지문

The continent of Australia has been inhabited by Aboriginal people for many thousands of years. Most historians believe that no Europeans visited Australia until 1606.Recently, however, some historians have questioned that belief, suggesting that sailors from the European country of Portugal in fact reached Australia as early as the 1520s.They cite several pieces of evidence. First, a series of European maps produced around 1550 depicts a large landmass to the southeast of Asia where we now know Australia to be. These maps, made by professional mapmakers, showed rivers and coasts labeled with Portuguese place names and were sold to wealthy and royal patrons. Some historians consider this reliable evidence that the Portuguese visited Australia in the early 1500s. Second, there is evidence that Europeans had knowledge of Australian animals before 1606. One illustrated page from a European book published in 1593 features a picture of a marsupial. Marsupials are mammals that are typical of Australia (kangaroos are marsupials, for example). Female marsupials have pouches in which they carry their young. The 1593 book depicts a marsupial with two young animals peeking out of their mother's pouch. This strongly suggests that some Europeans had been to Australia before the book's publication. Last, some artifacts found in Australia suggest that Europeans were present there in the 1500s,Archaeologists working in Northern Australia discovered a set of European- made metal keys while excavating a site. A common method of dating objects found in the ground is to analyze the soil in which the objects are buried. In this case, the soil where the keys were located is thought to date to the 1500s.This suggests that the keys were dropped at the site at some point.

The reading presents three pieces of evidence to support the statement that the sailors from an European country Portugal had reached Australia even before 1520s. However, the professor provides a compelling counterpoint, contesting these claims with well-structured arguments. Firstly, although the professor acknowledges that some European maps produced in 1550s did show a general area of Australia, this does not necessarily mean that the European has ever been to there. She puts forward a fact that the landmass marked on the map are shaped differently from that of the real Austria area; additionally, she emphasizes that at that time, some sailors may hear stories about a mysterious land from others and then pass it on to people who make maps, resulting in the inaccurately shaped landmass. Secondly, even though the illustrated page did show the marsupial on some published European books before 1606, the professor holds a dissenting view about the European may have knowledge about Austria animals, citing a fact that marsupials not only live in Australia but also many other places like the northern and southern part of the United States. In fact, the European did discover America in 1503s and they should know about this kind of animal. Lastly, while the reading passage implies that the archaeologists used the soil covered European-made metal keys found in Australia and discovered that they could be dated back to 1500s. The professor provides a different view. She corrects that the metal keys are not good evidence as the reading passage has mentioned. The scientists use new dating methods to analyze the soil again and found that it cannot confirm that date indicated in the reading passage.

The reading passage presents three pieces of evidence supporting the claim that Portuguese sailors reached Australia before the 1520s. However, the lecture challenges these claims with well-structured counterarguments.

Firstly, the lecturer acknowledges that some European maps produced in the 1550s did show a general area resembling Australia, but this does not necessarily mean Europeans had visited there. She points out that the landmass depicted on these maps is shaped differently from the actual Australian landmass. Furthermore, she emphasizes that during that time, sailors often heard stories about mysterious lands from others and passed them on to mapmakers, resulting in inaccurately shaped landmasses.

Secondly, although an illustrated page from a European book published before 1606 depicts a marsupial, the lecturer disputes the notion that Europeans had knowledge of Australian animals at this time. She cites the fact that marsupials not only live in Australia but also in other places such as North and South America. In fact, Europeans discovered America in the early 1500s and would have likely encountered marsupials there.

Lastly, while the reading passage suggests archaeologists used soil covering European-made metal keys found in Australia to date them back to the 1500s, the lecturer provides an alternative perspective. She asserts that these metal keys are not reliable evidence as initially mentioned in the reading passage. Scientists used new dating methods to analyze the soil again and found it could not confirm the date indicated in the reading passage. (242 words)

On the topic of the formation of Saturn’s ring, the professor disputes the three theories put forward by the article. Firstly, the professor challenges the passage by stating that while it is plausible that a planet’s ring is formed when its moon was torn apart by its gravity as it came too close, the she doubted the assumption as the event is too rare. Moreover, the professor illustrated that Saturn is not the only planet that has a ring, planets like Jupiter and Uranus has rings as well, the event of a moon forming a ring is already rare, it is impossible for the assumption to be valid for all the planets in the solar system. Furthermore, the lecturer casts skepticism on the theory in the article stating that Saturn’s ring is leftover cosmic material by arguing that the substance of Saturn’s ring is too big to be formed as long as 4 billion years ago. In detail, the professor points out that if the ring was formed 4 billion years ago, the rocks would collapse and break up to a much smaller state while the ring of Saturn contains rocks several meters large, thus drawing the conclusion that the ring was formed much more recently. Lastly, the professor discredits the third theory in the passage by claiming that although it can be true that the ring of a planet is caused by an asteroid collision, the gas layer on the surface of Saturn makes the theory inconsistent. To explore deeper, when asteroids collide to the surface of Saturn, the gas layer won’t throw the rock back up like it is stated in the article, on the contrary, the gas layer would absorb them. In light of the contradictions made by the professor, there is an apparent divide of opinion on the three theories assuming the origin of Saturn’s ring.

