The reading passage explores the issue of the whether Argentavis could fly. The professor’s lecture deals with the same project. However, he believes that this kind of birds is probable to fly, which contradicts what the reading passage states. And in the lecture, the professor uses three specific points to embrace his idea.

Firstly, even though the reading passage suggests that the bird’s seven meters’ wings could hit the ground when it lifts off. The professor argues in the lecture that the bird could lift off in other position instead of standing. This is because it could stretch its wings and down its heels to catch winds, and its strong and large feet make it run, which means its wingspan does not prevent it from flying.

Moreover, contrary to the statement in the reading that the bird does not have sufficient muscles to keep its body in the sky, the professor contends that this bird could stay in the sky without moving its wings. Then he supports his point with the fact that eagles and some other giant birds can fly in the air by the support of wings for hours without moving its wings.

Finally, the professor asserts that the ability to fly is very useful for Argentavis, whereas the author of the reading claims flying has no advantage for this bird. The professor proves that his claim is indefensible by pointing out that for sky rangers like Argentavis, they feed on dead bodies, so they need to search for large areas to find sufficient food by flying, meaning Argentavis relies on flying ability to search for food.

In conclusion, the professor clearly identifies the weakness in the reading passage and convincingly shows that the central argument in the reading in incorrect.
