2 Economics is identified as a compulsory basic theoretical course. This course is the core basic course of business English major, which plays a connecting role in the professional curriculum system. There are many contents and difficulties for studying. Its basic contents include: microeconomics and macroeconomics. Microeconomics includes a wide range of contents, for example, average and balanced price theory, consumer behavior theory, producer behavior theory (including production theory, cost theory and market equilibrium theory), distribution theory, general equilibrium theory and welfare economics, market failure and microeconomic policies. Macroeconomics, taking the activities in the general process of national economy as the research object, mainly investigates the total employment level, gross national income and other economic aggregates. Therefore, macroeconomics is also called employment theory or income theory. Macroeconomics studies the utilization of economic resources, including national income determination theory, employment theory, inflation theory, economic cycle theory, economic growth theory, fiscal and monetary policies. Learning economics helps students understand how the world in which they live works. Learning economics helps to understand the advantages and disadvantages of government policies; Studying economics can improve your way of thinking. This knowledge plays a decisive role in students' future career planning and improvement of their quality of life. Economics, the social science that solves resource allocation and resource utilization, is closely related to people's lives. Its basic concepts and principles have a leading role in the formation and development of human values. When teaching Economics, we always adhere to the concept of integrating theory with practice and guide students to think about life with economic thinking. Every knowledge point of economics can be a tool for us to observe life, analyze society, and interpret life. It is necessary to integrate economic theory and knowledge into ideological and political education into a teaching activity. Class cases originate from Chinese business but are closely related to knowledge points. In particular, we often cite local economic business to bring students a sense of intimacy in economics. 三、课程性质与教学目的 （一）性质：经济学原理是经济学科中的一门基础学科。它是经济学、财经、 管理类各专业普遍开设的基础理论课程。在商务英语学习中，经济学原理处于基 础的地位，为商务英语学生准备经济学科方面的基础知识，为他们以后学习各专 业的专业基础课程和专业课程打下良好的基础。 （二）课程目1：理解和掌握有关微观经济学的基本概念、基本理论和基本 分析方法，了解微观经济学的基本架构和分析逻辑； 课程目标 2：能够运用经济学原理观察、分析和解释现实生活中比较简单和 典型的经济现象和问题；
