Essay topics:

When we think about predicting earthquakes, the various methods suggested in the reading may seem valid. But they do not hold clear evidence, and therefore, the reasons for each method are questionable.

Let’s start off with the animal behavior. Well, it is actually not true that animals act differently before earthquakes. Instead, it is likely that these animals are simply reacting to mild shaking rather than foretelling that a destructive earthquake is striking. And of course, minor trembling does not always lead to earthquakes. So, blindly relying on the changes in animal behaviors is not the best option.

Second, headaches are not a reliable sign of the natural disaster. As a matter of fact, headaches are one of the rarest symptoms before earthquakes, meaning not many people go through the pain as a prior notice. Because the amount of magnetite inside our brains is so small, the sensitivity system may barely be influenced. And you know, most importantly, we don’t encounter headaches just because of earthquakes, do we?

And lastly, relying on radon emission is also not a practical way to predict earthquakes. Unfortunately, radon emission from rocks does not always forecast earthquakes. In some cases, radon emission can also be caused by landslides, crushing rocks, or other impacts that lead to rock fractures. So, we should not dismiss other factors that can increase the concentration of radon in our atmosphere. I mean, relying on radon emission might just be responding to false alarm

Both the reading and lecture discuss about various earthquake predicting methods. Former gives three methods of predicting eathquake and latter dismisses the three warning tools as unreliable.

First of all, the author of the reading claims that observing animal behavior leads to predicting earthquake. The lecturer refutes this idea by saying that animal bahaviors can be seen for mild shaking, trembling. That shakings are not associated with earthquake in most of the cases. That's why this predicting method holds no water as reliable tool.

Furthermore, the reading says that human headache occuring can be used for earthquake predicting. The lecturer counters this by saying that headache is a rare symptoms and its unreliable. Human brain holds small amount of magnetite and that barely influenced by earthquake. As a result , it is not a valid methods as describe in reading for predicting eartquake.

Finally, the author of the reading discusses about measuring radon emission to predict earthquake. However, the author of the lecture doesn't agree with this idea of radio active emission. Lecturer doesn't think this is as pragmatic way to think only earthquake causes emission of radon gas. Rather landslides, crushing rocks are the reasons for emission of radon. So, if it is taken consideration for predicting earthquake, then it might be a false alarm or signal for earthquake.
