正如上面两张曲线图所示，从1990年到1995年蛋类的平均价格不断上升，并且其需求量也相应增加。曲线图还表明，从1995年到2000年期间蛋类价格下降，而且需量也下降。这种现象是很奇怪的并值得研究。根据市场经济法则，需求量增加会引起价格上涨。也就是说，当价格上升时，需求就下降，而当价格回落时，需求就增加。但是现在的现实恰好相反。
产生这种奇怪的现象的原意是很明显的。从1990年到1995年期间随着我国社会主义市场经济的发展，人民的收入，其中包括工资、奖金和各种补贴迅速增加。虽然蛋类价格的需求量也急趋增加。另一方面，当蛋类的需求达到某一点时，需求量就停止上升，因为人们开始把越来越多的钱花在衣着、娱乐和国内外的旅游上。普遍认为，从1995年到2000年旅游开支占我国人民总消费量的很大一部分。因此，同期蛋类需求量的下降也似乎是合理的。
我的看法是， 由于家禽养殖业的不断发展，蛋类价格很可能下降，因为对蛋类的需求有限，消费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)
