dé kè sà sī zhōu德克萨斯州yǒu有hěn很duō多huá yì华裔měi guó rén美国人 ，tā men他们zhōng中yǒu xiē有些jiā tíng家庭yǐ jīng已经zài在zhè lǐ这里shēng huó生活le了 150duō nián多年 。
There are many Chinese Americans in Texas, and some families have lived here for over 150 years.
suī rán虽然tā men他们de的gù shì故事bù不xiàng像jiā zhōu加州huò或niǔ yuē纽约de的huá rén华人nà me那么yǒu míng有名 ，dàn但tā men他们duì对měi guó美国lì shǐ历史hěn很zhòng yào重要 。
Although their stories are not as famous as those of Chinese people in California or New York, they are important to American history.
zài在xiū sī dùn休斯顿de的lái sī dà xué莱斯大学 ，yǒu有yí gè一个yà yì亚裔měi guó美国rén人dàng àn guǎn档案馆 ，bǎo cún保存le了hěn很duō多huá yì华裔jiā tíng家庭de的gù shì故事hé和zhào piān照片 。
At Rice University in Houston, there is an Asian American archive that preserves many stories and photos of Chinese American families.
bǐ rú比如 ，ài bó tè · zhū艾伯特·朱shì是yī一wèi位hěn很yǒu míng有名de的huá yì华裔měi guó美国rén人 ，tā他zài在 1960nián dài年代zài在xiū sī dùn休斯顿kāi开le了cān guǎn餐馆 ，hái还bāng zhù帮助le了hěn很duō多xīn新lái来de的yí mín移民 。
For example, Albert Zhu is a well-known Chinese American who opened a restaurant in Houston in the 1960s and helped many new immigrants.
tā他de的jiā rén家人yě也yì zhí一直bāng zhù帮助bié rén别人 ，ràng让gèng更duō多huá rén华人néng能zài在zhè lǐ这里ān jiā安家 。
His family has also always helped others, allowing more Chinese people to settle here.
hái yǒu还有dà wèi · zhū大卫·朱 ，tā他xiǎo shí hòu小时候cóng从zhōng guó中国lái dào来到měi guó美国 ，hòu lái后来yě也zài在xiū sī dùn休斯顿kāi开le了zá huò diàn杂货店 。
There is also David Zhu, who came to the United States from China as a child and later opened a grocery store in Houston.
yǐ qián以前 ，huá rén华人zài在měi guó美国shēng huó生活yǒu有hěn很duō多kùn nán困难 ，bǐ rú比如yǔ yán语言bù tōng不通hé和shòu dào受到qí shì歧视 ，dàn但tā men他们tōng guò通过nǔ lì努力gōng zuò工作 ，màn màn慢慢zài在zhè lǐ这里zhǎo dào找到le了zì jǐ自己de的wèi zhì位置 。
In the past, Chinese people faced many difficulties living in the United States, such as language barriers and discrimination, but through hard work, they gradually found their place here.
xiàn zài现在 ，yuè lái yuè越来越duō多de的rén人kāi shǐ开始liǎo jiě了解hé和xué xí学习zhè xiē这些huá yì华裔měi guó rén美国人de的gù shì故事 ，zhè这duì对dà jiā大家rèn shí认识měi guó美国de的duō yuán多元wén huà文化hěn很yǒu有bāng zhù帮助 。
Now, more and more people are beginning to learn about and understand these stories of Chinese Americans, which helps everyone appreciate America's multiculturalism.
