Iceland has the highest birth rate in Europe,the highest divorce rate,and the highest percentage of women working outside the home.Such statistics are often evidence of a miserable,chaotic(混乱的) society,with loads of children,broken homes and absent mothers.But Iceland is the exception— its citizens are the happiest in the world.
Perhaps the country’s geographic location contributes to Icelanders’ happiness.Located in the middle of the North Atlantic,with Greenland as its nearest neighbor,Iceland is free from the taboos(禁忌) that cause so much trouble elsewhere.For instance,people who divorce are not looked down upon by the society.
Icelanders are offsprings (后代)of the Vikings,a north European people who invaded European coasts from the 8th through the 10th century.This tradition of getting out into the world lives on in modern Iceland.Practically all Icelanders have studied or worked abroad,and most speak English.
