The Law of Supply and Demand
If trade is to take place, at least two economic units must be involved (business, households, tradesmen, etc. ): One must have something to sell and the other must desire the product of the seller. These two economic units meet or communicate through what is called a "market". Markets can be physical places such as the farmers' market in large cities, the commodity markets in Chicago, or the stock exchanges of New York City. They can also be nothing more than a "happening" where buyer and seller never meet but may communicate halfway around the world by telephone, radio, etc. We will view a market as being some combination of buyers (demanders) and sellers (suppliers), which deals with a definable commodity. Notice, we have already split the concept of market into two subgroups -- demanders and suppliers. To see how markets operate, we will first develop tile demand and supply ideas separately; then we will combine them.
Price of the Demanded Goods
Every one of you is familiar with the concept of demand, although you may not be aware of the fact. To analyze demand, we merely look at all the things that affect people's desires for goods and services. What are some of these things? If we talking about economic goods it is implied that to get a piece of goods, something else (such as money or some other goods) must be given up. The amount that must be given up per unit of the desired goods is the price of the desired goods -- $ 8.00 per book or I shirt per book. Thus it can be said that the quantity demanded of some goods depends partly on the price of that goods.
Prices of Substitute and Complementary Goods
Many goods are consumed or used either instead of or along with some other goods. In other words, there may be substitutes for or complements to some god&. Examples of substitutes include butter and margarine(人造黄油). automobile transportation and airline transportation, university training and technical school training. Notice, a substitute docs not have to be the same goods, and in fact, substitute implies that it may nit have to be the same goods. Nickels and dimes, in the proper portions, are perfect substitutes in most cases, but they are very imperfect if one has only nickels, the coffce machine takes only dimes, and nobody's around to make change. Complements are found in such items as tires and automobile, sails and sailboats, etc. As you may have guessed, the prices of these related goods will undoubtedly affect the quantity demanded of the desired goods in question. Much as I dislike margarine (and I can tell the difference), if the price of butter goes much higher (relative to margarine), I can assure you, margarine will be much more acceptable to me. Notice, as the price of a given goods becomes higher in relation to its substitute (or the price of substitute becomes lower), the quantity demanded of the given goods will decrease. The converse is true for complementary goods. If the price of automobiles increases substantially my demand for automobile tires will decrease, since I will be buying fewer automobiles on which to use the tires. While the example may not be very important for me as individual buyer of automobiles, it is very important if one looks at the total market including all buyers of automobiles and automobile tires.
The Income of Potential Buyers
A third item that can affect the quantity demanded of goods is the income of the buyer or buyers. At first thought, one would think that people with high incomes would demand more goods than those with low incomes. For some goods (economists call them "normal or superior" goods), this is true for example, the quantity demanded of Rolls Royce automobiles. But for other goods ("inferior" goods) such as pork and beans, the opposite is true. For the latter category, increasing incomes give people the choice of selecting more expensive foods, such as

M: Well, there's good news for buyers. Prices won't increase. In fact, they'll fall slightly. There are different reasons for this. One is that it won't be so easy to borrow money. A second reason is that there are still a lot of empty new houses on the market.
W: I see. And what about food prices? Will they fall too?
M: I'm afraid not. You see, inflation will increase, so consumer prices will rise too. I think we can expect a 3% rise in prices.
W: Some economists say that unemployment will rise. Are you one of these people?
M: No, I'm not. I think it'll decrease. Trade with other countries has improved dramatically over the past year. And the increase in demand for goods means that there will be more jobs.
W: Well, if unemployment falls, can we expect wages to fall too?
M: No, no. The average wage will increase. Not very much, I'm afraid, but there will be a slight increase.
W: One financial question, Mr. Green. What will happen to petrol prices? Will they increase or decrease next year?
M: That's a very difficult question to answer because we don't know what'll happen in the oil producing countries. I have a feeling that prices will go down. However, I could be wrong!
W: Mr. Green, thank you very much for your time.
M: My pleasure.

And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a guarantee of reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Apart from the fact that twenty-seven Acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for long, for mercifully the public has the good sense not to by the inferior article more than once. If you see an article consistently advised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that it represents good value.
Advertising does more for the material benefit of the community than any other force I can think of.
There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on. Recently I heard a well-known television personality declare that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs. He was drawing excessively fine distinctions. Of course advertising seeks to persuade.
If its message were confined merely to information—and that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve, for even a detail such as the choice of the color of a shirt is subtly persuasive—advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention. But perhaps that is what the well-known television personality wants.
By the first sentence of the passage the author means that______.
A.he is firmly familiar with the cost of advertising
B.everybody know well that advertising is money consuming
C.advertising costs money like everything else
D.it is worthwhile to spend money on advertising
The authorities who require one to fill up forms frequently demand answers to questions that one would hesitate to put to one's intimate friends. The worst of it is that, when faced with such questions, my mind goes blank and I can hardly remember my own date of birth, let alone my nationality. Have I ever suffered from a serious illness? Have I7 What do they mean by ' serious' 7 I had my tonsils out in hospital when I was eight, and my mother always assured me I was ' delicate' , but father contended I was born lazy. Do I suffer from any personal defects? Well, I wear contact lenses and my upper teeth are not my own, but perhaps the word ' defects' applies to my character. Am I supposed to admit that I like gambling, and find it difficult to get up in the morning? Both of which are true.
Of all, I think job applications are the worst. ' Education--previous experience--posts held-- give dates... ' Terrified by the awful warning about giving false declarations which appears at the bottom of the form, I struggle to remember what exams I passed and how long I worked for what firms.
