smith sensei:: in today's english class, we'll be talking about the average american. to begin with, the average u.s. citizen is a married woman age 32. that's because about 51.2% of the population are women and 32 is the median age.
yamada: interesting. and how many children does the "average" woman have?
smith sensei: she has 2.1 children.
yamada: how do you get the "point one"?
smith sensei: very funny.
yamada: just kidding. so how tall is the average woman?
smith sensei: she is 5 feet 4 inches. i don't know what that is in centimeters.
yamada: that's okay. i can figure it out. so what else can you tell me about the average american "woman"?
smith sensei: she is slightly overweight, about 143 pounds and dieting. her dress size is size 10 or 12.
yamada: wow! that sure isn't the median size in japan. japanese women are much smaller!
smith sensei: yes, but as japan adopts the american lifestyle, dress sizes will begin to increase in japan as well.
yamada: how true. so, keep going. tell us more . how about religion?
smith sensei: she doesn't go to church on sunday, but she believes in god.
yamada: how about money?
smith sensei: she makes less than $20,000 a year from her white collar job. she lives in the state where she was born and spends a third of her income on housing.
yamada: does she ever move?
smith sensei: yes, as a matter of fact. she'll move an average of 11 times in her life. but nearly all her moves will be within her home state.
yamada: tell us some personal information

yamada: how about crime?

smith sensei: she'll be a victim of crime an average of 3 times in her life.
yamada: how about love and marriage?
