🇺🇸 English

The Trump administration has already commenced the construction of a border wall along a stretch of the Rio Grande in the Big Bend region of West Texas, a move that marks the inaugural undertaking of major construction in this sector of the US-Mexico borderan area where a federal government initiative once encountered vehement resistance.

特朗普政府业已着手在得克萨斯州西部大弯地区的一段边境线上修筑隔离墙此举标志着在该美墨边境地带——一个联邦政府计划曾遭遇强烈抵制的区域——首次展开重大工程建设

The groundbreaking for this project marks a significant milestone for a $46 billion government initiative aimed at constructing a line of defense along the border using walls, barriers, roads, and technology, thereby fulfilling President Donald Trump's key campaign promise to build a border wall.

这一工程的破土动工标志着政府一项总额达460亿美元的计划迎来了重要里程碑——该计划旨在以墙体、屏障、道路及技术手段沿边境线构筑防线从而兑现唐纳德·特朗普总统关于建成边境墙这一关键竞选承诺

This development coincides with the Customs and Border Protection's announcement that its pace of constructing the border wall along the entire U.S.-Mexico border has already doubled.

此番进展恰逢海关与边境保护局表示在整个美墨边境修建边境墙进度已然翻倍

In a statement to reporters, Customs and Border Protection said that "installation of border wall panels is underway," at a construction site spanning a 47-mile stretch in Hudspeth County in western Texas, an area designated as Big Bend 1.

海关与边境保护局在致记者的声明中,“边境墙面板安装正在进行中”,施工地点位于得克萨斯州西部哈德斯佩思县一段绵延47英里的区域该区域被命名为大弯1号

The Big Bend region, which extends roughly 500 miles in total from Hudspeth County south of El Paso all the way to Lake Amistad, is composed of five project areas.

大弯地区总长约500英里自埃尔帕索以南的哈德斯佩思县一路延伸至阿米斯塔德湖由五个项目区共同构成

The agency asserted that the first panels had been erected in place on September 15.

该机构宣称首批面板已于9月15日竖立就位

On a map published on the agency's website and intended to present the progress of construction along the entire southern border wall, a single photograph captured the following scene: a crane hoisting a steel wall panel as tall as 30 feet into position, while construction workers looked on from the sidelines.

在该机构网站上发布旨在呈现整个南部边境墙建设动态的地图上一帧照片定格了这样一幕一台起重机正将一块高达30英尺的钢制墙板吊装到位建筑工人则从旁观望

This new development bears no connection to the border infrastructure project adjacent to Big Bend National Park; the government has temporarily halted construction on that project in the hope of opening a dialogue with its opponents.

这一新动向与毗邻大弯国家公园的边境基础设施项目并无关联;政府已暂时中止该项目的建设,以期与反对者展开沟通。

In the vast expanse of the Big Bend region of Texas, Customs and Border Protection encountered a united front of resistance from landowners, environmental organizations, business owners, and ranchers, who contended that this remote expanse is by no means a high-traffic corridor for the frequent influx of undocumented immigrants.

在得克萨斯州幅员更为辽阔的大弯地区,海关与边境保护局遭遇了土地所有者、环保组织、企业主与牧场主的联合抵制,他们声称,这片偏远地带并非非法移民频繁涌入的高流量区域。

Activists declared on Friday that, even though the panels were already in the process of being installed, they would remain unwavering in their opposition to border infrastructure projects in the remaining stretches of the Big Bend region.

活动人士于周五宣称纵使面板已然处于安装进程之中他们仍将矢志不渝地抵制大弯地区其余地段的边境基础设施项目

Clara Benson, one of the founders of the "No Border Wall in the Big Bend Coalition," said in an interview on Friday that the organization had been receiving persistent reports indicating that trucks were hauling materials to remote stretches along the Rio Grande, while contractors were clearing sites in preparation for storing those materials.

