Okuma Parçası

The Salton Sea in California is actually a salty inland lake. The level of salt in the lake’s water—what scientists call its salinity—has been increasing steadily for years because the lake’s water is evaporating faster than it is being replaced by rainfall or rivers. If the trend continues, the lake’s water will soon become so salty that the lake will be unable to support fish and bird populations. The lake would then become essentially a dead zone. Fortunately, there are several ways to reverse the trend that is threatening the lake’s health.One option is direct removal of salt from the lake’s water in special desalination facilities. Water from the lake would be pumped into the facilities and heated. This would cause the water to evaporate into steam, while salt and other materials dissolved in the water would be left behind. The steam would then be cooled down and returned to the lake as salt-free water. Gradually, the high salt levels would be reduced and the lake’s overall health would be restored.Another possible solution is to dilute the salt level in the lake with water from the ocean. Since water in the Pacific Ocean is 20 percent less salty than water in the lake, bringing ocean water into the lake would decrease the lake’s salinity. The ocean water could be delivered through pipelines or canals.Yet another solution would be to control the lake’s salinity by constructing walls to divide the lake into several sections. In the smaller sections, salinity would be allowed to increase. However, in the main and largest section, salinity would be reduced and controlled by, among other things, directing all the freshwater from small rivers in the area to flow into that main section of the lake.

The same question on how to decrease salinity of lake has been well analyzed in both passage and lecture. In the passage, three solutions, including, removing salt, diluting and seperating lake, has been elaborated. However, the professor in the lecture contradicts that all these methods are not useful. Firstly, the writer points out that salt in the lake can be directly removed by pumping and heating. Nevertheless, the speaker refutes that toxic chemicals could be generated in such process. In detail, she contends that when the water of lake is heating, some solid matter is left, which contains both salt and toxic matters. Toxic matters are transmitted with air and harmful for people's health. Secondly, the reading states that diluting lake's water by ocean water is plausible. However, the listening disapproves that it is too expensive to transport water from the ocean to the lake. To delve further, she maintains that the lake is 100 km far away from the ocean, which means that building long pipeline takes lots of money. Goverment can not afford for this infrastructure. Lastly, the passage conveys the point that the lake could be divided into small sections that is easy to control salinity. Yet, the lecture contradicts that dividing is not a long useful plan. She advances the theory by saying that walls for dividing the lake will collapse if meet earthquake or other intense earth's activities. In this case, the effort before would be wasted and water from main section will flow to other section with high salinity. Hence, the speaker completely disagrees with the opinions expressed in the reading.

Section Title: 6.文章修订

The issue of decreasing the salinity of the lake is thoroughly analyzed in both the passage and the lecture. The passage elaborates on three potential solutions: direct salt removal, dilution with ocean water, and dividing the lake into separate sections. However, the professor in the lecture contends that none of these methods are practical or effective.

Firstly, the author suggests that salt can be removed from the lake by pumping and heating its water. The lecturer, on the other hand, argues that this process could generate toxic chemicals. Specifically, she explains that when lake water is heated, solid matter containing both salt and toxic substances is left behind. These toxic substances can become airborne and pose a threat to human health.

Secondly, the passage posits that diluting the lake's water with ocean water is a viable solution. Nevertheless, the speaker refutes this idea by highlighting its high cost due to transportation challenges. She emphasizes that since the lake is located 100 km away from the ocean, constructing a long pipeline or canal system would be prohibitively expensive for local government resources.

Lastly, while the passage proposes dividing the lake into smaller sections to better control salinity levels, the lecturer disputes this as a long-term solution. She reasons that any walls built for this purpose would likely collapse during earthquakes or other intense geological activities common in that region. Consequently, previous efforts would be wasted as water from different sections with varying salinity levels would mix again.

