Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. derive.
The sentence means we should adopt positive thinking to get or obtain the many benefits it offers.
"Derive" means to obtain or receive something, which fits perfectly here.
Option 1: ignore means to pay no attention, which is opposite of the intended meaning.
Option 2: release means to let go, which doesn’t fit here.
Option 3: contain means to hold or include, which is not appropriate for benefits being offered.
