One of the basic characteristics of capitalism is the private ownership of the major means of production—capital. The ownership of large amounts of capital can bring【1】profits, as well as economic and political power. Some recent theorists,【2】, have argued that our society has moved to a new stage of【3】that they call "postindustrial" society.

But this does not【9】the importance of knowledge in an advanced industrial society, as the【10】of some new industries indicates.【11】, genetic engineering and the new computer technology have【12】many new firms and made some scientists quite rich. In【13】with criticism of the postindustrial society thesis, however, it must also be【14】that those already in control of huge amounts of capital(i. e. , major corporations)soon【15】to take most profits in these industries based on new knowledge.

Illiteracy in English language has been a severe【19】for many years in the United States, but we are also moving to the point when computer illiteracy will hinder many more people and【20】them to a life of low-skill and low-paid labor.
