Read the following paragraph:
"Humans have a natural tendency to focus on the negative: studies show our brains react to and remember unpleasant experiences
about five times more strongly than pleasant ones. This may have helped our ancestors survive in the wild when they were constantly
surrounded by dangers, but these days it can lead to depression rather than safety. Psychologists say that we can overcome this instinct by
deliberately choosing to celebrate small occasions and successes. The practice, they say, has a number of benefits. In the short term,
smiling and laughing release chemicals that improve mood and feelings of well-being. Over time, learning to focus on the positive
develops skills for maintaining self-esteem and increases overall happiness. It can even lead to the formation of new pathways in the brain
that make it easier to cope with negative emotions."

Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky
