The material discusses the fact of reaching Robert E. Peary to the North pole. While the reading claims some declarations ensured that he reached the North pole, the listening disagrees and says that there is no solid evidence the Peary reached the North pole, and the reading claims are unconvincing.
First, the author states that the committee that done by the National Geographic society concluded that Peary reached the North Pole. On the other hand, the professor opposes this and mentions that the committee was not objective. The lecturer adds the members of this committee were from Peary's friends, and they were contributed to funding his travel to the North Pole. Furthermore, the speaker says that this committee took two days, so they did not examine his travel properly. The lecturer concluded that the committee's investigation was biased and not trustworthy.
Second, the writer points out that Peary could reach the North pole in thirty-seven days since Avery did the same travel in less than thirty-seven days. On the contrary, the professor refutes this and contends that Avery's travel was different than Peary's. The lecturer explains that Avery's slide was less weight than Peary's one because he did not transport his food in his slide. The speaker says that the food was dropped to him by an airplane. Moreover, the listening posits that the weather condition when Avery did his travel was more favorable than when Peary traveled to The North Pole.
Third, the reading states that there are many photographs taken by Peary to support his claim. Conversely, the lecturer contradicts this and says that the photos that could use to detect the sun's position should be very precise. However, the professor mentions that the Peary used a primitive camera, so its picture was fussy and worn. Likewise, the speaker adds that the shadow was blurred and not accurate, so it could not detect the exact position of the sun.
