This is in Cambodia when kids are seeing water come out of the ground for the first time in their lives. Also in Cambodia.
这是在柬埔寨，孩子们有生以来第一次看到水从地下冒出来。这还是在柬埔寨。

This is in Indonesia where women who were watching their kids suffer from malnutrition.
这是在印度尼西亚，妇女眼睁睁看着自己的孩子饱受营养不良之苦。

These are salt workers which is one of the toughest jobs and it mostly is done by young girls and women.
这些是盐工，这是最艰苦的工作之一，主要由年轻女孩和妇女完成。

And I was with them, you know, with a health organization because the salt takes a terrible toll on their little bodies.
我当时和她们在一起，和一个健康组织一起，因为盐对他们幼小的身体造成了严重的伤害。

Annie Griffiths has thousands of photographs she has taken all around the world, one of the first female photographers at the famous national Geographic magazine.
安妮·格里菲思在世界各地拍摄了数千张照片，是著名的《国家地理》杂志首批女摄影师之一。

In the span of 45 years, she has traveled to over 150 countries and all seven continents.
在45年的时间里，她去过150多个国家，足迹遍布七大洲。

I've always felt that being a woman was an advantage in my job, both initially getting into photo journalism, and then recognizing that I had half the world pretty much to myself.
我一直觉得，作为女性在我的工作中是一种优势，无论是最初进入新闻摄影领域，还是后来意识到我几乎独享了半个世界。

I spent about five years doing projects in the Middle East, and many parts of the Middle East and many aspects of their culture are gender separate.
我花了大约五年时间在中东做项目，中东的许多地区及其文化的许多方面都是性别分离的。

I think that is judged often by the western world, but there again is an opportunity to actually look at it from the women's point of view.
我认为西方世界常常对此作出评判，但实际上这也是一个从女性视角去看待它的机会。

The women caught by Griffiths' camera survived natural disasters and migrations, discrimination, war, epidemics and famine.
格里菲斯镜头捕捉到的这些女性经历了自然灾害、迁徙、歧视、战争、流行病和饥荒后幸存了下来。

But she says despite it all, they keep the traditions alive, raise children,grieveand just leave.
但她说，尽管经历了这一切，他们依然让传统得以延续，养育子女，承受悲伤，然后悄然离去。

So the stories I focus on are where women have found solutions.
我关注的故事是女性找到解决办法的地方。

It's usually because they come together as a group, and as a group they figure out how to do something better.
通常是因为他们以团队形式聚集在一起，并且作为一个团队，他们共同想出如何把事情做得更好。

They're the ones planting millions of trees. They're the ones who are you know staying till the last minute after the men leave, and then shepherding their children and sometimes their parents.
她们种植了数百万棵树。她们会在男人离开后，一直坚守到最后一刻，照顾她们的孩子，有时也照顾她们的父母。

She believes women don't like being victims, and remain hopeful in the grimmest of circumstances.
她认为女性不喜欢成为受害者，并且在最严峻的情况下仍保持着希望。

And that was the reason why Griffiths decided to found the charity projectRippleEffect Images that founds programs for women in developing countries.
这就是格里菲思决定创办慈善项目“RippleEffect Images”的原因，该项目旨在为发展中国家的女性设立各类援助计划。

The idea came to her nine years ago when Griffiths saw the data from the United States Agency for International Development on humanitarian aid.
九年前，当格里菲思看到美国国际开发署有关人道主义援助的数据时，这个想法便在她脑海中萌生了。

Two cents out of every American aid dollar went to programs for women, so 98 went to men's programs.
每1美元美国援助资金中，只有2美分用于女性项目，其余98美分则用于男性项目。

So I literally called my girl friends who are some of the best photographers in the world, and said, "Look, why don't we learn from the women we observe in the wider world?"
我打电话给我那些身为世界顶级摄影师的女性朋友们，然后说：“我们为什么不从在更广阔世界中观察到的女性身上学习呢？”

They reported raising over 10 million dollars just in those first six years. So it works you know when you humanize a situation.
她们报告说仅仅在最初的六年里就筹集了超过1000万美元。当你将情况人性化处理时，这是行得通的。

So you don't talk about the women of Morocco. You show a woman from Morocco and you see the light in her eyes.
你不用去谈论摩洛哥的女性，你只要展示一位摩洛哥女性，然后你就能看到她眼中的光芒。

