I have twin brothers, Tim and Tom. They look the same. They both have brown hair and blue eyes. They always wear the same jeans and T-shirts. So many people can’t tell them from each other.
They not only wear the same clothes but also do the same things. For example, they both like listening to pop music, watching soccer matches and playing computer games. They go to watch soccer matches every weekend. They like to play computer games every night, but our mother doesn’t allow(允许) them to because they have a lot of homework to do.
They are twins, but they are also different in some ways. For example, Tim works hard at school, and he always gets good grades. But Tom is much less hard—working than Tim is. Tom likes talent shows because he thinks they are relaxing, but Tim likes news, he wants to find out what’s going on around the world.
Our mother is often away from home because she travels a lot for her job, so I have to take care of （照顾）my twin brothers at home. But I think it is fun to have twin brothers.
