears to be made with the same kind of tools that is used as a hammer, whereas the reading passage states that the stones at Mystery Hill were qurried and then altered by hammering well. And such methods are not related to native Americans.

The reading passage and the lecture both discuss the origins of Mystery Hill, presenting differing viewpoints. The reading passage posits that Europeans constructed Mystery Hill, while the lecture argues that Native Americans were responsible for its creation, providing three counterarguments to challenge the reading passage's claims.
Firstly, the reading passage asserts that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill resembles European stone structures, suggesting a European influence. However, the lecture disputes this by stating that the stones at Mystery Hill may have been deliberately arranged to mimic European structures by private owners seeking to attract tourists and generate profit.
Furthermore, although the reading passage cites an early type of European writing found on a stone at Mystery Hill as evidence of European construction, the lecture contends that these markings could simply be scratches from farming tools used in agricultural activities in the area.
Lastly, while the reading passage claims that quarrying and stone-working methods used at Mystery Hill are similar to those practiced in Europe and not typically associated with Native Americans, the lecture presents evidence of Native American jewelry found at Mystery Hill. This jewelry appears to have been made using similar hammering tools as those used on larger stones at the site. This finding suggests that Native Americans were responsible for creating both small objects and large stones at Mystery Hill. (226 words)
Revised essay with explanations inline:
The reading passage and the lecture both explore the issue of the constructor discuss the origins of Mystery Hill, but with different states. Specifically, the reading passage states that the constructor of Mystery Hill should be European presenting differing viewpoints (clarified the subject). The reading passage posits that Europeans constructed Mystery Hill, while the lecture contends the constructor should be native American argues that Native Americans were responsible for its creation, providing three counterarguments to challenge the reading passage's claims (simplified and clarified sentence structure).
Firstly, the reading passage asserts that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill resembles European stone structures, suggesting a European influence. However, the lecture disputes this by giving three reasons to contrast the corresponding explanation in the reading passage. ¶ Firstly, the reading passage suggests that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill is similar to those in Europe and thus the Mystery Hill was constructed stating that the stones at Mystery Hill may have been deliberately arranged to mimic European structures by European. The lecture contrasts this explanation by arguing that the stones in Mystery Hills might be deliberately designed as constructed by Europeans. Because the stones there are owned privately before.

Section Title: 6. Article Revision
The reading passage and the lecture both discuss the origins of Mystery Hill, presenting differing viewpoints. The reading passage posits that Europeans constructed Mystery Hill, while the lecture argues that Native Americans were responsible for its creation, providing three counterarguments to challenge the reading passage's claims.
Firstly, the reading passage asserts that the arrangement of stones at Mystery Hill resembles European stone structures, suggesting a European influence. However, the lecture disputes this by stating that the stones at Mystery Hill may have been deliberately arranged to mimic European structures by private owners seeking to attract tourists and generate profit.
Furthermore, although the reading passage cites an early type of European writing found on a stone at Mystery Hill as evidence of European construction, the lecture contends that these markings could simply be scratches from farming tools used in agricultural activities in the area.
Lastly, while the reading passage claims that quarrying and stone-working methods used at Mystery Hill are similar to those practiced in Europe and not typically associated with Native Americans, the lecture presents evidence of Native American jewelry found at Mystery Hill. This jewelry appears to have been made using similar hammering tools as those used on larger stones at the site. This finding suggests that Native Americans were responsible for creating both small objects and large stones at Mystery Hill.
