TPO-18 - Integrated Writing Task In the 1950s Torreya taxifoha, a type of evergreen tree once very common in the state of Florida, started to die out. No one is sure exactly what caused the decline, but chances are good that if nothing is done, Torreya wi

The reading states that experts are considering three options to help a special tree called Torreya grow in large quantities and thrive again. The professor states that none of these options are satisfactory solutions for the problem and refutes each of the options.
First, the article states that the first option is to reestablish Torreya in the same location in which it thrived for thousands of years. The professor says that Torreya is unlikely to grow in the same location again since the environment is strongly affected by the temperature increase caused by global warming and wetlands are drained by floods. She believes that Torreya cannot survive within the same location and finally start to get extinct again.
Second, the article claims that the second option is to move Torreya to an entirely different location, far from its Florida microclimate in the northern forests where the temperature is significantly cooler. The lecturer states that when black locus was moved to north there were some consequences and these trees spread so quickly and that caused to kill other plants which were already in the danger of extinction. She mentions that there are unpredictable consequences for any species movement to a new location.
Third, the reading contends that the third option is to preserve Torreya in research centers. The professor claims that in this situation the small population will not be able to resist disease. She adds that in order to resist disease large population of trees and reverse is needed and preserved environments do not have the enough capacity for this population, therefore Torreya will not be capable of surviving disease in the long term.
