My younger brother has been borrowing my laptop without asking for my permission. (Мой младший брат берет мой ноутбук, не спрашивая у меня разрешения.)
He has broken my favourite mug but hasn't apologized. (Он разбил мою любимую кружку, но не извинился.)
He has eaten a bar of chocolate that I bought yesterday. (Он съел плитку шоколада, которую я вчера купил(а).)
He has worn my denim jacket several times. (Он несколько раз надевал/носил мою джинсовую куртку.)
I have been trying to do my homework but he has turned up the radio and has been listening to music! (Я пытаюсь делать уроки, а он включил погромче радио и слушает музыку!)
And to top it all, he hasn't been helping me with household chores. (И в довершение всего, он не мне по дому.)
As you know the colonies in America won the Revolutionary War (the War of Independence 1775-1783). After that they became free and independent states, but they had a problem: they needed; one strong national government. That's why in the year 1787 all the states sent their representatives to Philadelphia where they wrote the Constitution. The Constitution is the highest law in the United States which describes the powers of the national government and the powers of the state governments. The trunk is the people. It holds up the tree: without the support of the people there can be no government. People choose the men who make American laws. The first branch on the tree of government is the Congress. The Congress is a meeting of representatives from all states. The people elect those representatives. The US President is Commander in Chief of the country's armed forces. A person who wants to become President must be born in the United States, must be at least 35 years old and must live in the United States for at least 14 years before becoming President. In 1920, the 19th amendment gave women the right to vote. In 1971, the 26th amendment gave people 18 years old and older the right to vote.
