Questions 1-5 refer to the following notice and email.
Attention shoppers!
Following a routine engineering safety inspection, experts recommended that we have the ceiling in the Kindle Street parking lot reinforced. As a result, this lot will be closed for renovation from the 13th to the 15th of this month. It will reopen again on the 16th. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes.
On the affected days you will need to use either our mainparking lot or the nearby Nelson public lot. For those of you who don't know, Nelson Street is on the other side of McLean Park, and the public lot is next to Kennedy Sports Center. We have made arrangements with the management at Nelson that will allow us to validate tickets for that lot.
Hello, I visited your department store this morning to do some shopping. Your main parking area was full, and your Kindle Street lot was under maintenance, so I had to park at the public lot on Nelson Street. This was a little inconvenient as the walk from Nelson Street is uphill. However, I understand the situation and the safety concerns involved.
I was very disappointed, though, when I had so much trouble getting my parking ticket validated at your store. The clerk who served me claimed that she was not authorized to handle tickets for the Nelson public lot. She told me I had to go to the information desk. Then, in turn, the person at the information desk directed me to the cashier's office on the third floor. I finally got the ticket validated there.
The process was very confusing and complicated. I realize that today is the first day your employees have had to handle parking validation for the Nelson lot, but please make sure your staff is fully aware of your procedures in the future.
Yours, Max Verlaine

오늘날 환경 위기의 원인
Nothing "goes away"; it is simply transferred from place to place, converted from one molecular form to another, acting on the life processes of any organism in which it becomes, for a time, lodged. One of the chief reasons for the present environmental crisis is that great amounts of material have been extracted from the earth, converted into new forms, and discharge into the environment without taking into account that "everything has to go somewhere."
살얼음판(을 걷다) (walk on) thin ice
[강사 : Gwen Lee] - 미시시피 주립대, Oxford, Mississippi, U.S. - (現) 이티하우스 토익스피킹 과목 담당 살얼음판(을 걷다) (walk on) thin ice
A : 요새 저는 하루하루가 살얼음판을 걷는 것 같아요. I feel like I'm walking on thin ice day after day.
B : 무슨 걱정 있으세요? Is something bothering you?
A : 퇴직 연령이 점점 낮아지고 있는데다, 회사가 경영난 때문에 구조조정을 할 거라는 소문이 돌고 있거든요. The retirement age is getting lower, and with the financial problems, there's also a rumor going around that the company is restructuring.
실제로 명예퇴직을 한 동료들도 있어요. I actually have colleagues who have opted for early retirement.
[쇼핑/재래시장] 노점상 단속
방금 경찰관과 노점상 간에 실랑이하는 걸 봤는데 심각해 보이더군요. I just saw an altercation between a police officer and some street merchants that looked serious.
가끔 일어나는 일인데, 원래 노점상이 불법이거든요. It happens sometimes, because technically, street stalls are illegal.
거리 미관상 단속을 하는 게 경찰의 임무니까요. So the police check to make sure the merchants don't clutter up the streets too much.
