The ownership of large amount of capital can bring【C1】______profits, as well as economic and political power. Some recent theorists,【C2】______, have argued that our society has moved to a new stage of【C3】______that they call "post-industrial" society. One important change in such a society is that the ownership of【C4】______amounts of capital is no longer the only or even the most important【C5】______of profits and influences; knowledge as well as【C6】______capital brings profits and influence.
There are many【C7】______with the thesis above, not the least of【C8】______is that wealthy capitalists can buy the experts and knowledge they need to keep their profits and influence. But this does not【C9】______the importance of knowledge in an advanced industrial society, as the【C10】______of some new industries indicates【C11】______, genetic engineering and the new computer technology have【C12】______many new firms and made some scientists quite rich. In【C13】______with criticism of the post-industrial society thesis, however, it must also be【C14】______that those already in control of huge amounts of capital(i. e. , major corporations)soon【C15】______to take most profits in these industries based on new knowledge.

Something like a class line is emerging centered around knowledge. Individuals who fall too far behind in the【C18】______of knowledge at a young age will find it almost impossible to catch up later, no matter how hard they try illiteracy in the English language has been a severe【C19】______for many years in the United States, but we are also moving to the point when computer illiteracy will hinder many more people and【C20】______them to a life of low-skill and low-paid labor.

选项
A、control
B、mastery
C、search
D、pursuit