Section Title: 6.文章修订

Revised Essay:

Regarding the formation of Saturn's rings, the professor disputes the three theories presented in the reading passage. Firstly, the professor challenges the idea that a destroyed moon could have formed Saturn's rings due to a rare event involving a comet pushing one of its moons too close to Saturn. The professor points out that this explanation is insufficient since other planets, such as Jupiter and Uranus, also have rings. The likelihood of such a rare event occurring multiple times across different planets in the solar system is highly improbable.

Secondly, the lecturer casts doubt on the theory that Saturn's rings are composed of leftover cosmic material from the formation of the solar system. The professor argues that if this were true, then over 4 billion years, numerous collisions would have broken up these rocks into much smaller particles. However, rocks within Saturn's rings are several meters large, indicating that they were formed more recently than suggested by this theory.

Lastly, while acknowledging that an asteroid collision could potentially form planetary rings in some cases, the professor contends that this scenario is unlikely for Saturn due to its gaseous surface and upper layer. Contrary to what is stated in the reading passage about rocks being thrown back up after an asteroid collision, an impact on Saturn would cause these fragments to be absorbed by its gas layer instead.

In light of these contradictions presented by the professor, there is a clear divergence of opinions regarding each theory proposed for explaining the origin of Saturn's rings. (259 words)

On the topic of Regarding the formation of Saturn’s ring, Saturn's rings, the professor disputes the three theories put forward by the article. presented in the reading passage (clarifies that the theories are from a reading passage).

Firstly, the professor challenges the passage by stating that while it is plausible that a planet’s ring is idea that a destroyed moon could have formed when Saturn's rings due to a rare event involving a comet pushing one of its moon was torn apart by its gravity moons too close to Saturn (provides context for the event). The professor points out that this explanation is insufficient since other planets, such as it came too close, the she doubted the assumption as the event is too rare. Moreover, the professor illustrated that Saturn is not the only planet that has a ring, planets like Jupiter and Uranus has rings as well, the Uranus, also have rings (includes examples of other planets with rings). The likelihood of such a rare event of a moon forming a ring is already rare, it is impossible for the assumption to be valid for all the occurring multiple times across different planets in the solar system. system is highly improbable (emphasizes improbability).

Furthermore, Secondly, the lecturer casts skepticism doubt on the theory in the article stating that Saturn’s ring is that Saturn's rings are composed of leftover cosmic material by arguing that the substance of Saturn’s ring is too big to be formed as long as from the formation of the solar system (summarizes theory). The professor argues that if this were true, then over 4 billion years ago. In detail, the professor points out that if the ring was formed 4 billion years ago, the years, numerous collisions would have broken up these rocks would collapse and break up to a into much smaller state while the ring of Saturn contains particles (explains expected outcome if theory were true). However, rocks within Saturn's rings are several meters large, thus drawing the conclusion that the ring was indicating that they were formed much more recently. recently than suggested by this theory (presents evidence contradicting theory).

Lastly, the professor discredits the third theory while acknowledging that an asteroid collision could potentially form planetary rings in the some cases (recognizes potential validity), the professor contends that this scenario is unlikely for Saturn due to its gaseous surface and upper layer (explains why it doesn't apply to Saturn). Contrary to what is stated in the reading passage by claiming that although it can be true that the ring of a planet is caused by about rocks being thrown back up after an asteroid collision, the an impact on Saturn would cause these fragments to be absorbed by its gas layer on the surface of Saturn makes the theory inconsistent. To explore deeper, when asteroids collide to the surface of Saturn, the gas layer won’t throw the rock back up like it is stated in the article, on the contrary, the gas layer would absorb them. instead (corrects information from reading passage).

In light of the these contradictions made presented by the professor, there is an apparent divide of opinion on the three a clear divergence of opinions regarding each theory proposed for explaining the origin of Saturn's rings (concludes with overall disagreement between theories assuming the origin of Saturn’s ring.and professor's stance).

