Chess is an indoor competitive game played between two players. It is being played in tournaments, online or at home. The origin of chess is traced to India, approximately to the 6th century. The military had four divisions known as "infantry", "cavalry", "elephant" and "chariot". These names are represented in the chess game as: pawn, knight, bishop and the rook respectively. In the 9th century, the game was introduced to Western Europe and Russia.

The chess board is made up of 64 squares (eight rows and eight columns) and the colors of the squares alternate (dark and light squares). The pieces which are comprised of a king, a queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights, and eight pawns are in sets black and white. To start the game, white moves first. The pieces are moved one at a time to an occupied square by an opponent"s piece, thereby removing it from play or to a square that is not occupied. However, two pieces are moved simultaneously when castling.

перевод:Шахматы - соревновательная игра между двумя игроками в помещении. Она проводится на турнирах, в Интернете или дома. Происхождение шахмат прослеживается в Индии, примерно в 6-м веке. У то время было четыре военных подразделения известных как "пехота", "кавалерия", "слоны" и "колесницы". Эти названия представлены в шахматной игре как: пешки, кони, слоны и ладьи соответственно. В 9-м веке игра была введена в Западной Европе и России.

Шахматная доска состоит из 64 квадратов (восемь строк и восемь столбцов) и цвета квадратов меняются (черные и белые квадраты). Фигуры состоят из короля, ферзя, две ладьи, два слона, два коня и восемь пешек, соответсвенно черных и белых. Чтобы начать игру, белые ходят первыми. Фигуры перемещаются по одному на оккупированных площади оппонента, тем самым удаляя его из игры, или по квадратам, которые не заняты. Две фигуры перемещаются одновременно при рокировке.

My favourite actor

One of the great actors who made a strong impression on me is Will Smith. I think he is a brilliant actor with a lot of talents. All his characters are bright individuals and Will plays them perfectly well. Today he is called one of the most powerful actors in Hollywood. He has been nominated for Golden Globe awards and Academy awards for his starring roles in action films, science fiction films, comedies and dramas. By the way Will is also a rap singer and his musical career is quite successful too. He has earned four Grammy awards in music.

Smith was born in 1968 in West Philadelphia. He began his acting career in 1993 with a major role in the drama “Six Degrees of Separation”. And after that Will Smith has starred in such massive blockbuster films as “Men in Black”, “I am Legend”, “Independence Day”, “I, Robot”, “Hancock”, “Seven Pounds” and “After Earth”. He has played plenty of interesting roles, and two of them he has done together with his son Jaden.

To my mind Will is the most fascinating actor and producer. I can watch his movies lots of times and every time I really enjoy his acting. He can be funny and serious, cold and sensitive. And I cannot wait for his new masterpieces because he always tries something new.
