On cloud nine - be extremely happy and excited. 1 is correct, as the sentence seeks to convey that the previous smartphone model sold out quickly after it had been released. 2 is correct, as the sentence tells us that despite making efforts, the person felt like putting in those efforts was worthless. 3 is incorrect, as the sentence tells us that winning the lottery made the person very happy. Thus, E is the correct answer.
