Solution

failed
failed
Answer

The answer is No change

Explanation
Option 1: keeping your sunny side up

This phrase is informal and colloquial, which is not suitable for academic writing. Academic writing typically requires a more formal tone and precise language.

Option 2: establishing a sense of euphoria over an extended period of time

This option is not appropriate because it implies an unrealistic and exaggerated state of happiness, which is not synonymous with maintaining a positive outlook. It also introduces unnecessary complexity to the sentence.

Option 3: No change

The original phrase "maintaining a positive outlook" is clear, formal, and appropriate for academic writing. It accurately conveys the intended meaning without unnecessary embellishment.
