　　数字鸿沟

　　In recent years, although the majority of all countries especially the

　　post-industrial societies, have achieved preeminent(卓越的) progress thanks to the

　　widespread of personal computer and Internet, this trend also resulted in large

　　groups of poor, underprivileged(被剥夺基本权力的,穷困的,下层社会的) and

　　disadvantaged(贫穷的,处于不利地位的) people who lack in computer skills. Such groups have

　　limited access to the information age and are identified below the Digital

　　Divide. These people find it difficult to find a decent job, and many of them

　　are likely to turn to drugs and crimes. In a word, this tendency has created

　　many social problems, namely unemployment, cime, drug abuse, disparity(不一致, 不同,

　　不等) between the rich and the poor, and so on. I think the most important element

　　among them is crime.

　　The Digital Divide functions on two levels, namely the domestic level and

　　the international level. On the domestic level, when it comes to other negative

　　effects accompanied by the emergence of Digital Divide such as unemployment and

　　drug abuse, some people may adopt an inappropriate perspective that they are not

　　affected by these problems and show no interest in solving them. Regardless of

　　the political correctness of such opinions, the devastating effects of crimes

　　closely associate with all those in the society and allow of no neglect. If we

　　don't put this issue under scrutiny, our lives and properties will naturally

　　suffer great loss as a result and this issue virtually serves the function of a

　　trigger of dissatisfaction among the people. Furthemore, since the computer

　　skills are necessary in our routine jobs, those computer illiterate will be

　　disappointed to find they are not qualified to have an upper hand in the job

　　market. They have no choice but to commit crimes as a means of earning their

　　bread as well as revenging(报仇, 复仇, 替...报仇, 复仇)on the society.

　　On the international level, people in underdeveloped countries will lament

　　that their situation is worse than before since the advent of the personal

　　computer and Internet, whose original purpose is , ironically, to provide

　　convenience as well as efficiency to all human beings instead of causing social

　　and economical gaps between rich and poor countries. To make it worse, radicals

　　from some underdeveloped countries will attribute their plight to the

　　exploitation and oppression inflicted by developed countries aided by advanced

　　technology. Consequently, they are entitled to take an extreme form of crime,

　　namely terrorist attacks launched against Western contries, as they deserve the

　　punishment.

　　If the digital technology continues to develop at the expense of those

　　beneath the Digital Divide and the underdeveloped countries do not take an

　　active approach to the problems, even well educated computer literates in

　　developed countries will not enjoy their lives devoid of a sense of security. To

　　eliminate all crimes caused by the Digital Divide, all governments should

　　provide the underclass with educational and financial provision, which in turn

　　generates possible job opportunities. Meanwhile, developed countries should

　　provide unconditional economic, financial, technological aids for poor countries

　　to help them build infrastructure and purchase equipment so that they can take

　　advantage of current technology.
