In this set of materials, the reading passage explores three effective solutions to prevent birds from injured by hitting on glass, and the professor's lecture deals with the same topic. However, he casts doubts on these solutions, and in the lecture, he provides three specific points to substantiate his opinion.
To begin with, although the reading passage suggests that replacing regular glass with one-way glass could prevent birds from flying through it, the professor argues in the lecture that one-way glass, which serves as mirrors, reflects skies or trees outside the building. Accordingly, birds will fly to the reflection of skies or trees outside the building. Clearly, professor's argument refutes its counterpart in the reading.
Moreover, despite the statement in the reading that painting colorful lines or designs, which humans can see through the opening, on window glass is also a solution, the professor contends that birds will fly through window glass since birds regard these openings as big holes. He supports this point with the fact that those unpainted areas on the window glass are small and darken the buildings.
Finally, the author of the reading claims that using magnetic signals to guide birds away from the building is also a feasible solution, whereas the professor asserts that birds only use their magnetic skills when traveling long distances, such as when flying to warm areas rather than cities to cities. Then he explains that this claim is indefensible by pointing out that birds use their sight and the sense of brightness of light to direct their way while traveling short distances, for instance, flying in the city.
