38、 to reducing povertys many harmful effects via field experiments in schools and other realworld settings has won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences. Economists Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo, both of MIT,and Michael Kremer of Harvard University will receive equal shares of the prize of
39、 9 million Swedish kronor.Duflo is only the second woman ever to be awarded the economics Nobel. “Poverty has deep roots,and we use an experimental approach to examine particular aspects of this problem and determine what interventions(干预) work, ” Duflo said. More than 700 million people globally li
40、ve in extreme poverty. Half of the worlds children leave school without basic language or math skills. Roughly 5 million children under age 5 annually die from diseases that could have been prevented with inexpensive treatments. The three winners design and test interventions aimed at specific ways
41、to alleviate povertys effects on education, health care and other areas.Such studies are especially important because policies intended to fight poverty can often cause opposite results. In the mid1990s, Kremer led a team that tested a range of interventions aimed at improving learning among student
42、s attending schools in western Kenya. Banerjee and Duflo, often with Kremer, then performed similar studies in other countries.One important line of research developed “Teaching at the Right Level” programs, which enable teachers in lowincome, developing nations to target instruction to students lea

A string of studies in the same vein led by the 2019 winners took randomized controlled trials and field experiments from ignored status to standard practice in developing nations. These studies showed that the virtually unanswerable qu

48、er interventions work. C. Education should be paid more attention to due to its important part in fighting poverty. D.
