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.
