TOEFL Writing Exercise
I’m preparing myself for the TOEFL and I found
this writing exercise online.
I wrote my answer below; I would be very grateful if someone would correct it. Thanks!
The rapid decline of sea otters is probably
caused by pollution. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that other sea
mammals are in decline as well. However, some experts suggest that the environment
might be a cause for the decline. They suggest that ocean currents might have
created uneven concentrations of pollutants along the coast, however, in other
locations the otter population seems to be stable.
The other point of view suggests the predator
factor, specifically orcas also called killer whales. orcas prefer to hunt
other whales, but whales are disappearing due to being hunted by humans, so orcas
started eating smaller mammals like otters (or the other species mentioned in
the passage).
The locations that are more accessible to
orcas, are more likely to be hunted. This could explain why in some places the population
is stable, but not in others.
Marco I made corrections based on the original
text you wrote, there were some mistakes and you will see the corrections I made
from the original text. If you have any questions, please let me know, I’d be
