Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they contrast with specific points made in the reading passage.
Both the reading and the listening discuss pruning. The article states that it controls the size of a tree. However, the lecture contrasts with specific points made in the reading passage. The professor says that pruning needs to be done wisely otherwise it can cause severe damages.
The first point the professor makes is that if the pruning is poorly done, it needs to be removed. It is going to force the side branches and this can cause damages to a car. This point contrasts the point made in the reading. The latter states that pruning flourishes trees and makes large branches challenge small ones.
Furthermore, the professor points out that when the trees start flourish with poor pruning its leave and breaches will cause damage as well. Therefore, The leaves will need to be removed or broken. This contrasts the information from the reading. According to the passage the aim of pruning is to improve the tree shape.
Finally, the lecture states that in order to avert further issues the tree should be destroyed. This point contrasts the reading's key point. According to the article pruning should be done only to take away broken branches.
