Integrated essay
In the given set of materials, the reading passage and the lecture discuss various possibilities of dinosaurs extinction from earth. Based on the arguments on the asteroid theory, the ice age theory, and the bird evolution theory, the author supports his claim on several reasons of dinosaurs' extinction. However, the lecturer refutes the author's theory by highlighting that the mentioned points aren't convincing.
First, the author mentions the asteroid theory, which suggests that iridium, a common finding in meteorite was discovered, implying a meteorite strike on earth. However, the spreaker contradicts this belief by highlighting that there is abundent iridium on the core of earth which may have leaked to the surface by volcano or eathquake.
Secondly, the author supports his claim by mentioning the ice age theory. However, the orator weakens this belief by detaining that there is no evidence of ice age during the dinosaur era, it was found to be tropical climate at that period of time due to abundence of carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere similar to modern days.
Finally the author points out the bird evolution theory mentioning that dinosaurs have evolved into modern birds. However, the spreaker highlights that birds have characteriscics significantly different from dinosaurs. He further adds that several evidences have proved that the ancient birds from dinosaur's era are descendents of modern age birds.
In conclusion, although the reading passage details various hypothesis on the diappearence of dinosaurs from earth, by elaborating on the asteroid theory, the ice age theory, and the bird evolution theory, the professor in the lecture casts aside each of his theories by highlighting several evidences and relevent information.
