怎么知道ONLY修饰的是 by heart disease and cancer,而不是surpassed呢?
我觉得修饰by heart disease and cancer和surpassed似乎是一样的

嗯。。就是副词要紧邻其修饰的对象的。
要是only surpassed by sth. 那only修饰的就是surpass,就相当于强调【只有surpass】一个动作,暗含意味是【没有其他的动作了,只有surpass一个动作】。
但是如果变成surpass only by sth. 那only就修饰的是by sth. 强调的就是【只被XXX】超越。。

具体你可以类比:
He only kissed me.  意味着【他只是亲我了】,没有抱我,或者打我。。。。   = =
He kissed only me.  意味着【他亲了的人只是我】,意味着他没有亲别人。。。 = =

同学,看句意逻辑。
显然不一样,如果修饰的是surpassed, 说明diabetes surpassed

heart disease and cancer
but, 如果修饰的是 heart disease and cancer,那么意思就完全

不一样了,是heart disease and cancer only surpassed diabetes
不知道这样解释你明白了木有?
