Learning check

1. Gaon tuition 60,000; Nuri total 70,000. Gaon’s textbook details are initially missing.

Answer: Gaon’s total still needs confirmation.

Separate tuition from the all-required-cost total.

  • Gaon’s total is definitely 60,000. — Textbook inclusion is unknown.
  • Nuri is free. — 70,000 is stated.

2. Staff confirms Gaon textbook 20,000 extra; total 80,000. Budget 70,000.

Answer: 가온반은 예산을 넘어요.

The confirmed total is above the budget.

  • 가온반은 예산과 같아요. — 80,000 and 70,000 differ.
  • 가온반은 5만 원이에요. — That figure is not in the data.

3. Nuri: Saturday 2 p.m., total 70,000 including materials. Jun can attend then and has 70,000.

Final fee and time both fit.

  • 누리반은 예산을 넘어요. — The cap includes that value.

4. Which explains a reconsidered choice?

  • 그냥 아무거나 선택해요. — It gives no comparative reason.
  • 처음 가격만 보면 언제나 맞아요. — New information can change the judgment.

5. When new information arrives, what should still be checked?

Answer: The original time and budget constraints

Compare updated data with the same requirements.

  • Only that somebody else selected it — Their conditions may differ.
  • Whether it is the first row — Row position does not establish fit.

6. After saying you will choose Nuri, what is not established?

Answer: Enrollment and payment are complete.

An expressed choice is not an actual transaction.

  • Alternatives were compared. — The exercise included comparison.
  • A choice was expressed. — The statement does express a choice.
