15.答案：①-⑤GEDBC

解析：①上文是两个问句:你愿意与什么样的人在一起?是那些总是垂头丧气的人，还是

那些总是设法看到事情积极一面的人?因此G项（人们喜欢和积极的人而不是消极的人

在一起是意料之中的事）回答了上文提出的问题。

②上一句提到积极的心态可以在很多方面帮到你，因此E项（如果有积极的心态，你就能

给身边的人带去更多的快乐）紧承上文，说明了积极心态带给周围的人的好处。

③上一段讲了积极心态给周围的人带去的好处,下一句提到压力越少，你的整体感觉就越

好，因此D项（拥有积极的心态也能减少你的压力）在此承上启下。

④上一句提到拥有积极的心态不像把柠檬变成柠檬水那样简单，那是需要人的努力的，故

B项符合语境。

⑤上一句提到要找出生活中不顺的事情，下一句提到一次只专注于一件事，并找到它积极

的一面，因此C项（它们可能会使你产生消极的思想）在此承上启下。
