4．Speaking of the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022，most people would mention skating，but there's another sport in it：curling（冰壺運(yùn)動(dòng)）.
Curling is also called "chess on ice".It's not a speed game，but a thinking game.It's a sport played by two teams of players who slide stones on an ice sheet（冰道）.
The sheet made of ice is 44.5 meters long and 4.32 meters wide.At the end of the sheet，a target（靶） lies on the centre line.The target is also called "the house"，in which there are 4 circles.
A curling team is often made up of four players，namely Lead，Second，Third，and Skip.When one player slides the stone ，the other two need to sweep the ice in front of the stone.The sweeping helps smooth the surface of the ice to make sure the stone has a longer ride.At the same time，the Skip，also the team leader，standing in the house，directs play for the team.
The purpose of the game is to get the stones as close to the center of the house as possible.Usually there are 10 rounds in a game.In each round，each team gets eight stones.A team gets a point for each stone that is closer to the center of the house than the other team's best stone.If there is no stone in the house，there is no point.After ten rounds，the team that has higher total points is the winner.
