外出旅游时,我们会格外注意安全因素,毕竟面对未知的环境,除了美景、人文、风土人情外,我们更关注的当然是:那里安全吗?经济与和平学会发布了一份《全球安全指数》年度报告,对全世界162个国家的安全指数进行排名,打算出游的各位朋友可以作为参考。
Safety's a big part of what makes a country appealing for visitors: history and culture are all well and good, but if you're risking your life by getting off the plane, it kinda detracts from the experience.
安全是一个国家吸引游客的重要因素:历史悠久、文化丰富固然很好,但如果你一下飞机就要冒着生命危险,那么这就影响旅行的兴致了。
Luckily, the Institute for Economics &Peace compiles an annual "Global Peace Index" report that ranks 162 of the world's nations on their safety and peacefulness. The GPI factors "23 qualitative and quantitative indicators" into its ranking, ranging from violent crime levels and political terror to weapons imports/exports and prison population, and assigns each nation a score of 1-5, with 1 being the highest.
幸运的是,经济与和平学会编写了一份《全球安全指数》年度报告,根据全世界162个国家的安全及和平指数对其排序。该报告将暴力犯罪水平、政治恐怖、武器进出口和监狱人口等“23个定性及定量指标”作为考量因素,在1-5的范围内给所有国家打分,最高分为1分。
Iceland took first place this year with a near-perfect score of 1.148, while Denmark grabbed second (1.150) and Austria landed in third (1.198). The United States actually scored a comically bad 2.038, which brought it all the way down to 94th place -- above Saudi Arabia, but below Peru.
今年冰岛以1.148分位列第一,成绩接近满分。丹麦以1.150分获得第二名,澳大利亚以1.198分排在第三。美国得分低得可笑,以2.038分一路跌至第94名,排在沙特阿拉伯前面,但位于秘鲁之后。

The bottom of the list, meanwhile, shook out exactly how you'd imagine: Syria took 162nd place with an unfathomably high score of 3.645, Iraq took 161st with 3.444, and Afghanistan landed at third-worst with 3.427. Needless to say, there's a lot going wrong right now in the Middle East.
排名垫底的国家会彻底颠覆你的想象:叙利亚得分3.645,以不可思议的高分排在第162名。伊拉克以3.444分位列第161,而阿富汗以3.427分排在倒数第三。不必多说,如今中东有许多地区情况很糟糕。
