A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so-called digital divide—the division of the world into the info(information)rich and the info poor. And that【C1】______does exist today. My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago. What was less【C2】______then, however, were the new, positive【C3】______that work against the digital divide. 【C4】______, there are reasons to be【C5】______.
There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more【C6】______, it is in the interest of business to universalize access—after all, the more people online, the more potential【C7】______there are. More and more【C8】______, afraid their countries will be left【C9】______, want to spread Internet access. Within the next decade or two, one to two billion people on the planet will be【C10】______together. As a result, I now believe the digital divide will【C11】______rather than widen in the years ahead. And that is very good news because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for【C12】______world poverty that we’ve ever had.
Of course, the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to【C13】______poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has【C14】______potential.
To【C15】______advantage of this tool, some poor countries will have to get over their outdated anti-colonial prejudices【C16】______respect to foreign investment. Countries that still think foreign investment is a/an【C17】______of their sovereignty might well study the history of 【C18】______ (the basic structural foundations of a society)in the United States. When the United States built its industrial infrastructure, it didn’t have the capital to do so. And that is【C19】______America’s Second Wave infrastructure—【C20】______roads, harbors, highways, ports and so on—were built with foreign investment.
【C5】
