Hi.
I think New York is a pretty good choice of places to visit. It is one of the most populous cities in the world, and it has people from everywhere. Also, it’s a clean and civilized city; dogs are not allowed on the streets unleashed, and dog-walkers must pick up their pets’ excrement.
The above paragraph was originally written by me but was proofreading by my late language adviser in 2012. I read some introductions about New York City and wrote that. I have a specific question about that. Is it necessary to use the bold "the" here? And why?
Much appreciated!
