The reading passage explains some theories about the sources of the strange sounds heard by Russian submarines. However, the lecturer finds all the ideas discussed by the reading passage dubious and suggests some evidence to refute them all.
First, the writer claims that the sources of strange noise in the ocean might be male and female orca whales that tried to communicate with each other. On the contrary, the professor dismisses this idea due to the fact that the orca whales live on the surface of the ocean in contrast to the submarines which move in deep of the ocean. Therefore, they could not hear the sounds of the whales.
Furthermore, the author asserts that this sound might related to the giant squids who live deep in the ocean. Conversely, the speaker underlines the fact that the submarines heard the sounds only a specific time period in the past. Due to the fact that the squids live now in the oceans, if the sound created by these animals, the submarines should hear the sound nowadays.
Finally, the reading passage believes that the sound could release by some military technology of other countries. The reading, on the other hand, makes the argument that the source of the sound moved around with such speed pace that even the submarines built with new technology cannot move at that speed. So, the sound resource could not relate to a manmade technology.
