Such questions will continue to come from senior doctors. When you listen some abnormal heart sounds, you should go for ecocardiogram of the patient. With Doppler study, you will get complete information of the defects and blood flow of the heart. You have to listen heart sounds very routinely to know the 'normal' heart sounds. There is no short cut for the same.

What is the source of sound in your heart beat?
the sounds of the heart "LUBB-DUPP" are produced due to the sharp closure of the valves of the heart. the first sound is produced when the auricular-ventricular valve(bicuspid and tricuspid valve)closes. the second one is produced when the semilunar valves(pulmonary and aortic valves) close.
Why abnormalities of the heart is better detected by ausculation rather than electrocardiography?
with electrocardiography and auscultation different abnormalities can be detected. For example, ecg can show abnormal rythms (due to the damage to the conductive tissue or high level of potassium). But cardiac mummurs can only be heard (they're because of valvular problems)

What is the heart rate of a fit person compared to a unfit person?
The heartrate of an unfit person can be good and also bad.First thing is do you exercise? Do you eat healthy? Do you smoke? Unhealthy people tend to have underlying serious heart conditions that can be fatal. The heart works very hard to keep us going and if it;s abused it can no longer do this. A healthy person has a heart rate of about 70-100 beats per minute in a constant cycle. What is your age? Have you had any type of ECG or Echo done lately? Do you have high blood pressure? One thing I can suggest is to buy a stethoscope and try to see if you have a normal sinus rhythm.There are 4 points of the heart the S1 S2 S3 S4 and then the apex. If you buy a stethoscope google heart exams and it will show you how to do this. If you listen to your heart and hear no swooshing or odd noises just lub dub then your probally ok.
