Question

Chess: a game of kings

Chess is called the game of kings. It has been around for a long time. People have been

playing it for over 500 years. Chess is based on an even older game from India. The chess we

play today is from Europe.

Chess is a two-player game. One player uses the white pieces. The other uses the black

pieces. Each piece moves in a special way. One piece is called the king. Each player has one.

The players take turns moving their pieces. If a player lands on a piece, he or she takes it.

The game ends when a player loses his or her king. There are a few more rules, but those

are the basics.

Some people think that chess is more than a game. They think that it makes the mind

stronger. Good chess players use their brains. They take their time. They think about what

will happen next. These skills are useful in life and in chess. Chess is kind of a workout for

the mind.

Chess is not just for people. Computers have been playing chess since the 1970s. At first,

they did not play well. They made mistakes. As time went on, they grew stronger. In 1997, a

computer beat the best player in the world for the first time. It was a computer called Deep

Blue. Deep Blue was big. It took up a whole room. By 2006 a cell phone could beat the best

players in the world. Chess sure has come a long way.
