17．Dick often goes traveling when the summer holiday begins，but he was out of luck this summer．
He went to an old temple （寺院）on a high mountain by himself．On his way there it began to rain heavily，so he hurried to go down the mountain．When he got to the foot of the mountain，he found the wooden bridge was under the water，so he had to spend the rainy night in a broken farmhouse．He was so hungry that he hardly fell asleep．
The next morning the rain stopped and Dick found the bridge was damaged （损 坏）．When he saw the water was not too deep he decided to swim across the river．In the middle of the river he was nearly washed away by the water．Luckily，two farmers saved him．They gave him some food and dried clothes．He thanked them and went to the nearest town．
Dick found a small hotel and went in．He asked the price for a room．"A room on the first floor is twenty dollars，on the second floor，fifteen dollars and on the third，ten dollars，"answered the owner．
The young man has only eight dollars in all his pockets．He said thanks and was leaving； The owner asked，"Don't you like our hotel？"
"Yes，it's good，"said Dick，"but it's not tall enough!"

分析 迪克经常在暑假开始的时候旅行，但这个夏天他运气不太好．
他自己去了一个在高山上的老旧的寺庙．在他去的庙里的路上开始下大雨，所以他快速地下山了．当他到达山脚的时候，他发现桥被水淹没了，他不得不在一个破旧的农舍中度过这个雨夜．他太饥饿了因此很难入睡．
第二天早上雨停了，迪克发现桥毁坏了．当他发现河水并不是很深的时候，他决定游过这条河．在河中间他险些被水冲走．幸运的是，两个农民救了他，他们给迪克一些食物和衣服，迪克谢过他们之后去了附近最近的城镇．
迪克发现了一个小旅馆然后进入，他询问房间的价钱．店主回答："一层的房间一晚上20美元．二层的房间15美元，三层的房间10美元．"
在迪克的口袋里只有8美元，他对店主道谢之后离开了．店主问："你不喜欢我们的旅店吗？"迪克说："不，它很好，只是不够高．"
