A young man once went to town and bought himself a pair of pants. When he got home, he went to his room and put them on. He found that they were about two inches too long. He went into the kitchen, and his mother and two sisters were doing some washing there. He said to them, “The new pants are too long. They need cutting by two inches. Would one of you mind doing this for me?” His mother and sisters were busy and none of them said anything.
But as soon as his mother had finished washing up, she went to her son’s room silently and cut the pants by two inches. She came back without saying anything to her daughters. After supper, the elder sister remembered her brother’s pants. She went to his room and cut the pants by two inches without saying anything to anyone. The younger sister went to the cinema. But when she came back, she also remembered her brother’s pants. So she went to his room and cut them by two inches, too.

Do you have a nickname(昵称)? Most of us do by our looks, clothing, or personality. But for cities, the meaning of their nicknames has much more than that.
Many big cities have nicknames, such as New York—The Big Apple, London— The Great Smog, and Rome—The Eternal City. Why do cities have such nicknames?
In the 1920s,there were many races in New York.People called the prizes of these races apples. Writer John J. Eitz Gerald first called New York the Big Apple, because New York is the place that many people dreamed of going to the biggest prize of all.
For Rome, as the name suggests, the answer is simple. Romans believed that no matter what happened to the world, Rome would go on forever. Rome has been an important center of power {权利) for more than 2, 000 years.