The passage posits that there are several evidence in favor of that some stone tools discovered by researchers are chimpanzee tools. However, the lecture challenges these claims by presenting compelling evidence and sound rationale. Firstly, the lecture argues that it is these tools' physical shapes that indicates they were used by chimpanzees. On the other hand, the lecture refutes this by suggesting that it is possible that they belonged to humans. Specifically, while the stones are heavy, the adult ancient people were strong enough to hold these stones and take advantage of them. Moreover, the scratched surface and edge made people easier to prepare for food, as they were designed to do. This demonstrates that the hypothesis in the passage ignores the factor of ancient people' habits. Secondly, according to the lecture, there were some chemical traces of certain kinds of plants, which were the source of the chimpanzee, just like those today. Conversely, the professor effectively counters this by pointing out that the traces may be not from the roots of pants rather than the nuts, which as evidenced by discoveries that ancient human excavated plants' roots for food. Additionally, even though people nowadays do not consider them as food, we cannot prove that ancient humans did not rely on them to survive. Finally, while the author further contends that humans were not present at Ivory Coast until the tools were discovered two thousands years after they were used, the professor presents a dissenting view. He stresses that ancient people had already visited this area forty-three thousands yeas ago. Admittedly, they did not live permanently before the stones were created, but they hold the hunt-gather lifestyle, entailing a frequent migration, which is backed by archeological evidence. This demonstrate the tools may not exclusively utilized by the chimpanzee, debunking the expectation in the passage.

Firstly, the lecture passage argues that it is these tools' the physical shapes that indicates characteristics of these tools indicate they were used by chimpanzees. On the other hand, the lecture refutes this by suggesting that it is possible that they belonged to humans. humans (Changed "it is these tools' physical shapes" to "the physical characteristics of these tools"). Specifically, while the stones are heavy, the ancient adult ancient people humans were strong enough to hold these stones and take advantage of them. Moreover, the scratched surface and edge edges made it easier for people easier to prepare for food, as they were designed to do. This demonstrates that the hypothesis in the passage ignores the factor of ancient human habits (Changed "ancient people' habits. habits" to "ancient human habits").

Secondly, according to the lecture, passage, there were some chemical traces of certain kinds of plants, plants on these tools which are eaten by chimpanzees today (Changed "which were the source of the chimpanzee, just like those today. chimpanzee" to "which are eaten by chimpanzees today"). Conversely, the professor effectively counters this by pointing out that the these traces may be from plant roots rather than nuts, as evidenced by discoveries showing ancient humans excavated plant roots for food (Changed "the traces may be not from the roots of pants rather than the nuts, which as evidenced by discoveries that ancient human excavated plants' than" to "these traces may be from plant roots for food. rather than"). Additionally, even though people nowadays do not consider them these nuts as food, we cannot prove that ancient humans did not rely on them to survive. for sustenance (Changed "survive" to "sustenance").

Finally, while the author further contends that humans were not present at in Ivory Coast until the tools were discovered two thousands thousand years after they these tools were used, the professor presents a dissenting view. He stresses that ancient people had already visited this area forty-three hundred years ago (Changed "forty-three thousands yeas ago. ago" to "forty-three hundred years ago"). Admittedly, they did not live permanently before the these stones were created, created but they hold the hunt-gather lifestyle, entailing held a hunter-gatherer lifestyle which entailed frequent migration, migration supported by archaeological evidence (Changed "hunt-gather lifestyle" to "hunter-gatherer lifestyle" and "migration, which is backed by archeological evidence. evidence" to "migration supported by archaeological evidence"). This demonstrate the demonstrates that these tools may not have been exclusively utilized by the chimpanzee, chimpanzees debunking expectations presented in the passage (Changed "debunking the expectation in the passage.passage" to "debunking expectations presented in the passage").

The readng material proposes that there are three reasons to show that the orcas which are found in Alaskan and iceburg are different individuals. However, the professor thinks that it is very possible that it is the same orca. Firstly, the reading material proposes that they had color difference. However, the professor thinks that their color will change from season to season because the alge which is a kind of plants can affect the color of the orca. Algaes can make the white orca become more darker, so if we consider the effects of algaes, we can explain the difference of color. Secondly, the reading material proposes that those two location are too far from each other. However, the professor thinks that different groups of mammals have different life style. There are two groups of mammal, one group does not migrate, another group migrates to track fishes. The orca may a fishing mammal who will track the fishes and the orca can trevel about 2000 KM. Finally, the reading material proposes that they had different ages. However, the professor thinks that it is not very accurate because the orca's fin would not grow when they become a adult. Therefore, when scientists found it at Alaskan, it may be 25 or 30 years old. The true age of the ocra may bigger than scientists estimated.

