In England the countryside changed even more than the towns in the 18th century. Most farming at the beginning of the century was still done as it had been for centuries. Each village stood in the middle of three or four large fields, and the villagers together decided what to grow, although individuals continued to work on their own small strips of land. During the 18th century most of this land was enclosed. The enclosed land was not used for sheep farming, as it had been in Tudor times, but for mixed animal and cereal farms. People with money and influence persuaded their MP* to pass a law through Parliament allowing them to take over common land and to enclose it.
MP* (Member of Parliament) - член парламента

The Mixed Economy
Most economists would say that there are no examples in the world today of a completely free market or a completely controlled economy. Instead, every country operates a mixture of the two systems.
Economies mix government control and free market values in different ways. One way is to let privately owned businesses exist alongside state-run industries. The economy becomes divided between the state sector and the private sector. The state sector often includes industries that the government thinks are important and need protection from the risks of the free market. These could include public transport, hospitals, schools and the postal service. The state sector can also include large industries that are important for a country’s economic health, such as oil, steel or agriculture. These are sometimes called primary industries* because they provide basic materials to manufacturers.
These state sector industries use money that the government collects in taxes. Often, they do not need to compete with other companies because no other company is allowed to provide the same product or service. However, many countries have recently started a process called deregulation.
Deregulation means freeing up the economy to allow private businesses to compete with state-run industries. The state sector should then run more efficiently in order to compete in the free market and because it now has less government protection.
Primary industry* - а) добывающая промышленность; б) базовые отрасли (угледобывающая, лесная, сельское хозяйство и т.п.)