In conclusion, the speaker strongly disagrees with all of the solutions presented in the reading passage due to their impracticality and potential negative consequences. (273 words)

The debate regarding decreasing the salinity of the Salton Sea is addressed by both the author and the professor. In the reading passage, the author presents three solutions for desalination. Nevertheless, the professor effectively casts doubt on each solution made in the reading passage by providing alternative perspectives and highlighting potential negative consequences, indicating it is neither practical nor realistic. To begin with, in contrast to the author’s claim in terms of the direct removal of salt from the Salton Sea’s water by means of desalination facilities, the professor contends that it will present serious problems, specifically health risks. In detail, he points out the wind is going to bring toxic chemicals into the air, which are formed through water evaporating. Consequently, people breathe the polluted air in, leading to health problems. Moreover, the professor further challenges the author’s assertion that it is effective to dilute the salt level with water, using pipelines and canals. He argues that although it may work out, the expanse of constructing pipelines and canals is prohibitive, which the government could not pay for. In addition, the expanse of construction for such a long distance, 100 kilometers, to be more specific, is costly. Furthermore, while the author implies the way of constructing walls to separate the lake into several sections to control the salinity, the professor presents a dissenting view. He emphasizes that it is unlikely to work for a long time because there are frequent geological activities in the region, such as earthquakes, which are able to destroy the walls easily. As a result, the dividing walls are only effective for a short while before they collapse due to earthquakes.

Section Title: 6.文章修订

In the lecture, the professor casts doubt on several solutions proposed in the reading passage to reduce the salinity of the Salton Sea, asserting that these solutions are neither realistic nor practical.

Firstly, while the passage suggests that salt can be directly removed from the lake by heating water and leaving salt and other materials behind, the professor contends that this practice could result in serious problems. The materials left behind would include toxic chemicals which, if spread into other areas and inhaled by people, would pose a significant health risk.

Secondly, although the passage posits that ocean water could be delivered through pipelines or canals to dilute the salt level in the lake, the lecture notes that local governments lack sufficient resources to build such infrastructure. Establishing pipelines or canals over 100 kilometers between the Pacific Ocean and Salton Sea would be prohibitively expensive.

Lastly, while the author of the passage believes that constructing walls to divide the lake into several sections could control its salinity levels, the professor argues that this solution would only work for a short period. Given that the lake is located in a region prone to frequent geological activities like major earthquakes, these events pose a significant threat to wall stability and longevity. (212 words)

6.文章修订

The lecture casts doubt on the solutions proposed in the reading passage for addressing the increasing salinity of the Salton Sea in California. The reading passage suggests three potential solutions: desalination, bringing ocean water into the lake, and dividing the lake into sections with walls. However, the lecturer argues that these solutions are not realistic or practical due to various reasons.

Regarding the first solution of desalination, the lecturer contends that this method would pose significant health risks. Although desalination would reduce salinity by evaporating water and leaving behind solid materials, it would also produce toxic chemicals such as selenium. These hazardous substances could be dispersed by wind and inhaled by people, causing serious health issues.

The second solution proposed in the reading passage involves diluting the lake's salt levels with ocean water delivered through pipelines or canals. The lecturer disputes this solution by highlighting its financial impracticality. Constructing pipelines or canals over long distances would be prohibitively expensive, and it is uncertain whether local governments possess sufficient resources to fund such a project. Furthermore, the nearest shoreline of the Pacific Ocean is 100 kilometers away, exacerbating construction costs.

Lastly, the reading passage suggests controlling salinity by constructing walls to divide the lake into several sections. In smaller sections, salinity would be allowed to increase while freshwater from nearby rivers would flow into a larger main section to maintain lower salinity levels. The lecturer challenges this solution due to its vulnerability to geological activity in the region. Earthquakes are frequent occurrences near Salton Sea; thus, any constructed walls are likely to collapse during seismic events, causing high-salinity water from smaller sections to mix back with low-salinity water in the main section.

In summary, although well-intentioned, each of these proposed solutions faces significant challenges as presented by the lecturer. Desalination raises health concerns due to toxic chemicals produced in the process, bringing ocean water into the lake is financially impractical, and dividing the lake with walls is vulnerable to the region's geological activity. Consequently, alternative solutions must be explored to address the Salton Sea's increasing salinity and preserve its fish and bird populations. (353 words)

Kullanıcı Örneği

The reading passage outlines three ways to reverse the trend that the lake become too salty for fish and bird to live in, while the lecture refutes each of them sequentially. Firstly, the passage claims through the action directly removing salt from lake's water with special equipments and making water evaporate would solve the problem. However, the speaker challenge this notion, stating that after pumping and heating salty water, salt left behind might be toxic chemicals. If wind bring them into the air, they would be danger to the health. Secondly, the passage asserts that another possible solution is to dilute the salt level in the lake with water from the ocean as water in the ocean is 2o percent less salty than lake's water, decreasing the salinity of the lake. The speaker disputes this method by arguing that it is too expensive for the local government to build constructions to pump water from the Pacific Ocean because the distance is over 1000 kilometers away from the lake and the government cannot built such long pump way. Lastly, the reading states that controlling lake's salinity with walls in several places can stop the trend continuing. The walls allow salinity in small area increase, while the salinity would be controlled in most large sections. Contrarily, the speaker maintains that the wall can't work long due to frequency and intense earthquakes which would damage the walls and water would run back into the main section.

