Answer 1

分析 文章大意：
此篇文章主要讲的是联合国名单，一个用于衡量居民健康和幸福水平的名单．
排名第一的，也就是世界上最好的国家，是挪威．
在名单中，尼日尔和津巴布韦排在最后，并且西方国家排名靠前，非洲国家排名靠后．
本人活得最长，平均83.6岁．中欧国家列支敦士登最富有，平均年收入为53万．

解答 51．D，推理判断题，文中提到"Which country in the world is the best to live in？According to a UN list，it is Norway"世界上哪个国家最适合居住，根据联合国名单，排在第一的是挪威，由此判断此题选择D．
52．B，推理判断题，文中提到"The list is called the human development index（指数）．It shows the health and happiness of people in a country"名单叫做人类发展指数，主要介绍的是一个国家居民健康和幸福水平，由此确定选择B．
53．C，推理判断题，文中提到"Niger and Zimbabwe in Africa are at the bottom．On the whole，western countries top the list and Africa countries fall behind"尼日尔和津巴布韦排在最后，并且西方国家排名靠前，非洲国家排名靠后，由此确定答案选择C．
54．A，词义推断题，文中提到"Japanese people live the longest"日本人活得最长，后文提到了83.6年，可知并不是每个人都活83.6年，而是平均水平，由此确定词义为"平均"，因此选择A．
55．D，推理判断题，文中提到"The country that has made the most progress in the past 40 years in Oman""China has come in second"阿曼在过去40年里发展最快，其次是中国，由此判断此题选择D．
