▶ Your Answer :
The professor in the lecture contends that the orb web is
not the best type of webs to capture preys. This contradicts the reading
passage’s claim that the orb web works the best to hold preys tight.
First, the professor claims that the orb web
is easily detected because it is highly visible. She states that the orb web displays
a conspicuous pattern of silk. In order to illuminate what she means, she mentions
one specific type of spiders which creates an orb web where two lines
intersect near the center of the web as an example. She states that it allows
the insects to see and avoid the web. This contradicts the reading passage’s
claim that the orb web is hard to discover for the insects.
Secondly, the professor argues that the orb
web is not difficult to escape. She goes on to say that since the orb web is
composed of thin silks, it is not durable enough to endure the struggle of big
insects. She says that the orb web is easily destroyed so that insects captured
in it can break free without putting much effort. This casts doubt on the reading
passage’s claim that the unique design of orb webs makes the captured insects
hard to resist the strangle of the web.
