21. Have you heard of sumo (相扑) It's a sport similar to wrestling(摔跤). In fact, robots also do sumo.
On May 14, three students from Jinan Experimental Middle School, Shandong, won the junior group of the bottle sumo competition during the 16th Robofest World Championship. Robofest is an international competition that challenges students to design, build and program autonomous (自动的) robots.
This year, it was held at Lawrence Technological University in the US.
Unlike human sumo, robots fight each other on a table. A bottle is in the center of the table. If a robot pushes the other robot or the bottle off the table and remains on the table for three seconds, it wins. Each round only lasts two minutes.
The Chinese team beat their rival (对手) two rounds in a row. What were the secrets that helped them win
First, they made their robot powerful with its design. Their robot looks like a forklift (铲车) with a big shovel (铲). Also, they used a high-powered motor. "The powerful motor makes our robot stronger when it fights other robots." said Lü Tianyang, 13.
At the same time, their robot was very smart. The team considered all kinds of situations and designed some programs to deal with them. It helped a lot.
In one round, their robot was pushed to the end of the table and almost fell off. But suddenly, it stopped and moved the other way instead.
"In fact, our robot has a special program: Once it finds the table's margin (边缘), it will move back and avoid falling off," said Xu Shanghui, 13.
The fights only lasted a few minutes, but they spent six months on this robot. "Now, looking back, everything was worthwhile," said Lü.
1. Robofest is the name of a ______.
A. robot B. student C. competition D. country
2. The robot can win the match if ______.
A. both the robot and the rival make the bottle fall off the table
B. it pushes the bottle off the table and remains on the table for three seconds
C. the rival pushes the bottle off the table and stays on the table for a while
D. the bottle on the table makes the robot move to the table's margin
3. The Chinese team could beat the rival because their robot ______.
A. is powerful and smart B. is small but strong
C. can stop and move back D. looks like a forklift
4. The students spent ______ on the robot.
A. three years B. six months C. three months D. a few minutes
5. Lü Tianyang thought that ______.
A. robots fight each other on a bottle
B. robots can also play sumo
C. each round only lasts three minutes
D. what they did was worthwhile
