美国有50个洲，每个洲的风光都不一样，下面出国留学网带来美国五十州的风光，现在就一起来看看美国各个州的颜值大比拼。Here we go!
40. Nebraska 内布拉斯加州
Sleep on Nebraska's subtle beauty if you want, but its big skies and rolling hills have a thoroughly pleasant and peaceful charm. As impressive as Toadstool Geologic Park (Nebraska's Badlands!) and Chimney Rock are, the Cornhusker State doesn't have the spectacular vistas of its neighbors to the west. What it does have is open spaces, the Platte River, and a complex and important ecosystem where literally millions of birds -- including 80% of the world's sandhill cranes -- visit every spring.
简称NE，是位于美国中部农业领先的一个州，州内大多数地区最多的是来自德国的后人。美国大部分农业州都以玉米为重点，Nebraska也不例外。不过幸好还有一个 Toadstool Geologic Park 毒蕈地质公园 位于内布拉斯加州西北角，它因其标志性的蘑菇状砂岩地层而得名。近距离地观察可以看见数百万年前在这里生活过的生物的化石遗迹，复杂而重要的生态系统也是其一大亮点。和大部分美村一样，Nebraska也是美国人最喜欢吐槽的一个州，《生活大爆炸》里的Penny就来自Nebraska的一个小农场，这个“平凡的出生“也是剧中一大吐槽点。
39. Georgia 乔治亚州
If you live in Florida, the most beautiful sight you'll ever see is when you cross the state line into Georgia and see gas prices drop a buck a gallon. Past that? There ain't much. Aside from the quaint Southernness of trees draped in Spanish moss in the southern part of the state, the scenic highlight is the "mountains" north of Atlanta. Which seem downright towering when you've been driving through Florida, but still don't measure up to the Smokies a few hours down the road.
简称GA，首府是美国第九大都市区Atlanta 亚特兰大，乔州也以桃子州或南方帝国之州的昵称闻名。位于乔州的佐治亚理工学院(Georgia Institute of Technology)是美国一所综合性公立大学，与麻省理工学院及加州理工学院并称为美国三大理工学院，有南方MIT之称。著名私立大学Emory University 埃默里大学 和著名女校Wesleyan College威斯里安女子学院(宋霭龄、宋庆龄都毕业于此)。乔治亚州的风景真是一言难尽，大概最让人眼前一亮的是从弗罗里达州进入乔州那一瞬间看到的价格差巨大的油价吧。
38. North Dakota 北达科他州
For some reason -- maybe some combination of fracking, the Coen brothers, and January -- the words "North Dakota" have become synonymous with "frozen wasteland." Which isn't completely inaccurate when discussing some parts of this state, but lest we forget it's also home to Theodore Roosevelt National Park, a breathtaking mix of prairies, mesas, and mountain views dotted with buffalo. And kind of like the cute girl with the smoke-show older sister, North Dakota doesn't get proper credit when compared to its beautiful sibling to the south.
简称北达州 ND，位于美国中西部，是大草原里最北的一州。北达州的Theodore Roosevelt National Park以西奥多·罗斯福总统名字命名，向这位伟大的总统和他身为自然资源保护主义者精神的致敬。从大约5500万年前的古新世(恐龙灭绝后)开始，在这里的大量被腐蚀的原木和树桩之间，就能看到石化树，是寻找远古冰冻森林的最好地方。
37. Delaware 特拉华州
You want to surprise someone? Send them a postcard from Delaware. "I never knew Delaware was that pretty," they'll say, looking at a silhouette of dune grasses framed by an ocean sunset. Actually, no one does, because Delaware's not large enough to hold more than three cars at a time. But if you're lucky enough to be in one of those three cars, you too can take in the rolling rural countrysides and the not-half-bad beach views and say, "Delaware. Hi. I'm in Delaware."
简称DE，是最早加入美国联邦的州，所以又有“第一州”这个称呼;也是美国第二小的州份，仅略大于罗得岛州(仅有的两个小于一万平方公里的微型州份)。对于美国这样一个面积超大的国家，特拉华州的迷你体型自然是一大吐槽点，Thrillist戏称其为“只能装下三辆车的州“。
36. Nevada 内华达州
Most people know this as Las Vegas plus the let's-floor-it portion of a drive to California. And, yes, the bulk of this state is so dusty and unremarkable that the military used to test nukes here without anyone really caring. But the highlights range from staggering to obscure. Red Rock Canyon, a mere Uber ride from the Vegas Strip, is a jaw-dropping haven of striated limestone and sandstone. The Ruby Valley is a foxy little patch of mountains that'll break up any trip across I-80. The swirling cream-and-crimson rock formations of Valley of Fire State Park look like Dr. Seuss drew them. And of course there's Lake Tahoe. Most of which is in California, but, hey, bright side, you made it.
内华达有啥?当然是世界级销金窟Las Vegas+紧挨加州这样优越的地理位置啊!简称NV，内华达州以其发达的赌博业而著称。Nevada名字来源于西班牙语，意思是“被雪覆盖”，原本是用来形容该州西部的内华达山的寒冷。内华达州是美国最干燥的一个州，全州大部分地区都是白雪覆盖的高山、峡谷和沙漠。虽然曾经美国人嫌弃这个州荒凉还在这里做各种核武器测试，但好歹内华达还有个六亿年前曾是海底世界、经过几次地壳变动形成今天的红石奇观的Red Rock Valley 红石峡谷，位于拉斯维加斯市中心西面20哩远，去Vegas旅游的旁友不妨也去体验一下这个世界级景观。还有Ruby Valley 拉莫伊尔峡谷(Ruby Mountains 鲁比山脉 中最大的峡谷。地表景观由以前冰河时代的冰川侵蚀而形成)、Valley of Fire State Park 火焰谷州立公园(位于Vegas东北90公里处，是内华达州最古老的国家公园，山谷中大面积露出地表的中生代时期的红色砂岩会在阳光下折射出像烈火般的红色，远远望去就像火烧山谷)、还有少不了的Lake Tahoe 太浩湖(位于加利福尼亚州和内华达州边界上，是北美最大的高山湖泊，也是美国第二深的湖泊。蓄水量全世界排名第26位)，也是很值得一去了。
End of today. See you next time & Have a nice day!
