选项 A、Provided that
B、In that
C、Now that
D、Given that
答案C
解析 语篇连贯。Provided that与Given that均表达假设，如：Given that I am healthy，I will take the task(如果身体健康的话，我就承担这项任务)；In that也表达因果关系，表示某一方面的原因，多用于句中，如：China is different from America in that China has a long history (中国不同于美国，因为中国历史悠久)。根据语篇，由于因特网的私有化，才导致了几个公司之间的竞争，因此选Now that表达因果关系，如：Now that the rain has stopped，we can go out (雨停了，我们可以出去了)。
