Section Title: 6.文章修订

The reading passage presents three arguments to refute the idea that lead poisoning from canned food caused the death of the British naval crew. However, the lecturer contradicts these points and maintains that canned food was indeed responsible for the crew's demise.

Firstly, the reading claims that a small amount of melted lead was used to seal the lids on cans, making it unlikely for the lead to come into contact with the food inside. In contrast, the lecturer asserts that workers who produced these cans were under immense pressure to complete a large volume of work in a short time. Consequently, they applied the lead carelessly, causing it to run down into the cans and contaminate the food.

Secondly, while the reading suggests that canned food could not have caused lead poisoning since no reports were made from other ships using similar supplies, the lecturer contends that crew members on other vessels were not tested for lead poisoning. Identifying lead poisoning was difficult at that time due to its symptoms—tiredness and headaches—being easily overlooked or attributed to other causes. Thus, it is possible that sailors on other ships did experience lead poisoning from canned food but went undetected and unreported.

Lastly, although the writer proposes a plausible explanation attributing crew deaths to water purification systems with lead piping, the professor disagrees with this notion. The water purification systems were primarily used for converting saltwater into freshwater for steam engines rather than for drinking or cooking purposes. Crew members relied on a separate system for their daily water needs, which further undermines the argument presented in the reading passage. (272 words)

The reading passage discusses the potential issues with using bacteria to clean up oil spills, while the lecture counters these concerns with three strong points and ample evidence. Firstly, the reading suggests that a dramatic increase in bacterial population due to feeding on oil spills could lead to these bacteria dominating the area after cleanup. However, the lecturer disagrees, stating that bacteria would not dominate the ocean ecosystem since they rely on a single resource - oil. Once the oil spill is cleaned up, the bacteria would die off.

Secondly, the reading posits that providing extra nutrients for bacteria at oil spill sites would promote their growth. In contrast, the lecturer argues that compared to the damage caused by oil spills, any drawbacks from bacterial growth can be overlooked. Traditional cleanup methods are slow and allow oil to remain in the sea for extended periods, causing long-lasting damage. Furthermore, an effective ecosystem should be able to rebalance itself quickly.

Lastly, while the reading claims that companies might become less cautious about preventing spills if they believe bacteria can clean them up cheaply and efficiently, the lecturer counters this by stating that even if bacterial cleanup costs are lower, companies still have to bear other expenses related to oil spills such as transportation costs. In other words, there are still plenty of incentives for them to prevent accidents.

Overall, the lecturer effectively identifies weaknesses in the reading passage's argument and convincingly demonstrates that opposing bacterial cleanup is not well-founded. (251 words)

The reading passage provides three pieces of evidence to support the claim that Brendan and his crew from Ireland were the first Europeans to reach North America. However, the professor disagrees and presents counterarguments for each point.

Firstly, the reading states that some written stories about Brendan's voyage seem to reference places on the route to North America. The speaker, on the contrary, argues against this evidence by saying that the landscape described in the stories cannot be firmly connected to those islands en route. To elaborate, the sheep mentioned in the "Island of Sheep" could have been raised by other people instead of Brendan and his crew; and "the burning hills" may not refer to volcanoes in Iceland but rather hills where fires had been set.

Secondly, the passage claims that scientists have reconstructed an old Irish boat from Brendan's era using only materials available at that time and demonstrated its ability to travel across the Atlantic Ocean. The professor, however, contends that this reconstructed boat is not an exact replica of boats from Brendan's era. Specifically, it is twelve meters longer than boats used in ancient times. Therefore, even though this new boat has proven capable of reaching North America, it cannot be inferred that smaller boats from Brendan's time could do the same.

Lastly, the article maintains that some old markings in North America resembling old Irish letters from Brendan's era could have been inscribed by his crew. The lecturer disputes this claim by pointing out that there are other marks which do not resemble old Irish writing. Specifically, they look like pictures and images of suns and trees. In contrast to old Irish language which only had letters, these marks are more likely to have been created by Native Americans who used both pictures and letters in their writing system. (307 words)

Section Title: 6.文章修订

The reading and listening passages both discuss the Akkadian Empire, with the author of the reading passage presenting three theories about why the empire was short-lived. The lecturer disputes these claims, stating that there are no convincing explanations provided in the reading.

Firstly, according to the reading material, frequent rebellions within the city-states facilitated the breakup of the empire, as a weak government could not deter city-states from seeking freedom from their obligations. The lecturer challenges this argument, claiming that rebellions did not have a chance to successfully oppose the government since there was an army to protect it. Furthermore, Sargon had ordered city walls to be destroyed when he initially conquered these city-states; thus, without protective walls, rebellions would have been easily defeated.

