二、气候条件
Tennessee is perhaps best known for its music. After all, this is a state that contains two of the most musically significant cities of the 20th century: Nashville and Memphis.The former is the beating heart of the country music scene, lending its name to a subgenre in the mid-20th century, and the latter is the birthplace of rock ‘n’ roll, where such luminaries as Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash first made a name for themselves at Sun Studios.And with recent years producing artists such as Justin Timberlake, Ke$ha, Usher and The Kings of Leon, it seems that the state hasn’t yet lost its magic in this regard.
Outside of these two metropolises, which along with third city Knoxville are home to over the half of Tennessee’s population, the state’s geography falls into three distinct categories, represented by the three stars on the state flag.These are the Blue Ridge Mountains to the east, the fertile plateau around the Nashville Basin in the middle of the state, and the hot swampy lowlands around Memphis in the state’s west.This varied landscape means that there’s a lot to see beyond the state’s major urban centres, and, indeed, The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the country’s most visited national park.Tennessee is tied with Missouri as the state which borders the most others. If you want to explore the southern United States, then, Tennessee could serve as a great base of operations.
田纳西最出名的可能是它的音乐。毕竟，这是一个包含20世纪最具音乐性的城市的两个城市:纳什维尔和孟菲斯。前者是乡村音乐的核心，在20世纪中期将其命名为一种亚种，后者是摇滚乐的发源地，像猫王和约翰尼·卡什这样的杰出人物在太阳工作室首次成名。近年来，像贾斯汀·汀布莱克、Ke $ ha、Usher和Kings of Leon等艺术家，似乎国家还没有失去它在这方面的魔力。在这两个大都市之外，还有第三个城市诺克斯维尔是田纳西州人口的一半，该州的地理位置分为三个不同的类别，由州旗上的三颗星星代表。这些是东部的蓝岭山脉，位于该州中部的纳什维尔盆地周围的肥沃高原，以及该州西部孟菲斯附近的炎热沼泽低地。这种不同的景观意味着，除了国家的主要城市中心，还有很多地方可以看到，而且，大烟山国家公园是这个国家最受欢迎的国家公园。田纳西州与密苏里州接壤与其他州接壤。如果你想探索美国南部，那么田纳西可以作为一个很好的行动基地。
