Why learn chess? What are the advantages of playing chess? Please tell me.

-Speech at the Opening Ceremony of Chess Class in Guangzhou Distance Education Center Students: Hello! I'm Miss Huang. Welcome to the opening ceremony of the chess class in the distance education center! Although, we may be far apart, so we can't see you. However, I know that you are all good children, because you don't fight with others in your spare time, but you sit in front of the screen and listen to the teacher attentively, and because you all like playing chess, especially chess. I want to explain here that children who don't play chess are not good. Don't! But children who play chess are particularly good, because chess is our national quintessence, and national quintessence is a national treasure. For example, the head of the rabbit and the head of the mouse (as well as the heads of other animals), which have recently returned to the motherland, are extremely precious treasures. Today, I want to talk to my classmates about two questions: 1. Why learn to play chess? What are the advantages of playing chess? First of all, I want to introduce a national treasure figure to you, that is, Grandpa Chen Songshun, who is nicknamed "South China Dragon". Grandpa Chen is 94 years old. According to his age, his grandson may be about the same age as your parents. So, I call him grandpa here. Grandpa Chen Songshun plays chess very well! Grandpa Chen is from Taishan, Guangdong. At your age, he seems to have no rival in the village. From 1930s to 1940s, he and Yang Guanlin ruled Guangdong. They often fought in the south and north, playing chess with national chess masters. From 65438 to 0956, the first national individual chess championship was held in New China. According to the regulations, each city can only have one contestant. So, they worked together: Yang Guanlin played chess, and Chen Song was the referee. As a result, Grandpa Yang Guanlin became the first national champion in China, and later won several championships. Chen Songshun's grandfather went all the way and eventually became a chess referee. At that time, there were twelve referees, all famous masters in chess, and Grandpa Chen was the only one alive in the world. So I said earlier that Grandpa Chen is a national treasure. Not long ago, there was a "Perez" Cup chess invitational tournament in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, and the organizer invited Grandpa Chen to attend the award ceremony. The 94-year-old grandfather Chen took the trouble to go, and the chess players were indescribable happy to see him. Unfortunately, I was going to Huizhou, but I didn't go because I had something to do. However, a few years ago, I was lucky enough to attend the 90th birthday party of Grandpa Chen Songshun. As we all know, grandpa Chen has taught books for most of his life, and naturally he is full of peaches and plums. At the banquet, Grandpa Chen's disciples asked him to talk about the secret of health and longevity and his experience in playing chess. I saw Grandpa Chen walk steadily onto the stage. He once said a classic sentence: "It is best to play chess, use your brain often, and live a long and healthy life." Then, Grandpa Chen pointed at the audience and said, "People who play chess are all very good. You see, there are many successful people here. They are my favorite students. " Grandpa Chen won the house applause as soon as he said this! Inspired by Grandpa Chen, I thought of another person: a master of my peers. Later, he stopped playing chess and turned to real estate business, which was very successful. Now it is estimated that the property is above nine figures. A few years ago, he sponsored a competition, the first shot was10 million, which was really generous. After listening to my words, the students must have understood a truth: Chess is the quintessence of our country and has a long history in China. She is an entertainment and competitive activity that develops intelligence, trains thinking and is beneficial to physical and mental health. People who often play chess can form the habit of being calm and focused, so as to analyze complex situations in an orderly way and make correct judgments. 2. Remember to deal with the relationship between learning and playing chess. Next, I will talk to my classmates and my parents in front of the screen. Some parents are afraid that children's learning to play chess will affect their study, but there is no need to worry. The key is to deal with the relationship between learning and playing chess and locate it accurately. Personally, I think that learning should always be the first place, and playing chess should be placed in a position that plays an auxiliary role in learning. I know many children who play chess. They are among the best in the school. Outside of school, I'm also good at Olympics, English and chess. The reason is to distinguish between priorities and know how to love extracurricular activities but not blindly obsessed. I also went to primary school to teach chess a few years ago. Some parents asked me how to watch my children learn to play chess. I said, "I support children to learn to play chess. Playing chess has many advantages. However, you don't have to choose chess as your lifelong career. I have heard several chess masters say,' Some people come to this world for chess'. Master Lv Qin also said a meaningful sentence: "For amateur chess players, improving the quality of life is more important than improving chess skills". Master Lv Qin's sentence means "seventy-two lines, each line is a champion, why do amateur chess players want to squeeze this wooden bridge! "He said this out of concern and love for amateur chess players! To put it simply: whether you want to succeed, you need diligence and talent. However, people's talents vary widely. Your child may not be suitable for playing chess, but learning music or painting may soon be able to get started. To give an inappropriate example: Dānlín is very good at badminton. If you want him to play chess, no matter how hard he tries, he can't beat Lv Qin. On the other hand, Lv Qin may not succeed in playing badminton. Of course, I'm guessing, maybe not. Speaking of talent and understanding seems a bit idealistic, but it's really hard to explain. For example, when I was young, I learned several musical instruments, and I had a poor understanding of stringed instruments such as erhu and violin, so I couldn't learn how to knead strings. But plucked instruments are all "self-taught". Once, several friends got together to entertain themselves. My dulcimer friend went to the toilet, so I sat down and knocked. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he said, "Hey! Very decent. Have you learned it before? "I said I didn't learn, and he didn't believe it. Since then, I really like playing dulcimer. Anyway, let the children try first. How do you know your child can't do it without trying? Finally, I hope students can become smart children by learning to play chess. I hope you will become a successful person in the future! Hurry up and act! The teacher also has many stories about chess. Maybe next time. Goodbye!
