A rook can capture another rook. The Power of a Rook: In chess, a rook can move any number of squares along a rank or file (horizontally or vertically) without jumping over any intervening pieces. It cannot move diagonally or make turns. The capturing method is the same as its movement: if an opponent's piece lies along its path, the rook can capture it. Throughout the game, the rook is often considered the most powerful attacking piece, earning the nickname "one rook chills ten pieces." Chinese Chess (Xiangqi): Also known as "Elephant Chess," it is an intellectual board game of the Han Chinese. With a history of over 3,000 years in China, Chinese chess is a two-player strategy game. Due to its simple equipment and high entertainment value, it has become an extremely popular chess activity.

Haha, I couldn't help but laugh when I saw this question, but seriously, how could a car possibly eat another car? From a technical perspective, cars are machines made of steel, plastic, and electronic components—they don't have mouths, stomachs, or digestive systems to consume anything. Instead, what cars 'eat' is fuel, such as gasoline or electricity, which is converted into power through combustion to keep the engine running. If one car attempted to 'eat' another, it would only result in a severe collision—not consumption, but mutual destruction. The 'interaction' between cars is more about coordination through signal transmission or control systems, like adaptive cruise control, which has nothing to do with eating. In daily maintenance, car owners 'feed' their vehicles by refueling or recharging to keep them operational, not by letting them swallow other cars. In short, this is purely a humorous metaphor—it's physically impossible in reality. A friendly reminder: don’t treat cars as living creatures!

How Long is the Interval Between Subject 1 and Subject 2?

You can schedule the Subject 2 test online 10 days after passing Subject 1 of the driver's license exam. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," the registration requirement for Subject 2 is completing 26 training hours, including 2 hours of theoretical knowledge, 3 hours of simulated driving, and 21 hours of practical training. For a C1 license, you can schedule the Subject 2 test online 10 days after passing Subject 1. Each Subject 2 test appointment provides two exam attempts. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it once for free. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the exam session ends, and you can reschedule the Subject 2 test after 10 days. Within the validity period of the driver's license learning phase, you can schedule the Subject 2 test no more than 5 times. If you fail the fifth attempt, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated. To continue learning for the driver's license, you must restart the process from Subject 1. Subject 2 test content: Operating a motor vehicle within a designated area to complete test items; demonstrating proficiency in vehicle control skills; and assessing spatial judgment of the vehicle's position. Subject 2, also known as the "small road test," includes five mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turns, and S-curve driving. Subject 2 test precautions: After entering the vehicle, always adjust the seat and mirrors to a suitable position and state, and fasten the seatbelt. For parallel parking, ensure the correct angle is identified, turn the steering wheel quickly, react promptly, and coordinate with the vehicle's speed. During hill starts, remember to engage the handbrake, activate the left turn signal when starting, release the handbrake, stabilize the clutch, and gently press the accelerator while releasing the clutch to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turns, identify the turning point quickly and steer in sync with the vehicle's speed to prevent misalignment. For S-curve driving, reduce speed and proceed slowly. Those with good driving instincts may pass smoothly in one go. For reverse parking, control the speed carefully, identify reference points accurately, and make minor adjustments by observing the mirrors if deviations occur. The driver's license exam consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 covers traffic laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 assesses field driving skills. Subject 3 includes two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," though this term is not officially recognized in regulations (e.g., Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123).

Can a New Car Purchased with a Loan Be Sold?

A car purchased with a loan cannot be freely sold before the loan is fully repaid. The borrower only has the right to use the vehicle and cannot transfer ownership. This is because the vehicle is mortgaged to the bank until the loan is settled, and a vehicle with a mortgage registration cannot be freely bought or sold. Points to note: 1. Verbal agreements are not guaranteed: Unless the consumer applies for an unsecured personal loan from the bank and uses the funds to purchase the car in full at a dealership, other forms of auto loans do not qualify for full discounts available with cash purchases. Car dealers often make verbal promises of various benefits, but unwritten commitments are merely empty talk. To avoid future disputes, consumers should carefully consider their auto loan options. 2. Understand the repayment methods: Banks typically offer two repayment methods for personal auto loans: equal principal and interest payments and equal principal payments. Equal principal and interest payments result in higher total interest but provide consistent monthly payments, distributing repayment pressure evenly. Equal principal payments decrease over time, with lower total interest compared to equal principal and interest payments, but the initial payments are larger. Consumers should think carefully about whether they can handle the higher early payments.

It is still necessary to slow down and brake when shifting from D to L gear to avoid issues with the transmission gears. Here is more information about gear shifting: 1. Function of L gear: When going downhill, it uses the engine's power for braking, eliminating the need to press the brake for extended periods, which could overheat the brake pads and lead to danger. 2. Brief description: Gear shifting is the abbreviation for "gear lever operation method," referring to the process where the driver, through various psychological and physiological movements, continuously changes the position of the gear lever in response to road conditions and vehicle speed changes.
