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《圣經》—非拉鐵非（簡稱費城），意思是兄弟之愛的城市。費城是賓夕法尼亞最大的城市， 也是美國第三大城市，但我不知道這合不合適。華盛頓特區成立之前，費城曾是美國的首都，但現在連自己本州的首府都不是 了。費城有一座古老的建筑，名叫獨立大廳，廳內有一口大鐘，美國剛剛成立時，這口大鐘響起，宣示了美國獨立。現在鐘已經破損了，再也不能響了，但是卻比美國任何一口能敲響的鐘都要珍貴。
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”離費城不遠。那是一個叫大西洋城的海洋浴場，位于新澤西州海岸。來自世界各地的人到那里去享受鹽浴和日光浴，盡情玩樂。大西洋城海濱有一條幾英里長的木板人行道，有街道那么寬，兩旁有各種各樣供你娛樂的東西，也有各種美食滿足你的胃口。如果你想享受這樣一條人行道，就去大西洋城吧。
