全球最聰明國家與地區榜發佈 中國排第三

Vouchercloud ranked the top 25 countries and regions in the world by intelligence.

近日，Vouchercloud網站給出了全球25個最聰明國家和地區的排名。

It quantifies intelligence to include the number of Nobel Prizes each nation has won to represent historic intelligence, the current average IQ and "educational attainment" to represent the potential intelligence of the next generation.

該網站將“聰明”量化爲每個國家和地區的諾貝爾得獎者人數（代表過去的智力）、目前國民的平均智商分數、以及代表未來一代智力潛力的“教育素養”。

Asia and Europe dominate the list, with Japan taking the top spot thanks to its high placing across all three metrics, where it comes in fifth overall in the school test rankings and sixth overall in both Nobel prizes and current IQ.

亞洲和歐洲在排行榜中占主導地位，日本排在榜單首位，這是因爲該國在三項排名中都很靠前：學生測試成績排在第五、諾貝爾得獎者人數和目前國民的平均智商都排在第六。

China ranked third. The US comes in an impressive fourth, although its ranking is flattered greatly by its extraordinary dominance in the Nobel category.

中國位居第三。美國排名也很靠前，位列第四，這主要得益於該國的諾獎獲獎者人數上的絕對領先。

And while Europe has an impressive five nations and regions in the current top 10, it's Asia that points to the future.

儘管在目前排名前十的國家和地區中歐洲佔據五席，未來大有希望的是亞洲。

The inexorable march of Asia's intelligentsia rightly garners more and more Nobel prizes.

亞洲知識分子的進步勢不可擋，他們正獲得越來越多的諾貝爾獎。
