They are the ones with a positive attitude. In contrast to this could be the people who are focusing on the negative aspects of everything. Such pessimists, the ones with a negative attitude, do not attract others in the same way. Having a positive attitude means getting on with the job on hand. It means neither brooding over what\u2019s gone before nor fearing too much about what might happen in the future. If there is a problem, positive thinkers quickly think of ways to solve it. Passing the buck, blaming other people or circumstances are excuses and alibis such positive people avoid. If such a positive thinker alone cannot solve a problem, he or she seeks help from competent people. To have a positive attitude means not to feel that it is below one\u2019s dignity to seek assistance. Of course, even the greatest optimist cannot smile all the time and feel good. The ups and downs of life cause everyone to feel a touch of melancholy now and then, when everything seems hopeless. But developing a positive attitude helps us bounce back from every challenge and difficult experience, ready to face whatever life brings. To get the best out of life, we owe it to ourselves to approach everything work, friendships and relationships, with a positive attitude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">1.A cheerful person, with a smiling face and behaving as if he or she is enjoying every moment, \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">(3)<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">(1) interacts with a group of people<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (2) wishes to attract others in the group<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (3) has an optimistic outlook towards life<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (4) focuses on the negative aspects of everything<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (5) None of the above<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">2.A person with a positive attitude avoids \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">(3)<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">(1) getting on with the job on hand<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (2) thinking of ways to solve a problem<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (3) blaming other people or circumstances for his or her failure<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (4) solving a problem alone<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (5) None of the above<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">3.A positive thinker seeks help from competent people when \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">(4)<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">(1) there are no excuses<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (2) he or she feels that it is below one\u2019s dignity to seek assistance<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (3) he or she gets on with the job on hand<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (4) he or she alone cannot solve a problem<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (5) None of the above<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4.When we approach everything in life with a positive attitude, \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">(1)<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">(1) we smile all the time and feel good<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (2) there are ups and downs in life<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (3) we get the best out of life<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (4) everything seems hopeless<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (5) None of the above<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">5.The word in the last paragraph of the passage meaning the same as \u2018sadness\u2019 is \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">(2)<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">(1) hopeless<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (2) melancholy<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (3) optimist<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (4) challenge<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> (5) None of the above<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Directions (Q. 1-5): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow by writing the option that you consider the most appropriate.
