1、阿肯色(Arkansas): 机会之乡(Land of Opportunity)

The southern state of Arkansas is the Land of Opportunity. The state

legislature chose this nickname. Arkansas is rich in natural resources and has

become a favorite place for older people to retire.

位于南部的阿肯色州被称为机会之乡(Land of Opportunity)。该州的立法机关确立了

这个别名。阿肯色州自然资源丰富，现已成为老年人退休的最好去处。

2、阿拉斯加(Alaska): 最后的边疆(the Last Frontier)

Way up north, Alaska is called the Last Frontier for understandable reasons.

Near the Arctic Circle, it was the final part of the nation to be explored and settled.

它靠近北极圈，是美国拓疆的最后一块国土。

3、爱达荷(Idaho): 宝石州(Gem State)

Idaho is known as the Gem State. This is not because it has diamonds but

because it believes it is the jewel of the western Rocky Mountains.

爱达荷州被称为“宝石州”。这并非是因为该州盛产钻石，而是因为该州认为自己是

4、北达科他(North Dakota): 摇尾鼠州(Flickertail State)

North Dakota gets its nickname, the Flickertail State not from some bird, but

from a little squirrel.

5、北卡罗来纳(North Carolina): 焦油脚后跟州(Tar Heel State)

North Carolina is the Tar Heel State. That is because many of the men who

worked to gather substances from trees wore no shoes. They would make

turpentine from tar and get the black, sticky tar on the heels of their feet.

北卡罗莱纳被称为“焦油脚后跟之州”。因为许多采集树脂的人都光着脚。他们从树

脂中提炼松节油，然后他们的脚后跟就会沾上黑色黏稠的焦油。

6、宾夕法尼亚(Pennsylvania): 基石州(Keystone State)

Pennsylvania's nickname is the Keystone State. Just as a keystone holds

together a stone arch, Pennsylvania was seen as holding together the young

American republic. Pennsylvania is also sometimes called the Quaker State. Its

founder, William Penn, and most of his followers, were members of the Protestant

Quaker religion.

宾夕法尼亚州的别名是“基石州”。正如垒成牌坊的基石，宾夕法尼亚州被视为维系

者创始人威廉•佩恩和他的多数追随者是基督新教贵格会成员。
