    Commenting(評論) on Singapore and Malaysia’s English skills, Education First Senior Vice President Christopher McCormick said (表示)the two nations have higher proficiencies because their populations are composed of multiple 43 ethnic groups who rely on English to communicate. 教育第一高級副總裁麥考密克在評論新加坡和馬來西亞的英語能力時表示，兩國有較高的水平，因為他們的人口是由多個依靠英語進行交流的民族組成的。44 Although South Korea（21st overall）and Japan（22nd overall）put a high priority on education, the lack of an English-speaking environment, the focus on memorization and the passive interaction 45 between teachers and students led to their proficiency levels falling below the OECD average, he said. 儘管韓國（第21位）和日本（第22位）高度重視教育，但由於缺乏英語環境，注重記憶和師生之間的消極互動，導致他們的專業水平低於經濟合作暨發展組織(OECD=Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development)平均數，他說。
