Both the reading and the listening discuss the archeological discovery of the precious old artifacts and their preservation in the United Kingdom. The author believes that there are three possible obstacles that limit this process. The lecturer challenges the claims made by the author. She states that the new enforced rules in 1990, have improved the situation and overcome the mentioned obstacles.
To begin with, the author suggests that all the significant increase in the population resulted in increasing the constructions at the expense of the archeological artifacts. The lecturer challenges this specific argument by asserting that the new rule requires examination of any sites before starting constructions. If the site contains valuable artifacts, the builders and archeologists will make a plan to preserve the precious artifacts. And also they can build around the site without losing any valuables. Thus, This rule prevents any loss in the artifacts.
Secondly, the writer argues that the available budget for archeological research is very limited and only the governments support this kind of projects. The lecturer, however, rebuts this claim by explaining that the new guidance overcame this problem by asking the construction companies to pay for the initial examination and all the work requested. Based on this new funding, the archeologists are allowed to do more research than before. Finally, the author posits that it is very hard to be an archeologist and this specific job is not readily available in Britain. In contrast, the lecturer casts doubts on this point by pointing out that archeologists are required to be hired in all stages and the companies pay them well. Archeologists get involved in many tasks including examination of the site, making preservation plans, doing research and
