John Fitzgerald "Jack" Kennedy was born in 1917 and was assassinated in 1963. He is also known by his initials JFK. Kennedy was the 35th President of the United States. Of Irish descent, he was born in Massachusetts and graduated from Harvard in 1940. He joined the Navy and in 1943 his boat was sunk by the Japanese. Despite grave injuries, he led the survivors through perilous waters to safety.
約翰·費茨杰拉德·肯尼迪出生于1917年，于1963年遇刺身亡。人們更為熟知的是他名字的縮寫-JFK。肯尼迪是美國第35任總統。肯尼迪是愛爾蘭后裔，他出生于馬塞諸塞州，1940年畢業于哈佛大學。他曾是一名海軍，1943年，他的船只被日本船只擊沉。盡管身負重傷，盡管水流湍急，肯尼迪讓幸存者得以安全。
Back from the war, JFK became a Democratic Congressman, advancing to the Senate in 1953. He married Jacqueline Bouvier in 1953. In 1955, he wrote “Profiles in Courage”, which won the Pulitzer Prize in history. In 1960 millions watched his television debates with the Republican candidate, Richard M. Nixon. He won the presidency by a narrow margin and became the first Roman Catholic President.
二戰之后，肯尼迪成為了民主黨議員，并于1953年進入參議院。1953年，他與杰奎琳·布維爾完婚。1955年，他寫了一本名叫《肯尼迪：信仰在風中飄揚》的書，并獲得了普利策獎。1960年，上百萬人都在電視機旁觀看了他與共和黨候選人-理查德·尼克松的辯論。他以微弱的優勢獲勝，并成為了第一名信仰羅馬天主教的總統。
His Inaugural Address offered the memorable words: "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what youcan do for your country." As President, he set out to keep his campaign promise to get America moving again. His economic programs launched the country on its longest economic growth since World War II. He also took vigorous action in the cause of equal rights.
他在就職典禮上說了一番讓人難以忘懷的話語：“不要問國家能為你干什么；要問你能給國家干什么”。作為總統，他堅守著他在競選時所說的承諾，即讓美國再一次騰飛。二戰以來，他的經濟方案使得美國進入了最長時間的增長階段。他加大力度讓人民實現平等權利。
Kennedy increased the nation's military strength and spending on the space race during the Cold War. He confronted Russia when it tried to put nuclear missiles in Cuba. While the world trembled on the brink of nuclear war, the Russians backed down. On November 22, 1963, hardly past his first thousand days in office, JFK was assassinated. He was the youngest man elected President and the youngest to die.
肯尼迪增加了美國的軍事實力，在冷戰時期加大對太空競賽的投入。在向古巴投放原子彈時與俄羅斯對峙。當時，世界進入到了核戰爭的邊遠，俄羅斯做出了讓步。1963年11月22日，肯尼迪遇刺，他在任時間還不到一千天。他是美國最年輕的總統，也是最早去世的總統。