Section Title: 6.文章修订

The reading passage presents three arguments to support the idea that the orcas found in Alaska and Iceberg are different individuals. However, the professor in the lecture contends that it is highly probable that they are the same orca.

Firstly, the reading passage suggests that there is a color difference between the two orcas. The professor, on the other hand, explains that an orca's color can change from season to season due to algae growth on its skin. Algae can make a white orca appear darker, so considering the effects of algae could account for the observed color differences.

Secondly, the reading passage asserts that the two sighting locations are too far apart for them to be the same orca. The professor counters this by explaining that different groups of orcas have distinct lifestyles. Some groups do not migrate and stay near coastlines, while others follow migrating fish and can travel up to 2000 kilometers in search of food. Therefore, it is possible for an orca like Iceberg to travel between Alaska and Russia.

Lastly, the reading passage claims that there is an age discrepancy between the two orcas based on their dorsal fin size. The professor challenges this by stating that estimating an orca's age based on its dorsal fin size is not necessarily accurate since an adult orca's fin stops growing after reaching twenty years old. Consequently, when scientists observed Iceberg in Alaska, it could have been older than their estimates suggest – perhaps 25 or even 30 years old – making it plausible for Iceberg to be the same individual as the one seen earlier in Alaska.

In the reading passage, the author presents three possible theories explaining the mysterious disappearance of the crew members aboard an American cargo ship, the Mary Celeste. However, the lecturer in the listening materials refutes each of these theories, providing alternative explanations for why they are not plausible.

Firstly, the author suggests that pirates captured the crew members and demanded ransom money. The lecturer disputes this claim by highlighting that if pirates were responsible, they would have taken valuables from the ship and demanded money for releasing the crew. In contrast, almost nothing was missing from the ship, and no ransom demands were ever made.

Secondly, the author proposes that a leak in barrels containing flammable liquid caused an explosion risk, prompting sailors to escape using a lifeboat. The lecturer challenges this theory by arguing that if such a leak had occurred, there would have been a strong lingering smell around the ship. However, no mention of any unusual odor was reported by those who discovered the abandoned Mary Celeste.

Lastly, the author posits that due to a perceived danger of sinking and only one functional water pump on board, sailors abandoned ship in favor of a lifeboat to reach safety.

On the contrary, the professor counters this by stating that the more important is to change their future driving behaviors. As the traffic camera can be equipped in many places, there are no cars can be missed, finally having a great influence on reminding drivers par more attention on their driver behaviors. Secondly, the author posits that some drivers may not obey the traffic rules as they know there is not any camera, which is similar to when the roads are monitored by officers. In contrast, the professor challenges this by pointing out that cameras are not equipped in everywhere because of they are so expensive. if they can be equipped in more places, people definitely will be more consistent with their driver behaviors. Thirdly, the author suggests that traffic cameras may cause collisions as drivers may slow down when they are in the monitored areas. Conversely, the professor disputes this by highlighting that the collisions are minor, it also decreases other types of crashes, such as crashes on sideways. As a result, the taffica cameras really play an important role in making drivers to be more careful, which decrease forty percent of the crashes .

Both the reading passage and the lecture explore the issue of the missing captain and crews on an American cargo ship, Mary Celeste. The author lists three theories to explain what happened in the ship, however, the speaker in the lecture questions all the theories. First, the author states that the crew of the Mary Celeste fell victim to pirates as the pirates in that area always attract commercial ships and capture sailors. On the other hand, the speaker counters this theory by highlighting a significant oversight that nothing in the ship were missing. This fact casts doubt on the theory that the privates capture sailors for money. Second, the author claims that some barrels that store flammable liquid have leaked during the voyage, which created a danger of explosion and caused the sailors to escape to the lifeboat. Because of some accident, they lifeboat may fell and the crew were lost. However, the speaker dismantles this theory by pointing out that there is very little evidence to support it. In fact, if the barrels leak during the voyage, the liquid will produce strong smell and the smell is very noticeable. But none of the sailors who discovered the Mary Celeste mentioned that strong smell. Third, the author believes that the captain and crew may have determined the ship was in danger of sinking since they found more than one meter of water had leaked into the ship's bottom and only one water pump on the ship was in working order, However, the speaker challenges this theory by suggesting that the ship actually was capable for traveling for fews days. Meanwhile, the captain and crew are both experienced and professional, they won't abandon their ship since there was an island near the ship. It is much risky to leave their ship.

Both the reading passage and the lecture delve into the enigmatic disappearance of the captain and crew aboard the American cargo ship, Mary Celeste. While the author posits three theories to elucidate this mystery, the lecturer systematically refutes each one, casting doubt on their validity.

