On the residential streets of Flushing, Queens, and Sunset Park, Brooklyn, steel fences line almost every other house. They’re silver, sometimesembellishedwith gold, and they’rein striking contrast tothe modest brick and vinyl-clad houses that they encircle, like a diamond necklace worn atop an old white T-shirt.
在皇后区法拉盛和布鲁克林日落公园的住宅区街道上，走几步就能见到一座安装了不锈钢栅栏的房子。栅栏是银色的，有时还点缀着金色，与它们身后环绕的那些砖砌和覆盖乙烯基壁板的不起眼房屋形成鲜明对比，就像穿白色旧T恤的人戴上一条钻石项链。
Like the white picket fence, long a symbol of the so-called American dream, the stainless steel fence embodies a similar sense of making it. But the steel fence is not muted or uniform; it twists and turns to the taste of the maker,personalizedwith various ornaments, including lotus flowers, “om” symbols and geometric patterns.
长期以来，白色尖桩栅栏一直是所谓美国梦的象征，不锈钢栅栏也体现了类似的成就感。但钢栅栏并不柔和，也不统一；它会根据制作者的口味进行种种改变，用各种装饰品进行个性化处理，包括莲花、“om”符号和几何图案。
At night, street lamps and car headlights exaggerate theglimmerof stainless steel that does not, cannot disappear into the darkness likewrought iron. Whereas some people might be turned off by the flashiness, standing out is exactly its point — the stainless steel fence is an undeniable signal that the homeowner has arrived.
在夜晚，路灯和车灯会放大不锈钢的光芒，它不会像锻铁那样消失在黑暗中。翻译划线句，长按文末小程序码打卡，答案下期公布~
The rise of these fences — commonly found on single-family houses but also surrounding restaurants, churches, doctors’ offices and more — parallels the growth of Asian Americans in New York. Last year, the city’s Office of Immigrant Affairs reported that Asians and Pacific Islanders are the city’s fastest growing racial group, increasing primarily by a surge in immigration.
这些栅栏的流行——通常出现在独栋房屋周边，也出现在餐馆、教堂、医生办公室等建筑周围——与纽约亚裔美国人的增长同步。去年，纽约市移民事务办公室报告，亚裔和太平洋岛民是该市增长最快的种族群体，主要是由于移民激增。
In 2010, there were more than 750,000 Asian and Pacific Islander immigrants in New York, and by 2019, that number grew to nearly 845,000. The city also found that more than half of those immigrants lived in Queens. Correspondingly, Mr. Campanella estimates that stainless steel fences started to take off in New York during the same time frame.
2010年，纽约有超过75万亚裔和太平洋岛民移民，到2019年，这一数字增加到近84.5万。该市还发现，这些移民中有一半以上住在皇后区。相应地，坎帕内拉估计，不锈钢栅栏也在同一时期开始在纽约兴起。
