Trang 8made and brought to them It also studies the way people and nations choose thethings they actually buy among the many things they want.
Economists (specialists in economics) define economics as the study ofhow goods and services get produced and how they are distributed By goodsand services, economists mean everything that can be brought and sold Byproduced, they mean the processing and making of goods and services Bydistributed, they mean goods and services are divided among the people
In all countries, the resources used to produce goods and services arescarce That is, no nation has enough farms, factories and workers to produceeverything that everyone would like
Money is also scarce Few people have enough money to buy everythingthey want when they want it Therefore, people everywhere most choose the bestpossible way to use their resources and money
Children may have to choose whether to spend their allowances on amotion picture or a Hamburger Storekeepers may have to choose whether totake a summer vacation or use their savings to buy more merchandise A nationmay have to choose whether to use tax money to build more submarines Ineconomic items, the children, the storekeepers, and the nation all musteconomize in order to satisfy their most important needs and wants This meansthey must try to use the resources they have to produce the things they mostwant
Economics is a study of mankind It tells us how man subsists, grows anddevelops in relation to the wealth available on Earth Relations made by persons
in the society which are in connection with material circumstances andeconomic

II Reading comprehension
Microeconomics is a branch of economics that analyzes the marketbehavior of individual consumers and firms in an attempt to understand thedecision-making process of firms and households It is concerned with theinteraction between individual buyers and sellers and the factors that influencethe choices made by buyers and sellers In particular, microeconomics focuses
on patterns of supply and demand and the determination of price and output inindividual markets (e.g coffee industry)
Microeconomic studies individual decisions about particular commodities,
it examines how these decisions and behaviors affect the supply and demand forgoods and services, which determines prices, and how prices, in turn, determinethe supply and demand of goods and services For example, we might study whyindividual households prefer cars to bicycles and how producers decide whether
to produce car or bicycles We can then aggregate the behavior of all thehouseholds and all the firms to discuss total car purchases and total carproduction
The field of microeconomics known as general equilibrium theory extendsthis approach to its logical conclusion It studies simultaneously every market forevery commodity From this, it is hoped that we can understand the completed
Trang 14pattern of consumption, production, and exchange in the whole economy at apoint in time.
Microeconomics also deals with the effects of national economic policies(such as changing taxation levels) on the before mentioned aspects of theeconomy
One of the goals of microeconomics is to analyze market mechanisms thatestablish relative prices amongst goods and services and allocation of limitedresources Microeconomics analyzes market failure, where markets fail toproduce efficient results, and describes the theoretical conditions needed forperfect competition
Answer the questions
1 Why does the microeconomics analyze the behavior of individual firms and consumers?

II Reading comprehension
Macroeconomics provides us with a bird’s eye view of country’seconomic landscape Instead of looking at behavior of individual business andconsumer – called microeconomics – the goal of macroeconomics is to look at
overall economic trends such as employment levels, economic growth,
balance of payments, and inflation The study of the world economy, for
example, is essentially a macroeconomics survey
Just as a speed of an engine is regulated by its supply of fuel,
macroeconomics is influenced mainly by monetary policy, which controls a nation’s money supply, and fiscal policy, which controls a government’s
revenue and spending Control over an economy is essentially the hands of
each country’s central banks and government, because they control the money
that provides the fuel to keep the economy running
Monetary policy, the control of nation’s money supply is managed byeach country’s central banks Germany’s Bundesbank, Britain’s bank of
England, and the bank of Japan all regulate their supplies with basically the same goals as the US Federal Reserve to promote economic growth and keep
inflation under control
Just as a driver uses the accelerator to speed up or slow down a vehicle,central bank controls the economy by decreasing the money supply By carefullyregulating the supply money to fuel economic growth, a central bank works to
keep economy from overheating or slowing down too quickly.
Monetary policy is essentially a guessing game There is no one statistic
to tell us how fact an economy is growing, and there is nothing that tells us how
quickly the economy will respond to changes that may take months or years to
implement Central banks try to keep one eye to employment, resulting fromeconomic slow down
The economy at large also can be controlled by regulating fiscal policy,government revenue and spending Although a country’s money supply iscontrolled by central banks, government spending also greatly influenced by acountry’s economic growth Just as a family’s economic health is influenced byparents’ earning and spending habits, a nation’s economic heath is influenced by
Trang 20government fiscal policies, such as taxation, spending and government
borrowing.
For better or for worse, the major economic influences in our daily lives,such as inflation and unemployment, are primarily the result of macroeconomicdecisions

IV Language focus
The passive
The passive is formed by using the verb be and the past participle For
example, the passive of present tense is formed with am/ is/ are + past
participle
We often use the passive form to focus on something that happens to someone, when we do not want to focus on the person who does the action
Example: About 85% of the world rubber is produced in the Far East
We can use passive with a modal verb and expression like
have to
Example: Stamps can be bought at any post office
Meals have to be prepared everyday

1 We can solve this problem
Trang 234 The government will influence the economic situation through its fiscal and budgetary policies.

II Reading comprehension
Trang 27Demand describes how price influences buyers’ behavior If a price of aspecific good or service increases, the quantity a buyer purchase will decrease Ifthe price decreases, the quantity a buyer purchase will increase
However, more than just price influences how much a buyer wishes topurchase In order to focus on the influence of price on a buyer, we must hold allthe other possible influences constant Economists call factors other than theprice of the shift factors of demand, or society’s income, prices of other goods,expectations, and tastes
Demand curve shows how the price influences on buyers In theterminology of economics, a price change causes a movement along a givendemand curve An increase in price will decrease the quantity demanded Wemust be able to illustrate on our model how influences other than price, call shiftfactors, affect decisions to buy On our demand model, we illustrate a change inone of these factors by a shift of the entire demand curve to the right or to theleft In the language of economics, if higher incomes cause the buyers ofspecific good to be willing and able to buy more at various prices, this event isexpressed as an increase in demand and is modeled as a shift of the demandcurve to the right If buyers are willing and able to buy less at all of the variousprices, there is a decrease in demand, and the demand curve shifts to the left
SUPPLY
The seller, just like the buyer, will be influenced by prices when decidinghow much to provide or produce But for the seller, as the price of a good orservice rises, the quantity supplied will increase As price decreases, the sellerwill produce less and the quantity supplied will decrease
Other forces besides price affect sellers’ willingness and ability to sell atvarious prices These forces are called shift factors and include changes in prices
of inputs, technology, taxes, and suppliers’ expectations These factors are heldconstant as we discuss how price influences the seller
In the language of economics, any changes in price will cause a change inquantity supplied On the graph this is shown as a movement along a givensupply curve However, our model must also illustrate how the shift factorsinfluence seller decision-making A change in one of these factors is said to
Trang 28cause a change in supply and is modeled as a shift of the entire curve Anincrease in the costs of producing a good would result in a decrease in supply.
We would model it by shifting the supply curve to the left
You need to be clear on the difference between an increase in supply and
an increase in quantity supplied An improvement in production technologywould cause an increase in supply An increase in price results in an increase inquantity supplied
Choose the best answer for each statement
