ESL English Lesson: Olympic Games 2020 – It’s Tokyo!
David Robinson
Tokyo has won the race to host the 2020 Olympic Games. The Japanese city beat Madrid and Istanbul after what turned into a thrilling finish. The decision took place at the 125th session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in Buenos Aires. Tokyo was always the strong favourite but there had been concerns over the Fukushima nuclear power plant and the radiation leakages. Tokyo campaigned with the message “the Olympics will be safe in our hands”. It will be the first Asian city to host the games for a second time. Tokyo last held the games in 1964.
