AS3 - when to implement or expand?

Here's another way of thinking about the problem - are there any differences at all between MathQuestion and WordQuestion? For me, it sounds like they are both objects of a Question, and you can distinguish between different types with composition .

Enum, , ( , ActionScript 3 Enums, .)

public class QuestionType {
    public static const MATH : QuestionType = new QuestionType("math");
    public static const WORLD : QuestionType = new QuestionType("world");

    private var _name : String;

    // Private constructor, do no instantiate new instances.
    public function QuestionType(name : String) {
        _name = name;
    }

    public function toString() : String {
        return _name;
    }
} 

QuestionType :

public class Question {
    private var _message : String /* Which country is Paris the capital of? */
    private var _answers : Vector.<Answer>; /* List of possible Answer objects */
    private var _correctAnswer : Answer; /* The expected Answer */
    private var _type : QuestionType; /* What type of question is this? */

    public function Question(message : String, 
                              answers : Vector.<Answer>, 
                              correctAnswer : Answer, 
                              type : QuestionType) {
        _message = message;
        _answers = answers.concat(); // defensive copy to avoid modification.
        _correctAnswer = correctAnswer;
        _type = type;
    }

    public function getType() : QuestionType {
        return _type;
    }
}

, (, Question) :

public class QuizView extends Sprite {
    public function displayQuestion(question : Question) : void {
        // Change the background to reflect the QuestionType.
        switch(question.type) {
            case QuestionType.WORLD:
                _backgroundClip.gotoAndStop("world_background");
                break;

            case QuestionType.MATH:
                _backgroundClip.gotoAndStop("math_background");
                break;
        }
    }
}
