Essay topics:

Bears are mammals of the family Ursidae. Bears are classified as caniforms, or doglike
carnivorans, with the pinnipeds being their closest living relatives. Although there are only
eight living species of bear, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats
throughout the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere. Bears are
found on the continents of North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. There are a few
things to keep in mind about bears.
When bears lose their fear of people, they become more likely to attack. Therefore, in
communities where bears and humans live in close proximity to each other, and, if the people
in those communities feed the bears, the bears will recognize humans as a food source,
hence making them more likely to attack humans in the future.
Bears are naturally aggressive toward humans. This aggression may be displayed by the bear
standing on its hind legs, a sure signal that it is preparing to charge its victim. In addition,
before attacking humans, bears are known to huff and growl or even slap the ground, again
indicating that they are about to attack.
If you are confronted with an attacking bear, there are three things that you can do which
may protect you from these predators. First, if the bear charges, run away as fast as you can.
Second, if there is a tree nearby, climb it quickly, for most bears are unable to follow you up
the tree. Third, as a last resort, the best defense against a bear is a gun. Shoot it as many
times as you can, which will make it less likely to attack you.

Writing Prompt: Summarize the main points in the lecture explaining how they oppose the main points
in the reading passage.

The reading passage and lecturer both talk about bears. While the author argues that it can be dangerous for humans to coexist with bears, the lecturer feels that it is absolutely safe.

First of all, according to the reading passage, when bears doesn’t fear someone, they are more likely to attack them; therefore, people who feed bear and stay close to them are more likely to be attacked by them since they see them as food source. However, the lectures disputes this arguement. He thinks that bears won’t attack people whom he trusts. To bolster his claims he provides example of Minnesota where people and bears are living together since 40 years. He also provides example of pensilvenia where 7000 people live with 21 bears.

Secondly, the author of the reading passage believes that bears are aggressive. He mentions some early signs of a bear attack such as standing on the hind leg, luft and growl and slapping the ground. However, the lecturer contends these signs. The lecturer asserts that when bear is standing on hind leg he is trying to get a better view, and luft and growl are to communicate dominance.

Lastly, the author suggests that the best way to rescue from bear attack is to Run, Climb, and using a gun. However, the lecturer challenges this argument by stating that instead of running we should talk to bear, climb the tree as even bears are capable to do so, and it is better to use lethal pepper spray instead of gun on bear.

In conclusion, both the reading passage and author talks about bears and ways to rescue from a bear attack. However, the lecturer challenges 3 main points specified by the author.
