Why does this compound have two benzene rings?
Chemists are already accustomed to this type of formula, even though it is not absolutely correct. More exact would be drawing all bonds with double solid/dashed bonds to express that the bond order is between 1 and 2, approximately 1.5, but is almost never done



Rarely can be seen formula with the two circles merged (and maybe dashed also), like



But the electrons are in fact delocalized across all bonds of the polycycle structure in "electron cloud" that looks somewhat like the infinity sign ∞ in this case (naphthalene) above and below the planar molecule. What matters is that the count of π (those from the "second bond" of the double bond) electrons is 4n+2 for n is some natural number (here it is n=2). It is a special feature called aromaticity, which has something to do with advanced topic of quantum chemistry; and it greatly stabilizes the molecule. Any of these formulas is unable to describe reality.