“不要大弯墙联盟”创始人之一克拉拉·本森于周五接受采访时称,该组织持续接获报告,指卡车正将物资运往里奥格兰德河沿岸的偏远地带,而承包商则正在清理场地,以备存放这些物资。

Yet, while meeting with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., alongside other members of the coalition, she declared that the organization and others would remain unwavering in their opposition to the wall project in the region.

然而,她在华盛顿特区偕同联盟其他成员与议员们会晤之际宣称,该组织及其他组织将矢志不渝地在该地区抵制建墙计划。

"Whatever the outcome, we shall remain unwavering in our fight for this land.

无论结局如何我们都将矢志不渝地为这片土地而战

We will fight to the very end," Benson declared.

我们将战斗到底,”本森如是说

"Were you to speak with the people of West Texas, they would assuredly say that even if they get it built, we will strive to have them tear it down.

倘若你与得克萨斯州西部的人交谈他们定会说即便他们将其建成我们也要力争让他们将其拆除

The struggle, therefore, is far from over."

因此这场斗争尚未终结。”

This news emerged as the government was accelerating a plan to fortify the entire length of the border, employing means that encompass thirty-foot steel bollard walls, barriers designed to thwart vehicle crossings, newly built patrol roads, and an array of technological equipment, all intended to deter and detect crossings by migrants or smugglers.

这一消息传出之际,政府正加速推进一项沿整条边境线布防的计划,其手段涵盖30英尺高的钢制柱墙、旨在阻遏车辆越境的屏障、新建巡逻道路及各类技术装备,以威慑并侦查移民或走私者的跨境行为。

U.S. Customs and Border Protection claims that it is erecting barriers along the 2,000-mile Mexican border at an average pace of 12 miles per week, and that it recently reached the milestone of 200 miles of new barrier constructed since the second Trump administration took office.

海关与边境保护局宣称沿绵延2000英里的墨西哥边境平均每周12英里的速度修筑屏障并于近日达成了自第二届特朗普政府履新以来新建200英里屏障的里程碑

The average of 12 miles per week is precisely double the pace cited earlier this year by Rodney Scott, the agency's head.

每周12英里的均值,恰恰是该机构负责人罗德尼·斯科特今年早些时候所提及速度的两倍。

The agency is confronting opposition from multiple quarters: environmental organizations, a small town apprehensive that the border wall will inundate its area, Native Americans who assert that the construction desecrates sacred sites, and landowners who contend that it will encroach upon their property.

该机构正面临多方反对环保组织、一个忧心边境墙将致其地区洪涝的小镇、声称建设亵渎了圣地美洲原住民,以及称建设将侵犯其土地土地所有者

In Texas, the outcry has centred chiefly on the agency's plans for Big Bend National Parka park situated on the Rio Grande in the southwestern corner of the state, which draws visitors from far and wide.

在得克萨斯州反对声浪主要聚焦于该机构针对大弯国家公园的规划——这座坐落于该州西南部里奥格兰德河畔的公园吸引着五湖四海的游客

Beyond the park, however, along the river both upstream and downstream, the overwhelming majority of the land is held by private landowners, not a few of whom are inclined to resist government initiatives.

然而在公园之外河流上下游沿岸绝大部分土地皆为私人土地所有者所持有其中不乏对政府举措予以抵制之人

At the start of this week, landowners, ranchers, and business owners in the Big Bend region, together with a nonprofit organization dedicated to safeguarding the area's landscape and heritage, jointly filed a lawsuit in an effort to block the government's plans.

本周伊始,大弯地区的土地所有者、牧场主与企业主,连同某家矢志守护该地区景观与遗产的非营利组织,共同提起了诉讼,力图阻却政府的相关计划。

Activists and landowners likewise turned out at county meetings, pressing elected officials not to collude with the wall-building contractors hired by Customs and Border Protection, and many landowners went further, refusing to grant government officials or contractors permission to set foot on their land to conduct surveys.
