據(jù)美媒報(bào)道，針對(duì)日益高漲的反亞裔情緒，著名的娃娃制造商“美國(guó)女孩”公司宣布了該公司史上第一個(gè)亞裔“年度女孩”——科琳·譚。據(jù)該公司介紹，科琳來(lái)自科羅拉多州阿斯彭，喜歡滑雪，正在鼓起勇氣回?fù)簟俺鹜庋哉摗薄?br>

American Girl has revealed its first ever “Girl of the Year” of Chinese descent as advocates call for more steps to combat challenges some children face amid an increase in anti-Asian hate incidents that have occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic.
新冠疫情期間，針對(duì)亞裔的仇恨事件增多，在該背景下，美國(guó)女孩公司宣布了有史以來(lái)它的第一個(gè)華裔“年度女孩”，以此呼吁采取更多措施幫助一些兒童應(yīng)對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)。

More than 10,300 hate incidents against Asian Americans have been reported between March 19, 2020 and September 30, 2021, according to Stop AAPI Hate, a coalition that tracks the incidents.
追蹤亞裔仇恨事件的“停止仇恨亞太裔美國(guó)人”組織稱(chēng)，在2020年3月19日至2021年9月30日之間，已經(jīng)報(bào)告超過(guò)10300起針對(duì)亞裔美國(guó)人的仇恨事件。

The Mattel-owned company announced last week that its 2022 doll is named Corinne Tan, who is an avid skier from Colorado who is adjusting to changes after her parent's divorce.
美泰旗下“美國(guó)女孩”公司上周宣布，其2022年度玩偶名為科琳·譚，她來(lái)自科羅拉多州，酷愛(ài)滑雪，正在適應(yīng)父母離婚后的變化。

She's proud of her heritage and is trying to find "courage to speak up when faced with xenophobic comments," like being told she has "Kung flu," a racist reference to COVID-19, according to a statement from the company.
據(jù)該公司聲明介紹，科琳·譚對(duì)自己的血統(tǒng)感到自豪，并試圖“勇敢直面仇外言論”，例如，有人說(shuō)她得了“功夫流感（一個(gè)帶有種族歧視的新冠病毒表述）”時(shí)。

Her backstory, like many "Girl of the Year" dolls, is timely: Reports of racist remarks and deadly violence against Asian and Asian Americans increased dramatically as the coronavirus began spreading across the nation in March 2020 and some people, including former President Donald Trump, blamed China for the pandemic.
科琳的身份背景和許多“年度女孩”玩偶一樣緊跟時(shí)事：2020年3月新冠病毒開(kāi)始在美國(guó)傳播，隨之而來(lái)的是針對(duì)亞洲人和亞裔美國(guó)人的種族主義言論和致命暴力事件的報(bào)告急劇增加，而包括美國(guó)前總統(tǒng)唐納德·特朗普在內(nèi)的一些人指責(zé)中國(guó)是此次疫情的罪魁禍?zhǔn)住?/p>

Development of the doll's backstory started in early 2020, but as the pandemic began to spread the company decided to address what girls like Corinne might experience, including the rise in anti-Asian sentiment, by working with experts and advisers who weighed in on the authenticity and accuracy of key products, the company said in a statement to USA TODAY.
該公司在《今日美國(guó)》發(fā)布聲明稱(chēng)，科琳的背景故事開(kāi)發(fā)始于2020年初，但隨著新冠疫情開(kāi)始蔓延，該公司決定通過(guò)與專(zhuān)家和顧問(wèn)合作，對(duì)主要產(chǎn)品的真實(shí)性和準(zhǔn)確性進(jìn)行評(píng)估，解決像科琳這樣的女孩可能經(jīng)歷的問(wèn)題，如仇恨亞裔情緒的上升。

Author Wendy Wan-Long Shang was among those who helped craft the character.
作家Wendy Wan-Long Shang參與了科琳的角色創(chuàng)作。

“What I really hope is that there is some part of Corinne’s story that makes readers feel seen, whether it’s because they are Asian American, or because they’re part of a blended family, or because they love skiing," Shang said in a statement. "I think when readers feel seen, they realize that they matter and their experiences matter, and that they are meant to be the stars of their own stories!”
她在一份聲明中表示：“我真心希望科琳的一些故事能讓讀者感到被關(guān)注，不管是因?yàn)樗麄兪莵喴崦绹?guó)人，還是因?yàn)樗麄儊?lái)自繼親家庭，或者因?yàn)樗麄儫釔?ài)滑雪。我認(rèn)為，當(dāng)讀者感到被關(guān)注時(shí)，他們就會(huì)意識(shí)到他們很重要，他們的經(jīng)歷也很重要，他們應(yīng)該成為自己故事的主角！”

Toymakers, including Mattel, have been working to create more inclusive products in recent years. In 2020, American Girl's "Girl of the Year" was Joss Kendrick, a 10-year-old surfer and competitive cheerleader who uses a hearing aid, the company's first-ever doll with a disability.
近年來(lái)，美泰等玩具制造商一直在努力創(chuàng)造更具包容性的產(chǎn)品。2020年，美國(guó)女孩的“年度女孩”是喬斯·肯德里克，10歲的沖浪愛(ài)好者和競(jìng)賽拉拉隊(duì)隊(duì)長(zhǎng)，她佩戴助聽(tīng)器，是該公司第一個(gè)殘疾人娃娃。
