    Long long ago, there was a small village in the Middle East. In the village there was an old man (名字叫……) Sthira. He lived (独自) .His only son had gone far away to study. Sthira's friends didn't know if his son would return, but Sthira always said, "Whatever happens, happens for good."

    One day the old man's son returned and the villagers were very happy for Sthira. He thanked the villagers and said (礼貌地) , "Whatever happens, happens for good. "(然而) , one day Sthira's son(突然) fell off the horse and broke his leg. Once again the villagers came to visit him and once again the old man thanked them and said, "Whatever happens, happens for good." Some of the villagers were (吃惊的) to hear this. Why? What was good? His son's leg got badly (受伤) !

    After a few days, the army(军队) came to the village and asked all the young men to (加入) the army. When they found his son had a broken leg, they (留下) him behind. Once again, all the villagers came to congratulate(祝贺) him on his good (运气). Like always, the old man was still grateful to them and said, "Whatever happens, happens for good."