But work is not all Griffiths focuses on. She is the mother of two children, and from the very start she promised herself to never part with them for more than two weeks.
但工作并非格里菲斯生活的全部。她已是两个孩子的母亲，从最初她就向自己承诺，绝不与孩子们分开超过两周。

Most of her work trips with National Geographic lasted at least three months.
她在《国家地理》工作时的大部分行程至少持续了三个月。

So like their mother, Griffiths's children saw dozens of countries and met thousands of people.
像他们的母亲一样，格里菲思的孩子们游览了几十个国家，结识了成千上万的人。

I've been traveling with my mom since I was just in her belly, so we've picked up a few stories over the years.
从我还在妈妈肚子里的时候起，我就和她一起旅行了，这些年来我们积累了不少故事。

We've been to some really remarkable places, feel real highlights over the years.
这些年来，我们去过一些非常了不起的地方，真切地感受到了那些精彩时刻。

I think that the Middle East is always gonna be really special to me.
我觉得中东对我来说永远都会非常特别。

In 2008, Griffiths published a book of photo memoirs called A Camera, Two Kids and a Camel that focused on how to reach harmony between work, family and the whole wide world.
2008年，格里菲思出版了一本名为A Camera, Two Kids and a Camel的摄影回忆录，该书聚焦于如何在工作、家庭和整个世界之间达成和谐。

I can already see that you don't like it. Look, I would just start over. How about that? Okay.
我已经知道你不喜欢了。我会重新开始的。怎么样？可以。

Hi, my name is Taylor as you know, and this is the tear drop from the orange sky. No momma, it isn't like that at all.
嗨，我叫泰勒，这是橙色天空之泪。不，妈妈 ，根本不是那样的。

Dude, I've got to tell you what happened at old man Fletcher's class the other day. I mean this, this is insane.
伙计，我得跟你说前几天在弗莱彻老头课上发生的事儿。这简直太疯狂了。

So Drive Thru Drama, it's kind of like a Disney ride without the scary animatronics. It's driving and stopping at each actor. It's a live actor.
得来速戏剧秀有点像没有吓人电子动画的迪士尼游乐项目。你只需要开车在每个演员面前停下，都是现场表演的演员。

They perform a monologue where there are 10 stations and it all comes together to make one story.
他们表演一段独白，一共有十站，连起来是一个完整的故事。

I came across something I had learned about in theater history called medieval pageant wagons which was common at the time where actors would be on a wagon and they would do their scene and then it would move to the next town or to the next group of audience members.
我偶然在戏剧史中发现了中世纪巡游彩车，这在当时很常见，演员们会站在彩车上表演剧目，然后彩车会移动到下一个城镇或下一批观众面前。

So, I sort of took that idea and flipped it, where the actor stays in one place and then the audience drives around and hears the rest of the story.
我就借鉴了这个想法并把它反过来，让演员待在一个地方，然后观众开车四处转，听故事的其余部分。

I was a banker. I've never done anything like this. I don't know that there's ever been anything like this to do before.
我曾是一名银行家。我从未做过这样的事，也不知道还有这样的形式。

So, it's kind of like some of the things but still it's not. It's entirely different.
可能曾经听说过类似的东西，但又完全不同。

Part of my job was I would sort through the money and decide if money couldn't be used anymore.
我的部分工作是清点这些钱，并决定哪些钱不能再使用了。

It's in the game. Okay? All Right. You know, I have a help cushion but it's not enough.
我正在游戏中。我有一个缓冲的时间，但根本就不够。

Okay, listen. I think we ought to cut our losses, like try to outlast until maybe second place and then…..
我认为我们应该及时止损，比如试着坚持到也许第二名...

