  Well, in answer to your question, several women actively participated in the Civil War.

  好,作为回答你们的问题,好几位女性积极参与了内战。

  The one that comes immediately to mind is Mary Walker.

  脑海里立刻浮现的一个人是Mary Walker。

  She's important because she's the only woman ever to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.

  她重要是因为她是曾经被授予国会荣誉勋章的唯一的女性。

  As you know, this medal is given to people who've served the United States with exceptional bravery.

  正如你所知道的,这个勋章授予特别勇敢的为美国服过役的人。

  In addition, she was the only female physician in either of the two armies that fought in that war.

  此外,她是那场战争里交战双方的军队中唯一的女性医师。

  Even though she had two medical degrees, many officers made her life difficult because they didn't believe that a woman should be a doctor.

  虽然她有两个医学学位,许多军官还是使她的(军队)生活很艰难,因为他们不认为女性能当医生。

  However, she refused to back down and leave the army.

  然而,她拒绝让步并离开军队。

  In fact, she risked her life several times during the war and was even captured at one point, but she was soon released.

  事实上,她在战争中几次冒着生命危险甚至一度被俘,但她很快被释放了。

  Umm, after the war, she was arrested several times for wearing pants.

  嗯,战后,她因为穿裤子被逮捕数次。

  And although Congress eventually tried to take her medal away, she refused to give it back and continued to wear it wherever she went.

  尽管国会最终试图拿走她的勋章,她拒绝把它交回并且继续无论去哪儿都戴着它

  She died in 1919, a year before women received the right to vote, which brings me to my next point.

  她死于1919年,在女性得到权利去选举(女性获得选举权)的前一年,这引出了我的下一个点。
