美西戰爭後，羅斯福以國家英雄的形象返國。他喜歡形容這場戰事為「一場 Bully 戰事」，Bully是當時的一個俚語，意指「第一流」或「傑出的」；面對問題時，他喜歡用來形容的另一個措辭是「絕不迴避，永遠面對。」

羅斯福是一個非常果斷的總統；在他的任期內，他強迫煤礦主人與他們的罷工礦工協議、推行保存土地的相關法律，並因居中調停1905年的日俄戰爭而獲頒諾貝爾和平獎。就您認識的羅斯福總統，您認為他的總統任內還提出了那些議題？

Roosevelt came back from the Spanish-American War as a national hero. He liked to say, "We had a 'bully' fight." "Bully" was a slang word at the time that meant "first-rate" or "splendid." Another phrase he liked to use when facing a problem was "never around, always through."

Roosevelt was a very determined president. During his term, he forced coal mine owners to negotiate with striking miners, pushed through laws to conserve land and won the Nobel Peace Prize for helping to end a war between Japan and Russia in 1905. Knowing what you do about Roosevelt, what other kinds of issues do you think he focused on during his years as President?
