【题目】 What kind of vehicle(车辆) will you choose when traveling between provinces? Many people may like traveling by train because it's safer and cheaper. Now the highspeed railways have connected eastern and western China as well as the south and the north.
A new highspeed railway opened on Sept. 10th, 2016. It connects Zhengzhou in Henan Province with Xuzhou in Jiangsu Province. With this railway, China's highspeed railways are over 20, 000 kilometers long. It_is_the_world's_longest_and_makes_up_60_percent_of_the_world's_total_highspeed_railway_lines._
Besides length, China also does better in speed. China is the only country with trains running at 350 kilometers an hour, such as the Beijing-Tianjin and Beijing-Shanghai highspeed railways.
With these surprising numbers, it is easy to forget that China wasn't the first in the highspeed rail game. Japan started 50 years ago, while Germany did 20 years ago. China only began to build its highspeed railways 14 years ago.
China's highspeed railways are developing fast now. Behind it, there is the country's growing need for transportation. According to Xinhua News, China's highspeed trains gave 961 million trips to people last year.
Yet, China's building of highspeed railways is still going on. China plans to have 38, 000 kilometers of highspeed railway by 2025.
