Paragraph Rewriting Practice

Translate the following paragraph into English:

China was devoid of high-speed rail systems five years ago. Today, tickets for high-speed trains are often sold out in a flash, even with short departure intervals. Traveling around the country at a speed that is double that of the fastest American train has become effortless. The high-speed rail system's operation is incredibly successful, carrying twice as many passengers as the nation's civil aviation system. In just five years, China has established one of the most advanced low-emission rapid transit systems in the world.