We've never done anything like this before but I'm really looking forward to it.
我们以前完全没有看过这种表演，但我真的很期待。

We both love theater and any chance to go and see live theater, I was excited about because there hasn't been much this year.
我们俩都热爱戏剧，只要有机会去看现场戏剧演出，我都会很兴奋，因为今年这样的机会并不多。

Well, I thought when Danielle came to me and said, "I want to do a show," my mind went to monologues.
当丹妮尔来找我说“我想搞一个演出”的时候，我的脑海里浮现的是独白。

My mind went to plays that are traditionally told by one person at a time, a one-person show but spread out over 10 people.
我想起来以前那种一个人讲一个部分的表演，这依然是独角戏，但把整个故事分配给了10个人。

And I thought I guess that's possible to do 10 disparate stories that are all linked around one thing, which in this case is a dollar bill with some writing on it.
我觉得我们可以讲10个不同的故事，但是这些故事都围绕的是一个主线，在这个例子中就是一张写有字的美元钞票。

Make a small change and those sound like pretty big changes to me, pal.
做个小小的改变，对我来说就是很大的改变，伙计。

Yes, I am going to cue you. So, this car needs to get over to the second actor. They'll be there for just a few moments.
我要告诉你们怎么走了。 现在你们的车要开去第二个演员那里。他们只会在那里停留片刻。

I'm trying to pace it so there's no accordion happening on the back side. I'll let you wait it from there.
我正试着控制节奏，这样后面就不会出现起伏不平的情况了。我会让你从那里等着看后续。

This is, I don't know, it looks really fun. You know, and we do like to go to things like this.
我不知道，这看起来真的很有趣。我们确实喜欢参加这样的活动。

She had a, battery is dead in her car. I ran the air conditioning during the last half hour without the car on.
她车里的电池没电了。我在没有启动汽车的情况下开了半小时空调。

When they're done, they're going to give you a little bit of a bow.
他们表演完之后会微微鞠躬。

There's a chance for you to give a little clap and you may move on from there to the next.
这个时候你可以鼓掌，然后开到下一个演员那里。

I feel that us, as the white community, that we hold a very strong responsibility to speak up and be heard.
我觉得我们白人群体肩负着重大责任去表达和发声。

My name is Jeremiah Hirsch and I am the owner of Electric Pair O' Dice Tattoo in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
我叫杰里迈亚·赫希，是弗吉尼亚州弗雷德里克斯堡“Electric Pair O' Dice Tattoo”的老板。

Erase the hate is a campaign that we put together to cover up racist and offensive tattoos.
“消除仇恨”是我们发起的一项活动，旨在遮盖种族主义和冒犯性纹身。

I started to post information and stuff to raise awareness about Black Lives Matter and towards the Black community.
我开始发帖来提高人们对“黑人的命也是命”运动以及黑人社区的认识。

And in doing so, I had a gentleman that I went to high school with that reached out to me about having a Confederate flag tattoo on his foot that he was embarrassed of and it was hitting him even harder seeing the stuff that I was posting.
在此期间，一位高中同学联系了我，他说自己脚上有个邦联军旗的文身，这让他很尴尬，看了我发的帖子后更是自惭形秽。

And he asked if we would work with him on covering it up.
他问我愿不愿意帮他遮掉这个纹身。

So I went to the guys in the shop and I was like, I think this would be a really good opportunity for us to help this guy out and cover it up, document it and then post it and then launch this campaign of Erase the hate.
然后我就到店里去跟员工说，我觉得这对我们来说是个绝佳的机会，我们可以帮他遮盖纹身，把这件事记录下来，然后发布出去，接着发起“消除仇恨”的活动。

I want to cover up this tattoo that I got a long time ago. I'm getting rid of this heart here with this Confederate flag in it.
我想遮掉这个很久以前的纹身。我正在去除这个带有邦联旗帜的心形纹身。

The tattoo is free but we ask for a minimum donation for $100 that will go to one of the organizations that we're working with, that goes directly to the Black community.
遮掉纹身是免费的，但我们要求至少捐助100美元，这笔钱将捐给我们合作的一个组织，然后直接流向黑人社区。

People have really been behind what we're doing. I mean you do have some, like, a handful that are, like, against it.
人们一直在背后支持我们的行动。确实有那么一小撮人反对这件事。

Their argument is that it's heritage, not hate and that it's a symbolism of, you know, state freedom and stuff like that.
他们声称这种南方联邦的纹身是文化遗产，而非仇恨，而且是各州自由的标志。

But I feel, you know, not to be disrespectful, but I feel at the same time they're not very educated in the history of what it's behind and what it stands for and what the different declarations of the Confederacy was for. It was to keep and instill slavery.
说句难听的，我觉得他们对这些事物背后的历史、代表的意义以及南方联邦各种主张的目的都不太了解。邦联的目的就是维护和巩固奴隶制。

