TPO 54 Integrated Writing Task
The reading passage points out that the level of salt in Salton Sea is increasing for years, and it proposes three solution. However, the professor in the lecture disagrees the solutions.
First, the reading passage believes that pumping water into heat and the salt and other materials would be left behind. However, the professor says the left material may be toxic to animals and humans. If the wind blows the materials, people may bring them in. That is dangerous to human health. Thus, this solution is not feasible.
Second, the reading passage proposes to bring ocean water into the lake to decrease the lake’s salinity. However, the professor thinks the local government may not have enough resources to build the pipelines to bring ocean water. And considering the long distance between the lake and nearest ocean, this project could be very expensive.
Third, the reading passage indicates that dividing the lake into several sections by constructing walls could control the lake’s salinity. The professor argues that the walls may work for a short while. When the lake occurs earthquake, the walls may be destroyed and the salinity would be back again. Therefore, this solution could not solve the problem for a long time.

The reading passage points out that the level of salt in [article error ] Salton Sea is increasing for years, and it[ unclear pronoun] proposes three solution[ grammatical error] . However, the professor in the lecture disagrees [ preposition error] the solutions.
First, the reading passage believes that pumping water into heat[wrong word ] and the salt and other materials would be left behind[unclear passive sentence ] . However, the professor says the left material may be toxic to animals and humans. If the wind blows the materials, people may bring them in. That is dangerous to human health. Thus, this solution is not feasible.
Second, the reading passage proposes to bring ocean water into the lake to decrease the lake’s salinity. However, the professor thinks the local government may not have enough resources to build the pipelines to bring ocean water[ repetition] . And[punctuation error with coordinating word ] considering the long distance between the lake and nearest ocean, this project could be very expensive.
Third, the reading passage indicates that dividing the lake into several sections by constructing walls could control the lake’s salinity. The professor argues that the walls may work for a short while[ wrong word] . When the lake occurs earthquake[absurd sentence ] , the walls may be destroyed and the salinity would be back again. Therefore, this solution could not solve the problem for a long time[ wrong phrase] .
November 14, 2019 at 2:26 amThe reading passage points out that the level of salt in Salton Sea’s water is increasing for years, thus proposes three solutions to solve this problem. However, the professor in the lecture disagrees with the solutions.
First, the reading passage believes that the salt and other materials would be left behind by pumping and heating water. However, the professor says the left material may be toxic to animals and humans. If the wind blows the materials, people may bring them in. That is dangerous to human health. Thus, this solution is not feasible.
Second, the reading passage proposes to bring ocean water into the lake to decrease the lake’s salinity. However, the professor thinks the local government may not have enough resources to build the pipelines to do this. Meanwhile, considering the long distance between the lake and nearest ocean, this project could be very expensive.
Third, the reading passage indicates that dividing the lake into several sections by constructing walls could control the lake’s salinity. The professor argues that the walls may work for a short time. If earthquake happens in the lake, the walls may be destroyed and the salinity would be back again. Therefore, this solution could not solve the problem actually.
