Sports are ingrained in youth culture in the US.

在美国,体育运动根植于青年文化之中。

Almost every American kid play some sport at least one time in their childhood.

几乎每个美国小孩在童年的某个时期都至少参加过一项体育运动。

I hope to inspire more of that to happen in China.

我希望能鼓舞这样的现象更多地发生在中国。

I played basketball over the summers in China.

我之前在中国过夏天的时候去打篮球。

I was the only girl on the team.

当时我是队里唯一的女孩。

I met a friend in a math class that I was taking during the day.

我在那会儿上的数学课上遇到了一个朋友。

So I was like, hey, you should come to this basketball program that I do at night.

所以我就问她,嗨,晚上和我一起去打篮球吧。

She said okay, whatever.

她说,行啊,反正没事。

So she came and all of a sudden I wasn't the only girl anymore and so we had two girls.

所以她就来了,突然之间我不再是队里唯一的女孩了,现在我们有两个女孩了。

And then every week we'd bring another one, everyone bring another person from the class, until our math class was all playing basketball and my friends from China were all playing basketball.

然后每周我们都会带新的朋友来,大家也会带班上的其他人来,直到后来,我们整个数学班上的人都在打篮球,我在中国的朋友也都来打篮球。

I just want to give more kids the opportunity to try sports because I think that sport culture still has room to grow and so I hope to be a part of that growth.

我只是想给更多小孩尝试体育运动的机会,因为我觉得体育文化还有成长的空间,所以我希望成为这成长的一部分。

I knew that the Olympics were going to be in China and I think that this actually offered a really good opportunity.

当我知道奥运会要在中国举办,我就觉得这其实给了我一个非常好的机会。

Because a lot of people were gonna watch the Olympics, who perhaps hadn't heard of the sport before, look at their TVs and say, hey we're the same age and she's out there doing that, I can too.

因为有很多人会看奥运会,有些人可能以前都没听说过这项运动,但他们看着电视可能会说,看,我和她同龄,她在参加奥运会的这个项目,我也可以。

Standing on the podium it's very symbolic.

站上领奖台的时刻是非常具有象征意义的。

But to me, I think my most emotional moments happen behind the scenes because that's really where the work happens.

但对我来说,最令我激动的时刻发生在幕后,因为那才是一切努力真实发生的地方。

After my halfpipe run, I got a 93.5 or 93 and so I'm just crying on this sled on the way up.

我做完U型池之后,得到了93.5分,还是93分,然后我就在雪橇上哭了起来。

And there's a guy driving the sled.

前面坐着开雪橇车的人。

So I'm like shaking behind, he's like are you okay?

我坐在他后面颤抖,他就问我,你还好吗?

And I'm like I'm great, I'm more than okay, this is the moment I've dreamed of.

我说,我很好,我太好了,这是我梦想中的时刻。

Didn't make any adjustments and I've made it.

我没有做任何调整,最后我成功了。

My routine and the way that I ski and the way that I prepare and the way that I train have remained the same.

我的日常,我滑雪的方式、准备的方式、训练的方式都一如往常。

Because I don't think that should be limited to what country I'm skiing for.

因为我觉得这些不应该受限于我滑雪的国家。

It really just is unique to me.

这对我来说真的很特别。

I think because the sport is international and my whole message is that I want to make sports international.

我觉得这是因为运动是国际化的,我想要传递的全部信息就是,我希望体育运动变得国际化。

When you have an opportunity to try something, always take it.

当你有机会尝试某件事时,一定要试一试。

Because the worst that can happen is you don't like it.

因为最坏的情况不过就是你不喜欢。

Even if that means if you're the only girl in something that you're afraid to do and overcoming speaking up at a board meeting or speaking up in class or sitting next to someone who you normally don't sit next to at lunch.

即使情况是,你是某件你不敢做的事情中唯一的女孩,克服恐惧在董事会上发言、在课堂上发言,或者是午饭时坐在那个你通常不会靠近的人的旁边。

Just kind of encouraging people through my participation in an extreme sport and my participation in an extreme sport in China, competing in China.

我只是想通过参加一项极限运动、在中国参加这项极限运动和在中国参加比赛的方式来鼓励更多的人加入。
