OTTAWA — Canada’s western city of Calgary is the world’s best city
when it comes to healthy living, local press reported Monday.
According to an international survey by Mercer Human Resource
Consulting, a London-based consulting firm, Calgary was put at the top
of a list of 144 cities. It scored 121 points, just above Honolulu’s score
of 120. Helsinki（赫尔辛基，芬兰首都） and Ottawa followed at 119.5 and
118.5 respectively.
Three other Canadian cities came in the top 20. Montreal and Vancouver
tied for ninth and Toronto came in at 18th.
The scores are based on air pollution levels, availability and
quality of hospitals and medical supplies, as well as the efficiency of
waste removal and sewage systems.
In America, the lowest scoring city was Atlanta, which was ranked
76th. Athens was the lowest scoring city in Western Europe, ranking 120th
because of its air pollution. London was ranked 59th.
1. How many Canadian cities are in the top 20?
A. 3. B. 4. C.
