Questions 1~4 refer to the following memo.

From: Erica Fulton, Operations Assistant
To: Sales Department Employees
Subject: August Sales
Date: September 7

This is Erica Fulton from the vice president's office. I would like to congratulate everyone in the sales department for making August our best month yet this year. We sold a record number of one-bedroom homes last month, which helped bring our total sales to $4,845,860! In fact, over $2.5 million of this came from sales of one-bedroom homes alone. As you know, sales of one-bedroom homes for the previous month came to just $1.8 million, and our total sales added up to $4.3 million. From this comparison you can see why we're so delighted with the results from August!

This achievement is particularly remarkable considering thecurrent downturn in the housing market. Many of our competitors have had to cut their staffs and scale back operations. Our numbers, on the other hand, remain strong.

Cheryl Sealey, our CEO, has noticed the tremendous contributions of the sales department and would like the opportunity to personally thank each and every one of you. This Friday at 3 p.m., there will be a reception in the cafeteria with Ms. Sealey. Refreshments will be provided. All members of the sales department are invited to attend.

Congratulations again on your excellent performance last month. Let's keep up the good work!

한국나이, 만 나이

	수진씨, 저랑 똑같은 1984년생 아녜요? Su-jin, you were born in 1984, the same year as me, weren't you?

	둘 다 스무 살인데 왜 수진씨는 21살이라고 하는 거죠? So why do you say you're 21 when we're both 20?

	그러니까 실제로 저보다 한 살 많은 게 아니잖아요. I mean, you're not a year older than I am, actually.
