My name is Tom. I like shopping very much, but I never go shopping on weekends. There are too many people in shop. I don’t like shopping with other people. It usually takes me much time to buy things because I never buy the first thing I see. I always look around other shops to find the same thing cheaper. I’m good at finding cheap things. I don’t like buying food in small shops or street markets. I think food in the supermarket is fresh and cheap.

Their teacher, Mrs. Green, says to the pupils. Please write a composition (作文) 'My Mother'.
