Dick often goes travelling during the summer holiday and almost always has a good time.

He went to an old temple (庙) on a high mountain by himself. On his way there it suddenly began to rain heavily and 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 he found the bridge was damaged. He saw the river was not too deep and tried to swim across it. In the middle of the river the water nearly washed him away. Luckily, two farmers saved him, but he lost his bag. They gave him some food and dry clothes. He thanked them and went to the nearest town to call up his parents.
At the end of the street, Dick found a small hotel and went in. He asked the price for a single 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.

Travelling is one of the most important activities for people. Modern traffic develops fast, so travelling to different places has become much faster than before. Staying healthy while travelling can make your trip happier. But do you know how to keep healthy during a trip? The following information may be useful to you.
Before leaving, you should prepare comfortable shoes, a hat and a pair of sunglasses for yourself. Take some necessary medicine with you. They can be used when you get sick or have other problems. Do some exercise for weeks or months before you leave if you plan to do lots of walking or climbing during your trip. Prepare proper food. Before you prepare the food, the first thing you need to think about is how long you will travel with the food. If you take a long trip, you should bring food such as bread, biscuits and some fruit. They don’t go bad quickly. For shorter trip, people can bring meat, fish, eggs, milk and even salads and vegetables.
During your tip, be sure not to eat dirty food or bad fruit. Have enough time to take a rest during your trip. Tap water is not safe, so drink bottled water and remember to clean the cover of the bottle. Keep food in good condition. If you take hot food, you should try to keep it hot. For example, you can put it in heavy towels. If you need to keep cold food cold, you can put it in a box with ice. When you arrive, put it in the fridge.
