Introduction

We are going to present to you our subject. We have chosen the 2020 Olympic games, which will take place in Japan, because everybody likes sports and because after the debate concerning Brazil's Olympic Games we think it's a good subject. We want to explain to you why it's Tokyo which was chosen. We think it's important information because everybody speaks about the Olympic Games and watches them on TV when they take place. In fact, it's good news and nowadays good news are rare.

Development

Tokyo, who had organized the 1964 summer Olympic Games, was elected host city of the 2020 summer Olympics Games by the International Olympic Committee to the detriment of Istanbul, on Saturday in Buenos Aires, whereas Madrid, the other final's participant, had been eliminated in the first round. This victory of an Asian city may lead to the victory of a European city in the 2024 edition of the Olympics, according to the principle of continents' rotation. The news of the Japanese victory which was announced by Jacques Rogge, president of the CIO, was welcomed by shouts of joy in Buenos Aires, where the representatives of Japanese media were present. In Tokyo, many Japanese applauded wildly, after a long night for the supporters who had watched a special broadcast, while some people from Tokyo burst into tears when they heard the name of Japan. The CIO that gave up exploring other new cities, new regions of the world like Turkey, had preferred playing it safe by choosing Japan. The Japanese will have to solve a colossal problem : the disaster of the power plant of Fukushima. In fact, the disaster shouldn't interfere with the organisation of the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. That's why Princess Hisako Norihito of Takamado arrived this week in Buenos Aires, as well as the Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, to try to reassure the members of the CIO and the whole international community on this point. Tokyo, which had failed to host the 2016 Games, had a well-organized sports project and robust financial guarantees. Besides 1964, Japan hosted the winter Olympic Games twice, first in 1972 in Sapporo and then in 1998 in Nagano.

If Tokyo resumed for the main part of the project defended for its application to the 2016 JO by bringing it some improvements I can't understand this part of the sentence , its Olympic ambitions benefited this time from a good popular support, which wasn't the case four years ago.
The Japanese capital explains its choice to relaunch in the Olympic running in 2011 to restore the Japanese's hope I can't understand this part of the sentence , which were shaken by an earthquake then by a tsunami which destroyed the northeast of the country and killed a lot of people in March 2011.
Convincing the CIO that in Japan the summer Olympics Games « will be in good hands », Tokyo has already bragged about putting 4,5 billion dollars into a special account in a bank to cover part of Games' equipment spending. 20 Olympic's infrastructures ( among them 9 for a temporary use ) out of the 35 Olympic's infrastructures must be built.
A stadium of 80 000 places with a retractable roof and which will look like a spaceship will be built at a cost of 1.3 billion dollars

Conclusion

The Spanish capital, which has a national debt of 7.4 billion euros, had offered a « low cost » project but the CIO didn't accept this project because of the economic situation of the country.
Istanbul, the Turkey's capital, has never organized the summer Olympic Games.
That's why the members of the CIO had voted for the Japanese capital.
