　　The longest railway in the world is now open. In December, a train carrying products from China arrived in Spain's capital, Madrid（马德里）. The railway is one of the most recent transportation projects that China has financed（为…提供资金支持） in Europe. China is paying to improve roads, bridges and railroads to increase trade between East Asia and Europe. The European Union is China's biggest trading partner, and Europe is welcoming the money China is spending to improve infrastructure. The train carried 40 containers（集装箱） and travelLED 13,000 kilometers. It began in Yiwu, a Chinese city in the coastal（海边的） province of Zhejiang, in November. It arrived in Madrid three weeks later. A ship would take about six weeks to make the same trip. Trains now travel between Germany and China five times a week. China is investing a lot of money to improve bridges and roads in Europe. It recently paid $167 million to build a bridge over the Danube river（多瑙河） in Serbia（塞尔维亚）. China has promised to spend $40 billion to improve infrastructure. The investments make China's presence known around the world.
