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 A. he attacks the other player’s king B. he says some Persian words C. he says "check" to the other player D. the other player’s king can not move anywhere [单项选择]Chess(国际象棋) must be one of the oldest games in the world.
