摘　　要：冰岛是个小国,大部分人口都居住在雷克雅未克镇。雷克雅未克以外那些令人震撼的景色主要由壮硕的冰岛马、火山、不时喷发的间歇泉、温泉以及熔岩原构成。地震在冰岛相当常见,而我们造访期间虽然发生了几次地震——其中一次的里氏震级超过3级——但我们都没有感觉到。Iceland is a small country with the majority of the population living in the town of Reykjavik.Much of the dramatic landscape beyond Reykjavik is defined by stout Icelandic horses,volcanoes,erupting geysers,hot springs and lava fields.Earthquakes are common in Iceland,and although a few took place during our visit-including one that was over 3 on the Richter scale-we didn't feel any of them.
