    TPO49 Integrated Writing: Like many creatures, humpback whales migrate long distances for feeding and mating purposes. 

    The reading passage and the listening part both discuss how humpback whales can migrate long distance but not losing. The passage points out that they rely on stars, and shows three reasons to support this idea. However, the professor in the lecture totally disagrees with this statement.

    First, the reading part suggests that humpback whales are of intelligence to guide directions by using stars, because they have complex brains. On the contrary, the professor says that there are also some other animals can use stars to navigate by, such as ducks, whose intelligence is about on average. Thus, using stars to guide directions may be born with and has nothing to do with intelligence.

    Second, the reading shows that whales can migrate in straight lines because of using stars as oriental objects. But the lecture claims the Earth’s magnetic flied helps humpback whales navigate in straight lines instead of stars. According to the research result, humpback whales’ brains have biomagnetite which can use magnetic flied to create some feels to orient them.

    Third, the passage says that humpback whales sometimes will make their heads above the water to look for stars, which is called spy-hopping. But the professor points out that even though this activity is rare, sharks will also perform like that. Sharks use it to hurt animals, however, rather than looking star or migrating. Meanwhile, humpback whales will spy hop during the day, when have no stars in the sky. So, under these situations, humpback whales use stars just for speculation.