Initially, the author suggests that piracy might be responsible for the crew's disappearance, arguing that pirates in that vicinity were notorious for abducting sailors from commercial vessels. Contrarily, the lecturer undermines this hypothesis by pointing out a critical inconsistency: the absence of any missing items from the ship. This observation significantly weakens the premise that pirates abducted the crew for ransom, as it would be illogical for pirates to leave valuable goods untouched while failing to demand a ransom.

Furthermore, regarding the theory of flammable liquids causing an explosion risk which led to an emergency evacuation by lifeboat, the lecturer discredits this notion due to a lack of concrete evidence. Specifically, if such a leak had occurred, it would have emitted a potent odor detectable by those who later discovered Mary Celeste; however, no such smell was reported. This discrepancy suggests that if any leakage occurred, it was not significant enough to pose an immediate danger or warrant abandoning ship.

Lastly, concerning the theory that fear of sinking prompted abandonment due to water ingress and pump malfunctioning, this too is contested by the lecturer. Despite evidence of water in its hull, Mary Celeste was found still buoyant and seaworthy when discovered. Given their expertise and familiarity with their vessel's capabilities, it is improbable that seasoned mariners like those aboard Mary Celeste would prematurely forsake their ship for a lifeboat—especially when navigation to nearby Santa Maria Island was feasible.

In summary, through critical examination and logical reasoning, the lecture effectively challenges each theory presented in the reading passage about what befell Mary Celeste's crew. By highlighting inconsistencies and implausibilities within these theories, it invites further speculation on this enduring maritime mystery. (326 words)

The passage presents three compelling theories regarding the the negative consequence brought by promoting bacteria in oil spilling areas. However, the professor casts doubt on them and asserts that none of them are convincing. Firstly, as the passage declares, increasing bacteria would dominant in ocean, causing a competition of food resources with native animals. To render disproof, the speaker asserts that the bacteria would not dominant in ocean for a long time after they cleaning up all the oil. Since the bacteria is evolved to feed on only one type of food- the oil. Thus, after bacteria break down all the oil pollutant, they would die because they do not have enough crude oil to support their survival. Second, the writer suggests that in order to gurauntee the effectiveness of bacteria, people should offer more nutritions to bacteria, which leads to imbalance of ocean eco-system since the nutrition would atrract other marine animals. However, the professor points out that if people still rely on the traditional treatment to solve oil spilling, it is too slow and the toxic material in crude oil would damage more animals and habitants. Consequently, the long- lasting effect would bring more catastrophic results to ocean. Instead, rebuilting the affected habitants is faster than we expect. Thirdly, the author holds the belief that people would place less concentration on the prevention of oil spilling and thus create more damage that cannot be solved by bacteria in a short time. Yet the speaker claims that transportation companies would be careful of oil spilling because they would pay costs for oil spilling. For instance, they would compensate for the fisher when they cannot fishing in affected areas for a period of time. On top of that, companies would pay penalties to compensate the local tourism and related industries.Therefore, they have enough motivations to prevent the presence of oil spilling.

To render disproof, the speaker asserts that the bacteria would not dominate in the ocean for a long time after cleaning up all the oil. Since the bacteria have evolved to feed on only one type of food - oil, they would die because they do not have enough crude oil to support their survival once they break down all the oil pollutants.

Second, the writer suggests that in order to guarantee the effectiveness of bacteria, people should offer more nutrients to them, which leads to an imbalance of ocean ecosystems since these nutrients would attract other marine animals. However, the professor points out that if people still rely on traditional treatment methods to solve oil spills, it is too slow and toxic materials in crude oil would damage more animals and habitats. Consequently, this long-lasting effect would bring more catastrophic results to oceans. Instead, rebuilding affected habitats is faster than we expect.

Thirdly, the author holds the belief that people would place less concentration on preventing oil spills and thus create more damage that cannot be solved by bacteria in a short time. Yet, the speaker claims that transportation companies would be careful about oil spills because they must pay costs for such incidents. For instance, they would compensate fishers when they cannot fish in affected areas for a period of time. On top of that, companies must pay penalties to compensate local tourism and related industries. Therefore, they have enough motivation to prevent oil spills from occurring. (305 words)

