The story is called Whales: Giants In Danger by Andre Admas.
How does the author develop the idea that Whales are enormous?
Answer:
The mechanisms used to produce sound vary from one family of cetaceans to another. Marine mammals, such as whales, dolphins, and porpoises, are much more dependent on sound for communication and sensation than are land mammals, because other senses are of limited effectiveness in water. Sight is less effective for marine mammals because of the particulate way in which the ocean scatters light. Smell is also limited, as molecules diffuse more slowly in water than in air, which makes smelling less effective. However, the speed of sound is roughly four times greater in water than in the atmosphere at sea level. As sea mammals are so dependent on hearing to communicate and feed, environmentalists and cetologists are concerned that they are being harmed by the increased ambient noise in the world's oceans caused by ships, sonar and marine seismic surveys.[2]

Answer:
Dale, a local senior at Sunnyside Seniors (a retirement home) took his first step out of his room from his sleep, after putting on his hearing-aids, he stretched then immediately walked to the room next to him and slammed on the door. Finally his best friend John opened the door. John was a tall, skinny, wrinkly guy with thin white and gray hairs laid on his head, while (still wrinkly) Dale was a small chubby bald man with a big nose. But John and Dale were no ordinary seniors, they were Super Seniors! With John having super speed, and Dale flight they were a not-so unbeatable team. John was complaining about how bad the bed was and how early the workers made them get up, but Dale couldn't hear him even though he had put his hearing-aid in. After John stopped yapping Dale finally said “Huh”. “ Did you hear anything I said?” said John. “I can't hear you, what did you say?” said Dale back. Then John
Grabbed him by the earlobe and yelled “CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!”. “ Oh, Yeah” said Dale.
John took Dale hearing-aid out and looked at it. Then again screamed in Dale's ear “ THERE'S NO BATTERIES IN HERE.”
“Well then where'd they go?” Dale said.
“I don't know why, do you think I would know?”
“I dont know.”
“Well then we'll have to get you some new ones” Dale said.
They both walked out of Sunnyside Seniors without anyone seeing.
As they waited for the bus something else waited for them in the bushes.
A villain named Villain much younger than Dale and John and with extremely bad timing popped out of the bushes just as they were boarding the bus. You see Villain had fought against Dale and John before but was defeated time and time again. But Villain would not take defeat from two old guys so he kept coming back. Villain set bombs underneath the road where the bus that Dale and John had got onto. Villain pushed the button and off the bombs went but missed entirely. “Did you hear something?” said John Loud enough so that Dale could hear. John dragged Dale out of the bus and saw Villain the Villain yelling and stomping his feet.
“YOU!” shouted Villain at the two old men one half asleep. Dale woke up John and the two seniors ripped their clothes off to reveal their super suits, well tried anyway, Both of them being too weak to rip their clothes off just took them off. John of course faster than Dale (because you know, super speed).
John's super suit was a blue unitard with red underwear and a red cape. Dales was the same except his unitard was red with blue underwear and cape.
“HOW DO YOU TWO KEEP AVOIDING MY ATTACKS YOU’RE OLDER THAT MY GRANDPA!”
“What did he say?” said Dale.
“I think he called us tater tots!” Said John.
“Huh?” said Dale.
“WOULD YOU TWO STOP BABBLING”
Villain then Blasted them with is Super Mega Soaker 200 (his own invention)
Dale and John then skid down the road soaking wet. Dale and John got up and made a plan. While John ran and got Villain’s attention. Dale flew up behind him, tied his cape around him and took him down. The two old men met back up and high fived. They turned around to take Villan to the local police station but he was gone!
“Dang nabbit, look Dale he got away!”
“Huh?”
“Oh right, them hearing aids.”
John and Dale bought the hearing aids and went back to Sunnyside. One of the workers saw them entering the building and said “YOU WERE GONE?”
“Yup” said Dale.
“Oh no, how long have you too been gone! My boss is going to be so mad!”
