Explanation: World War I, which was fought from 1914 to 1918, was called the War to End All Wars.
解释：从1914年持续到1918年的第一次世界大战被称为“终结所有战争的战争”。
People thought that it was such a big war that no other wars would need to be fought.
人们认为这场战争的规模是如此大，所以再也不会发生其他战争了。
Obviously (or clearly), this was wrong.
很显然（或很明显），这一想法是错误的。
In the 1900s, the United States fought in five wars.
在20世纪，美国总共打了五场战争。
After World War I, the United States fought in World War II.
一战过后，美国又参加了二战。
The United States didn't want to fight in that war, but when the Japanese bombed (or dropped weapons or things that would explode on) Pearl Harbor, the country decided that it was time to join the war against Japan, Germany, and Italy.
美国并不想参战，但当日本轰炸（或投下武器或爆炸物）珍珠港的时候，美国认为是时候加入这场对抗日本、德国和意大利的战争了。
The next war that the United States fought in during the 1900s was the Korean War between 1950 and 1953.
美国在20世纪打的下一场战争是1950年至1953年的朝鲜战争。
North Korea and South Korea were fighting against each other, mostly because North Korea had a communist government and South Korea did not.
朝鲜和韩国当时正在打内战，这主要是因为朝鲜是共产主义政府而韩国却不是。
Soon the United States and the Soviet Union became involved as an extension (or an additional part) of their Cold War,
不久后，作为他们的冷战的延伸（或额外的部分），美国和苏联参与了进来，
which was the period of time from the 1940s to the 1990s when the United States and the Soviet Union had many political problems with each other.
这是20世纪40年代至90年代美国和苏联之间存在诸多政治矛盾的时期。
