The golden frog is a small bright-yellow amphibian that lives in and around mountain streams in Panama The species is severely endangered because of a fungus that infects the frog through its skin and inhibits the frog's critical life functions, such as breathing. Conservationists have proposed a few solutions to the golden frog's fungus problem.
Bacterial Protection
First, scientists have identified a natural enemy of the fungus: a type of bacterium. This bacterium produces a chemical that kills fungal cells. Scientists think that they may be able to introduce colonies of this bacterium to the skin of golden frogs. The bacterial colonies would then protect the frogs against the fungus infection
Breeding Frogs in Captivity
Second, researchers are considering the possibility of breeding golden frogs in captivity and then releasing them in the wild to replenish wild populations The golden frog can develop disease-free in captivity; where it is isolated from the fungus When golden frogs bred in captivity are released in habitats where wild golden frogs have died out, the frogs bred in captivity will give rise to a healthy, fungus-free population.
A Natural Defense
Third, it is possible that golden frogs w川 overcome the threat posed by the fungus without human intervention. Some golden frogs have what seems to be a natural defense against the fungus. When infected, they increase their body temperature, which slows down the growth of the fungus If this ability to resist the fungal infection spreads among the golden frog population as a whole, the frog population is likely to overcome the crisis and start increasing again.

Both the reading passage and the listening discuss few solutions to the golden frog's fungus problem. The former introduces three possible solutions to this problem, but the latter contradicts each of these points.

First of all, the author of the reading passage claims that bacterial protection will solve the golden frog's fungus problem. Nevertheless, the lecturer contends that it will probably not work because a chemical that kills fungal cells which is produced by the bacterium does not long last. The bacterium produces this just in early time.

Second of all, the writer of the reading passage argues that breeding frogs in Captivity will solve the golden frog's fungus problem. Notwithstanding, the audio maintains that if we release breeding forgs in captivity, then wild golden forg will died out. Morever, the new golden frog soon infected and they also die.

Third of all, the reading passage state that a natureal defense will solve the problem of golden frog's fungus problem. Nonetheless, the lecturer declares that it has big drawback, when the golden frog increase their body temperature, it will have to spend a lot of energy. As a result, Golden frog will become weak and they are more likely to catch other disease.
