Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt was the 26th President of America. He served for two terms between 1901 and 1909. He was born in 1858 in New York City. He was mostly home schooled because of ill health as a child. He graduated from Harvard (where he was a boxing champion) and in 1880 entered law school. He dropped out a year later to enter politics. He is often ranked as the greatest ever U.S. President.
西奥多·罗斯福是美国第26任总统，人称“泰迪”。他的任期为1901-1909，共两届。1858年，他出生于纽约市。小时候体弱多病，大部分时间在家中完成学业。罗斯福毕业于哈佛大学（当时他是学校的拳击冠军），1880年，进入法律学校。一年之后辍学，并进入政坛。人们经常认为他是美国最伟大的总统。
During the Spanish-American War, Roosevelt was lieutenant colonel of the Rough Rider Regiment, which he led on a charge at the battle of San Juan. His war-hero status prompted New York Republicans to nominate himas Governor to draw attention away from the state’s scandals. Roosevelt won the election and served with distinction for two years.

Roosevelt became Vice President in March 1901. Six months later, with the assassination of President McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, not quite 43, became the youngest President in the nation's history. He brought new excitement and power to the Presidency as he vigorously led Congress and the American public toward progressive reforms and a strong foreign policy.

As President, Roosevelt believed that the Government should play a greater role in the economy. He steeredthe U.S. more actively into world politics. He liked to quote a favorite proverb, "Speak softly and carry a big stick, and you will go far." He won the Nobel Peace Prize for mediating the Russo-Japanese War. Someof his biggest achievements were in conserving America’s national parks. He died in 1919 aged 60.
