Bali(巴厘島) is home to most of Indonesia's Hindu minority. Here's how to get the most out of a 48­hour visit:
FRIDAY
3pm—There's nothing like a good meal. La Lucciola is the place to go, with its good food, great service and a beautiful view of the sea.
You can hire a car for some 450,000 rupiah per day. This will help you have more to spare during your trip there.
5pm—About an hour away from La Lucciola is Uluwatu. This southern tip of the island is famous for its temple that lies on the edge, high above the sea. Fire dance is performed here daily at sunset.
8pm—To finish off the evening, head to Jimbaran Bay where restaurants offer candles, dances, boys singing songs. Kick off your shoes, feel the sand, and enjoy the night.
SATURDAY
9:30am—Start the day with another taste of culture by heading for a “barong and keris” dance performance. It's held in many places. One is the Catur Eka Budi in Denpasar, capital of Bali.
12pm—About 50km from Denpasar is Kintamani, a favorite with tourists for the view of active volcano Mt. Batur. It's a good idea to reach Kintamani early as it gets cloudy after 3pm. Have lunch at a local restaurant with a view of Mt. Batur. Tourists can climb to Mt. Batur to catch the sunrise.
6:30pm—Spa(溫泉療養(yǎng))time! Spa Hati is a good place. Book ahead.
SUNDAY
6am—It's time to go to the sea. Don't forget the camera.
10:30am—Another half­day trip to two of the most famous temples in Bali. Drive down to the Taman Ayun temple at Mengwi.
12am—Next up is the Tanah Lot temple, perhaps the most famous of them all. Built on a rock, it's best seen in the afternoon when it's against the sun or at sunset.
小題1:How can you save time during your trip in La Lucciola according to the text?
A.Having a pair of good shoes.
B.Preparing early and well.
C.Joining a tour group.
D.Hiring a car.
小題2:Where can you enjoy fire dance?

小題4:Which of the following needs to be booked in advance?
A.Joining in a “ barong and keris” dance.
B.Visiting the Tanah Lot temple.
C.Having a spa in Spa Hati.
D.Having lunch in Kintamani.

小題1:D
小題2:B
小題3:B
小題4:C

小題1:答案:D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“FRIDAY 3pm”提到“You can hire a car for...have more to spare during your trip there.”可知,雇傭一輛車是非常節(jié)省時(shí)間的一種方法。故答案選D項(xiàng)。
小題2:答案:B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“FRIDAY 5pm”中的介紹可知,在Uluwatu,“fire dance”經(jīng)常在日落時(shí)演出。故答案選B項(xiàng)。
小題3:答案:B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一句可知答案為B項(xiàng)。
小題4:答案:C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“SATURDAY 6:30pm”中的介紹可知,進(jìn)行溫泉洗浴是要提前預(yù)約的。故答案選C項(xiàng)。
