The lecturer completely refuses the statements in the reading passage. The lecturer says that Chevalier’s memoir is reliable. She refuses the statements in the reading passage in three aspects.
First, Chevalier is rich. Chevalier had to sell something first to get money. Indeed he was quite rich. Sometimes he had to borrow some money form others and waited for his money to get back. But this does not mean that he is poor.
Second, the conversations of Chevalier and Voltaire are accurately. This is because Chevalier wrote down everything he remembered immediately after he talked with Voltaire in the hotel. So the conversations are accurately.
Third, she says that it is hard to bribe the jailers to free Chevalier. Other prisoners had even more powerful friends than Chevalier. But they could not bribe the jailers to be free. So Chevalier had to escape from prison. There is another evidence is that the prison that Chevalier was in is repaired.
