Lesson 383

Peter’s money was stolen. The police find his money in my pocket. This is the proof that I am the thief.
(proof / to prove)

Bath / Manchester / London / Oxford / Cambridge = cities in England

withdraw money from the bank = take out
collect money from the bank = get / receive

photography = photo

without further trouble = without any more trouble

4) The proof

A young lady spending her vacation in Bath went to a bank to withdraw some money that had been sent to her from the city in which she lived. The employee at the bank in Bath did not know her and said: "How can you prove that you really are the person who is supposed to receive this money?" The young lady looked worried for a few moments and replied, "I don't think I brought any proof with me." But then suddenly, she looked happy again. She opened her bag, took out a photography of herself, and showed it to the clerk. "Here's something," she said. The clerk looked closely at the photo and then again at the young lady. "Yes, that’s you," he said, and paid the money out to her without further difficulty.
