26.We elect a President for how many years?

26.我们选出的总统任职几年?
Answer: Four (4)
答案:四年
Explanation: Many of the people who came to North America and later created the U.S. government had come from countries that had kings.
解释:许多移民北美且后来又创建美国政府的人都是来自有君王的国家。
Many of those kings had too much power and they abused (or used in a bad way) their power, because they knew that they would be king for their entire life.
许多君王大权在握却滥用(或者误用)权力,因为他们知道自己终身都是君王。
That's why, when it was time to create the new U.S. government, our Founding Fathers didn't want to have any more kings, or even a president who acted like a king.
所以在创建新的美国政府时,我们的国父们不希望再有国王或像国王一样的总统。
They didn't want anyone to be able to become president for the rest of his or her life,
他们不希望任何人能够当一辈子总统,
so they made a term of four years, meaning that a U.S. president can be president for four years and then has to be elected again.
因此他们制定了四年制任期,即美国总统任职四年,四年过后就要再次被选。
But how many times can a president be re-elected?
但是总统能够连任多少次呢?
The original (or first and unchanged) Constitution didn't say.
最早的(或者第一部且没有改变的)宪法未作规定。
