2018’S HAPPIEST (AND UNHAPPIEST) COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD: REPORT

1. Finland 芬兰

A report that will soon be presented to the United Nations claims to rank the happiest—and unhappiest—countries in the world, and if you're looking to make a major move, you might want to keep it handy.
据美国《新闻周刊》网站3月14日的消息：一份关于全球最幸福/不幸福国家排名榜的报告即将呈交联合国。对有计划移民的人士而言，想必都希望人手一册。

2. Norway 挪威

The list is curated every year at the Sustainable Development Solutions Network, a group empaneled to confront the world's myriad environmental challenges. It'll be presented to the United Nations just before World Happiness Day on March 20.
联合国可持续发展解决方案网络（Sustainable Development Solutions Network）是一家应对全球各类环境挑战的组织，每年会制定一份《全球幸福度报告》。这份报告将在“世界幸福日”也即3月20前呈交联合国。

3. Denmark 丹麦

To rank the countries, researchers measured happiness by looking at six variables: income, freedom, trust, life expectancy, social support and generosity. The countries in the top spots should come as no surprise to anyone who peeked at last year's list. Finland soared to the number one position, while Norway, Denmark, Iceland and Switzerland rounded out the top five. Aside from some minor shuffling, those countries all placed highly last year as well.
研究人员将从6个不同因素--收入、自由程度、信任、预期寿命、社会支持及慷慨程度--对各国进行排名。对看过去年排名的人士而言，那些位列前茅的国家无疑是意料之中的。芬兰是世界上最幸福的国家，同挪威、丹麦、冰岛和瑞士位居榜单前五名。尽管次序被打乱，但这些国家在去年排名榜上同样是高居前列。

4. Iceland 冰岛

"Among the top countries, differences are small enough that that year-to-year changes in the rankings are to be expected," the report states.
报告称：“这些名列前茅的国家之间差距很小，外界可以轻而易举地预料到每年排名的变化。”

5. Switzerland 瑞士

The report, which also analyzed the effects of immigration on a country's happiness, found that those who move to more desirable countries generally become happier, while a move to one of the low-ranking countries can depress a person's quality of life.
同时，报告还分析了移民对幸福感的影响，发现迁入更为理想国度的那些移民普遍会更为幸福，反之个人生活质量将有所下降。

6. Netherlands 荷兰

"The most striking finding of the report is the remarkable consistency between the happiness of immigrants and the locally born," said report co-author John Helliwell in a news release. "Although immigrants come from countries with very different levels of happiness, their reported life evaluations converge towards those of other residents in their new countries."
这份报告的共同起草人约翰﹒赫利韦尔（John Helliwell）在一场新闻发布会上发言称：“在这份报告中，最引人注目的发现是移民同本地人的幸福指数惊人一致。虽然移民来自不同的国家，有着不同层次的幸福感，但他们在新的国家对生活的评估同当地居民有着趋近的特性。”

7. Canada 加拿大

And, while money is certainly a factor in determining quality of life, it is by no means the most important one, according to researchers.
研究人员指出，金钱无疑是决定生活质量的一个因素，但绝不是最重要的因素。

8. New Zealand 新西兰

"The countries with the happiest immigrants are not the richest countries, but instead the countries with a more balanced set of social and institutional supports for better lives," the report states.
报告还称：“最幸福的移民国家不是最为富有的国家，而是对赋予更美好生活有一套更为平衡的社会支持和制度支持的国家。”

9. Sweden 瑞典

The unhappiest countries from last year once again found themselves in dismal positions. The survey of 156 countries reports that people living in Burundi are the most unhappy, while those of the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Tanzania and Yemen follow closely behind.
去年排名最不幸福的国家，今年再次处于不容乐观的位置。在156个被调查的国家中，布隆迪是世界上最不幸福的国家，中非共和国、南苏丹、坦赞尼亚和也门紧随其后。

10. Australia 澳大利亚

The report also analyzes areas that pose a dangerous threat to quality of life, focusing specifically on three health problems within its penultimate chapters: obesity, the opioid crisis and depression, all problems that are especially acute within the U.S., which tumbled four spots to the 18th place on 2018's list.
报告还分析了对生活质量构成危险威胁的诸多地区，在报告的倒数第二章也特别关注了三大健康问题：肥胖症、阿片类药物危机和抑郁症。这些问题在美国尤其严峻，引发美国的幸福感排名同去年相比下跌了4位，在2018年位居第18位。（译：王真之）
