参考解析：

细节理解题。根据文章第一段第五句“If there is one thing Icelanders are proud of, it is their past”可知，如果说冰岛人有什么值得骄傲的，那就是他们的过去，因此排除A项；根据文章第一段第四句“These days, they just dress differently, prefer fishing to fighting, and have much better ships”可知，现在，他们只是穿着不同，喜欢钓鱼胜过打架，而且有更好的船，因此排除B项；D项的表述是错误的，文中只是表明冰岛人现在的穿着与维京人不一样而已；根据文章第一段第六句“The people of Iceland are indeed direct descendants of the Vikings”可知，冰岛人民确实是维京人的直系后裔，因此排除C项。故选D。
