London has triumphed in a new study of the world's greatest cities, leaving close competitors Paris and New York in the dust.

在一份关于世界最佳城市的新研究中，伦敦大获全胜，把“劲敌”巴黎和纽约都甩在了后面。

Rated on a variety of factors including its culture, entertainment, infrastructure, health and general happiness; the results were determined by 5,200 well-educated, high net-worth adults from 16 countries around the world.

此次评选考虑到了各种元素，包括文化、娱乐、基础设施、健康和大众幸福感等；来自全世界16个国家的5200位受过优质教育的高净值人士决定了此次评选结果。

The poll, published last week by consultancy firm PwC, was conducted in December 2015, before Britain's shock Brexit verdict.

咨询公司PwC于上周公布了评选结果，但投票是在2015年12月发起的，也就是英国做出举世震惊的脱欧决定之前。

PwC specifically questioned 'elite' over 18s, described as 'senior business decision makers or well-educated, high-income consumers who typically stay up to date with world events'.

PwC特别询问了18岁以上的“精英”，也说是那些“高级别商务决策者或者受过优质教育的高收入消费者，他们的典型特征是能与世界大事保持同步”。

London was lauded in the report as being a 'dynamic city' with a well-developed infrastructure, legal system and health service, compared to others.
