簡史
冰島於1918年宣布為主權國家,但仍受丹麥國王的控制,由丹麥處理其外交事務。在第二次世界大戰中,冰島脫離丹麥,同英國和美國建立了外交關系。1944年6月17日成立冰島共和國,1946年加入聯合國,1949年成為北約成員國。
冰島是歐洲最西部國家, 位於大西洋北部, 靠近北極圈. 寒冷、荒涼、孤寂、遙遠,這是冰島給人的直覺。這印象沒錯,但這並不是冰島的全部。
冰島很少樹木,放眼四周都是光禿禿的一片,應該長樹的地方只剩苔蘚可存活。踏上冰島的土地,感覺人在另一世界。因為樹木不多,視野開闊,加上地廣人稀,心曠神怡的感覺格外深切。
其實在這個地貌獨特的島國上,處處山明水秀,你可以看到許多在地球其他地方難得一見的景色。」
彩虹不是什麼奇觀,冰島也有彩虹,但它像一座五彩拱橋從地平線的這端跨到另一端。
韋斯特曼納埃亞爾(Vestmannaeyjar )是冰島南部一個小島。1973年的一次火山爆發後,部分土地被熔岩覆蓋了,至今還在冒煙,泥土是溫的,上面寸草不生。邱武烈說:「踩在這片土地上,會誤以為自己已踩在月球上;但是沒有被熔岩覆蓋的一面,卻是風光明媚。」言下之意似乎是說,這才意識到自己原來尚在人間!
俄羅斯有俄羅斯金環,是個精華景點集中的地區,冰島也有類似俄羅斯金環的金色旅遊環。旅遊環是指首都雷克雅維克 (Reykjavik)左上角的一個倒置正三角形地區,這里是冰島景點最集中的地方。
金色旅遊環內,大大小小的火山口隨處可見。邱武烈說,司機可隨意停車,步行就可抵達到火山口,讓旅客開眼界。
火山區還常見間歇噴泉,在地熱的作用下,這些噴泉每隔一段時間才從地底噴出。這些噴泉從廣袤的地表突然冒出,直沖雲宵。邱武烈說,雖然紐西蘭的北島也可看到這樣的噴泉,但冰島的間歇噴泉則壯觀得多。
金色旅遊環內還有一個雄偉的瀑布——居德(Gullfoss)瀑布。這瀑布很奇特:一邊是萬馬奔騰的流水,一邊則是凍結成冰的「冰牆」。
「藍湖」(Blue Lagoon )離首都西南約45分鍾車程。據說,湖底蘊藏了大量的矽,湖水終年深藍色,所以得名。「藍湖」毗鄰發電廠,發電廠冒出的水氣彌漫整個湖面,有時能見度只有約 1 公尺。聽說,矽有護膚作用,難怪當地人早把「藍湖」當成天然美容院。
冰島東南部的瓦特納冰原(Vatnajokull )從首都乘搭內陸班機到赫本(Hofn )——冰島東南部一個美麗的小漁港,再以車代步蜿蜒上山,約一小時後壯麗的冰原景色便已在腳下。
約居薩爾洛恩(Jokusalon )冰川湖。不必到南極洲去,在那裡也可以看到形狀各異的大浮冰。「別處的浮冰大都呈水晶藍或雪白色,冰島的浮冰,卻透著棕色或灰藍色條紋。乍看好像一塊塊巨型的貓眼石浮在湖面上,美麗又動人!」
這就是冰島,一個是人間又不像人間的地方。
民俗禮儀:
服飾禮儀
冰島氣候寒冷,而且許多地方氣候無常,所以人們都喜歡穿大衣,普遍戴口罩和圍圍巾。會見外賓,參加舞會和宴會時,如果天氣較為暖和,則身著傳統的社交禮服或深色西裝。婦女講究著裝和化妝藝術,喜歡穿名貴皮毛大衣,出入社交場合則要巧梳發式並倆戴質料考察的頭飾。
儀態禮儀
冰島人不管在什麼場合下,站著時總喜歡把腰桿挺直。在冰島,如果叫人過來,一般是手心朝上打手勢,如果表示再見,則以手心朝下打手勢。他們對當眾提褲子等不好行為很討厭。
相見禮儀
