same composition

Jean and Mark were twins. They were ten years old, and they were in the same class at their school. A few weeks ago, their English teacher said to the children, 'I haven't given you any homework for two weeks, children. Now this week, write a composition about "Our cat", and give it to me next Monday. Have you all got a cat at home?'

'Yes, Miss Jones,' all of them answered.

All the pupils did the composition, and they gave it to the teacher on Monday. The teacher read all the compositions and then she gave them back to the pupils on Tuesday.

'Jean,' she said, 'your composition is the same as your brother's.'

'Yes,' answered Jean quickly. 'It's the same cat!'
