"Tomorrow we’ll see the Golden Gate Bridge, " said Peter. "I’ve never seen a golden bridge before. " Peter’s father smiled, but said nothing. Peter would soon see the bridge.
The next morning, his father took Peter to the bridge. How big it looked! And the bridge was red!
"It isn’ t named for its colour, " said his father. "It’s named for the Golden Gate. "
"What’s the Golden Gate?" asked Peter.
"A gate is either on opening, or a thing that closes an opening, " said his father. "The Golden Gate is an opening in the land. Water from the sea comes through this opening, into San Francisco Bay(旧金山湾). "
"Oh, " said Peter. "And the bridge is over the opening. But why is the opening called the Golden Gate?"
"Years ago men came here to look for gold. Many came by ship. For them it was a gate to gold. "
"Well, I still think the bridge should look golden. "
When Peter got home, he sent a letter to a newspaper. In the letter he said, "Red is not the right colour for the Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge should look golden, the way most people think it does. "
Peter sent all the money he had saved with his letter. "This money is to help paint the bridge, " he wrote.
Many people read Peter’ s letter. Right away, things began to happen! Some people sent money. A big company gave real gold.