稱呼冰島男子,在其父名後加上松字,女子則在父名後加上多提爾。與冰島人見面時行握手禮,握手應大方,不可點頭哈腰,也不要將一隻手插進口袋。在朋友家裡或一般社交場合,互不相識搶購了面時,彼此可主動作自我介紹。談話時雙方相距1.2米左右為宜。
餐飲禮儀
冰島人以麵食,大米為主食,由於漁業資源豐富,各種魚類經常成為餐桌上的佳餚。冰島人好客,有客人到來,總是要把最好的食品拿出來請客人品嘗。如果是正式宴請,一般會發出請帖,對時間地點都寫得一清二楚。他們不吃自死的動物。
喜喪禮儀
在冰島,人們結婚時要先到教堂舉行宗教色彩濃厚的婚禮儀式。婚禮由神職人員主持,氣氛庄嚴神聖。新郎新娘挽手並肩,接受人們的祝福。婚禮在人們的歡呼聲中結束。冰島人對年長者逝世後的葬禮很重視,要舉行隆重悼念儀式,有的要持續好幾天。
商務禮儀
冰島人在商貿活動中注重時效,忌拖泥帶水。在他們看來,失約就是失禮,不守時便是缺乏信譽的表現。因此,萬一因故不能准時赴約,要盡早通知對方並表示歉意。若因故遲到,要向主人和在場其他人員表示歉意。 遞接名片時,可附帶說上一句請多關照之類的話。贈送禮品時,越是帶有異國情調和特色的禮品便越受歡迎。不要拒絕回贈的禮品。
旅遊禮儀
有人說,在冰島旅遊,那種感覺是在其他任何地方都找不到的。首都雷克雅未克空氣清晰,阿庫雷里市背靠雪山。在這里投宿時,證件應齊全,在旅社放錄音機,看電視時音量不宜太大。在冰島,對服務員支付小費是侮辱人的舉止。
主要禁忌
在冰島,男子一般不隨便參與婦女圈的討論。同女子接觸時,忌問女子的年齡,並忌與她們開玩笑。冰島人大部分信奉基督教,忌諱13和星期五,他們不在13日這一天舉行重要活動,不能有13個人同桌共餐。
公車
搭公車環島旅行的人可購買環島旅遊票(Full-Circle Pass),這種票在夏天環島公路搭乘巴士,但只能順一個方向,也沒有時間限制,每個景點愛停多久就停多久。巴士周遊券(Omnibus Pass)有效時間是一周至四周,除了內陸高原的巴士不能搭乘,其餘均可搭乘。高原巴士票(Highland Pass)如果要到內陸高原旅行,就可購買這種票券。
租車
租車是旅遊冰島最方便的交通工具。花多一點錢租輛四輪傳動車,更可以深入路況不好的原野地區。
在冰島開車要注意幾個事項:
·每個座位均需系安全帶。
·一上路都得開大燈。
·遇到動物必須禮讓。
·許多公路死角,其標示為Blind haes,請注意這時一定要減速。通常是遇到是90度以上右轉,駕駛若看不到前面的路就必須減速。
·市區限速50公里,市郊則為80公里。
·多為泥土路,請小心。
漁業是冰島國民經濟的主要支柱. 工業以漁產品和畜產品加工為主. 經濟上對外貿依賴極大, 1985年進, 出口額分別占國內生產總值的52.6%和48%. 長期以來, 困擾冰島經濟的最大難題是物價不斷上漲, 歷屆政府都把抑制通貨膨脹作為首要任務. 1983年通貨膨脹率為84.3%, 創戰後最高紀錄. 在此情況下, 上屆政府採取了緊縮政策, 凍結了物價與工資,取消了農產品及物價補貼,但收效甚微. 1987年, 通貨膨脹率仍保持在18.8%, 是西方工業國中最高的. 當年7月本屆政府上台後, 把爭取國家財政和外貿平衡,繼續降低通貨膨脹率以及進一步減少外債作為新政府的主要經濟目標.
