On the first day of the summer holiday, David and Roy were talking in front of his yard, waiting for their friends. “Do you all agree, then?” asked David. “We will go for a long cycle ride during the holidays. I expect the other three will agree. We can ask them when they come.”
“But what about Sammy?” said Roy. “He hasn’t got a bicycle. His father can’t afford to buy him one.”
“Oh, we hadn’t thought of that,” said David thoughtfully. “I wonder if we can borrow one for him.” At that moment Robert, Henry and Sammy arrived.
“You three are late,” said Roy. “What happened to you?”
“We had to come round the long way,” said Robert “The old bridge over the stream has fallen apart.”
“And that means we had to walk an extra quarter of a mile and use the other bridge,” added Henry. “The stream must be nearly five feet deep after all this rain.”
“Don’t worry,” said David. “The Village Council(委员会) will soon build another one.”
“Oh no,” replied Henry quickly. “My father has already asked about that. There isn’t enough money this year.” The boys were silent for a moment.
“I wonder who built that old bridge,” Robert said. “It was only a few tree trunks(树干) held together with some nails.” Then an ideas truck him. “Do you think we could rebuild it?”
“How wide is the gap?” asked David.
“About ten yards, I think,” replied Robert.
“You know…” David paused. “I think we could do it，if we planned it properly and could borrow the tools.”
“And if we could get the timber(原木),” added Roy. “And if I could persuade my father to help. He is a carpenter(木匠), after all.”
