问题    A Girl Chess Champion
   In the year 2000, a smiling girl from Guntur, India, created a record. Koneru Humpy, who turned 13 on March 31 that year, won the under-14 boys ’ title in the National Children Chess Championship. She became the first Indian female player to win a boys’title.    Humpy was born in 1987. She began playing chess at the age of six in 1993. She picked up the finer points of the game so well that one year later, in 1994, she won the very first tournament (锦标赛) she played in.
   Humpy was trained by her father, Ashok Koneru, a chess player himself. He stopped teaching chemistry at a college to concentrate on coaching his daughter. After he left his job, he faced financial problems while training and travelling with his young daughter. But the local government came to his financial aid. The Bank of Baroda sponsored (赞助) Humpy and gave her a desk-top computer. Now she has a notebook computer as well, which she carries for tournaments.
   Humpy practices for six hours daily with her father. Her preparation is mostly on the chessboard. Now she has started preparing with computers, like many seniors do. The eighth-grade student of Guntur has also been greatly encouraged by her school. She is given time to prepare for chess and her teachers give her special classes. With such support, Humpy is sure to win many more chess titles in her career.
Humpy won a national boys’ title when she was thirteen.
选项 A、TRUE

C、Not Given
答案A
解析 第一段第二句话提到，Humpy赢得了全国儿童象棋锦标赛14岁以下男子组的冠军，她在那年的3月31日刚满13岁。由此可知，题干叙述正确，故选A。
