TPO-31 - Integrated Writing Task A fossil skeleton of a dinosaur called Sinosauropteryx, preserved in volcanic ash, was discovered in Liaoning, China, in 1996. Interestingly, the fossil included a pattern of fine lines surrounding the skeletal bones. Some

The lecture and reading both discuss Sinosauropteryx. The reading claims that in 1996, scientist found kind of Sinosauropteryx fossils that have lines in their bones which displays that they had feathers. The lecture states that evident represent Sinosauropteryx had feathers which are very strong and the reading reasons' are very unconvinced.

First of all, the reading passage posits that this line of the structure of dinosaur are not belong to the structure and this line created after dinosaur become pass away. According to the reading this line after that formed as line of fossils. The lecture contradict this idea that when dinosaur dead, the fossils become decomposed and preserved volcanic ash and this bones belong to the other animal.

In addition, the reading hold the view that although this fine line created in the bones of dinosaur, the scientist cannot say what kind of structure has a line. According to the reading, some scientists said that, this line are trace of frills in the animal's fossils instead of feathers. The lecture dismisses this point due to the fact that this idea that this line were frills not convince and frills do not use protein unlike of the feathers. According to the lecture, definitely their structure had a feathers.

Lastly, the reading passage claims that the most important thing that some port of Sinosauropteryx's body has a feather such as tail and this feathers has role to regulate the temperature of body. The lecture refutes this claims by stating that this feather may not regulate the body temperature and because this feather on the tails show that structure of color such as white and brown.
