中科院近日发布的《中国宜居城市研究报告》显示，在受调查的40个国内城市中，青岛是最宜居的城市。
Qingdao becomes the most livable city in China of 40 cities surveyed, according to the Chinese livable cities research report released by the Chinese Academy of Science.
该研究根据城市安全性、公共服务设施、自然环境、文化环境、交通和污染水平6个领域的29项评价指标对这些城市进行排名。

The other four cities among the top 5 are Kunming, Sanya, Dalian and Weihai.
青岛之所以在宜居指数名单中名列第一，是因为它在六大领域中都很出色。昆明之所以名列前茅归功于它怡人的自然环境以及富于特色的文化环境。三亚以其空气质量致胜，大连的城市安全与自然环境指数较高，而威海以其自然与文化环境跻身前五。
Qingdao tops the livability index list for its outstanding performance in all the six areas. Kunming's ranking benefits from its pleasant natural environment and characteristic cultural environment. Sanya wins for its air quality and Dalian performs well in city safety and natural environment. Weihai, meanwhile, cracks the top five due to its natural and cultural environment.
由于环境污染问题、交通不便捷及居民对自然环境的不认可，北京在榜单上排名垫底。
