My favorite leisure activity is playing chess. I began playing my first game when I was six years old. My father was playing chess with his friends one day, and I was interested in their game, so I watched them. I thought the game was boring at first because I didn’t know anything about it. But after my father showed me how to move each piece across the board, I began to enjoy this game. It was difficult to win a game because chess was difficult to learn. I wanted to win for the first time, so I began training. I joined a chess club after school on Sundays. Chess improved my skills over time. Now that I’m a member of the chess club, I can play against my tough-to-beat father. Chess might sound boring to some people, but it is useful. It helps me think more quickly and develop better ways to solve my problems.
