ECONOMIC ACTIVITY
Most people work in order to earn their living. They produce goods and
services. Goods are either produced on farms, like maize and milk, or in factories,
like cars and paper. Services are provided by such things as schools, hospitals and
shops. Some people provide goods, some provide services. Other people provide both
goods and services. For example, in the same garage, a man may buy a car or he may
buy some service which helps him to maintain his car. The work which people do is
called their economic activity. Economic activities make up the economic system.
The economic system is the sum-total of what people do and what they want. The
work which people undertake either provides what they need or provides them with
money. People buy essential commodities with money.
Notes:
the sum-total - общая сумма
