57.When must all men register for the Selective Service?
57.什么时候所有男性必须到兵役登记局登记？
Answer: At age eighteen (18)；Between eighteen (18) and twenty-six (26)
答案：18岁；18至26岁
Explanation: In the United States, military service (or the time spent working in the army) is voluntary (or optional and something that one chooses to do).
解释：在美国，服兵役（或在军队工作的时间）是自愿的（或非强制的并且是某人情愿去做事情）。
Under normal conditions, no one has to serve in the army if he or she doesn't want to.
在正常情况下，如果他或她不想服兵役的话，没有人必须要服兵役。
However, all men between the ages of 18 and 26 must register (or sign up for) the Selective Service, which is a part of the U.S. government that tries to find enough people to fight in a war or other national emergency (or a major problem that was not expected).
然而，所有年龄在18-26岁的男性必须到兵役登记局登记（或报名），它是美国政府的一部分，它设法找到足够多的人去打仗或应对其它国家的突发事件（或没有预料到的重大问题）。
The Selective Service keeps a list of names of all the men who are registered for the Selective Service.
兵役登记局保留所有在它那登记的男性名单。
If there is a war or another national emergency, the Selective Service will have a draft, which means that names are chosen at random (or with all of the names having an equal chance of being selected) to find out who will fight.
如果出现了战争或另一个国家的突发事件，兵役登记局就会进行征兵，也就意味着随机（或所有名字被选上的概率相同）抽选名字决定谁来参战
We say that the people whose names are picked have been drafted for the war.
我们说选中者将被征召入伍。
