Although both ¬the reading and listening passage deal with the same topic: encyclopedias, their perspective are different. While the author of the reading passage believes that traditional printed encyclopedia is better than online encyclopedia, the lecturer casts doubt on the writer’s idea. He thinks that online encyclopedia has some impressive advantage.
The first point made in the reading passage is that contributors to the online encyclopedia lack credentials. The article noted that the contribution partially informed inaccurate information to the reader. Besides, the traditional encyclopedia’s contribution was written by trained experts who guaranteed a good outcome. However, the lecturer contradicts the writer’s idea and asserts that there were mistakes in the work of writer in traditional forms. Moreover, he argues the errors can last for a decade without being corrected. Still, the online encyclopedia errors can easily be corrected through the Internet.
Another point made in the reading passage is that unscrupulous or hacker have the chance to corrupt the work through the online encyclopedia. It is mentioned that user who cannot tell the entry has been tampered with the information that never happens in traditional encyclopedia. On the contrary, the author claims that company using online system are improved their security by employing some stragies. He puts forth his idea by mentioning the pusher system, which limits the change in format in news, prevents the hacker from doing their work. In addition, hiring special monitor to control the system is also a good way to increase security for online encyclopedia.
The last point mentioned in the reading is that online encyclopedia focus on many topics which creates a false impression of important news. The article mentioned the example of a student doing history homework. While the traditional forms provides significant information about historical events for the students, the online instead includes major historical ones that attracts more attentions as a long-running television program. On the other hand, the lecturer refutes the writer’s idea and claims that printed new has less space than online ones. Therefore, they limit their choice about writing topics. However, the online newspaper has diversity topics thanks to the wide space which is the most advantage to the online encyclopedia.
