2020年10美元紙幣將首次出現女性頭像

The US Treasury Department says a redesigned $10 note will feature a woman, but who she will be has not been decided.
美國財務部稱，重新設計的10美元紙幣上將出現女性形象，但尚未決定具體使用哪位女性。

The new note will debut in 2020 to mark the 100th anniversary of the US Constitution's 19th amendment, which gave women the right to vote.
新紙幣將於2010年發行，以紀念美國憲法第十九修正案出臺100週年。該修正案賦予婦女投票權。

The treasury will seek the public's input in the selection, looking for a "champion for our inclusive democracy".
財政部在選擇上將聽取大衆的意見，想要選出一名“捍衛我們廣泛民主的人”。

Former US political leaders - all white men - currently headline US notes.
目前美國紙幣的頭像是過去的本國政治領袖們，他們全部都是男性。

The woman who the Treasury Department ultimately selects will replace Alexander Hamilton, a key figure in the American Revolution and the first secretary of the US Treasury.
財政部最終選出的女性將代替亞歷山大·漢密爾頓。他是獨立運動的關鍵人物，也是首任財政部部長。

Hamilton began appearing on the $10 note in 1929. He along with diplomat and inventor Ben Franklin are the only non-presidents featured on current US notes.
漢密爾頓的頭像從1929年開始出現在10美元紙幣上。他和外交家、發明家本·富蘭克林是僅有的兩位沒有出任美國總統卻出現在美鈔上的人物。

Women have been featured on US money before, but the notes and coins were not widely used. Most recently women's rights activist Susan B Anthony and Native American Sacagawea appeared on dollar coins, but both coins quickly went out circulation.
之前的美國貨幣上也出現過女性形象，但這些紙幣和硬幣並未得到廣泛使用。最近的兩次是女權主義活動家蘇珊·安東尼和印第安人莎卡嘉薇亞，她們出現在一美元硬幣上，但這些硬幣很快就不再流通。

The primary goal of the redesign is to add measures to thwart counterfeiters, the Treasury Department said. But women's groups have recently pressed for more representation on US notes.
財政部表示，重新設計紙幣的主要目的是爲了加入防僞措施。但女性社團近期施加了更大壓力，要求在紙幣上出現更多女性形象。

"We have only made changes to the faces on our currency a few times since bills were first put into circulation, and I'm proud that the new 10 will be the first bill in more than a century to feature the portrait of a woman," said Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew.
財政部長雅各布·盧表示：“自從紙幣首次進入流通以來，我們只對上面的頭像做了少數幾次改變。新的10美元將是一個多世紀以來首次出現女性頭像的紙幣，我對此感到驕傲。”

In March, an independent group held a contest to select a woman to headline the $20 note, replacing former President Andrew Jackson.
今年三月，某獨立團體組織了一項比賽，選擇一名女性來代替安德魯·傑克遜總統出現在20美元紙幣上。

Abolitionist Harriet Tubman was the public's top choice, beating out finalists, former first lady Eleanor Roosevelt, civil rights activist Rosa Parks and leader of the Cherokee nation Wilma Mankiller.
廢奴主義者哈麗特·塔布曼擊敗了前第一夫人埃莉諾·羅斯福、民權活動家羅薩·帕克斯和切羅基部落領導人威爾瑪·曼奇勒等決賽對手，成爲了公衆的首選。

Tubman was known as the "conductor" of the Underground Railroad that allowed many slaves to escape to freedom in the 1850s.
19世紀50年代，塔布曼幫助許多奴隸獲得自由，被稱爲祕密鐵路的列車員。

Mr Lew will make a decision about the selected woman by the end of year.
財政部長盧將在今年年底決定選擇哪位女性。
