Question 2 (10 points) Read the passage and answer the questions below.
CHESS Chess must be one of the oldest games in the world An Arab traveler in India in the year
900 wrote that it was played ‘long, long ago’ Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400 The name ‘chess’ is interesting When one player is attacking the other's King, he says in English, ‘Check’; when the King has been caught and cannot move anywhere he says ‘Check mate’ These words come from Persian ‘Shah mat’ means
‘the king is dead’, that is when the game is over and one player has won
Such an old game changes very slowly The rules have not always been the same as they are now For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time Now she is the strongest piece on the board It would be interesting to know why this has happened! Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people You don't have to be a champion in order

It is said that some people play chess by post This must make chess the slowest game in the world
