Both the reading and the listening are talking about a type of an evergreen tree, named Torreya. The author of the reading states that there are ways to address the decline of Torreya. However, the professor in the listening thinks the statement is nonsense and incorrect by stating that none of the three ways will work.
First, **the professor thinks that the weather in northern part of Florida, where Torreya used to be found in abundance, is not suitable for Torreya anymore. While experts in passage attempt to reestablish Torreya in the same location in which it used to be. ** The professor explains that the microclimate there will be warmer and dryer because of global warming and disappear of wetlands.
Second, **the reading believes that moving Torreya to an entirely different location is helpful to address the decline of this species, while the professor in lecture disagrees with it. **The professor thinks Black lock tree was in the north and became in danger and it is same to Torreya.
Third, unlike what the reading states, in listening to the professor believes that research centers would have no capacity to afford Torreya to live there. The professor explains that Torreya needs a large lab to reserve. Besides, it also needs a long-term observation to preserve this kind of species.

Students in school usually only have contact with their teachers and friends. Except for the knowledge in books, teachers and friends most influence on students. Here comes a question. Which one is more influential on students, their teachers or their friends? As far as I am concerned, students are more influenced by their teachers than friends.

To begin with, teachers live longer than students and they experience more that students, too. Once there were some people getting trouble with facing difficulty and became depressed. Our head teacher told them experiences in his past to encourage them out of the trouble. And obviously, it is very useful.

In addition, teachers are experts in their special teaching area. In learning the facts, they will give students some useful ideas to help them to understand and remember it. Besides, teachers have deep understood about what they are teaching. So they have the ability to guide students that not only thinking in the area of subjects but also imagining those subjects with the whole world. Like my chemistry teacher in my senior high school, who is a really expert in teaching chemistry and guiding students. He used to tell us to think about the situation of politics in the world while teaching the facts about the molecule. It was so impressed that I felt beautiful of this material world and all is the same.

Furthermore, if there is one of their teachers who is the most appreciated one in students' mind, students will most influence by those teachers. Students are likely to be a teacher to imitate their favorable teachers. Students will set teachers as their life goal because they believe their favorable teachers are doing a meaningful job. Besides, students admire their teachers' life, spirits or even the way they do everything. So it is possible for students to learn from their teachers and be someone like their favorable teachers.

From what I have discussed above, it is obviously that teachers have more influence on students from either experience or skills.
