Read the text below in order to answer questions 16 to 18.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Six months ago, such was the gloom about Latin America that investors and international finance officials were asking whether it would be Brazil, the region’s giant, or one of three or four of its neighbours, that would be next in line to follow Argentina into debt default. Now, that pessimism looks wildly overdone. Brazil has stepped back from the brink: its currency and its bonds have rallied strongly, after its new centerleft government committed itself to tight fiscal and monetary policies. With risks and sluggishness elsewhere in the world economy, money has trickled back into Latin America. Taken as a whole, the region should grow by at least 2% this year and 3.5% next year, according to the World Bank. Even Argentina, after a four-year slump, is growing again. So panic over – but not the debate about what has gone wrong.

In early June, the Brazilian government announced its decision to use open source software. The 3-year plan will replace Microsoft Windows’ operation systems with Linux in 80 percent of the computers in the ministries and state-owned companies.
The Brazilian government created the Implementation Chamber for the Free Software to oversee this project. It estimates that the country’s total public and private computing service payments reach roughly US$1.12 billion.
The Brazilian government has a 2003 IT (Information Technology) budget of about R$2 billion (approximately US$730 million). However, the new Presidential administration has been clear that it will reduce IT expenses this year while also focusing on digital inclusion initiatives for the general population.
