Explanation:

To determine the juxtaposed ideas, analyze the lines: "Our cares are bold... steal our time from pleasure". Cares (worries) dominate, while joy (pleasure) is ignored. Let's evaluate options:

• First option: The lines don't say joy doesn't help worry. Eliminate.
• Second option: The text doesn't claim joy isn't natural. Eliminate.
• Third option: Matches the contrast: joy (pleasure) is ignored, while cares/worries take over (bold, hand about all day, steal time from pleasure).
• Fourth option: The lines focus on worries dominating, not that we should focus on worries. Eliminate.

Answer:

The correct option is: While joy is often ignored, cares and worries take over our lives.
