Two elderly people are walking hand in hand down the street, resembling each other so strongly. Do these couples actually look alike, and if so, what's caused them to develop this way?
Q. In this paragraph, I think 'Do this couple acutally look alike...? instead of 'Do thes couples acutally look alike...?' is a right expression. What's your opinion? |

The writing is perhaps a little sloppy, but I think the author used the example of one old couple to indicate that there are lots of elderly couples who seem to resemble each other.
The writer could have improved it by writing it, "Do such couples actually look alike, . . . ."
