The City of Brotherly Love

WORDS and THEIR STORIES.
Almost all American cities have nicknames.
They help establish a city's identity.
Two east coast cities -- Philadelphia and Boston
-- were both important
in the early history of the United States.
Philadelphia is best known as The City of Brotherly Love.
In sixteen eighty-one, King Charles the Second of England
gave William Penn a large amount of land to establish a colony.
The king named the colony Pennsylvania in honor of Penn's father.
William Penn was a Quaker.
He brought his beliefs about equality,
religious freedom and brotherly love to this new land.
Penn was also an expert in Latin and Greek.
He established a city and named it Philadelphia,
which is Greek for "brotherly love."
An ancient city called Philadelphia
was also noted in Christianity's holy book, the Bible.
Philadelphia became the social,
political and geographical center of the American colonies.
In the late seventeen hundreds,
many events that took place in Philadelphia
gave birth to the American Revolution and independence.
For example, the Declaration of Independence
and the Constitution were signed in the city.
Philadelphia was the temporary capital of the new nation
from seventeen ninety to eighteen hundred.
Some of Philadelphia's other nicknames are The Quaker City,
The Cradle of Liberty and The Birthplace of America.
Philadelphia is a long name.
(Music)
Boston is another important city.
It is one of the oldest cities in the United States.
In sixteen thirty, Puritan settlers from England established Boston
in what would become the state of Massachusetts.
Several major events took place in Boston before
and during the American Revolution.
You may have heard of the Boston Massacre,
the Boston Tea Party and the Battle of Bunker Hill.
So, like Philadelphia, Boston is called The Cradle of Liberty.
Another nickname is The Cradle of Modern America.
However, Boston's most famous nickname is Beantown.
But it was not because the city grew a lot of beans.
In the seventeen hundreds, Boston was a major trading center.
It received a lot of sugarcane from the West Indies.
Beans baked in molasses, a sugar product,
became a favorite food in the city.
Today, no companies there make Boston baked beans.
Restaurants in Boston rarely serve it.
But many Americans eat this tasty dish at home.

现在,是美国之音特别英语节目
《单词和它们的故事》
几乎所有的美国城市都有小名
它们帮助一个城市建立身份
它们也能在自己的市民中传播团结和荣誉(感)
两个东部沿海城市——费城和波士顿
都同等重要
对于美国的早期历史而言
费城著称为博爱城
在1681年,英国国王查理斯二世
授予威廉·佩恩一大片土地,用来建立一个殖民地
国王将殖民地命名为宾夕法尼亚州,以此纪念佩恩的父亲
威廉·佩恩是一个贵格派教徒
他把自己对于平等、
宗教自由和博爱的信仰带到了新大地
佩恩也是拉丁和希腊语的专家
他建立了一个城市并把它叫做费城
这在希腊语中是“博爱”的意思
有座叫做费城的古城
也在基督教的圣书即《圣经》中被记载
费城成了美国殖民地的社会、
政治和地理中心
在1700末
许多发生在费城的事件
促成了美国大革命和美国独立的诞生
例如,独立宣言
和1787宪法就是在费城签订的
费城是这个新生国家暂时的首都
从1790年到1800年
费城的一些其他小名有贵格会教徒之城、
自由的摇篮以及美国的诞生之地
费城是一个很长的名字
所以很多人就叫它费
(音乐)
波士顿是另一个重要的城市
它是美国历史最悠久的城市之一
在1630年,从英国来的清教徒移居者建立了波士顿
后来成为了马赛诸瑟联邦
有几个在美国大革命中和大革命之前的主要事件就发生在波士顿
有几个在美国大革命中和大革命之前的主要事件就发生在波士顿
你可能听说过波士顿惨案、
波士顿茶会和邦克山战役
所以,就像费城一样,波士顿也被叫做自由的摇篮
它的另一个昵称是现代美国的摇篮
然后,波士顿最著名的昵称是豆豆城
但这不是因为波士顿种很多豆子
在1700s,波士顿是主要的贸易中心
它接受了很多来自西印度群岛的蔗糖
糖蜜烤豆,一种糖制品
在波士顿成为了受欢迎的食品
很少会有餐厅供应它
但是很多美国人在家里吃这个美味的小食
(音乐)
