TOEFL T P O 16 - Integrated Writing Task
Both, the reading and the lecture, talk about the situation of the science of archaeology in the twenty century. The reading claims that it faced important issues and limitations in Britain, whereas the lecturer has a counter opinion. she says that in 1990 the government release new measurements enhancing that situation. Furthermore, she refutes each reason presented, casting doubts in the author's beliefs.
Firstly, the reading points out that an elevated number of articles were destroyed during the construction' works. Notwithstanding, the orator disproves this idea by saying, that the new guidelines establish clearly that every place should be examined by archaeologists before any work begin. With that, they have the possibility to know if exist some of archaeological interest in the area and creating a conservation plan with the local authorities and the construction company.
Secondly, the test's author argues that the financial support for archaeology was incorrect, owing to the major part of the capital come from the government and grants. Nonetheless, the professor mentions that, with the new rules, construction companies have to pay for the initial archaeological inspection of the lands and any other work of preservation that should be carried out. this capital allows to exam new sites of interest; which this argument falls apart.
Finally, the reading remarks that it was complicated to get a career in archaeology, because those jobs were found by universities or the government and there were not too many of them available. However, the professor highlights the weakness of this point by noticing that, under the new regulations, more specialists in archaeologist are needed and, as a result, there are more positions available. Therefore, the number of graduated in that discipline is higher than ever before, which help the preservation of the patrimony.
