The reading and speaker discuss a phenomenon called Quacker sound in Russian submarines patrolling in the North and Arctic Ocean from different perspectives. The author of the reading gives three reasons to explain his idea. However, the speaker casts doubt on the claims made in the article. He says that none of those reasons that the article has mentioned are convincing.
First of all, the author of the reading points out that the Quacker sound comes from the courtship of orca whales. This point is challenged by the speaker. He restates the fact that the orca whales live near the surface of the ocean. Meanwhile, the sound was detected from the deep of the ocean.
Secondly, the author of the reading contends that huge squids cause the quacker sound. The speaker rebuts this argument by saying that strange sound that the article has stated that occurred since 1960 to 1980 and never happened again. In fact, the giant squids continue living in the ocean until now.
Finally, the author of the reading states that the Quacker sound could be the sound from some military technology to patrol areas. The speaker, on the other hand, opposes this point by saying that the Quacker sound moves around rapidly and its locations changed suddenly. He puts forth the idea that until now no one can have any idea to invent the sound that as fast as the quacker sound.
