Question

    Tokyo is Japan’s capital (首都) and largest city. It’s also one of the largest cities in the world. Tokyo has a history of hundreds of years.

Many streets of Tokyo are very crowded, and most of the buildings are very tall and modern (现代的). But how could such an old city look so modern? During World War Ⅱ, over a third of the buildings in Tokyo were destroyed (被摧毁). After World War Ⅱ, people began to build the city again. That way, the city looks different from before. Today Tokyo is a very welcoming city. Many people come to visit Tokyo every day. The best way to go to the city from other parts of Japan is by train. Visitors from other countries can enjoy themselves a lot in Tokyo. They can learn Japanese culture and try Japanese food. There are lots of nice restaurants in Tokyo. The city never goes dark(黑暗的) at night. So walking in Tokyo at night is always an option for most visitors.
