Last holiday I went climbing Mount Lawu. It was my first time going on a mountain
hike. I do it with my friends.
We started climbing at 6 pm. It was a little foggy and we used our flashlights to find the
hiking trail. At first, I was so scared, but my friends motivated me not to worry they are
professional climbers. I just followed their instructions. I felt excited and tried my best to get to
the top of Mount Lawu.
We hiked slowly and enjoyed our climb there. After 6 hours of climbing the mountain,
we finally reached the top of the mountain. The clock shows 12 midnight. It turned out that there
were many people who had reached the top of the mountain before we came. Then we set up our
tents and rested. After that, while waiting for the sunrise we cooked food and made warm drinks
to restore our energy. We exchanged stories and got acquainted with new people there.
After enjoying the sunrise, we had to hurry home. Going down the mountain is not as
tiring as climbing. We just need a little energy and time but we have to do it carefully.
However, it was the most memorable experience I've had so far. The rest, the experience
was the greatest experience I've ever had.

Killer Whales
Have you ever heard of the killer whale? Did you know that killer whales live in
oceans all over the world? They are found mostly in the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, where
the water is cold. Killer whales can also be spotted on both shores of the United States. Killer
whales have been spotted in warmer waters such as the Bahamas and the Gulf of Mexico.
This just goes to show how adaptable the killer whale can be.
How do killer whales differ from other whales? One way is in their coloring. A killer
whale is striking in its coloring of black and white. This makes it easy to spot. Killer whales
have a sleek body form. They are smaller when compared to most whales. Killer whales are
typically 19–22 feet long and can weigh anywhere from 8,000 to 12,000 pounds.
Killer whales get their name for a reason. They are the top predators in the ocean.
Killer whales will eat almost any kind of sea animal including sea lions, fish, squid, seals,
walruses, birds, sea turtles, penguins, and otters. It’s been recorded that even a moose has been
found in the stomach of a killer whale. Killer whales are very agile and can move quickly
through the water. In fact, they are the fastest swimming marine mammals. This speed and
agility makes it easy for the killer whale to hunt. Often times, killer whales will hunt in groups.
This improves their chances of catching prey

4. a. What is the purpose of the text above?

b. How big can a killer whale be?

The following text is for question 5a and 5b