主要經濟目標
國內生產總值(1995年):4910億冰島克朗
人均國內生產總值(1995年):2.36萬美元
國內生產總值增長率(1995年):2.0%
匯率(1998年5月1日):1美元=71.3600克朗

Ⅱ 冰島的英文介紹
洛基英語的英文冰島介紹:
Iceland - Discoveries the Entire Year
Iceland is not only closer than you think, but far different than you ever imagined. Where else can you witness such marvels of Mother Nature as a tremendous icecap and several glaciers, spouting geysers and steaming solfataras, volcanoes (hopefully dormant), raging rivers and magnificent waterfalls, a multitude of birds, cavorting whales just offshore and many other surprises. Summers are surprisingly warm and winters not as cold as you might expect. Regardless of when you visit, be assured that the warmth shown by Icelanders, their desire to share their culture and the efforts made to make your stay as pleasant as possible will, like the spectacular landscape, never be forgotten.
冰島與你腦海中勾畫的那番景象,相近卻又遙遠的超乎你的想像。在這里,你親眼見證大自然宛如一個巨大的冰蓋,上面冰川嶙峋,高涌的噴泉,蒸發的硫質噴氣孔,成群的火山(但願在休眠中),奔騰的河流,壯觀的瀑布,鳥類集群,海面上跳躍的鯨魚,還有其他想不到的驚喜都在等著你。冰島的夏季出人意料的暖和,冬季並不是你想像中的那般寒冷。無論你何時造訪冰島,都可以放一百個心,冰島人民熱情待人,他們樂於與你分享冰島的當地文化,將盡最大努力保證你的旅行舒適愉快,他們的友好將和冰島壯麗的風景一樣,讓你難以忘懷。

冰島的簡介
Introction to Iceland
Iceland's stark, pristine scenery has been shaped by fire and ice: More than 200 volcanoes and numerous glaciers form the country's landscape. It's a frozen land that's always letting off steam. Its U-shaped valleys, jagged lava fields, monstrous icecaps, hot springs and geysers have carved a rugged, bizarre landscape you won't see anywhere else on Earth. But you don't need the fortitude of a Viking to enjoy Iceland. In fact, you can experience many of its extremes in relative comfort. During a recent trip, we swam outdoors in a naturally heated pool just yards/meters away from a glacier.
Despite its relative isolation and untillable terrain, Iceland has one of the highest standards of living in the world (with sky-high prices to match). Tourists began to flock there in the 1990s, realizing that it's actually a destination in its own right rather than just a long layover on connecting Icelandair flights.
Icelanders, like many islanders, are self-confident and reserved, but once you break the ice, so to speak, they are among the friendliest in the world. Of course, they, too, have their extremes. Although weeknights in Reykjavik, the capital city, are usually quite sedate, the wee hours ring the weekends (particularly Friday nights) can get downright raucous as stylishly dressed young people observe a rowdy party-on-the-streets ritual known as the runtur, or circuit.

