Tom is the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Lee. He was sent to study in London two years ago when he was eight. Mr. and Mrs. Lee did not go the UK with him. They were working in China. Tom has been staying with his aunt in London. During his first year in London, Tom was very shy to speak English. He did not have a lot of friends. He always wanted to go back to China. Mr. and Mrs. Lee were very worried about him. However, one year after that, Tom made a lot of friends at school and also with young neighbours around his aunt’s place. Tom started to enjoy living and studying in London. Now he is no longer a shy boy. He can speak English very well. Mr. and Mrs. Lee are no longer worried about him.
