The reading and the lecturer both are about the most captivating creature on Earth, elephants. The reading material brings several surprising behaviors of elephants. However, the professor in the lecture casts doubt on the beliefs mentioned in the reading and she says that they are misunderstanding by the author.
Firstly, the author states that elephants are aware of their death and when they become elder they break away from their herds and locate their bodies near water flows until they die lonely. In contrast, the lecturer rejects this point. She says that when elephants become elder their abilities for digesting harsh vegetations diminish; because their teeth do not work very well. Therefore, they go near water flows where soften vegetations exist for them to eat easily.
Secondly, the reading claims that elephants have the ability of painting objects such as animals or flowers. Nevertheless, the professor in the lecture refutes this idea. She believes that elephants have sensitive ears; then, humans train elephants by touching their ears and they paint everything they learn. Therefore, they do not have especial ability of painting independently.
Finally, the reading material believes that elephants have a fear of mice and every time they see mice they try to back away from them. Nonetheless, the lecturer challenges this belief and states that elephants back away from animals they do not familiarize with them. As a result, they avoid mice because they have never seen them before. If we observe elephants which live in zoo with a lot of mice we can recognize that they do not react to mice because they know them.

We are expecting: No. of Words: 350 while No. of Different Words: 200
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
More content wanted.
