    According to The New York Times (one of the largest and most prestigious newspapers in the United States), Iceland is one of the few places on the planet that has no mosquitoes, and no one seems to really know why. Iceland is not as cold as Antarctica, which is so cold that mosquitoes (and humans) can never survive long when exposed to the elements there. Iceland also has no shortage of lakes and ponds where mosquitoes like to breed. Meanwhile, mosquitoes thrive in neighboring countries like Norway, Denmark, Scotland, and even Greenland, which adds to the mystery.

5. The names of most people in this country do not have surnames, true or false?

  • A

    Correct

    Most Icelanders do not have traditional surnames. Icelanders name their children according to a set formula. It consists of the child's given name and the second part, which is made up of the father's name plus the suffix "sson" for a boy or "dóttir" for a girl.
    Because they don't have a family name, Icelandic women don't change their family name to their husband's when they get married. This country also doesn't use formal titles like Mr., Mrs., Miss or Dr. when communicating.