From my own experience and convictions that I've had, just seeing daily interactions and stuff like that, showed me my privilege.
从我个人的经历和信念来看，仅仅是观察日常的互动之类的事情，就让我意识到了自己的特权。

Being a white male in America and seeing the unjust acts and treatment towards the Black community and the huge difference between those two.
作为一名美国白人男性，我看到了针对黑人社区的不公正行为和待遇，以及这两个群体之间存在的巨大差异。

I wanted to get involved as much as I could. So I started actively going to protests.
我想尽可能多地参与进来。 所以我开始积极参加黑人抗议活动。

I'm a single dad with four kids and I've always led by an example that we see someone by their heart and their actions and that love is love, that it's universal.
我是一个单身父亲，有四个孩子，我一直以身作则，告诉孩子们要通过一个人的内心和行为去看待他们，爱就是爱，大爱无疆。

Everything deserves a chance and the opportunity to live and be loved.
万物都值得拥有生存和被爱的机会。

My upbringing, my parents were preachers and was raised in the Christian faith and as I got older and ventured out on my own, I experienced other religions and stuff.
在我的成长经历中，我的父母都是传教士，我是在基督教信仰的熏陶下长大的，随着我年龄增长并开始独自探索，也接触到了其他宗教。

I really connected with Buddhist and Hindu traditions and really found this parallel between religions and understanding that the universal importance is empathy, love and compassion.
我真的与佛教和印度教传统产生了共鸣，并且确实发现了不同宗教之间的相似之处，也明白了共情、爱和慈悲具有普世的重要性。

And then I see this connection between them and between human beings as a whole, and that being present here in this moment and where we are as a nation, is very important that we need this progressive push forward for equality for every human being that's on this planet, especially the Black community where they're affected most.
然后我看到了宗教之间以及全人类之间的联系，此时此刻我们身处此地，作为一个民族，我们需要为地球上每一个人争取平等而不断向前推进，这一点非常重要，尤其是对受影响最大的黑人社区来说。

Dear tourists and friends:
亲爱的游客朋友们：

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Yellow River Waterfall Tourist Area in Shaanxi Province. I am your tour guide. It is a great honor to enjoy this magnificent natural wonder with you.
大家好！欢迎大家来到陕西省黄河瀑布旅游区，我是你们的导游，非常荣幸能与大家一同领略这雄浑壮阔的自然奇观。

The Yellow River, as the mother river of the Chinese nation, not only gave birth to the splendid Chinese civilization but also created many breathtaking landscapes, and the Yellow River Waterfall is one of the most brilliant pearls among them.
黄河，作为中华民族的母亲河，它不仅孕育了灿烂的华夏文明，还造就了许多令人叹为观止的景观，而黄河瀑布就是其中最为璀璨的一颗明珠。

Before you approach the waterfall, you can hear the thunderous roar, as if the Yellow River is telling us its thousand-year-old stories. The closer you get to the waterfall, the louder the sound. The shocking power seems to penetrate your soul.
当您还未走近瀑布，就能听到那如雷般的轰鸣声，仿佛是黄河在向我们诉说着它千年的故事。越靠近瀑布，声音越大，那震撼人心的力量仿佛能穿透您的灵魂。

Finally, the Yellow River Waterfall is presented before us. The waterfall is about 50 meters wide and has a drop of more than 30 meters. The surging Yellow River water rushes down from the cliffs, like a giant dragon breaking free and flowing thousands of miles. The splashing water mist fills the air, forming a hazy fairyland.
终于，黄河瀑布展现在我们眼前。瀑布宽约 50 米，落差高达 30 多米，滔滔黄河水从悬崖峭壁上奔腾而下，犹如一条巨龙挣脱束缚，一泻千里，溅起的水雾弥漫在空中，形成了一片朦胧的仙境。

Standing by the side of the waterfall, you will be shocked by its majestic momentum. The Yellow River water comes with tremendous force, splashing water and roaring waves. Every drop of water seems to contain endless power, and every wave is telling the heroism of the Yellow River. This kind of power makes people marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature.
站在瀑布边上，您会被那磅礴的气势所震撼。黄河水以万钧之力汹涌而来，水花四溅，涛声震天。每一滴水珠都仿佛蕴含着无尽的力量，每一道浪花都在诉说着黄河的豪迈。这种力量，让人不禁感叹大自然的鬼斧神工。

