Glass is a favored building material for modern architecture, yet it is also very dangerous for wild birds. Because they often cannot distinguish between glass and open air, millions of birds are harmed every year when they try to fly through glass windows. There are, however, several solutions that responsible businesses can use to prevent injuries to birds. One-Way Glass One solution is to replace the regular, clear glass with one-way glass that is transparent in only one direction. The occupants of the building can see out, but birds and others cannot see in. If birds cannot see through a window, they will understand that the glass forms a solid barrier and will not try to fly through it. Colorful Designs A second solution is to paint colorful lines or other designs on regular window glass. For example, a window could have a design of thin stripes painted over the glass. People would still be able to see through the openings in the design where there is no paint, while birds would see the stripes and thus avoid trying to fly through the glass. Architects can be encouraged to include colorful painted patterns on glass as part of the general design of buildings. Magnetic Field The third solution is to create an artificial magnetic field to guide birds away from buildings. Humans use an instrument called a magnetic compass to determine directions—either north, south, east, or west. Bird research has shown that birds have a natural ability to sense Earth’s magnetic fields; this ability works just like a compass, and it helps birds navigate in the right direction when they fly. A building in a bird flight path can be equipped with powerful electromagnets that emit magnetic signals that steer birds in a direction away from the building.
In the reading passage, the author discusses three kinds of the solution that can be use to prevent injuries of birds, while the lecturer claims that what the reading passage states is not effectively stop birds hurt and disputes those solutions presented in the reading passage by several proofs.
The first solution in the reading passage is that avoid birds harmed by using one-way glasses, while the speaker refutes this solution by saying that those glasses reflect light just like mirror and birds don't understand the mirror, so when they see a tree reflection on those glasses, they want to fly through glass.
Second, the reading passage states that one of the possible solutions is to paint glass by this way occupy could see the outside and the birds can recognize widows and avoid to fly through them. By contrast, the speaker views to this issue from an opposite angle. According to the speaker, those windows makes inside too dark, on the other hand, birds though that not painted places are holes and they try to fly through them.
Additionally, the last solution in the reading passage is that create an artificial magnetic field, so avoid them injures. But the speaker demonstrates a different idea that birds just use earth magnetic fields to navigate their way on the long-distance migrations and they use their eyes and light on their short trips.
All in all, the professor clearly identifies weaknesses in the reading passage and convincingly shows that all of the three solutions which are presented in the reading passage couldn’t stop birds hurt.
