Bill Gates, the head of the world’s biggest computer software company, has a mission: "to put computers on every office desk and in every home." Bill Gates has had this mission since he was a university student years ago. This deep personal interest, together with his technical skill and his business marketing skills, helped him to create a giant computer company and to make him wealthy.
Although he is so wealthy, Bill Gates does not want to give up. He is still very interested in his vision and he travels the globe, from Beijing to London, making quick stops in cities to sell the new software products of his company.
The central vision of Bill Gates is the "information highway". This is a network of computers that will link every home, office and shopping mall in the future. This computer network system will have an effect on business, shopping and education. Bill Gates says that the main use of this new technology will be in communication. It will be a way to find people with common interests and to share opinions with them.
But is this communication by computer along the "information highway" really a good thing? Won’t we be sitting at home, only "socializing" with our computer? No, says Bill Gates. In fact, the computer network will let us choose our own intellectual direction. It will give us freedom.[18]It will also bring good to society, because it will allow for the spread of education. When more and more people receive education, the gap between rich and poor will be narrowed.
16. What helped Bill Gates to make such great achievement in IT industry?
17. What is typical of the "information highway"?
18. According to Bill Gates, what result will the "information highway" bring us?
选项
A、It will confine us to the four walls.

C、The rich will be even richer.
D、Education will be widely spread.
答案

解析
