　　第一部分：英文原文

　　In 1933, Franklin Delano Roosevelt famously used his first 100 days as president to attack the demons of the Great Depression. All new presidents since have had a 100-day gantlet to confront the ills that face them.

　　Having run more than five 100-day gantlets since announcing his candidacy in June 2015, Donald Trump has had practice facing demons.

　　That’s the bad news. The good news is our 45th president has a garden to tend. It has been left to him, and to the entire nation, by first lady Mi-chelle Obama in the form of the White House Kitchen Garden, her greatest achievement while living in the People’s House.
