Answer:

Jerry is most likely in a different country.

Step-by-step explanation:

That phrase tells the reader that Jerry is in a foreign country. Jerry is French that is the reason why when he meets some boys speaking English he does not understand them. By using the words "English Boy" the writer emphasizes the fact that he changes from being a French boy in England to being an English boy.
