▶ Your Answer : The reading and the lecturer both talk about whales lying helplessly on the beach. The reading argued there are several ways to explain why some wales stranded on the beach. However, the lecturer disagreed with that opinion by manifesting three reasons.
First, the reading said whales stranded because of wind patterns. Some wind blows from far ocean to land and makes stream in that direction. And whales follow that stream because the stream contains a great number of fishes they can eat. The lecturer said it cannot explain all of these stranding. Winds make current in sea from land to far ocean, and in this case, it cannot be good explanation.
Secondly, the reading stated that whales which have illness came ashore, with example that many of whales lying on the beach are already dead when they wash up on beach. In contrast, the lecturer casts a doubt on this reason because most of the whales are not dead or sick. It is often that volunteers help the whales that came up on the beach to go back to the ocean.
Finally, the last reason of the reading is disorientation. Whales which are not able to detect the gentle sloped coastlines near beaches swim too close to shore and became stranded. However, the lecturer said it is completely not true. If it is correct explain, whales which lives nearby beach have to stranded on the beach in thinking commonly, but it is not.
