嗨，女孩们。

Hello, girls.

欢迎收听《10 for teens and tweens》第146期。

Welcome to episode 146 of 10 for teens and tweens.

我是来自EmpowerfulGirls的斯蒂芬妮·瓦尔德兹。

I'm Stephanie Valdez from EmpowerfulGirls.

谢谢你们收听。

I appreciate you tuning in.

三月快结束了，也是妇女历史月，我希望你们能继续关注并感激那些为我们争取权利、活在我们之前的女性们。

As we wrap up March and Women's History Month, I hope that you'll continue to recognize and appreciate the women who lived before us and advocated for the rights we've had our whole lives.

其实啊，今天依然有无数女性和女孩正在创造历史，改变世界。

The thing is, women and girls are still making history today and changing the world.

所以我特别想介绍几位当代的女性榜样，希望她们的故事能激励你们去追逐自己的热爱。

So I want to highlight a few modern sheroes in hopes that they will inspire you to pursue your passions.

2022年，来自加州圣何塞的12岁女孩夏娅·吉尔看到当地一家餐馆着火了。

In 2022, then 12 year old Shanya Gill from San Jose, California saw a local restaurant burn down.

她了解到，没人看管的烹饪是家庭火灾的头号原因。

She learned that unattended cooking is the leading cause of home fires.

夏娅就想，能不能做个东西，在火灾还没发生前就提前预警。

Shanya hoped to create something that could warn people before fires even start.

于是她设计了一套火灾探测系统，用热成像摄像头和一台小型电脑，能分辨出是人造成的热源，还是像炉子这样的固定物体。

So she created a fire detection system that uses a thermal camera and a small computer that can tell the difference between heat sources that are human versus those that are stationary objects like a stove.

如果两分钟内没检测到人，系统就会发短信提醒可能存在火灾风险。

When no human is detected for two minutes, the system sends a text message to alert for a possible fire risk.

Shanya的这项发明赢得了赛默飞世尔科技青少年创新大赛冠军，连美国消防管理局都注意到了。

Shanya's invention won the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge, and it even caught the interest of the US Fire Administration.

我觉得这想法太棒了，真的能救命。

I think this is an absolutely brilliant idea that could literally save lives.

去年12月，澳大利亚跑者凯瑟琳·德里斯代尔成为首位赢得南极冰川马拉松的女性。

This past December, Australian runner Catherine Drysdale made history as the first woman to win the Antarctic Ice Marathon.

她以3小时48分43秒完赛，比其他所有选手——无论男女——都快了六分钟以上。

Catherine finished in three hours forty eight minutes and forty three, more than six minutes ahead of any other racer, man or woman.

这场26.2英里（约42.2公里）的马拉松，跟世界上任何其他赛事都不一样。

The 26.2 mile or 42.2 kilometer marathon is unlike any other in the world.

气温远低于冰点，赛道全是压实的冰雪，到了地球最南端，天气说变就变。

Temperatures are well below freezing, the race course is made of compacted snow and ice, and the weather conditions can change quickly at the bottom of the world.

但凯瑟琳坚持了下来，最终赢了。

But nonetheless, Catherine persisted and finished victoriously.

我简直没法想象那场马拉松有多难，但凯瑟琳的坚持真的太让人鼓舞了。

I can't even imagine how difficult that marathon was, but Catherine's perseverance is completely inspiring.

《时代》杂志2025年度儿童之星泰贾斯维·马诺杰，看到自己85岁的爷爷差点被一封冒充他叔叔的诈骗邮件骗走几千美元。

Time Magazine's twenty twenty five kid of the year, Tejasvi Manoj, saw her 85 year old grandpa almost lose thousands of dollars to an email scam pretending to be her uncle.

骗子经常盯上老年人，一旦得手，很可能把人家一辈子的积蓄一扫而空。

Sadly, scammers often target senior citizens, and if they're successful, they can wipe out a retired person's entire life savings.

为了帮像爷爷这样的老人，泰贾斯维专门做了一个网站和App，叫‘Shield Seniors’，教老年人识别网络骗局，还教他们怎么向政府部门举报。

Determined to do something to help people like her grandpa, Tejasvi created a website and app called Shield Seniors that teaches senior citizens about online scams, how to recognize them, and how to report them to government agencies.

我亲眼见过骗子怎么坑那些无助的老人，所以她的努力对我来说意义重大。

I've personally witnessed the tactics of scammers preying on vulnerable older people, so her efforts mean a lot to me.

16岁那年，来自南非林波波省的博拉莱·姆帕赫莱发明了一款‘警报耳饰’，专门保护女性和女孩免受袭击。

When she was just 16 years old, Bohlale Mphahlele from Limpopo, South Africa, invented the Alerting Earpiece to protect women and girls from attackers.

在她家乡，性别暴力和人口贩卖很常见，但她看到了问题，就动手去解决。

Unfortunately, gender based violence and human trafficking are common in her country, but she saw a need and did something to help.

博拉莱的发明看起来像耳环，但只要一按按钮，它就会悄悄拍下施暴者的照片，同时把受害者的位置发给警方和信任的人，好让他们赶紧来帮忙。

Bohlale's invention looks like an earring, but when the wearer presses a button on the device, it discreetly takes photos of the assailant and sends the victim's location to police and trusted contacts so they can get help.

真希望这种发明根本不需要存在。

I wish that this type of an invention wasn't necessary.

我是真心希望，以后能有更多人站出来，从根本上阻止这类事情发生。

Like, I sincerely hope more will be done to prevent these kinds of incidents from happening in the first place.

