Developed and developing countries witnessed different rates of growth in mobile-phone subscription from 2000 to 2008. As the bar graph shows, the number of mobile-phone sub-scribers in developed countries rose steadily(穩步增長)from 0.7 billion in 2000 to one billion in 2008. By stark contrast(突出對比), cell phone users in developing countries soared from 0.4 billion to 4 billion in the same period.
What accounts for this disparity(差距,不同)? The answer involves two factors. The first reason is technology gap. Developed countries generally enjoy advanced technology, which enables them to popularize mobile phone ahead of developing countries. Another contributing factor is the difference in population size. As we know, developed countries usually have a small population but most developing countries a large. As the price of the mobile phone slides(下滑), more and more people in developing countries avail themselves of(利用)this service, which explains the substantial increase(大幅增長)in mobile-phone subscription in these countries since 2003.
From the case of mobile-phone subscription, we see that developing countries are quickly catching up(趕追)in science and technology, which is believed to be conducive to closing the gap between developing and developed countries.

2000年到2008年間,在發達國家以及發展中國家手機用戶有了不同程度的增長。如圖所示,在發達國家2000年移動手機用戶為7億,之后穩步增長,2008年到了10億。相比之下,同期在發展中國家手機用戶量從4億直線上升到了40億。
怎樣來解釋這種差異?答案有兩點:第一個原因是技術差距。發達國家通常享有先進技術,這就使得手機的普遍性要超過發展中國家。另一個影響因素是人口數量的不同。眾所周知,發達國家通常人口數量少,而發展中國家大部分人口數量龐大。隨著手機價格的下滑,發展中國家越來越多的人得益于這種服務。這也就解釋了自2003年這些國家的手機用戶大幅度提高的原因。
從手機用戶的例子來看,發展中國家在科技領域快速趕追,我們堅信這對縮小發達國家與發展中國家的差距是有益的。
