Miss Simmons age

Miss Simmons agreed to be interviewed by Alec for the school magazine.

"How old are you Miss Simmons?" asked Alec.

"I'm not going to tell you that."

"But Mr. Hill the technical teacher and Mr. Hill the geography teacher teacher told me how old they were."

"Oh, well," said Miss Simmons. "I'm the same age as both of them."

The poor teacher was not happy when she saw what Alec wrote:

"Miss Simmons, our English teacher, confided¹ in me that she was as old as the Hills."
