求助：224范文中的AA9讨论

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.”
Discuss how well reasoned... etc.

我要驳的点是：
1． 百分比不代表总数就多。
2． 下10年中年人的有很多是现在的年轻人变老了。如果现在要采取行动，也应该是attact现在的年轻人。
3． 10年后很多观念都变了，10年后的中年人不一定还钟情于department store。

我看了224范文上给出的3篇essay，似乎没有一篇提到我的观点2，难道是我理解错了？

望高人指点一下。。。

1.中年人首先就未必多

另外，replace的成本也许高于利润