The theories about what has happened to the people in Mary Celeste are the central topics of both the reading passage and the lecture. The reading passage presents three theories, including pirates, the leak of flammable liquid, and the danger of sinking. However, the professor casts doubt on these guesses by pointing out their shortcomings. First and foremost, contrary to the author's assertion that people may fall victim to pirates, the professor argues that it is not convincing. Specifically, she explains that the main reason why pirates attack the ship is that they want to earn money in exchange for releasing the people. Moreover, there is nothing missing on the ship. It is impossible that after the pitares attack, no money is lost. Thus, this clearly undermines the claims made in the reading passage. Secondly, the professor challenges the author's view that it may be caused by the leak of the flammable liquid, as it will cause an explosion, by pointing out that this kind of liquid has a strong smell that lasts for a long time. She elaborates on this by stating that the passing ship does not mention the strong smell, meaning that there is little evidence for this theory. Lastly, the author claims that in order to avoid sinking, the sailors and passengers may leave the ship and reach the safety of the near island. However, the professor repudiates this claim and contends that the ship is capable of traveling for few days as the ship is still floating when discovered and the sailors experienced enough to drive the boat to the nearby island. In addition, she demonstrates her opinion using the fact that it is more safe to stay on the ship than getting into the lifeboat. In summary, there is a clear divergence between both author's views regaring the theories about the Mary Celeste.

Example 1: Instead of "the professor casts doubt on these guesses by pointing out their shortcomings," you could write, "the lecturer refutes these theories by highlighting their weaknesses."

Example 2: Instead of "there is a clear divergence between both author's views regarding the theories about the Mary Celeste," you could write, "there is a significant discrepancy between the author's and the lecturer's perspectives on the possible explanations for the Mary Celeste mystery."

4.文章结构与组织 Your essay has a clear structure with an introduction, body, and conclusion. Each paragraph focuses on a specific point and provides supporting details from both the reading and listening passages. However, there is room for improvement in terms of transitions between ideas and paragraphs to enhance coherence.

Suggestions for improvement:

  • Use more varied transition words or phrases to connect ideas within paragraphs.

  • Make sure each paragraph has a clear topic sentence that introduces its main idea.

Example 1: In your second paragraph, you could add a transition phrase like "As for the second theory" to better connect it to the previous paragraph.

Example 2: In your third paragraph, you could start with a topic sentence like "The final theory presented in the reading passage is also challenged by the lecturer," to clearly introduce the main idea of that paragraph.

The theories surrounding the fate of the people aboard the Mary Celeste are the central focus of both the reading passage and the lecture. The reading passage presents three theories: pirates, a leak of flammable liquid, and the danger of sinking. However, the professor casts doubt on these hypotheses by pointing out their shortcomings.

First and foremost, contrary to the author's assertion that people may have fallen victim to pirates, the professor argues that this is not convincing. Specifically, she explains that pirates typically attack ships to demand money in exchange for releasing captives. Moreover, nothing valuable was missing from the ship. It is implausible that pirates would attack and leave behind all valuables without demanding any ransom. Thus, this clearly undermines the claims made in the reading passage.

Secondly, the professor challenges the author's view that a leak of flammable liquid may have caused an explosion risk by pointing out that such a liquid has a strong smell that lingers for a long time. She elaborates on this by stating that sailors from the passing ship did not mention any strong odor, indicating little evidence to support this theory.

Lastly, while the author suggests that sailors and passengers may have abandoned ship to avoid sinking and sought safety on a nearby island, the professor refutes this claim. She contends that since Mary Celeste was still floating when discovered and its crew were experienced sailors capable of navigating to Santa Maria Island nearby; they would not have abandoned it so hastily. Additionally, she demonstrates her opinion using evidence that staying on board would have been safer than getting into a small lifeboat.

The passage presents three compelling reasons supporting the argument that Portrait of Young Fiancee were made by Leonardo da Vinci. However, the professor in the lecture asserts that none of them are convincing and refutes each claim individually. Firstly, the passage declares that the pastels used in this painting were belong to that period of time. However, the speaker challenges this idea by revealing that If the pastels were used over 500 years dated back that period, the color surface of painting must appear tiny cracks. Consequently, as the time pass by, the cracks in the surface would make painting become rough. However, the surface of painting is very smooth, which indicates that this painting may be made in much more recently. Secondly, the writer holds the belief that the age of vellum suggesting that it existed in Leonardo da Vinci's lifetime. To counter this claim, the speaker posits that the age of vellum cannot tell us the when the portrait were drawn since some new art works even use the old vellum to create a style. Plus, according to historical records, Leonardo da Vinci did not like use this kind of vellum in his paintings ever before, at least, his 4000 paintings, none of them used this vellum. Thirdly, the author points out that the fingerprint on the chalks indicates the painter of this artwork must be Leonardo da Vinci. Yet, the professor suggests that this fingerprint is not clear enough. If we need identify one's fingerprint, it may be made on right kind of surface that has appropriate texture that all the ridges and pattern of finger tips can be seen. But, the chalks do not have this texture, and thus the fingerprints on the surface are not clear. On top of that, Experts said that they just think it is similar to Leonardo da Vinci's fingerprint , which does not mean that they are the actual fingerprint from Leoardo da Vinci with certainty.

