Hi, Ryota. Have you talked with our new colleague, Manabu?
Not yet, but I saw him this morning. He looks very professional, doesn’t he? What was his previous job?
Surprisingly, he just graduated from university this past March. After that, he did an international business training course in the US, and came back to Japan this month.
Really? He looks older than he actually is. Hopefully, he’ll bring some fresh ideas to our company.
I hope so, too. I’m really looking forward to working with him.
Me too.
For Deeper Understanding ～より深い理解へ～

Surprisingly は「驚くべきことに」。この単語が文頭に置かれているのは、以降の内容が驚くべきことであるのをあらかじめ指定（予告）しているからです。