但我觉得这个年轻女孩能做出这样的发明，去保护那些弱势群体，真的太了不起了。

But I think it's incredible that this young woman created an invention that will help protect vulnerable people.

在今年年初意大利米兰-科尔蒂纳举行的冬残奥会上，51岁的塞西尔·埃尔南德斯——一位患有多发性硬化症的残奥单板滑雪运动员——赢得了女子单板滑雪越野赛SBLL2级金牌，成为残奥单板滑雪史上最年长的奖牌得主。

During the most recent Winter Paralympics in Milan, Cortina, Italy, 51 year old Cecile Hernandez, a Paralympian snowboarder with multiple sclerosis, won gold in the Women's Snowboard Cross SBLL two and became the oldest medalist ever in Para snowboard.

这是塞西尔的第四枚奖牌、第二枚金牌，她之前已经参加过前三届冬残奥会并都拿过奖。

It was Cecile's fourth medal and second gold, having also competed and medaled in the past three Winter Paralympics games.

塞西尔用行动证明了，年龄和残疾从来都不是阻碍你前进的理由。

Cecile proved that neither age nor disability have to hold you back.

来自亚利桑那州凤凰城的乔丹·苏卡托，那里夏天温度能飙到48摄氏度以上，他想帮那些流浪狗保护脚掌不被滚烫的路面烫伤。

Jordan Sucato from Phoenix, Arizona, where summer temperatures can exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit or 48 degrees Celsius, wanted to help protect homeless dogs' paws from scorching street pavement.

所以2024年，乔丹创办的非营利组织‘Laws for Paws’启动了‘Bears Boots’项目，至今已筹集数万美元，为两千多只流浪狗提供了九千多双防护鞋。

So in 2024, Jordan's nonprofit Laws for Paws started a project called Bears Boots, and since then, they have raised tens of thousands of dollars to provide more than 9,000 protective shoes for over 2,000 homeless dogs.

现在17岁的乔丹仍在为亚利桑那州的动物权益奔走，推动立法让虐待动物的人承担更重的责任，同时呼吁禁止销售经过动物测试的化妆品。

Jordan, now 17, continues to advocate for animals in her state, pushing for legislation that would hold animal abusers more accountable in Arizona, as well as a ban on the sale of cosmetics that are tested on animals.

我从小在凤凰城附近长大，知道那儿的高温有多可怕、多危险，真的很佩服乔丹为动物做的这些事。

I grew up near Phoenix, so I know how awful and dangerous the heat can get there, and I appreciate Jordan's advocacy for animals.

麦肯娜·麦克·惠瑟姆年仅14岁，就成了美国国家女子足球联赛历史上最年轻的球员。

At just 14, Mckenna Mack Whitham became the youngest player in National Women's Soccer League history.

她被位于纽约和新泽西的哥谭FC队签下。

She was signed by Gotham FC, a team based in New York and New Jersey.

麦肯娜四岁就开始踢球，从小在加州萨克拉门托和洛杉矶的俱乐部球队训练长大。

Mac started playing soccer when she was four years old and grew up training with club teams in Sacramento and Los Angeles, California.

虽然哥谭FC的队友们大多二十多岁、三十多岁，但15岁的麦肯娜在联赛里感觉特别被接纳。

Even though most of her Gotham FC teammates are in their twenties and thirties, Mac, now 15, feels welcome in the league.

就在几周前，麦肯娜被选入美国青年足球协会U17女子国家队，参加2026年中北美及加勒比海U17女足预选赛的最终阶段。

And just a few weeks ago, Mack was called up to play in the US Youth Soccer Under seventeen Women's National Team for the final round of the twenty twenty six Concacaf Women's U17 qualifiers.

球队全胜出线，今年晚些时候将前往摩洛哥参加2026年U17女足世界杯。

The team won all of their matches and is now headed to the twenty twenty six U17 FIFA Women's World Cup in Morocco later this year.

科罗拉多州阿瓦达的马德维·奇图尔从小就了解到，PFAS这种永久性化学物质无处不在——存在于餐具、食物，甚至水和空气里，会对人体健康造成危害。

At a young age, Madhvi Chittoor of Arvada, Colorado learned that PFAS, forever chemicals, are in many things we come in contact withdishes, food, even water and airand they can have negative effects on people's health.

为了保护大家免受PFAS伤害，还在上小学时，马德维就和科罗拉多州参议员丽莎·卡特合作，推动在2022年通过了一项法案，禁止在消费品中故意添加PFAS。

Madhvi wanted to protect people from PFAS, so as a tween, she worked with Colorado State Senator Lisa Cutter to get a bill passed in 2022 that banned intentionally added PFAS from consumer products.

马德维还成功推动了一项州级法案，禁止科罗拉多州的超市和餐厅使用塑料袋和发泡聚苯乙烯餐盒。

Madhvi also got a state bill passed that banned plastic bags and Styrofoam containers in Colorado grocery stores and restaurants.

她被选为联合国儿童权利委员会的儿童顾问，并曾与时任副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯共同参与全球塑料政策倡议。

She was chosen as a child advisor to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, and she worked with then Vice President Kamala Harris on the global plastic policy campaign.

我经常说这句话，现在再强调一遍。

I say it a lot, and I'll say it again.

女孩们，你们从来都不小，完全有能力改变世界。

Girls, you're never too young to make a difference.

我希望这些女孩和女性的故事能激励你坚持追求目标，甚至突破你觉得自己能做到的极限。

I hope that these girls and women empower you to keep working for your goals and reach even farther than you think is possible.
