50.What are two rights only for U.S. citizens?
50.只屬于美國公民的兩項權利是?
Answer: Apply for a federal job; Vote; Run for office; Carry a U.S. passport
答案:申請聯邦職務;投票;競選公職;持有美國護照
Explanation: The United States is a land of opportunity which means that there are a lot of things that people can achieve (or do) if they want to.
解釋:美國是機遇之邦,這就意味著只要人們敢想,他們就能在那做成很多事情。
But some opportunities are reserved (or set aside) only for U.S. citizens.
但有些機會是只留給美國公民的。
What can citizens do that no one else can?
公民能做哪些其他人不能做的事情呢?
Only U.S. citizens can vote, apply for a federal job, run for office, and carry a U.S. passport.
只有美國公民才能投票、申請聯邦職務、競選公職并持有美國護照。
Only U.S. citizens can vote in city, state, and federal (or national) elections.
只有美國公民才能在市、州和聯邦(或國家)的選舉中投票。
This is both a right (something that one can do) and a responsibility (something that one should do).
這個既是權利(某人可以做的事情)也是義務(某人應該做的事情)。
Many Americans choose not to vote, but they always have the opportunity to participate in elections if they want to.
許多美國人選擇不去投票,但只要他們愿意,就有機會參與選舉。
U.S. citizens can also apply for federal jobs (or jobs with the national government).
美國公民還能申請聯邦職位(或聯邦政府中的職位)。
These jobs are not available to people who are not U.S. citizens.
非美國公民的人不能申請這些職位。
Sometimes this is because of the risk (or the possibility of something bad happening) of national secrets (or important information other people shouldn't know about) being given to other countries.
有時這是因為國家機密(或他人不該知道的重要信息)落入他國之手的風險(壞事發生的可能性)。
