【解析】

【文章大意】文章作者從自身的創(chuàng)業(yè)經(jīng)歷得出結(jié)論，即：立即行動(dòng)是開(kāi)始的最好方式，并且用三個(gè)理由來(lái)證明，分別是立即行動(dòng)優(yōu)于單純思考，開(kāi)始行動(dòng)優(yōu)于永遠(yuǎn)不行動(dòng)，開(kāi)始行動(dòng)優(yōu)于白日做夢(mèng)。

【1】B考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。作者從自身的創(chuàng)業(yè)經(jīng)歷得出結(jié)論一定要立即行動(dòng)，下面三點(diǎn)分別說(shuō)明為什么要立即行動(dòng)，此空起到承上啟下的作用，故選B。

【2】F考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。本段標(biāo)題是立即行動(dòng)優(yōu)于單純思考，開(kāi)頭從思考方面著手先說(shuō)明行動(dòng)之前思考的好處，隨后轉(zhuǎn)折說(shuō)明思考太多也有壞處，故選F。

【3】C考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)下文提到單純思考會(huì)使你像個(gè)雕像那樣哪也去不了，可知上文提到是單純思考只會(huì)使你保持不動(dòng)，故選C。

【4】D考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)段落小標(biāo)題“It's better than never taking action”可知應(yīng)是討論采取行動(dòng)，D選項(xiàng)中含有“Take action”故選D。

【5】A考查對(duì)上下文的理解和總結(jié)能力。根據(jù)下文中對(duì)夢(mèng)想的描述可知小標(biāo)題應(yīng)是夢(mèng)想和采取行動(dòng)的關(guān)系故選A。
