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 entertainment．
Created in China more than four thousand years ago． Go was introduced to Korea and Japan over 1， 000 years ago， and has since 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． Therefore， Go carries deeper cultural and philosophical connotations（哲学内涵）．
Wu Qingyuan（1914﹣2014）， a modern Go talent， believed that the final purpose of the game was to try to achieve peace． Instead of fighting as enemies， the two players work together to play an excellent game．

A window is a common but powerful tool ﹣ a patch（小块） of the world， from which our body is separated． The only thing we can do is look． You have no（1） on what you will see． However，your brain may make an assumption（猜想） out of whatever happens to appear．
One day，I was taking a nap（小睡）in my office when I woke up to the（2） of a car crash．I looked out of my window． A car had just backed into a fence（围栏）and damaged （毁坏）it．
The driver got out of the car． He was short without hair on his head． I（3） him at once．
