45.What are the two major political parties in the United States?
45.美国的两大政党是？
Answer: Democratic and Republican
答案：民主党和共和党
Explanation: More than 300 million people live in the United States and they have many different opinions about how the government should be.
解释：美国有三亿多人口，这些人对于政府应该如何运作的意见各异。
If each of them voted independently (or alone, not paying attention to what other people are doing), then it would be very difficult to predict (or know ahead of time) how our government would be, and no one would be able to have very much power in American government.
如果他们每个人都单独投票（或独自，不关心其他人在做什么）的话，那么就很难预测（或事先知道）我们的政府会是什么样的，并且没有人能在美国政府中拥有太多的权力。
However, our country has many political parties (or organized groups of people who have similar political opinions and try to get power in the government) that people can be affiliated with (or connected to as a member).
然而，我们国家有很多的政党（或有组织的一群人，他们有相同的政治观点并试图在政府中获得权力）可供人们加入（或联系在一起的党员）。
The two biggest political parties are the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
最大的两大政党是民主党和共和党。
The Democratic Party is more liberal, believing that wealth (or money) should be shared among all people and that the government should make laws to help this happen, even if that means having higher taxes (or money paid to the government) so it can give help and services to everyone.
民主党更加自由，认为财富（或金钱）应该人人共享并且政府应该通过立法来实现这一点，即使这意味着征更重的赋税（或上交给政府的钱），这样它就能向所有人提供帮助和服务。
The Democratic Party is also left-leaning socially, emphasizing (or giving importance to) protecting the environment, equal (or the same) rights for all people, and other social issues.
民主党在社会问题上更为左倾，强调（或注重）保护环境，人人的权利平等（或相同）和其他的社会问题。
