The reading discusses three bad effects of people reading less literature than they used to. the lecture shows why these effects are not so bad or are caused by something other than people choosing not to read so much literature.
The article states that people, especially the ones are reading less literaure like: novels, plays and poems today and they used to, and that this is a adverse change for the culture of the public generally. The author provides three reasons to support this statement. However, the professor diagrees with this statement. She established that literature is not the only form of book that is intellectually stimulating, and she opposes every of the author's reason.
First, the article claims that by reading less literature, the public is missing out on the important benefits. The professor refutes this point, she stated that there are numerous books and forms of entertainment and education that are beneficial to the public apart from literature, some of the books she mentioned were: political and sceince books, that are of high quality and intellectually outstanding.
Second, the article states that diverting the time spent on literature to other forms of entertainment like: television and visiting webpages lowers the level of the culture generally. The professor disagree with this, she explained that people were not wasting their time by choosing to use other forms of entertainment, she noted that the cultutral values are not declining, but rather this new forms of entertainment have been able to adopt better forms of expression that are appealing to contemporary users that literature.
Finally, the article blames readers for the future decline of literatue. The author stated that writing and reading of literature will decline because of the poor standards of present readers. However, the professor opposes this point by stating that some of the likely reasons for the decline is mostly the author's fault. She reveals that modern literatures tends to be difficult, and that earlier readers might not have read these modern literaures like they read literatures in the past if given the opportunity.
And so, this is how the professors lecture contradicts the statement and reasons given in the article.