Below the waterfall is a huge deep pool. The pool water is green and deep, forming a sharp contrast to the yellow color of the Yellow River water. Around the deep pool, there are strangely shaped rocks. Some are like fierce beasts, and some are like kind old people. They seem to be specially arranged here by nature to form a magical picture together with the waterfall.
瀑布的下方是一个巨大的深潭，潭水碧绿幽深，与黄河水的黄色形成了鲜明的对比。深潭周围怪石嶙峋，有的像凶猛的野兽，有的像慈祥的老人，它们仿佛是大自然特意安排在这里，与瀑布共同构成了一幅神奇的画卷。

In different seasons, the Yellow River Waterfall has different charms. In spring, as the ice and snow melt, the water volume of the waterfall gradually increases. The waterfall is like thousands of horses galloping, with a magnificent momentum. In summer, with abundant rainfall, the Yellow River water is surging. The roar of the waterfall is even more deafening, and the water mist is everywhere, making people feel as if they are in a fairyland. In autumn, with the clear sky and white clouds, the waterfall looks even more magnificent against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds. In winter, there will be peculiar landscapes such as ice hanging and ice waterfall around the waterfall, like an ice and snow world.
在不同的季节，黄河瀑布有着不同的魅力。春季，冰雪消融，瀑布水量逐渐增大，瀑布如万马奔腾，气势恢宏；夏季，雨水充沛，黄河水汹涌澎湃，瀑布的轰鸣声更加震耳欲聋，水雾弥漫，让人仿佛置身于仙境之中；秋季，天高云淡，瀑布在蓝天白云的映衬下，显得更加壮美；冬季，瀑布周围会出现冰挂、冰瀑等奇特景观，宛如一个冰雪世界。

The Yellow River Waterfall is not only a natural landscape but also carries rich historical and cultural connotations. Since ancient times, countless literati and poets have left magnificent poems here. "The water of the Yellow River comes down from the heaven and rushes to the sea never to return," Li Bai's poem vividly depicts the majestic momentum of the Yellow River.
黄河瀑布不仅是一道自然景观，还承载着丰富的历史文化内涵。自古以来，无数文人墨客在此留下了壮丽的诗篇。“黄河之水天上来，奔流到海不复回”，李白的诗句生动地描绘了黄河的雄伟气势。

In addition, the Yellow River Waterfall is also a symbol of the Chinese national spirit. Its momentum of moving forward bravely and never retreating inspires generations of Chinese people. During the Anti-Japanese War, the roar of the Yellow River Waterfall was like the cry of the Chinese nation against foreign enemies, inspiring people's patriotic enthusiasm and fighting spirit.
此外，黄河瀑布还是中华民族精神的象征。它那勇往直前、永不退缩的气势，激励着一代又一代的中华儿女。在抗日战争时期，黄河瀑布的怒吼仿佛是中华民族抵抗外敌的呐喊，激发着人们的爱国热情和战斗精神。

While enjoying the waterfall, you can also taste the local specialties. For example, the mutton noodles in northern Shaanxi. The noodles are chewy, the mutton is tender, and the soup is rich and unforgettable. There are also local red dates, which are big, thick-fleshed, sweet and delicious, and nutritious.
在观赏瀑布的同时，大家还可以品尝到当地的特色美食。比如，陕北的羊肉面，面条劲道，羊肉鲜嫩，汤汁浓郁，让人回味无穷。还有当地的红枣，个大肉厚，香甜可口，营养丰富。

To allow you to better appreciate the waterfall, there are several viewing platforms here. You can choose different angles according to your preferences to view this wonder.
为了让大家能够更好地欣赏瀑布，这里还设有多个观景台。大家可以根据自己的喜好选择不同的角度来观赏这一奇观。

During the tour, please pay attention to safety, do not approach dangerous areas, andabideby the regulations of the scenic area. At the same time, take care of the environment and do not litter. Let's jointly protect this beautiful natural landscape.
在游览过程中，请大家注意安全，不要靠近危险区域，遵守景区的规定。同时，也要爱护环境，不要乱扔垃圾，让我们共同保护这美丽的自然景观。

I hope everyone will have a pleasant and unforgettable time in the Yellow River Waterfall Tourist Area and leave wonderful memories!
希望大家在黄河瀑布旅游区度过一段愉快而难忘的时光，留下美好的回忆！

Thank you all!
谢谢大家！
