莽骑兵
罗斯福以其无穷精力而着名。野牛比尔称呼他为「一阵旋风」,而马克吐温则形容他为「一场地震」。罗斯福年轻时,他在位于达科塔地区的自家牧场内当了两年的牛仔。1898年西班牙及美国开战时,他组织了一队名为「莽骑兵」的自愿骑兵 (Volunteer
Cavalry:马背上的军队) ;您想罗斯福在这场战争中的表现如何?
Roosevelt was known for his endless energy. Buffalo Bill called him "a cyclone" and Mark Twain called him "an earthquake." As a young man he spent two years as a cowboy on his ranch in the Dakota Territory. When Spain and the U.S. went to war in 1898, he organized a Volunteer Cavalry (an army unit on horseback), which was called "the Rough Riders." How do you think Roosevelt did in the war?
