The main idea of both the passage and the lecture is about maintaining a human presence. In this line of thought, the reading states that the main idea is impossible because atmospheric pressure, water and oxygen, and the light blocking clouds. The lecturer, on the other hand, casts doubt on all of the three episodes of arguments mentioned in the passage, believing that none of these strategies are practical and lead to the real world. In the rest of the passage, a comparison between them is provided.
First of all, the reading and the listening materials talk about atmospheric pressure. The author explains that atmospheric pressure at Venus' surface is at least 90 times greater than the pressure at Earth’s surface. Thus, the author contends that this means that a force of 100 kilograms is pressing down on every square centimeter of surface. On the contrary, the lecturer believes that the pressure of the atmosphere in Venus’s land is equal to the pressure in the Earth’s land; thus, atmosphere pressure is not a dilemma. This directly contradicts what the passage indicates.
Second, both the text and the talk discuss water and oxygen. The author points out that there are no reservoirs of water on Venus’ surface, and the planet’s atmosphere, made up mostly of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and sulfuric acid, contains hardly any oxygen or water vapor. Therefore, the author elaborates that Water and oxygen would therefore probably have to be supplied to Venus from Earth. The idea of ensuring a regular supply of water and oxygen from Earth is impractical in the extreme and would probably defeat the purpose of establishing a permanent station on Venus. However, the lecturer notes that some chemical procedures need to transmute the carbon dioxide to water and oxygen. Therefore, the professor rejects passage claim and provide one solution to solve the shortage of water and oxygen on the Venus.
Eventually, the light blocking clouds which are discussed by both the passage and the lecture. The author mentions that the lack of light would prevent the use of solar power cells, so humans could not get electricity to power their machines and equipment. Hence, the author suggests that very little sunlight reaches the planet’s surface. The lecturer rebuts this argument. The lecturer states that the clouds which are in the above level are not very thick. Also, some solar station can gather missed sunlight and reflect them into the Venus. This opinion directly contradicts the passage presented.
Sum up, although the passage provides some reasons for the impossibility of maintaining a human presence, the lecture opposes about the effectiveness and possibility of those reasons.
