听力原文:M: Are you ready for the trip to museums in "The Big Apple"? I can hardly wait.
W: "The Big Apple"? What are you talking about?
M: "The Big Apple" is the nickname for New York City. You axe going to New York with us, arch' t you?
W: Yes, I'm going. I'm especially looking forward to seeing the Museum of Modem Art. There's a special show of the twentieth-century American painters there. But, tell me, where did the nickname "The Big Apple" come from?
M: The jazz musicians of the 1920' s were responsible for the name. When they played a concert in a city, they called that city an apple. Of course, New York was the biggest city in the country and the best place for a jazz concert. So, the musicians called it "The Big Apple.'
W: Amazing! New York is such a fascinating place and it even has an interesting nickname, one that it's had for more than fifty years.
