I have twin brothers, Tim and Tom. They are very similar and a lot of people don’t
know which is which. They both have blond hair and blue eyes, and they always wear jeans
and T-shirts. They like doing the same things, too. For example, they both like jazz and
they’re crazy about football. They go to a football match once a week. Tim doesn’t like
dancing or discos and Tom doesn’t like them, either. Although they’re twins, they’re not
exactly the same at everything. Tim works hard at school because he wants to go to
university, but Tom is a bit lazy. Our mother is often away from home because of her job,
so we all work together in the house. Most of the time it’s fine, but sometimes we fight a
bit!
