Explanation:
解释：
After the Constitution was written, it still had to be ratified (or approved) by the states. This meant that the people in each state had to vote in favor of (or for) the Constitution. The Federalists were a large group of people who supported the Constitution. The Antifederalists were a large group of people who did not like the Constitution. These two groups tried to influence (or affect) people’s opinions, trying to get them to vote for or against the Constitution.
宪法写完后仍需经过参议院的同意，这意味着每个州的人都要为宪法投票。邦联派人是支持宪法的一个大群体，反邦联派人是不支持宪法的一个大群体，这两大群体试图影响人们的观点，让人们支持或反对宪法。
One of the main ways that these groups tried to influence public opinion (or the way that most people think about something) was by writing essays (or short written documents or articles) and publishing them in newspapers. The Federalists wrote some very well-known essays called the Federalist Papers. These were 85 essays that were published (or printed) with the pseudonym (or the fake name that a writer or a group of writers use) of Publius.
这些群体试图影响公众观点（或大部分人考虑某事的方法）的主要方法是写文章（或写的短篇文件或文章）并发表于报纸上。邦联派人写了一些很出名的文章叫联邦党人文集，是85篇以普布利乌斯笔名（或个人或一群作家使用的假名字）发表的。
Actually, Publius was a pseudonym for three people: James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay. James Madison became the fourth U.S. president and he is often called the father (or creator) of the Constitution. Alexander Hamilton was the United States’ first secretary of the treasury, which is the part of the government that handles the country’s money. And John Jay was the country’s first chief justice, which is the most important judge in the United States. All three men strongly believed that the Constitution would be able to solve (or fix) the country’s problems.
实际上，普布利乌斯是三个人的笔名：詹姆斯.麦迪逊，亚历山大.汉密尔顿和约翰.杰伊。詹姆斯.麦迪逊是美国第四任总统，他经常被称为宪法之父。亚历山大.汉密尔顿是美国第一任财政部长，就是政府管理国家财务的部门，约翰.杰伊是国家的第一任最高法官，是美国最重要的法官。这三个人都相信宪法能解决国家的问题。
The Federalist Papers are powerful (or strong) essays that describe the Constitution in detail (or with a lot of information). The essays also present (or show) many reasons why people should vote to ratify the Constitution. Today many people still refer to (or look at) the Federalist Papers when they need to interpret the Constitution (or to understand what it means). That is because the people who wrote the Federalist Papers participated in the Constitutional Convention (or the meeting where the Constitution was written), so they had an intimate (or very close) knowledge of why the Constitution was written the way that it was.
联邦党人文集中的文章详细（或包含很多信息）描述了宪法，文章还列出了很多人们应该投票同意宪法的理由。现在人们需要解释宪法（理解宪法的意思）依然会查阅联邦党人文集，因为写联邦党人文集的人也参加了宪法例会（或编纂宪法的会议），因此宪法和联邦党人文集的编写有很密切的关系。
