正如上面兩張曲線圖所示，從1990年到1995年蛋類的平均價(jià)格不斷上升，并且其需求量也相應(yīng)增加。曲線圖還表明，從1995年到2000年期間蛋類價(jià)格下降，而且需量也下降。這種現(xiàn)象是很奇怪的并值得研究。根據(jù)市場經(jīng)濟(jì)法則，需求量增加會(huì)引起價(jià)格上漲。也就是說，當(dāng)價(jià)格上升時(shí)，需求就下降，而當(dāng)價(jià)格回落時(shí)，需求就增加。但是現(xiàn)在的現(xiàn)實(shí)恰好相反。
產(chǎn)生這種奇怪的現(xiàn)象的原意是很明顯的。從1990年到1995年期間隨著我國社會(huì)主義市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展，人民的收入，其中包括工資、獎(jiǎng)金和各種補(bǔ)貼迅速增加。雖然蛋類價(jià)格的需求量也急趨增加。另一方面，當(dāng)?shù)邦惖男枨筮_(dá)到某一點(diǎn)時(shí)，需求量就停止上升，因?yàn)槿藗冮_始把越來越多的錢花在衣著、娛樂和國內(nèi)外的旅游上。普遍認(rèn)為，從1995年到2000年旅游開支占我國人民總消費(fèi)量的很大一部分。因此，同期蛋類需求量的下降也似乎是合理的。
我的看法是， 由于家禽養(yǎng)殖業(yè)的不斷發(fā)展，蛋類價(jià)格很可能下降，因?yàn)閷?duì)蛋類的需求有限，消費(fèi)量的下降也是必然的。
As is shown by the two graphs above, the average price of eggs was on the rise from 1990 to 1995 and the demand for them increased correspondingly. The graphs also indicate that during the period from 1995 to 2000 the price eggs declined, and so did the demand. The phenomenon is quite strange and worth studying. According to the law of market economy, the increase in demand results in higher prices. That is to say, when prices climb, the demand decreases, and when prices fall, the demand grows. Now the reality was just the other way round.
The reasons for this strange phenomenon are obvious. During the period from 1990 to 1995 with the development of our socialist market economy people’s income, bonus and different kinds of benefits, increased rapidly. Though the price of eggs rose gradually, the demand for them grew sharply, too. On the other hand, when the demand for eggs reached a certain point, it stopped rising because people began to spend more and more money on clothing, recreations and tours round the country and even round the world. It is generally assumed that the expenses for tours accounted for a great part of the total consumption of the people in our country from 1995 to 2000. As a result, it seemed reasonable that the demand for eggs declined during the same period of time.
As far as I’m concerned, with the domestic poultry farming continuing to develop, the price of eggs is likely to decline because the demand for them is limited and the fall in consumption of them is also inevitable. (270 words)
