Question

閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)文章后的題目要求回答76-80小題。

Tibet lies high in the mountains, where there are few trees for fuel and the ground is too hard to dig a grave. Therefore, for centuries, one of the most common ways for Tibetans to dispose of dead bodies has been by sky burials. Basically, this means allowing vultures（禿鷹）to eat the corpses.

In many cultures, allowing animals to eat the bodies of relatives would show a lack of respect for them. But Tibetan views on dead bodies are different. Tibetans believe that the body is simply a container for the spirit, and it is only the spirit that is important.

After a Tibetan dies, the body is not touched for three days. The spirit is allowed to leave peacefully. Lengthy prayers are said for the spirit, and then the body is taken for sky burial.

Sky burials take place outside temples, with monks in attendance. People might travel for days with the dead to reach an auspicious（吉利的）temple. In the whole of Tibet there are only three temples that are considered particularly auspicious.

The burial itself takes place quickly, with little ceremony. First the body is stripped naked and placed on holy stones. It is then cut into small pieces and the bones are broken. When everything has been made easy to digest, the monks say prayers for the deceased and move back. Vultures flock to the remains, and within a short time, there is nothing left.

Tibetans believe that ___________________ the body will be returned to the mountains and the spirit will be allowed to fly free.
