Summary the points in the lecture, being sure to explain how they cast doubt on specific points in the reading passage.
The reading passage and listening lecture argue that whether pterosaurs can fly or not. Reading passage lists three specific reasons to illustrate that pterosaurs are not able to fly. However, Professor in the listening materials refute these three reasons by strong and undeniable evidence.
First of all, the passage intends that pterosaurs are cold-blooded animals which has slower metabolism and cannot produce enough energy for flying. In contrary, the lecturer points out that pterosaurs have hair-like covering like fur which only warm-blooded animals have. Pterosaurs need this feature to keep temperature warm. Therefore, pterosaurs are warm-blooded animal which has fast metabolism and enable generate enough energy for flying.
In addition, reading material lists that pterosaurs have a heavy weight which indicate they cannot flap wings fast to take off from the ground. In controversy, speakers says pterosaurs have special features to gain flying ability. They have hollow and light bone in order to decrease the body weight drastically. As a result, pterosaurs flap their wings to fly without any doubt. Then, the second points in the passage does not hold the water.
At last but not least, despite the statement in the passage that large pterosaurs need big and strong back muscle to take off from the ground. The listening material points out that pterosaurs has different way to launch than birds, they usually use 4 limbs to run fast enough to gain the speed they need or jump high enough to fly. As a result the third reason is refuted by clear and strong evidence in lecture.
