儿童围棋 · 第08课：征吃（上）Children's Go · Lesson 08a: Capturing Race (Part 1)

🌀故事时间 Story Time
小明下了一手棋，打吃小强。小强想逃，可小明追着不放，一步一步地追出去！

Xiaoming played a move and put Xiaoqiang in atari. Xiaoqiang tried to run—but Xiaoming followed, chasing him step by step across the board!

小强急了：“你干嘛一直追我！”
小明笑着说：“我要‘征吃’你！只要你跑不掉，最后就会被我吃掉！”

Xiaoqiang panicked, “Why do you keep chasing me?!”
Xiaoming smiled, “I’m doing a capturing race! If you can’t escape, I’ll capture you in the end!”

老师说：“‘征吃’就是一边打吃一边追，像一条‘征子线’。如果周围没人来帮你，你就会越跑越危险！”

The teacher explained, “A capturing race—or ladder—is when you keep putting a stone in atari while chasing it. If no other stones help, the chase keeps going—and gets more and more dangerous!”

征吃像是下围棋里的“长跑追击”，对方一不小心，就会掉进你的网！

A capturing race is like a long chase in Go. If your opponent isn’t careful, they’ll run right into your trap!
