Orcas

Did you know that orcas, or killer whales can grow up to be 21-23 feet long? This essay will tell you three facts about orcas. They are 1) Killer whales are about 7 meters long, 2) Orcas in the wild live about 60-70 years unless hunted down and killed, and 3) Killer whales live all over the world’s oceans.

A full grown orca can be 7 meters long or 21-23 feet long when full grown. Though they are about 4 times as tall as the average human adult, they are only half the size of the the biggest of the toothed whales. The sperm whale, which is about 52 feet long, is twice the size of the orca. But toothed whales are smaller than baleen whales, which are the biggest whales of the two groups.

Orcas in the wild could live 60-70 years, but in captivity, they only live about 9 years, because tricks affect the killer whale’s brain, and they tend to live shorter. However, seaworld claims that orcas in their aquarium live as long as their cousins in the wild.

Killer whales are distributed all over the world’s oceans, and they are especially found in antarctic waters, and they live there because orcas have thick blubber to survive in the freezing depths of the waters. They are easily seen because they are black and white, which stands out quite a lot.

The facts about orcas were: 1) Orcas are about 7 meters long, 2) They live 60-70 years in the wild, and 3) They live all over the world’s oceans. For more information go to

已经在给他找辅导他写作的老师了。他写得很快，就是干巴巴，没血没肉的。今天他还跟我说，妈，现在好像我在班里什么都是最好的除了英文。不过，我的拼写，可是班里的第三名。他还说，只要课间有下chess，他不费力就把他们都赢了。连玩魔方都没人能跟他比。看来当鸡头也真不错，起码自信心满满的。放假前的一天，孩子放学回来看上去很不开心的样子。我问，怎么了？他说，今天他在初中上数学课的时候，把他学校那边竞选学生会的活动给错过了。只能再等一年了。Wow，这个我是真没想到，他还想当领导。
