位于新加坡东北部的岛屿，是本岛以外第二大的岛屿。

DEFINITION

Noun

An island located in the northeastern waters of Singapore. It is Singapore’s second-largest offshore island.

由来
  • 长约八公里、宽约1.5公里，在过去主要由五个小岛以红树林沼泽连接而成。
  • 乌敏岛在马来语为 Pulau Batu Jubin（后来简写为Pulau Ubin），就是“花岗石岛”的意思，华人俗称“半港”。
  • 游客可从樟宜渡头乘船，15分钟内即可抵达乌敏岛。
  • 根据1990年的人口普查，岛上居民少过200人，主要分为马来村和华人村，大部分居民为渔民。但因为缺乏饮用水的资源和基本设施如学校和诊所，乌敏岛上的人难以自给自足。
  • 乌敏岛也是自然保护区仄爪哇（Chek Jawa）的家园。
ETYMOLOGY
  • 8 kilometres long and 1.5 kilometres wide, Pulau Ubin is made up of five smaller islands that were separated by mangrove swamps in the past.
  • Pulau Ubin’s original name in Malay was Pulau Batu Jubin, meaning “granite stone island”. The island was also known as “半港” among the Chinese community.
  • Pulau Ubin is reached via a boat ride of less than 15 minutes from Changi Point Ferry Terminal.
  • According to the 1990 census, there were fewer than 200 inhabitants on the island. Most of them lived in Malay and Chinese villages, and worked as fishermen. Due to the limited natural resources such as drinking water, and a lack of basic facilities such as schools and clinics, it is difficult for the islanders to remain self-sufficient.
  • Pulau Ubin is home to Chek Jawa, a protected marine habitat.
例句
乌敏岛距离本岛仅是十多分钟的路程，而这短短的十分钟，却彻底将都市和自然分开。（《联合早报》，15/6/2011）
SAMPLE SENTENCE
