COLLECTING YOUR INHERITANCE
I. NOTE
Although we do not know the exact amount the nephew received from his
aunt's inheritance, it is clear that it is a substantial sum. For instance, the attorney
mentions that the nephew will be able to return to the US as often as he likes.
Knowing the large credit card bills that he has incurred during his stay in the
United States, he is somewhat consoled. He is also an idealist, pleased that he learned
so much about the US and the English language. The money that he will receive is a
small reward compared to the joys of having experienced American culture first hand.
That's all, folks!
II. DIALOGUE
Mr. Young: Well, how did your trip go?
You: It was great. I had no idea the U.S. was so large. I thought I would never get
back to Atlanta.
Mr. Young: Did you follow your aunt’s instructions?
You: I think so. Here are my receipts and the other items she wanted me to collect. I
think everything is in order.
(Mr. Young examines what you gave him.)
Mr. Young: Yes, I believe you have satisfied the conditions in your aunt’s will.
Here’s your check. You can deposit it once you get home, if you want.
You: Thanks, I think I’ll do that. I’ll have a lot of credit card bills waiting for me.
Mr. Young: One thing is for sure. Your English has really improved since you
arrived.
You: You’re kind. I think it has, too. I wonder how I’ll keep it up.
Mr. Young: With the money from your inheritance, you’ll be able to come back to
the U.S. as often as you like. Have a safe trip home!