  1. Revised Essay

The reading passage presents three potential solutions to prevent the Salton Sea from becoming too salty for fish and bird populations to survive, while the lecture casts doubt on each of these proposals.

Firstly, the passage suggests that directly removing salt from the lake's water using special desalination facilities could resolve the issue. However, the speaker challenges this idea, arguing that after pumping and heating the salty water, toxic chemicals might be left behind along with the salt. If wind carries these chemicals into the air, they could pose a significant health risk.

Secondly, the passage proposes diluting the lake's salt levels with ocean water as a viable solution since ocean water is 20 percent less salty than lake water, thus decreasing salinity. The speaker disputes this method by pointing out that constructing pipelines or canals to transport water from the Pacific Ocean would be prohibitively expensive for local government due to its distance of over 100 kilometers from the lake.

Lastly, according to the reading, controlling salinity by constructing walls in several areas could halt this detrimental trend. These walls would allow salinity to increase in smaller sections while being controlled in larger areas. In contrast, the speaker asserts that such walls would not be effective long-term due to frequent and intense earthquakes in the region which could damage them and cause high-salinity water to mix back into main sections of the lake.

She continues to discredit the dilution method with the consideration of high expenses. She states that the distance between lakes and seas is long, hardly below 1 km, thus contributing to a major expenditure in the construction of pipelines and canals. It is the professor’s third argument that the walls, used for dividing lakes, may not last long, which are especially vulnerable to earthquakes. In this way, it is not a sensible choice to separate lakes with walls in the long term.

Section Title: 6.文章修订

The increasing salinity of the Salton Sea, resulting from water evaporation, is a concern for both the author and the lecturer. In the reading passage, three potential solutions are proposed: desalination facilities, diluting with ocean water, and constructing walls to divide the lake. However, the lecturer casts doubt on these solutions as being impractical.

Contrary to the desalination solution presented in the reading passage, the lecturer highlights that solid materials left behind during this process could pose health risks. Specifically, toxic substances such as selenium may be released into the atmosphere and cause respiratory health issues when inhaled.

Furthermore, the lecturer challenges the feasibility of diluting lake water with ocean water due to high costs associated with this approach. She emphasizes that constructing pipelines or canals over long distances (at least 100 kilometers) would require significant financial resources that may not be available to local governments.

Lastly, the lecturer disputes the effectiveness of building walls to divide sections of the lake as a long-term solution. She argues that since Salton Sea is located in an area prone to frequent geological activity like earthquakes, these walls would likely be destroyed by such events. Consequently, water from high-salinity sections would mix back into low-salinity areas, rendering this solution ineffective in maintaining distinct salinity levels within different sections of the lake.

The Salton Sea in California is evaporating its water fast. In order to solve this question, writer provide several solutions to reverse this bad situation in the reading. However, professor in the lecture disagree with these ideas and think that they are not realistic and practical. First, writer believe that it is an effective way to remove salt from water by using special desalination facilities and reducing salts can improve the health of the lake. But in the lecture, the professor opposite it because this method would also cause some serious problems. Facilities can separate most materials from water, but there are some materials is toxic. Winds are able to spread chemicals into airs and people have to take them by breathing spontaneously. Eventually, it is harmful to people’s health. Second, one of solutions is to dilute the salt level in the lake with water from the ocean by delivering ocean water from pipes. Nonetheless, professor points out that this method is seen like reliable, but it also means the government need to create many pipes and canals. In fact, the closet shoreline still is 100 kilometers away from the lake. The government may not have enough resource to pay for such construction of long distance. So, this method is not practical. Third, writer notes that there is a method that people can build walls in the lake to divide the lake into several sections. Salinity can be controlled and lowered in the main section of the lake and all the freshwaters are able to flow into that area. But professor considers that the Salton Sea is located in a region which have frequent geological activities so the walls in the lake have a high probability being destroyed by natural disasters like earthquake. As a result, water with high salinity flow into main section and all of water would be mixed. Thus, it is not a long-term solution.

