阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Two sailors ran into each other in a pub. Over a few  31  , one of the men told the other about his last voyage. “After a month at sea,” he said, “we  32  our masts (桅杆) had been  33   through by termites (白蚁)！Almost nothing left of them.”
“That’s terrible,” said the second sailor. 
“That’s what I thought at first, too,” the first sailor said, “but it  34  out to be good luck. As soon as we took the sails  35   to fix the masts, we were hit by a(n)   36   wind so suddenly and so hard, it would   37   have blown us over if our sails were up at the time.”
“How   38  !” exclaimed the second sailor. 
“That’s   39   what I thought at the time, too. But because our sails were down, we couldn’t   40   ourselves, and because of the wind, we were blown   41  a reef(礁). The hole in the hull was too big to fix. We were stranded(搁浅).”
“That’s a bad luck indeed,” sighed the second sailor.
    “That’s what I thought, too, when it first happened. But we all   42   it to the beach alive and had plenty of food to eat. But now here’s the real   43  : While we were on the island   44   about our terrible fate, we discovered a buried treasure!”
As this story proves, you don’t know if an event is “good” or “bad” except you look  45 , and even thinking about a past event you don’t really know,   46   life keeps going. The story is not over yet. Just because something hasn’t turned out to be an advantage, yet it doesn’t mean it is not ever going to.   47  , you can simply   48   whatever happens is “good”. 
So get in the habit of saying “That’s   49  !”  Since you don’t know for sure whether something will eventually work to your   50   or not, you might as well assume it will.
