The material discusses that the vessels that was discovered on Irap were used as electric batteries. While the reading says that it is not likely that the vessels wered used as electric batteries, the listening challenges this and states that batteries are a good explaination of the vessels' usage.
First, the author mentions that if the vessels were used as batteries, they should have been attached to some conductors. On the other hand, the professor opposes this and posits that these vessels were discovered by local people, not trained archaeologist. The lecturer adds that they might find conductors, but they did not know their importance. The listening points out that these conductors might be there, but they seemed to be unintersting to the local people.
Second, the writer states that these vessels look like the copper cylinders that were used for holding scrolls. On the contrary, the professor contradicts this and mentions that these vessels might be used originally to hold scrolls. The ecturer adds that latter they foud that they could produce electricity with a specific liquid. the listening explains that the vessels could be used for one purpose then adapted to another one.
Third, the reading states that ancient people did not have any purpose to use electricity. Conversely, the listening refutes this and states that ancient people could use it as invisible power or to convince others that they had a magical power. The speaker adds that modern phsicians use power in medical purposes, such as revealing pain, so ancient people might use electricity for the same reason.
