The passage claims that the Greeks never really built the burning mirror, while the lecture argues that claims in the reading are unconvincing.
In the first place, the author asserts that the ancient Greeks did not have enough technology to build a large sheet of cooper mirror with parabolic shape. In contrast, the speaker believes that the Greeks did not need to build a single sheet of cooper mirror. Instead, they can use dozens of small pieces of cooper and arrange them into a parabolic shape to make a mirror. The Greek mathematicians know the properties of parabola and can thus direct the building.
Besides, the reading passage states that the burning mirror which might take a long time to set a ship on fire is impractical. However, this is contradicted by the listening that it would take ten minutes for burning mirror to set the wood on fire but the Roman boats were not just made of wood. A sticky material called pitch which was used to seal wood space and make the boat waterproof would catch fire within seconds and the fire would spread to the wood even if the boat was moving.
Finally, the writer points out that there is no reason for the Greek to build burning mirror which is not more effective than flaming arrow, while the professor claims that Roman soldiers were familiar with flaming arrows and were ready to watch for them but they could not see the burning rays of a mirror. Thus the fire would start more surprisingly at some unobserved places.
Generally speaking, one’ s satisfaction with work, to a large extent, reflects one’ s sense of happiness in life. Yet which kind of working pattern better contributes to good working experience: working three days a week for long hours or five days for shorter hours? In my opinion, it is more enjoyable to choose the latter, which can guarantee both working and living quality.
To begin with, I can ensure the quality of my work by working five days a week for shorter hours. Given that eight-hours working is usually required for five days in a week, working three days means working more than thirteen hours a day! Thus how can we keep energetic since we have such little time left for eating and sleeping? Naturally, I might easily feel exhausted in the afternoon, failing to think clearly and sharply, or even fall asleep in the evening, beginning to hate my job, let alone enjoy it. Eight-hours- working, however, provides me with opportunities to have a nap after lunch and thus better devote to afternoon working. More importantly, I can timely summarize a whole day working, adjust the next day plan and even study a while in the evening. Take my cousin’ s experience of being an intern in the famous accounting firm Deloitte for example. She worked from 8a.m. to 10p.m., doing accounting, writing reports and making presentations. Ambitious as she was, she still messed up some important data and missed some meeting content due to a lack of sleep. As far as I know, being a perfectionist, she would never allow herself to make any mistakes; yet exhaust from long time working got her.
Additionally, I can enjoy a regular and healthy life with five-days working pattern. Suppose I need to work thirteen hours a day; though I might only spend half an hour on lunch or dinner, it will still be 10p.m. at the end of the day. In this case, a daily working out for an hour is nearly impossible, let alone some personal entertainment time. Worse still, the four-days “weekend” can never make up because it is natural for anyone working so long to sleep as much as he can on the first day and then adjust his daily routine on the following three days — a frequent shift between two distinctive lifestyle is no good to health. For instance, the reason why my father enjoys his work so well is that every day he can sit with us for a decent meal, talking and laughing. Moreover, thanks to his leisure time after 6p.m. during workdays, he never misses gym hours or any of my school meetings or activities. Obviously, since the amount of working is unchanged, why not balance work and life and thus enjoy both?
In conclusion, working five days a week is a superior choice because this way of working can bring a high quality of work and life.
