　　19. V1 by cindy882AA---题目先说middle-aged人用花费的百分之39在的partment stores 里，相对younger consumers 只有百分之21。如果要提高retail sales， department store 要提供更多可以attact middle-aged的产品。 同时，中年人口的数量也会激增。 department stores 可以预计有较大的sales。

　　V2. By heavenwsj1 一个城市现在中年人花39%的钱在department store里，年轻人花25%在department store里，这个作者推断十年后中年人会变多所以会有sales increase并且推荐store managers把年轻人喜欢的商品换成中年人喜欢的商品来增加销售额

　　V3 by 独品啦啦AA：说department store products 有39%中年消费者消费，但是只有27% younger consumers。还说next decade the number of middle-aged consumers will increase dramatically. 结论是厂家应该replace products that attract younger consumers with products that attract middle-aged consumers.

　　V4 by kicksmile 目前調查middle age 39% 年輕人29% 會在百貨公司買東西. Middle age的人未來會增加 因為老化. 所以建議百貨公司開始替換middle age喜歡的商品 取代年輕人的商品 來迎接未來middle age的市場 increase benit

　　考古：

　　原题：No. 9 The following appeared in the opinion column of a financial magazine.

　　“On average, middle-aged consumers devote 39 percent of their retail expenditure to department store products and services, while for younger consumers the average is only 25 percent. Since the number of middle-aged people will increase dramatically within the next decade, department stores can expect retail sales to increase significantly during that period. Furthermore, to take advantage of the trend, these stores should begin to replace some of those products intended to attract the younger consumer with products intended to attract the middle-aged consumer.”

　　思路：

　　l The absolute value of consumption should be given by the author.

　　l all things are equal

　　l Whether the increase of profit gained by attracting more middle-aged consumers will be offset

　　l by the reduction of profit because of the loss of young consumers.

　　范文：

　　Sample essay 1:

　　The argument that department retail sales will increase in the next 10 years and thus department stores should begin to replace products to attract middle-aged consumers is not entirely logically convincing, since it omits certain crucial assumptions

　　First of all, the argument ignores the absolute amount of retail expenditure of middle-aged and younger consumers devoted to department store products and services. Although younger consumers spend a smaller percentage of their retail expenditure to department store products than do the middle-aged consumers, they might actually spend more in terms of the absolute amount.

　　Even if middle-aged consumers are spending more than younger ones in department stores, the argument ignores the possibility that the trend may change within the next decade. Younger consumers might prer to shop in department stores than in other types of stores, and middle-aged consumers might turn to other types of stores, too. This will lead to a higher expenditure of younger consumers in department stores than that of middle-aged consumers.

　　Besides, the argument never addresses the population difference between middle-aged consumers and younger ones. Suppose there are more younger consumers than the middle-aged ones now, the total population base of younger consumers will be bigger than that of the middle-aged ones if both of them grow at the same rate in the next decade. Thus there will be a bigger younger consumer base.

　　Based on the reasons I listed above, the argument is not completely sound. The evidence in support of the conclusion does little to prove the conclusion since it does not address the assumptions I have already raised. Ultimately, the argument might have been more convincing by making it clear that the absolute population of middle-aged consumers are higher than that of the younger consumers and the number will continue to grow in the next decade, and that the middle-aged consumers will continue to spend more money in department stores than younger consumers do in the next decade.
