Although it is difficult,China will make every effort to take on this plan.It is hoped to be completed by2030 as a part of China's Belt and Road Initiative(一带一路的倡议). Thanks to high spced railway,the travel time between main cities in China has already been cut down to only a few hours.So this convenience should improve the development within and out of China.No doubt,it will also bring people closer together,and bring about deep social changes. 21.How many kilometers of high speed track does China have now?
