TASK 1. Translate the text:
[center]The American System of Government[/center]
The governmental systems in the United States - federal, state, county, and local - are quite easy to understand, that is, if you grew up with them and studied them in school. One foreign expert complained, for example, that the complexity of just the cities’ political and governmental structure is “almost unbelievable.” The "real Chicago,” he explained” , spreads over 2 states, 6 counties, 10 towns, 30 cities, 49 townships, and 110 villages. Overlaid upon this complex patter are 235 tax districts and more than 400 school districts...”
There are, however, several basic principles which are found at all levels of American government. One of these is the “one person, one vote” principle which says that legislators are elected from geographical districts directly by the voters. Under this principle, all election districts must have about the same number of residents.
Another fundamental principle of America government is that because of the system of checks and balances, compromise in politics is a matter of necessity, not choice. For example, the House Representatives controls spending and finance, so the President must have its agreement for his proposals and programmes. He cannot declare war, either, Without the approval of Congress. In foreign affairs, he is also strongly limited. Any treaty must first be approval of Congress. If there is no approval, there’s no treaty. The rule is “the President proposes, but Congress disposes.” What a President wants to do, therefore, is often a different thing from what a President is able to do.
