介绍纽约的英语作文不要太长要求:简介纽约历史的,please

People call New York “the Big Apple.” But why?In the nineteen nineties,two language researchers,Gerald Cohen and Barry Popik,followed the popularity back to a local sports writer.John J.Fitz Gerald wrote about horse racing in the nineteen twenties and used the term "big apple."
Horses love apples.The "big apple" meant the place with a lot of money to be won in racing.Fitz Gerald had heard New York described that way by African American workers at a racetrack in New Orleans.
And big it is.More than eight million people make New York the biggest city in the United States.
People who talk about "New York" often mean just Manhattan.But the city is divided into five areas called boroughs.These are Brooklyn,the Bronx,Manhattan,Queens and Staten Island.Only the Bronx is connected to the United States mainland.The others are surrounded by three rivers and New York Bay