Both the passage and the lecture discuss the issue about the formation of the Gamburtsev mountain range. The reading material proclaims three theories, including the hotspot theory, the continental plate collision theory and the ice layer theory. In the lecture, the professor contends three serious weaknesses and respectively contradicts each of the statement mentioned in the passage. Firstly, the reading passage holds the belief that hotspots beneath the Earth's crust help to establish the mountain. However, the professor in the lecture refutes that researchers can find hotspots nearby after the formation of mountain range. In order to strengthen her opinion, she asserts that the closest hotspot near the Gamburtsev mountain was 5500 kilometers away, which implies that it was too far for a hotspot to relate with the formation of the Gamburtsev mountain. Secondly, according to the passage, 250 million years ago, the Gamburtsev mountain emeged by the collision of Antarctic plate with another. On the contrary, the professor claims that 250 million years indicates the erosion of a mountain peak, which means the peak would be round and tall. To further illustrate, she demonstrates the peak of the Gamburtsev mountain was short, which proves the mountain was too young to be formed 250 million years ago. Last but not least, while the reading material maintains that the influence of a thick ice layer in Antarctica contributed to the growth of the Gamburtsev mountain, the professor casts doubts on the opinion by stating that the valleys in the Gamburtsev mountain was partly shaped by flowing rivers. Therefore, she indicates that the mountain was built before the frozen layer of ice. In conclusion, an apparent divide exists between the writer and the speaker on the theories of mountain formation with conflicting ideas. The speaker squarely opposes all the explanations listed in the reading and provides counterarguemnts in all aspects.

In contrast, the lecture highlights three serious weaknesses and contradicts each statement mentioned in the passage.

To strengthen her opinion, she asserts that the closest hotspot to Gamburtsev mountain is 5500 kilometers away, implying that it is too far for a hotspot to be related to its formation.

Secondly, according to the passage, 250 million years ago, Gamburtsev mountain emerged due to a collision between Antarctic plate and another plate. On the contrary, the professor claims that if these mountains were 250 million years old, they would show signs of erosion on their peaks, which would be rounded and not very tall. To further illustrate this point, she demonstrates that Gamburtsev mountain's peaks are sharp and tall instead of rounded and worn down by erosion as expected for such an old range.

Lastly, while the reading material maintains that a thick ice layer in Antarctica contributed to Gamburtsev mountain's growth, the professor casts doubt on this opinion by stating that valleys in this range were partly shaped by flowing rivers. Therefore, she indicates that these mountains must have been formed before Antarctica was covered by a frozen layer of ice.

Both the passage and the lecture discuss the issue about concerning the formation of the Gamburtsev mountain range. The reading material proclaims presents three theories, including the hotspot theory, the continental plate collision theory theory, and the ice layer theory. In the lecture, the professor contends contrast, the lecture highlights three serious weaknesses and respectively contradicts each of the statement mentioned in the passage. passage (Changed "contends" to "contradicts" for clarity).

Firstly, the reading passage holds the belief posits that hotspots beneath the Earth's crust help to establish the mountain. contribute to establishing mountains. However, the professor in the lecture refutes this by stating that researchers can find hotspots nearby after the formation of mountain range. In order to a mountain range has formed (Changed "formation of mountain range" to "a mountain range has formed" for clarity). To strengthen her opinion, she asserts that the closest hotspot near the Gamburtsev mountain was to Gamburtsev mountain is 5500 kilometers away, which implies implying that it was is too far for a hotspot to relate with the be related to its formation of the Gamburtsev mountain. (Changed "relate with" to "be related to" for proper grammar).

Secondly, according to the passage, 250 million years ago, the Gamburtsev mountain emeged by the Gamburtsev mountain emerged due to a collision of between Antarctic plate with another. and another plate (Changed "with another" to "and another plate" for clarity). On the contrary, the professor claims that if these mountains were 250 million years indicates the old, they would show signs of erosion of a mountain peak, on their peaks, which means the peak would be round and tall. rounded and not very tall (Changed "round and tall" to "rounded and not very tall"). To further illustrate, illustrate this point, she demonstrates the peak of the Gamburtsev mountain was short, which proves the mountain was too young to be formed 250 million years ago. ¶ Last but not least, that Gamburtsev mountain's peaks are sharp and tall instead of rounded and worn down by erosion as expected for such an old range.

