Story

A student must do his homework, writing a story about his family. As the boy was watching a program about animals, he inadvertently added fantastic facts, such as the number of a million people, and described special feature of relatives using phrases that inform about the different birds and animals. The writing, of course, turned out to be funny and ridiculous.
