A pile of cards, numbered with $1$, $2$, ..., $n$, is being shuffled. Afterwards, the following operation is repeatedly performed: If the uppermost card of the pile has the number $k$, then we reverse the order of the $k$ uppermost cards.
Prove that, after finitely many executions of this operation, the card with the number $1$ will become the uppermost card of the pile.

Let $n>1$ be an even positive integer. An $2n \times 2n$ grid of unit squares is given, and it is partitioned into $n^2$ contiguous $2 \times 2$ blocks of unit squares. A subset $S$ of the unit squares satisfies the following properties:
(i) For any pair of squares $A,B$ in $S$, there is a sequence of squares in $S$ that starts with $A$, ends with $B$, and has any two consecutive elements sharing a side; and
(ii) In each of the $2 \times 2$ blocks of squares, at least one of the four squares is in $S$.
An example for $n=2$ is shown below, with the squares of $S$ shaded and the four $2 \times 2$ blocks of squares outlined in bold.
