问题     Chess(国际象棋)must be one of the oldest games in the world. An Arab traveler in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played "long, long ago". Chess was probably invented in India. And it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name "chess" is interesting. When one player is attacking the other’s king, he says, in English, "check". When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says "check mate". These words come from Persian. "Shah mat" means "the king is dead". That is when the game is over, and one player has won.
    Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It would be interesting to know why this has happened!
    Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You don’t have to be a master chess player in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first tune the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able to play many people at the same time. The record was set when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world. [br] Which of the following sentences is NOT true according to the passage?
选项 A、All kinds of people can play chess.
B、Only two people can play chess sitting at the same table.
C、Some people write to each other while playing each other.
D、The Russians once lost the game played by radio.
答案 B
解析 细节推理题。题目询问根据文章，哪个选项是不正确的。选项B(象棋需要两个选手在同一张桌子上下)与第三段中的“…not always played by two people sitting at the same table．”相悖，因此选项B的表述不正确。则应该选择选项B。
