2018年美國校園槍擊案數(shù)量破紀(jì)錄

This year, 113 people have been killed or injured in school shootings in the United States.

今年，美國共有113人在校園槍擊事件中喪生或受傷。

That's the sobering finding of a project to count the annual toll of gun attacks in schools.

該數(shù)據(jù)來自一個計算學(xué)校每年槍支襲擊數(shù)量的項目，這是個發(fā)人深省的發(fā)現(xiàn)。

At the beginning of 2018, Education Week, a journal covering education in the US, began to track school shootings -- and has since recorded 23 incidents where there were deaths or injuries.

2018年初，美國教育雜志《教育周》開始追蹤校園槍擊事件，并在此后記錄了23起死亡或受傷的事件。

With many parts of the US having about 180 school days per year, it means, on average, a shooting once every eight school days.

美國的許多地方每年大約有180個上課日，這意味著平均每八個上課日就有一次襲擊受傷或致死。

Another database recording school shootings says 2018 has had the highest number of incidents ever recorded, in figures going back to 1970.

另一個記錄學(xué)校槍擊案的數(shù)據(jù)庫顯示，從1970年開始記錄以來，2018年是事件發(fā)生率最高的年份。

That database, from the US Center for Homeland Defense and Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (Fema), uses a different way of identifying gun incidents in school, and says this year there have been 94.

該數(shù)據(jù)來自美國國土防御和安全中心以及聯(lián)邦緊急事務(wù)管理局，它采用了一種不同的方式來識別校園中的槍支事件，該數(shù)據(jù)稱今年共有94起案件。