Secondly, in the article, it is suggested that insufficient food supply chains led to the empire's collapse. The author mentions that an extended period of little rainfall affected agricultural conditions in the north. However, the lecturer asserts that suffering from low precipitation would not have generated worsened farming conditions because advanced irrigation techniques allowed them to bring water over long distances and store grain for extended periods. As a result, they could maintain a functioning food supply chain even during periods of reduced rainfall.

Lastly, the author posits that attempts by Akkadians to dominate trade relationships caused damage to their economy. In contrast, the professor argues that merchants could seek new trading partners instead of solely relying on those who resisted Akkadian dominance. Evidence shows that when trade was disrupted with eastern partners, Akkadians established connections with western partners such as those in Mediterranean Sea region. Therefore, forming new connections stimulated economic development by providing access to new resources and compensating for any losses incurred due to resistance from previous trading partners.

The essay effectively addresses the specific requirements of the task by summarizing the points made in the lecture and explaining how they challenge the points made in the reading passage. However, there is room for improvement in providing more detailed explanations and examples from both the lecture and reading passage to strengthen your arguments.

Suggestions for improvement:

• Include more specific examples from both the lecture and reading passage to support your points.

• Expand on your explanations to provide a deeper understanding of how each point challenges or contradicts the information in the reading passage.

Examples:

1. When discussing overpriced goods and services, you could mention a specific example from the lecture or reading passage that illustrates this issue.

2. When talking about advertising, you could provide an example of a company that faced problems due to ineffective advertising as mentioned in the lecture.

4.Essay structure and organization: The essay has a clear structure with an introduction, body, and conclusion. The paragraphs are logically organized, focusing on specific points with supporting details. However, transitions between ideas and paragraphs could be improved for better coherence and cohesion.

Suggestions for improvement:

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

• Ensure that each paragraph has a clear topic sentence that introduces its main point.

Examples:

1. Instead of using "Firstly," "Secondly," and "Lastly," try using other transition words like "In addition," "Moreover," or "Furthermore" to introduce new points.

2. For better topic sentences, you could write something like: "One significant concern raised by the lecturer is the issue of overpriced goods and services imposed by franchise contracts."

5. Grammar

The passage primarily argues that individuals who aspire to own a business but fear the associated risks can opt for purchasing a franchise,franchise. A franchise is a license granted by a renowned company that allows the licensee to utilize the brand name and sell the company's products. However, the lecturer casts doubt on this notion by challenging the author's view from three different perspectives. Firstly, the reading passage suggests that acquiring a franchise can resolve the issue of finding reliable suppliers for raw materials since franchises usually have established suppliers. Nevertheless, the professor in the lecture contends that franchise agreements often force buyers to purchase specific goods and services, whichservices. These goods and services are typically overpriced, thereby preventing them from seeking more affordable alternatives. This point serves as the first instance where the speaker disagrees with the reading passage. Secondly, according to the author, purchasing a franchise can save businesses money on advertising, whichadvertising. This is crucial for individual enterprises. In contrast, the lecturer refutes this claim by stating that when businesses buy franchises, they usually must spend an additional six percent of their sales on advertising costs. Moreover, such advertising only promotes products rather than individual businesses themselves; thus,themselves. Thus, companies receive minimal benefits from these advertisements. In fact, they could achieve better results by investing only half of what they would spend on franchising in direct advertising efforts. This argument directly contradicts what is stated in the reading passage. Lastly, while the reading passage asserts that franchises offer more security than starting an independent business from scratch, the professor in the lecture argues otherwise. The lecturer presents an alternative option: purchasing an already-existing business from its previous owner. Analyses show that acquiring an existing business has twice as much chance of success during its first four years compared to starting a new venture or buying a franchise. This final point entirely opposes and challenges the author's view presented in the reading passage.

Contrary to the writer's idea that cash incentives lead people to quit bad habits and lose weight, the professor states that the benefits of quitting smoking and losing weight are short-term rather than long-lasting rewards. Specifically, he points out that after two years, those who quit smoking often return to their original habit, and people who lose weight may regain it.

The professor further discredits the reading's assertion that individuals with healthier lifestyles should receive more vacation days or pay smaller insurance fees by examining the fact that such people are less likely to generate medical expenses. In detail, he argues that it is unfair for those who cannot maintain a healthy lifestyle due to genetic reasons or family obligations. It is not because these individuals are unwilling to adopt a beneficial lifestyle; rather, they face unchangeable factors beyond their control.

