With his heart full of   , the man ran to the crossroads only to    three rather uninteresting shops. One shop was selling pieces of metal, another sold   , and thin wires were for sale in the third. Nothing and no one there seemed to    much to do with the revelation of truth.

Depressed and   , the seeker returned to the well to demand an    , but he was told only: “You will discover in the future.” With years     by, the memory of his experience at the well gradually    until one night. While he was walking, the sound of sitar (西塔琴) music   his attention. It was wonderful and it was played with great skill and   .

   and moved deeply, the truth seeker felt drawn towards the   . He looked at the fingers dancing over the strings. And then suddenly he let out a cry of joyful   : the sitar was made out of wires and pieces of metal and wood just like    he had once seen in the three stores.

Eventually he understood the   of the well: we have already been given everything we need; our    is to gather and use them in the proper way. Nothing is   so long as we recognize only fragments (碎片). But as soon as the pieces are put together, something new appears, whose nature we could not have     by considering the fragments alone.

Bali Beach Resort has plenty of attractions. It is a holiday paradise(樂(lè)園). The self-styled ‘Ultimate Island’ certainly has plenty for everyone.
Where in the world ?
Bali is located just off the eastern edge of the main Indonesian island of Java. To the east is the neighboring island of Lombok. To the south of Bali lies the expanse of the Indian Ocean, while to the north is the Bali Sea. The most popular resort with holidaymakers is Ubud north of Sanur.
When to go?
Bali has a tropical climate year round with an average daily temperature of 31℃(87℃F). The wet season is between October and April. The dry season is between May and September, and is the busiest time to visit the island as travelers take advantage of the long hot days and little rain.
Beach
Bali has a string of beaches, mainly in the south of the island. Head away from Bali’s beaches and a totally different world awaits you. Ubud is an easily accessible (接近的)jungle resort town with a good range of hotels, shops and restaurants. The active volcano of Mount Batur is a highlight and so are the mountain lakes.
Family fun
All of the resorts have plenty of facilities (設(shè)施)for families. In Ubud there is a monkey park, where young ones can see monkeys that are not kept in tiny cages and an elephant park where holidaymakers can ride an elephant.
Eating out
All of Bali’s holiday resorts offer international cooking to suit every tourist’s taste, with most of the better hotels having excellent restaurants. Indonesian Bintang beer is very popular.
Getting around
There are a limited number of local buses. The other public transport is to take the local “bemo” minibuses. These colourful little minibuses speed around the winding roads with fares negotiated (商議)on board, so it helps to speak a little of the local language. There are also taxis and both electric bikes and cars can be hired.

D
If you want to live longer and lower the risk of heart disease, a move to the mountains may help. Research by scientists in Greece shows that living in the mountains is good for the heart and longevity. People living at higher altitude have lower possibility of dying from heart disease than those closer to sea level, even if they have factors that could increase their risk."Residence in mountainous areas seems to have a 'protective effect' from heart disease," said Dr Nikos Baibas of the University of Athens.He and his colleagues suspect that the increased exercise from walking up mountainous area gives the heart a good workout and enables it to cope with lower levels of oxygen.
Researchers studied the health records and death rates of 1,150 Greeks who lived in three villages near Athens over 15 years.One village was 1,000 metres above sea level and the other two were in low-lying areas.Although men and women living in the mountainous village had higher blood pressure rates and other risk factors than people in the other villages, they had a lower rate of death from heart disease and other causes after a fifteen year follow-up."The contrast was more evident among men than among women," Baibas added in a report in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health.Heart disease is one of the world's top killers.Smoking, high blood pressure, raised cholesterol levels, being overweight or obese and a family history of the illness increase the odds of developing the disease.
68.The first sentence in the passage is used to __________.
A.tell readers what the passage focuses on      
B.give a very good guessing
C.warn people of the risk of heart disease      
D.name a new unknown illness
69.According to the passage, a person _________ may have less possibility of having heart attack.
A.with more money                        B.with a better living habit
C.from higher altitude                     D.in a happier mood
70.How long does the research of the Greeks last?
A.At most 10 years.                          B.About 15 years.
C.More than 20 years.                      D.Not mentioned.
71.Apart from altitude, how many factors raise the chance of developing heart disease?
A.three                B.Four                  C.Five                 D.Six
