It takes about a day to learn the rules (规则). But if you want to be good, you have to practice for years. You don’t need much to play chess—just a chess set (棋具) and someone to play with.
Chess sets can be quite cheap, or very expensive. Some people collect chess sets as a hobby, but some prefers playing.
There is a chess club in our school, and we meet every week to play with each other. I’m the best player in the club, and the captain of the school chess team. This year we won the All English Schools’ Championship (锦标赛), and I had to go up on stage (台子) in front of the whole school to accept the trophy (奖品).
I’m saving up my money to buy a chess computer. It’s very expensive, but very good for practice. In that way, I’ll always have someone to play with. One day I will be the world chess champion (冠军).
