All the three passages have the common theme of electronic communications in the modern world. The first passage discusses how investment in the most modern telecommunications equipment will help the economic growth of developing countries by attracting foreign and domestic investment. These countries hope to leap over many of the normal stages of economic growth and also have an advantage over their competitors. Passage B outlines the benefits of the information superhighway, the Internet, but also points out some of the potential challenges which exist if the poor as well as the rich are to benefit. Passage C explores the biggest disadvantage of the information age: the ease of transfer of information about individuals and the resulting loss of privacy.
