Answer: (Woodrow) Wilson
答案:(伍德罗)威尔逊
Explanation: When Woodrow Wilson became the 28th president of the United States in 1912,
解释:当伍德罗·威尔逊于1912年成为美国第28任总统时,
he had no idea (or absolutely did not know) that he would have to lead the country through the first global war,
他根本就不知道(或完全不知道)他必须领导该国经历第一个全球的战争,
or a war that affected (or changed or influenced) the whole world.
或者是一场波及(或改变或影响了)整个世界的战争 。
World War I began in 1914 and it affected the rest of his presidency (or the time when he was president).
第一次世界大战始于1914年,它影响了他的总统剩余任期(或他担任总统的时候) 。
At first, President Wilson wanted the United States to be as neutral as possible, not fighting on either side of the war.
起初,威尔逊总统希望美国尽可能地保持中立,不跟任何一方交战 。
However, the Germans kept attacking (or fighting) with submarines, which are large boats that travel under the water, where they can't be seen.
然而,德国人不断地用潜艇攻击(或战斗),也就是在看不见的水下潜航的大型船只 。
This made President Wilson decide to enter the war.
这就促使威尔逊总统决定参战 。
He started the United States' first real draft in 1917.
1917年,他发动了美国首次实际有效的征兵 。
The draft made young American men fight in the army whether they wanted to or not.
这一征兵让年轻的美国人参军打仗,无论他们是否愿意 。
