▶ Your Answer : In the reading passage there is ample support to the author's claim that constuction the maglev train between New york and Washington D.C is beneficial. However, the professor in the lecture gives several reasons as a rebuttal to the author's point.
First, the professor contends that it is not convincing that creating a new type of train would have assertory positive impact on public.This is because each rail on the above ground costs about 20 million dollars per one kilometer which is not lucrative comparing investments people spent on. Moreover, the two cities only require under ground system which costs 10 billion dollars. This casts doubt on the reading passage's claim that the public and government are expecting the maglev train to have positive effects.
Next, the professor insists that there would be environment issues with the marglev train construction. He says that even though the maglev trails are thin, the routes and the tracks are already in place. Therefore, they had to destroy the natures nearby cites or not to damage the environment, they should make trails and routes with existing structure. This counters the reading passage's assertion that the creating new train will not cause hazardous problem in nature due to thin railways. Finally, the professor argues that it is not easy that the malglev train will shorten the traveling time. Their opposite companies, such as airlines and other train companies have lobbying power in Washington D.C. Once the marglev train constructions begin to generated, they would slow down overall process related to the construction such as the cites of construction and permits. This counters the reading passage's suggestion that the Malgev train is expected to reduce duration of traveling through its higher speed.
