世博會(huì)在二戰(zhàn)后停辦了很長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間。比利時(shí)首都布魯塞爾是二戰(zhàn)后第一個(gè)舉辦世博會(huì)的城市。

Brussels is the capital of Belgium. But why do people also call it the capital of Europe? Because in addition to the headquarters of the EU, there are hundreds in Brussels. Brussels has held two World Expos, one was in 1935, and the other was in 1958.

There is a statue of a boy. The boy is brave and bright. One day, someone wanted to blow up the city. The little boy found the burning fuse. Then, he pissed on it to put out the fire. The clever boy saved the city.

The Atomium is another landmark of Brussels. It was built for the World Expo 1958. Why are there 9 big balls on the Atomium? Because there were only 9 members in the EU back then.

布魯塞爾是比利時(shí)的首都。可是為什么人們也稱(chēng)它為歐洲的首都呢?因?yàn)槌藲W盟總部外,還有數(shù)百個(gè)國(guó)際機(jī)構(gòu)設(shè)在布魯塞爾。布魯塞爾曾經(jīng)舉辦過(guò)兩次世博會(huì),一次在1935年,另一次在1958年。

這里有一座男孩塑像。這個(gè)男孩既勇敢又聰明。有一天,有人試圖炸掉這座城市。小男孩發(fā)現(xiàn)了點(diǎn)著的引線。于是,他在引線上尿尿,熄滅了它。聰明的男孩救了這座城市。

原子塔是布魯塞爾的另一個(gè)地標(biāo)。原子塔是為1958年的世博會(huì)而建的。為什么原子塔上有9個(gè)大球呢?因?yàn)槟菚r(shí)歐盟只有9個(gè)成員國(guó)。
