Big Apple为什么是纽约的别称？
Big Apple

Dating back to the early 1920's, this term refers to all horse racetracks around the city of New York.
These tracks were the big money courses and the word apple refers to the prize.
A few years later the term was used by musicians to describe the whole city.
In the 1970's the term was used in a NYC tourism ad campaign and became famous.