Lastly, the professor's third argument challenges the idea that incentive programs help companies save money in the long run. He contends that these programs are not effective overall and require years to show potential benefits. Delving deeper, he asserts that employees rarely stay with a company for an extended period and often change jobs to pursue their careers elsewhere.

Section Title: 6. Article Revision

The incentive programs adopted by companies are the focus of both the writer and the professor. In the reading, three arguments in favor of these programs are elaborated upon. However, the professor contends that these statements are not convincing and persuasive.

Contrary to the writer's idea that cash incentives lead people to quit bad habits and lose weight, the professor states that the benefits of quitting smoking and losing weight are short-term rather than long-lasting rewards. Specifically, he points out that after two years, those who quit smoking often return to their original habit, and people who lose weight may regain it.

The professor further discredits the reading's assertion that individuals with healthier lifestyles should receive more vacation days or pay smaller insurance fees by examining the fact that such people are less likely to generate medical expenses. In detail, he argues that it is unfair for those who cannot maintain a healthy lifestyle due to genetic reasons or family obligations. It is not because these individuals are unwilling to adopt a beneficial lifestyle; rather, they face unchangeable factors beyond their control.

Lastly, the professor's third argument challenges the idea that incentive programs help companies save money in the long run. He contends that these programs are not effective overall and require years to show potential benefits. Delving deeper, he asserts that employees rarely stay with a company for an extended period and often change jobs to pursue their careers elsewhere. As a result, hoping to reduce costs associated with employee illness through such programs is neither reasonable nor reliable in this context.

The reading and listening are both about sturgeon, with the author in the reading passage presenting three reasons about sturgeon jumping. The lecturer disputes these claims made in the article, by arguing that the theories are all wrong and there is no true cause had been found. First, according to the author, sturgeon are jumping to catch flying insect, since the sturgeon often jump when they need food in the early morning and evening. The specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He states that sturgeon in summertimesummer(summertime (summer)) of Florida do not eat anything, as they already intake enough food during winter in Mexico. The lecturer points out that sturgeon live in the bottom of the water, so they cannot be insect feeders. Therefore, the assumption that sturgeon jump to catch food is invalid. Second, the author suggests that there are substantial parasiteparasites(Possible agreement error 'there're' + singular noun) attach to sturgeon’s scales, which could do harm to their health. It is said that sturgeon jump up and hit the water means they want to wipe out the parasite. The lecturer, however, asserts that the most dangerous parasite in the internal of the sturgeon instead of external scale. Furthermore, sturgeon that grow in farmthe farm(This rule identifies whether the article 'the' is missing in a sentence.) do not jump at all. Consequently, these isthis is(Singular verb after 'these' or 'those') not connectiona connection(This rule identifies whether the article 'a' is missing in a sentence.) between parasite and sturgeon’s jumping behavior. Third, the author posits that sturgeon jump to attack creatures invading their place. Also, tourists are injured by sturgeon when they jump. In the contrast, the professor’s stance is that the boat collide with sturgeon accidentally. Whether is a boat there, sturgeon always jumping. Impacting just because the speed of boat is so fast that cannot elude the sturgeon.

Section Title: 6.文章修订

The reading and listening passages both discuss the behavior of sturgeon, specifically their tendency to jump out of the water. The reading passage presents three possible explanations for this behavior, while the lecturer refutes each of these theories and emphasizes that no definitive cause has been identified.

Firstly, the author of the reading passage suggests that sturgeon jump to catch flying insects, as they tend to leap out of the water during early morning and evening feeding times. The lecturer challenges this assertion, stating that during their summer stay in Florida, sturgeon do not consume any food as they have already fed sufficiently during winter in Mexico. Moreover, he points out that sturgeon are bottom-feeders and not insect-eaters. Thus, the notion that sturgeon jump to catch food is implausible.

Secondly, the author proposes that sturgeon jump to remove parasites attached to their scales, which could be detrimental to their health. The act of leaping out of the water and forcefully hitting it is believed to help dislodge these parasites. However, the lecturer contends that the most dangerous parasites are internal rather than external. Furthermore, he notes that farm-raised sturgeon do not exhibit this jumping behavior. Consequently, there appears to be no connection between parasite removal and sturgeon jumping.

Lastly, the author posits that sturgeon jump as an aggressive response towards intruders in their territory. Tourists have been injured by leaping sturgeon, seemingly supporting this theory. In contrast, the professor argues that collisions between boats and sturgeon occur accidentally due to fast-moving boats being unable to avoid jumping fish. He emphasizes that sturgeon are observed jumping regardless of whether a boat is present or not. This undermines the claim that aggression drives their leaping behavior. (287 words)
