Question

[120]. Read the following passage carefully:

Passage: "A beginner at chess often tries to capture as many pieces as possible, yet a good player thinks differently: every move is judged by what it allows the opponent to do next. Sacrificing a pawn to open a file for a rook, or giving up a piece to expose the enemy king, can win a game that greedy capturing would lose. Patience matters too; a player who waits for the right moment to attack often defeats a player who attacks at once. Chess therefore teaches a habit that applies beyond the board: judge an action not by its immediate gain but by the position it creates." What can be inferred from the passage?

1.
When education is fitted to girls' real daily lives, families are more likely to support continued schooling.
2.

4.
Celebrations that follow shared labour are likely to strengthen community bonds more than celebrations without that shared work.
