【2015高考复习】阅读理解 Does your local town have a nickname?If so,what does it say about the area and the people who live there?
Many cities are recognized across the world by
their unofficial titles.New York is the Big Apple,London is the Big Smoke,and Los Angeles is famously called La La Land.
Now Britain's National Mapping Agency(规划局),Ordnance Survey,and the British Linguistics (语言学)Charity,the English Project,are launching an interactive project to uncover the nicknames people use for local places.
The project,which was launched last week to coincide with English Language Day,is called Location Lingo.It aims to identify the names people use every day,whether it's a term of endearment(昵称) or a hate name.
The University of Winchester's Professor Bill Lucas is a leader of the English Project.He explains that unofficial place names often show what people think about a place.“The name that people conjure_up or create for a place forms an emotional connection,”he says.“So Basingstoke becomes Amazingstoke,Swindon is known as Swindump.Padstow,hometown of chef Rick Stein,is nicknamed Padstein.”
