Both the reading and the listening materials discuss size of animals in the past. To be more specific, the reading argues that animals in past were bigger than they are today. On the contrary, the lecturer refutes this notion and believes that it is far from the truth.
First and foremost, the reading starts by stating that ancient mammals were gigantic because the earth had plenty supply of oxygen. This is challenged by the professor, who thinks that the reading’s argument is groundless. He fosters his idea by claiming that there were a lot of volcano mountains during then, so carbon will take over most of the breathing air for animals. This means the reading’s point is inaccurate.
Furthermore, the reading claims that a great amount of nutrients from plants allows animals in the past to have larger body. In contrast, the lecturer disagrees with this notion and claims that this idea is groundless. He further explains that although there were plenty of plants, the amount of nutrients in those trees were too little to support animal with big side. Indeed, the reading notion is not true.
Finally, the reading finishes by claiming that warm climate enables mammals to growth into bigger size. On the other hand, the lecturer believes that this is not true because they need to cool environment to release the energy. To be more clearly, when they finish their meals, ancient animals’ body will increase heat; large mammals will contain more energy, so in order to keep them healthy, gigant animals will live in cold areas. As a result, the reading is unconvincing.
