According to the reading, there is ample support for the author's claim that historians have found clear evidence that the Chinese had already explored America before Columbus arrived in 1492. However, the professor in the lecture gives several reanson as a rebuttal for the author's point.
First, the professor contends that an old Chinese map is fictional closer to fiction. To be specific, there is no evidence that it was found in 1418, it is clearly made after in 1492 that Columbus arrived. This map included two hemispheres which was not exist in 1500s. This casts doubt on the reading passage's claim that the Chinese map depicted North America, and it is represented with incredible accuracy.
Next, the professor insists that the artifacts that was found in the Pacific Northwest can not be a proof. This is hard to understand that unearthed a few acient Chinese coins can be a evidence that they came before because it is too filmsy. This counters the reading passage's assertion that archaeologists have unearthed ancient Chinese coins which had a distinctive style from the early 1400s at several sites in the Pacific Northwest.
Finally, the professor argues that the lacquering technique that shared by Chinese and Mexico is just a coincidence. He gave an example to make his point. Pyramid located in Egypt and America does not mean there was a connection between them. It means just they had same building style and this can be applied to the lacquering technique too. This refutes the reading passage's suggestion that a traditional Chinese lacquering techniqure was in use in Mexico prior to Columbus' arrival.

왜 안 적으시는건가요? 통합형의 whole point가 두 주장 비교인 만큼, 어디서 나온 주장인지 정확하게 명시하는 거 정말 중요합니다.
시제 오류 너무 많습니다. (과거형이랑 has been p,p이런거 다시 복습하는 거 추천합니다)
어휘 오류도 많은 편입니다. (spelling오류와 문장에 맞지 않는 어휘를 쓴다는 등)
