TPO 30
In the reading passage, the author claims that thre are three viable explanation for neglecting applying a burning mirror, which was an ancient Greek weapon used 2200 years ago, when they were in war with Roman. However, finding all the ideas implausible and questionable the professor casts doubt on what is presented in the text, and believes that all of the points mentioned in the reading are inconvincing; therefore, he states some evidence to the contrary.
At first, the author argues that the Greeks, in that era, had not progresseed enough to generate such developed tools since not only did it require a wide polished copper but it also would have to be manifactured accurately. Conversely, the lecturer points out that experiments have revealed that even the small flat of a polished copper could have caused such fire. Moreover, the mathematical experiments () ratify this issue as well and the Greeks were capable to percisely produce the polished copper flats in small size. Consequently, they were technically enable to produce a burning mirror.
In adiition, the reading passage holds the view that setting up such fire necessiteted to remain the roman ship unmoved for rather 30 minutues which is absolutely imossible idea. On the other hand, the professor dismisses this idea by clarifying the fact that this is true if the Romans' ships had been entirely created from the wood, but thet were not nonetheless. Indeed, a substant called pitch were utilized to make the Romans' ships water proof which quickly got fired and this flam would have easily scattered into the woody part of the ships.
Finally, the author asserts that there is not any justification for applyig the burning mirror while another Greek's weapon which was prevalent in that period of time, flamin arrows. THe professor, thought, disputes this idea by subscribing the fact that the Roman's force was complitely aware of the presence of such device by the Greek army. Therefore, having used another weapon, Greeks not ontly surprised Romans, but aslo this approach was far more efficient. Indeed, since flaming arrows' fire was easily noticeable while the fire were comming from the new device was hidden at the frist glance and suddenly they just saw their ships burning in fire.
