Solution
In Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels", the Houyhnhnms view death as a natural event of life and they are not upset when one occurs. They approach death with a rational and calm demeanor, without any fear or anxiety. This is because they believe in a life after death. Therefore, the correct answer is: "It's an event of life, and they are not upset when one occurs."