Lastly, while the reading material maintains that the influence of a thick ice layer in Antarctica contributed to the Gamburtsev mountain's growth of the Gamburtsev mountain, (Changed "the growth of" to "Gamburtsev mountain's growth" for clarity), the professor casts doubts doubt on the this opinion by stating that the valleys in the Gamburtsev mountain was this range were partly shaped by flowing rivers. Therefore, she indicates that the mountain these mountains must have been formed before Antarctica was built before the covered by a frozen layer of ice.

In conclusion, there is an apparent divide exists between the writer and the speaker both perspectives on the mountain formation theories of mountain formation with conflicting ideas. ideas (Changed "the writer and the speaker" to "both perspectives"). The speaker squarely opposes all the explanations listed in the reading and provides counterarguemnts in all aspects.counterarguments for each aspect.

Example 1: Instead of "There is an evidence that the Vikings main diet were fish, so the weather would not affect their food so much.", try "Researchers chemically analyzed the skeletons of Vikings in Greenland and found that their diet was mainly based on fish, which would not be affected by the cooling climate."

Example 2: Instead of "There were even some evidences of complains about frequently trades.", try "The king of Norway himself complained in a document that the Greenland Vikings were trading so extensively with other countries that they had no good products left over to transport to Norway."

Section Title: 6.文章修订

In the reading passage, the author discusses three possible reasons for the Vikings abandoning their colony in Greenland. However, the lecture challenges each of these theories, providing counterarguments to support the claim that none of these factors were responsible for the abandonment.

Firstly, the author asserts that climate change may have made farming impossible, leading to food scarcity and forcing the Vikings to abandon their colony. In contrast, the professor counters this assertion by stating that the Vikings' primary food source was not crops or farmed animals but rather fish from the ocean. Evidence suggests that their diet was mainly based on fish; thus, climate change would not have significantly impacted their food supply.

Secondly, the author suggests that conflicts with other groups may have driven out the Vikings. However, the professor refutes this notion by arguing that when leaving their colony, the Vikings took all of their valuable belongings with them. This would have required ample time for careful packing and organization - something they would not have had if they were fleeing due to an attack.

Lastly, the author contends that a decline in trade with Europe might have caused difficulties for the Greenland colony. The professor disputes this claim by pointing out that despite official trade restrictions imposed by Norway, illegal trade between Greenland and other European countries continued unabated. Evidence of complaints about frequent trading even exists in historical documents. These unofficial trades likely provided enough supplies for the Greenland colony to sustain itself.

In summary, each of these theories presented in the reading passage is challenged by evidence and counterarguments provided in the lecture. As a result, it remains unclear why exactly Vikings abandoned their colony in Greenland. (286 words)

The passage claims that the reason that Mary Celeste is empty when sailors found is that pirates who demaned money attacked cerws and the captain. However, the speaker in the listening disagrees, stating that no pirates went aboard this ship since there were nothing lost in ths ship and no one heard that some pirates caught crews and demand ed money. Additionally, it asserts that it is not possible for pirates to leave all these valuable treasures on the ship if they wanted to rob tremendous money. Furthermore, the passage suggests that all crews escaped to the lifeboat to keep themselves safe due to the flammable liquid they were transporting leaked which would lead to explosion. In contrast, the professor in the listening casts doubt on this point by presenting that there are little evidence to proove this posit since the sailor who found this ship did not mention a strong smell of the boat while the the leaking liquid must produce a conspicuous smell. Lastly, the passage posits that the ship would soon sink, so all crews escaped by lifeboat to get to the safety of the close island. Conversely, the lecture contends that the condition of the ship is quite excellent now. So when the crews esacped, the ship could use for a while.

The passage proposes that the Mary Celeste was found empty due to pirates attacking the crew and captain, who demanded money in exchange for their release. However, the speaker in the listening challenges this theory, arguing that no valuables were missing from the ship and no ransom demands were ever made. Moreover, it would be implausible for pirates to leave behind valuable items if their intention was to steal a significant amount of money.

Additionally, the passage suggests that the crew escaped to a lifeboat because of leaked flammable liquid on board, which posed an explosion risk. In contrast, the professor in the listening disputes this claim by pointing out that there is little evidence to support this theory since the sailors who discovered the ship did not report any strong odors associated with leaked liquid.

Lastly, the passage posits that the ship was in danger of sinking, prompting the crew to escape via lifeboat and seek safety on a nearby island. However, the lecture counters this assertion by stating that at the time of discovery, the ship's condition was still quite good and capable of sailing for some time. Consequently, it is unlikely that experienced sailors would abandon a seaworthy vessel in favor of a riskier lifeboat journey. (212 words)
