双语新闻：最新的国际学生评估项目结果显示:全球学生数学、阅读成绩下降
Students around the world suffered historic setbacks in reading and math during the COVID-19 pandemic. That information comes from results of the latest Program for International Student Assessment (PISA).
在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间，世界各地的学生在阅读和数学方面遭遇了历史性挫折。这一信息来自最新的国际学生评估项目(PISA)的结果。
The PISA is an international comparative study of the scores of 15-year-old students on tests in reading, math and science. Nearly 700,000 students took part in the study.
国际学生评估项目是对15岁学生在阅读、数学和科学测试中的成绩进行国际比较研究。近70万名学生参与了这项研究。
PISA is administered every three years. The latest results showed an "unprecedented drop in performance" since 2018.
PISA每三年举办一次。最新结果显示，自2018年以来，“业绩出现了前所未有的下滑”。
The PISA 2022 study was supposed to happen in 2021. But it was postponed because of the pandemic. The 2022 results were released on December 5. It is the first extensive study with data on how the pandemic has affected student performance around the world.
PISA 2022研究本应在2021年进行。但由于疫情，会议被推迟了。2022年大选结果于12月5日公布。这是第一次对疫情如何影响世界各地学生表现的数据进行广泛研究。
The study looked at 81 education systems. They include 37 member countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). OECD has been administering the test since 2000.
这项研究调查了81个教育系统。这些国家包括经济合作与发展组织(OECD)的37个成员国。自2000年以来，经合组织一直在进行这项测试。
Decreasing scores
降低分数
The study found decreasing test scores in both rich and poor countries.
研究发现，富国和穷国的考试成绩都在下降。
Andreas Schleicher is the director for education and skills at OECD. He said, "The world is no longer divided between rich and well-educated countries and poor and badly educated countries."
Andreas Schleicher是经合组织教育和技能主管。他说:“世界不再分为教育程度高的富国和教育程度低的穷国。”
The study found the average international math score fell by 15 points since 2018. Reading scores across participating countries fell by 10 points. The OECD considers 20 points to be equal to one year of learning. Scores did not change in a major way in science.
该研究发现，自2018年以来，国际平均数学成绩下降了15分。参与调查的国家的阅读成绩下降了10分。经合组织认为20分相当于一年的学习。科学方面的分数没有发生重大变化。
Albania saw the biggest decrease in math scores, with a massive 69-point decrease. That means Albanian students lost more than three years of learning. Many countries fell by more than one year's worth of learning in math, including Germany, Iceland and the Netherlands.
阿尔巴尼亚的数学成绩下降幅度最大，下降了69分。这意味着阿尔巴尼亚学生失去了三年多的学习时间。包括德国、冰岛和荷兰在内的许多国家的数学学习时间下降了一年多。

一些好消息
Four places did improve their performance between PISA 2018 and 2022 in all three subjects: Brunei, Cambodia, the Dominican Republic and Taiwan.
从2018年到2022年，四个地方在所有三个科目上的表现都有所提高:文莱、柬埔寨、多米尼加共和国和台湾。
Six East Asian education systems outperformed all other countries in math. Scores in Singapore were measurably higher than all other countries in all three subjects.
6个东亚国家的教育体系在数学方面优于其他所有国家。新加坡学生在这三个科目上的得分明显高于其他所有国家。
The math scores for U.S. students were about even with the international average. Science and reading were slightly higher.
美国学生的数学成绩与国际平均水平持平。科学和阅读的比例略高。
Effects of the pandemic
大流行的影响
The COVID-19 pandemic was a major reason for the worldwide score drops. But science and reading scores were dropping even before the pandemic. This suggests there are other reasons for the decrease.
新冠肺炎大流行是全球得分下降的主要原因。但科学和阅读成绩甚至在大流行之前就在下降。这表明，这种下降还有其他原因。
Factors such as the level of investment in education, the social value and pay levels of teachers, and educational beliefs of students have all influenced educational results, the OECD's Schleicher said.
经合组织的施莱歇尔说，教育投资水平、教师的社会价值和薪酬水平、学生的教育信念等因素都影响着教育结果。
Purpose of PISA
PISA的目的
The PISA tests explore how well students can solve complex problems, think critically and communicate effectively.
PISA测试考察学生解决复杂问题、批判性思考和有效沟通的能力。
The goal of PISA is to provide useful information to educators and policymakers on the strengths and weaknesses of their country's education system.
PISA的目标是为教育工作者和政策制定者提供有用的信息，了解他们国家教育系统的优势和劣势。
OECD Secretary-General Mathias Cormann released the latest PISA results in Paris. He said, "PISA 2022 helps to identify the comparative strengths of education systems that have performed well despite recent shocks."
经合组织秘书长马蒂亚斯·科曼在巴黎公布了最新的PISA结果。他说，“PISA 2022有助于确定尽管最近受到冲击，但表现良好的教育体系的相对优势。”
Policymakers can use such information to consider reforms to education systems for a brighter, more financially successful future, Cormann added.
科尔曼补充说，政策制定者可以利用这些信息考虑改革教育系统，以创造一个更光明、更成功的未来。
The study also reported on the fast-changing influence of technology on educational performance. The results found that moderate use of electronic devices in school is connected to higher performance.
该研究还报告了科技对教育表现的快速变化的影响。结果发现，在学校适度使用电子设备与更高的表现有关。