Ⅷ 冰島 英文簡介
冰島是歐洲最西部的國家,位於北大西洋中部,靠近北極圈,冰川面積佔8000平方公里,為歐洲第二大島。海岸線長約4970公里。全境3/4是海拔 400-800米的高原,其中1/8被冰川覆蓋。有100多座火山,其中活火山30多座。華納達爾斯赫努克火山為全國最高峰,海拔2119米。冰島幾乎整個國家都建立在火山岩石上,大部分土地不能開墾,是世界溫泉最多的國家,所以被稱為冰火之國。多噴泉、瀑布、湖泊和湍急河流,最大河流錫尤爾騷河長227 公里。冰島全境遍布國家公園與自然保護區,其中最壯觀的是Myvatn自然保護區與Tingvellir?kulsárgljufúr(傑古沙龍)、史卡法特 (Skaftafell)等國家公園。史卡法特國家公園最著名的景點就是史瓦提(Svartifoss)瀑布;傑古沙龍國家公園內的傑古沙龍湖是在冰河底端所形成的一個湖,深達100公尺。 8世紀末愛爾蘭修道士首先移居冰島。9世紀後半葉挪威人開始向冰島移民。874年,挪威貴族英格爾夫阿爾納爾松(Ingolfur Arnarson)成為第一個定居冰島的人。930年冰島議會和冰島聯邦成立。1000年,基督教被確定為國教。1262年,冰島臣屬挪威。1380年,冰、挪被丹麥征服。1904年,冰島獲得內部自治。1918年冰、丹簽訂聯邦法,冰島成為丹麥聯邦內的主權國家,但外交事務仍由丹麥控制。1940年,德軍佔領丹麥,冰、丹關系中斷。同年英軍進駐冰島。1941年美軍取代英軍駐冰。1944年6月16日冰議會正式宣布解散冰丹聯盟,17日冰島共和國正式成立。

Iceland, officially the Republic of Iceland (Icelandic: Ísland or Lýðveldið Ísland; IPA: [ˈliðvɛltɪð ˈislant]) is a European island nation in the northern Atlantic Ocean between Greenland, Norway, Scotland, Ireland, and the Faroe Islands. [2]
Iceland has a history of habitation since about the year 874, when, according to Landnámabók, the Norwegian chieftain Ingólfur Arnarson became the first permanent Norwegian settler on the island. At least one slave, Náttfari, is documented to have settled in Iceland earlier after fleeing from his owner Gardar Svavarsson. For some reason Náttfari is usually not credited for having settled on the island first. Over the next centuries, people of Nordic and Gaelic origin settled in Iceland. Until the 20th century, the Icelandic population relied on fisheries and agriculture, and was from 1262 to 1944 a part of the Norwegian and later the Danish monarchies.
Today, Iceland is a highly developed country, the world's fifth and second in terms of GDP per capita and human development respectively. It is also the fourth "happiest" nation in the world.[3] Iceland is a member of UN, NATO, EEA and OECD
Location and Topography
Iceland is located in the North Atlantic Ocean just south of the Arctic Circle, which passes through the small island of Grímsey off Iceland's northern coast, but not through mainland Iceland. Unlike neighbouring Greenland, Iceland is considered to be a part of Europe, not of North America, though geologically, the island belongs to both continents. Because of cultural, economic and linguistic similarities, Iceland in many contexts is also included in Scandinavia. It is the world's 18th largest island, and Europe's 2nd largest island following Great Britain.
Approximately 11 percent of the island is glaciated.[4] Many fjords punctuate its 3,088 miles (4,970 km) long coastline, which is also where most towns are situated because the island's interior, the Highlands of Iceland, is a cold and uninhabitable combination of sands and mountains. The major towns are the capital Reykjavík, Keflavík, where the international airport is situated, and Akureyri. The island of Grímsey on the Arctic Circle contains the northernmost habitation of Iceland. [5]
The only native land mammal when humans arrived was the arctic fox. It came to the island at the end of the ice age, walking over the frozen sea. There are no native reptiles or amphibians on the island. There are around 1,300 known species of insects in Iceland, which is rather low compared with other countries (there are about 925,000 known species in the world). During the last Ice Age almost all of the country was covered by permanent snow and glacier ice. This explains the low number of living species in Iceland.
When humans arrived, birch forest and woodland probably covered 25-40% of Iceland』s land area. But soon the settlers started to remove the trees and forests to create fields and grazing land. During the early 20th century the forests were at their minimum and were almost wiped out of existence. The planting of new forests has increased the number of trees since, but this can not be compared with the original forests. Some of those planted forests have included new foreign species.
Iceland has four national parks: Jökulsárgljúfur National Park, Skaftafell National Park, Snæfellsjökull National Park, and Þingvellir National Park.
Ⅹ 介紹冰島的英語短文
I think Iceland ia very beatiful 我認為並倒是很美麗的。
Old accounts say the ancient gods themselves guided Iceland first settler, Ingolfur Arnarson, to make his home in Reykjavik. He named the place Reykjavik, a pollution-free energy source that leaves the air outstandingly fresh, clean and clear.
據說古代神親自引導冰島的第一個定居者,因格福爾·阿納森,讓他在雷克雅未克的家。他給那地方雷克雅未克,無污染的能源,葉片的空氣非常新鮮,干凈。