The Salton Sea in California is experiencing rapid water evaporation. The reading passage suggests several solutions to reverse this situation; however, the lecturer disagrees with these ideas, arguing that they are not realistic or practical.

Firstly, the author proposes using special desalination facilities to remove salt from the water and improve the lake's health. However, the lecturer contends that this method would cause serious problems. Although facilities can separate most materials from water, some toxic materials remain. Wind can spread these chemicals into the air, which people then inhale involuntarily, causing harm to their health.

Secondly, the reading passage suggests diluting the salt level in the lake with ocean water delivered through pipes. Nevertheless, the lecturer points out that while this method may seem reliable, it would require extensive construction of pipes and canals. The nearest shoreline is 100 kilometers away from the lake, and the government may not have enough resources to fund such long-distance construction projects. Thus, this method is impractical.

Lastly, the author notes that building walls within the lake to divide it into several sections could control and lower salinity in its main section while allowing freshwater to flow into that area. However, the lecturer argues that since the Salton Sea is located in a region prone to frequent geological activities like earthquakes, these walls are likely to be destroyed by natural disasters. Consequently, water with high salinity would flow into the main section and mix with other waters; therefore, this approach does not offer a long-term solution. (253 words)

The speaker in the listening passage challenges the assertion of the reading text, stating that the solutions can not reverse the lake become more healthy. In contrast, the speaker provides three specific points as solid evidence to support her own perspectives. First off, the reading passage holds the view that removing the salt from the lake's water in special desalination facilities can be a positive way. However, the speaker disagrees with this statement. Instead, she introduces that if the water be pumped into the facilities and evaporate, there will some materials dissolved in the water left behind. However, this can pose a healthy risk. Because there are some chemicals in the solid materials, such as toxic. And if the wind brings the chemical into the air, and people breath in, it can be harmful for people's health. Moreover, the speaker in the listening passage rebuts the reading's claim that diluting the salt level in the lake with water from ocean. The professor points out that this solution needs pipelines or cancels. But the local government may not have enough source to pay for such major construction. Plus, the shortest side has 20 km long, it will spend much money to do this. Finally, the reading passage suggests that we can construct some walls to divide the lake into different sections. But this does not deter the speaker from questioning about the idea. She emphasizes that this solution unlikely to work for any long.

Both the reading passage and listening lecture discuss the Salton Sea, a salty inland lake in California, and its increasing salinity problem. However, they present contrasting views on potential solutions to this issue. The speaker in the listening passage challenges the effectiveness of the solutions proposed in the reading text, providing three specific points as solid evidence to support her own perspectives.

Firstly, the reading passage suggests that removing salt from the lake's water using special desalination facilities could be a positive solution. However, the speaker disagrees with this statement. She explains that if water is pumped into these facilities and evaporated, some materials dissolved in the water would be left behind. These solid materials would not only consist of salt but also other chemicals, some of which could be toxic, such as selenium. If wind disperses these chemicals into the air and people breathe them in, it could pose significant health risks.

Furthermore, the speaker in the listening passage refutes the reading's claim that diluting the salt level in the lake with ocean water is a viable solution. The professor points out that implementing this solution would require constructing pipelines or canals; however, local government may not have sufficient resources to fund such major construction projects. Additionally, considering that the nearest shoreline of the Pacific Ocean is 100 kilometers away, building pipelines or canals over such long distances would be prohibitively expensive.

Lastly, while the reading passage proposes constructing walls to divide the lake into different sections as a possible solution to control salinity levels, this does not deter the speaker from questioning its feasibility. She emphasizes that this approach is unlikely to work for an extended period due to Salton Sea's location being prone to intense geological activity like earthquakes. In case of an earthquake occurring, walls separating different sections could be destroyed and collapse; consequently causing waters from various sections with differing salinity levels to mix again.

In summary, the speaker provides a more detailed examination of the solutions proposed in the reading passage and effectively refutes their primary arguments and supporting evidence. (349 words)
