五、段落原則
段落推斷原則考查考生對段落內(nèi)容的理解，分為兩類題型：段落首句推斷和段落中句子推斷。針對這兩種具體題型的原則為：先看首句，如與選項符合即可選擇，不必再浪費時間看完整個段落，如首句不能與選項吻合時再將整個段落讀完以尋找符合的選項。來源：www.examda.com

but it is hardly inevitable that companies on the web will need to resort to push strategies to make money. the examples of virtual vineyards， amazon.com， and other pioneers show that a web site selling the right kind of products with the right mix of interactivity， hospitality， and security will attract online customers. and the cost of computing power continues to free fall， which is a good sign for any enterprise setting up shop in silicon. people looking back 5 or 10 years from now may well wonder why so few companies took the online plunge.
we learn from the last paragraph that .
[a]pushing information on the web is essential to internet commerce

[c]leading companies began to take the online plunge decades ago
