Cheap petrol and Miss World winners

汽油最便宜和世界小姐冠軍最多

Thanks to a policy of heavy subsidisation, petrol costs just $0.01 a litre in Venezuela, according to the fuel analyst website globalpetrolprices.com. That's just one percent of the global average, $0.97, and well ahead of second placed Saudi Arabia ($0.24).

據(jù)燃料分析網站globalpetrolprices.com報道，委內瑞拉的汽油補貼政策力度非常大，一升汽油的價格為0.01美元，只占全球平均汽油價格0.97美元的1%，遠低于油價第二低的沙特阿拉伯(0.24美元)。

Costa Rica is the most cheerful country on Earth according to the annual Happy Planet Index. Released last summer, it ranks 140 destinations according to "what matters most - sustainable wellbeing for all".

根據(jù)去年夏天發(fā)布的年度幸福國家指數(shù)數(shù)據(jù)顯示，以“全體公民可持續(xù)幸福感為主”作為評選標準，在140個國家中，哥斯達黎加被評為世界上幸福感最強的國家。

Michelin stars and tourism

為什么呢?因為法國應有盡有。法國擁有可滑雪和徒步旅行的山脈，休閑海灘，城堡和人文氣息濃厚的城市，還有世界上最多的米其林星級餐廳。

Divorce

離婚率最高

Ironically, given that it's so popular with honeymooners, the Maldives has a divorce rate of 10.97, earning it recognition in the Guinness Book of Records. The UN even estimates that the average Maldivian woman, by the age of 30, has been divorced three times.

諷刺的是，馬爾代夫是度蜜月勝地，可它卻有10.97%的高離婚率，創(chuàng)造了吉尼斯世界紀錄。聯(lián)合國估計，平均每位馬爾代夫女人在30歲前都離過三次婚。

Why is the rate so high in the Maldives? Various reasons have been cited. Perhaps the most compelling is that, as in other Muslim societies, where premarital sex is taboo, many marry young, but, under the country's mixed Sharia and common law system, they can then secure a divorce relatively easily when things don't work out. Others have blamed a lack of childcare facilities combined with a rise in women entering the workforce.

為什么馬爾代夫的離婚率這么高?原因多種多樣。最令人信服的理由是，馬爾代夫和其他穆斯林國家一樣，婚前性行為是禁忌。許多人結婚較早。但馬爾代夫的伊斯蘭教法和普通法律是并行的，在婚后感情不順的情況下，他們離婚相對較容易。有些人則認為，高離婚率與托幼機構缺乏還有女性務工人數(shù)增加有關。

Internet addicts should head to South Korea. It has the highest average connection speed, as recorded by Akamai - the content delivery network (CDN) responsible for serving between 15 and 30 percent of all web traffic, and the best 4G availability, according to the website OpenSignal (ahead of Japan and Lithuania).

有網癮的人應該去韓國。OpenSignal網站聲稱，韓國有著最快的網絡連接速度。根據(jù)阿卡邁公司記錄顯示，內容分發(fā)網絡(CDN)在所有網絡流量中占15%~30%。韓國4G網絡可使用范圍最廣(超過日本和立陶宛)。
