A name that is in the Bible is the name of a city, Philadelphia.It means the City of Brotherly Love.This name was chosen to give to the largest city in Pennsylvania, in fact, the third largest city in all the United States, but I don't know whether it suits or not.Philadelphia was the capital of the United States before there was any Washington, D.C., but now it isn't even the capital of its own State.Here in an old building, called Independence Hall, is the bell that rang out the news when the United States was first made a country.It is now cracked, so will not ring any more, but is more treasured than any bell in the United States that can ring.
有座城市的名字是取自于《圣经》—非拉铁非（简称费城），意思是兄弟之爱的城市。费城是宾夕法尼亚最大的城市， 也是美国第三大城市，但我不知道这合不合适。华盛顿特区成立之前，费城曾是美国的首都，但现在连自己本州的首府都不是 了。费城有一座古老的建筑，名叫独立大厅，厅内有一口大钟，美国刚刚成立时，这口大钟响起，宣示了美国独立。现在钟已经破损了，再也不能响了，但是却比美国任何一口能敲响的钟都要珍贵。
The biggest bathtub in the World is not far from Philadelphia.It is an ocean bath called Atlantic City, on the coast of New Jersey.People from all over the World go there to take salt baths and sun baths and to be amused.There is a boardwalk miles long and as wide as a street close by the ocean, and along its side is every kind of thing to amuse you and your "stomach".If you want to see a board "walk", go to Atlantic City.
世界上最大的“浴缸”离费城不远。那是一个叫大西洋城的海洋浴场，位于新泽西州海岸。来自世界各地的人到那里去享受盐浴和日光浴，尽情玩乐。大西洋城海滨有一条几英里长的木板人行道，有街道那么宽，两旁有各种各样供你娱乐的东西，也有各种美食满足你的胃口。如果你想享受这样一条人行道，就去大西洋城吧。
