  The apple is more than just a fruit. People use it for city names and business logos, too.

  “The Big Apple”stands for New York City.

  The phrase was first used in a 1909 book called“The Wayfarer in New York”It was used to show how rich New York is.

  Later, jazz musicians in the 1930s and 1940s made the phrase more popular. At that time, musicians earned money by playing in cities and towns across America.

  They said each city in America was an apple on a tree. But New York city, where most fans of their music lived, was“the big apple”. It was there they got the most pay.

  In the 1970s, the city wanted to make itself more popular with tourists. It started to use an apple as its symbol.(象征)

  Apples are also hot in the computer world. Apple Computer, a big company in America, uses a picture of an apple with a bite taken out of it as its logo. Some say that the bite(一口)means“learning knowledge”. Also,“bite”sounds similar to“byte(字节),”a unit(单位)in computer science.
