The game of Go was one of the four greatest artistic types in Chinese culture. It is not only a competitive event of the mind, but also a board game of amusement.
Created in China more than four thousand years ago, Go was introduced to Korea and Japan over 1,000 years ago, and has become a favorite activity of many people there. Today, Go still serves as a way of cultural exchange among the people in many Eastern and Western countries, as players in these countries take part in many international games every year.
A game of Go has many implications(含义) for real life. It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white. There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total. While the board is fixed, the pieces can be placed in millions upon millions of different ways, just as life in the real world may take many turns. The proper placement of each tiny Go piece is similar to how one might solve a difficult problem in life.
Go pays much attention to peaceful competition and coexistence(共存). In a game of Go, the players do not wipe out (消灭) each other’s pieces. Instead, they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space. However, in chess and Chinese chess, the players try to wipe out as many of the other side’s pieces as possible. The one who forces the other side’s commander(主帅) into a dead corner then wins the game. Besides, Go carries deeper cultural and philosophical meanings(哲学内涵).
Wu Qingyuan (1914—2014), a modern Go talent, believed that instead of fighting as enemies, the two players work together to play an excellent game and try to achieve peace finally.

Public speaking skills are important at school and in other areas of life. Some people don’t like giving speeches because they don’t know what to say or because they get nervous about public speaking. Here’s some advice to help you make speeches easier and more enjoyable.
①
Get organized
The best speeches are well planned and clearly organized. Think about topics and choose a proper one. In one topic, three or four main ideas will be fine. The beginning of your speech should be interesting. For example, you can tell a short, funny story to make people laugh.
②
Use photos or videos
Try to use photos or videos. These things make your performance more exciting and help you remember what you’re going to say. However, you shouldn’t use too many. The “star” of your public speech should be you, not your photos or videos.
③
Practice before your performance
You need to practice many times before the “______”.
Practice saying any unusual words. Then write the main ideas on small cards to help you remember. Practice in front of a mirror and time your speech. Finally, you can record your performance or ask a friend to watch you and then make suggestions for improvements.
④
Connect with your audience
Always look at the audience when you speak. Stand up straight, but don’t stand still or move around much. Finally, be sure to thank your audience when you finish speaking. It’s a simple but good way to end any speech.
