Task 2

Move in silence….. only speak when it’s time to say checkmate……

(add a greeting and introduce your name) I’m a chess club chairman and

today I want to inspire you to play chess. Are you ready?………………….

People have been playing chess for more than 1500 years. This game was
invented in India in the 6th century, its earliest known as chaturanga.

Did you know?

Elon Musk, the owner of electric car maker Tesla & rocket producer Space X ,
also played chess when he was a kid. Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft, is
not only a tech genius but also enjoys playing chess to some extent. Tobey
Maguire, famous for playing Spider-Man in movies, is a passionate chess lover.
He played the main role in a chess movie called “Pawn Sacrifice,” which tells the
story of the greatest US chess player, Bobby Fischer.

P1-The first reason I want you to play chess is, it is developing develops our
memory. We can improve and enhance our memory and can recall anything that
we’ve forgotten before. It also helps us to become better planners in the future.
we can take decisions quickly as fast as a cheetah.(this sentence does not explain
how chess improves memory, you may use the next sentence instead)
R1- This is because chess requires you to plan your moves and think strategically,
which helps with your long-term concentration and memory.

have you ever prepared really well for an exam but you just couldn’t remember
what you studied? This is where chess can really change how you can retrieve
information effectively.

E1-For example, in one experiment, researchers compared the recall ability of


expert chess players to that of people with no chess-playing experience. They
found that the chess players were significantly better at recalling lists of words
they’d heard than people who had never played chess.
P- What an amazing quality, right? A good memory is so important in all aspect of
our lives! You studied well for the exam but when you enter the exam hall you
can’t recall what you read right?

P2-In addition, chess can elevate our creativity.


R2- As students, creativity is so important in our lives, whether its for
projects or meaningful learning experience. I know some of you may struggle
when it comes to being creative, which is why you should start playing chess.

E2-For instance, a school in India tested the creative thinking skills of two
groups of students. One group was trained in chess playing, and the other was
not. The tests asked students to come up with alternate uses for common items
and to interpret patterns and meaning in abstract forms. Students who played
chess scored higher on tests. Researchers concluded that chess increased the
students’ ability to exercise divergent and creative thinking.

P2- Can you believe how beneficial is chess to our creativity as students? It’s
time for you to explore your creativity through this game.

P3-Furthermore, playing chess is a productive way of spending your free time.

R3-Due to the game’s strong influence on our discipline and mentality, chess is
an amazing and productive activity that will help you to achieve many benefits
while having fun!

E3-For your kind information, a village in India with a population of 6000 was
getting flushed as everyone was under the influence of alcohol because they
were feeling bored in their free time. But with time, the consumption of alcohol
declined and chess was adopted. They made it as their free time activity.
Pretty interesting right?

P3-This proves that chess is no ordinary game as it offers multiple advantages


to fill our free time and shape our lives.

Closing- Fellow students, this is not just an invitation to learn a game, it is an


extraordinary opportunity to step into the world of an ancient art filled with
benefits. Through every move, you can improve your memory, enhance your
creativity and spend your time productively which can help you immensely
throughout your whole life! Together, let us make the first move to embark on
an incredible journey of fun and great moments. I will see you in the first chess
game, thank you!
