We study the periodic solutions of the second-order differential equations of the form $\ddot x ± x^{n} = μ f(t),$ or $\ddot x ± |x|^{n} = μ f(t),$ where $n=4,5,...$, $f(t)$ is a continuous $T$-periodic function such that $\int_0^T {f\left( t \right)} dt\ne 0$, and $μ$ is a positive small parameter. Note that the differential equations $\ddot x ± x^{n} = μ f(t)$ are only continuous in $t$ and smooth in $x$, and that the differential equations $\ddot x ± |x|^{n} = μ f(t)$ are only continuous in $t$ and locally-Lipschitz in $x$.
