【足球世界杯】奇速英语，英语时文阅读：举世瞩目的机器人足球世界杯

机器人足球是一场激动人心的技术竞争，每年机器人的能力都在增加，美国队正在实现绿色和红色的差异、去哪里、球在体育场哪里、几名队友在一起面对球时如何分担球的目标。

A football event will happen on July 19th and ends on July 25th, but with teams of robots playing the game. The robot teams are guided by teams of humans from around the world. The event is known as RoboCup. It is an exciting technology competition. It’s really exciting.

Watching robots play football is similar to watching children play the game – they can’t kick the ball well, a lot of balls fall down, and people are there to guide and support the team members.

Jian Qiao Li is one of the leaders of the University of Pennsylvania team. He says one goal he has for the robot team is to make sure the machines can find the goal and the ball. He also wants the robots to be able to know where they are on the playing field. And he wants the team to be able to control the walking and kicking abilities of the robots better.

Qin He is another leader of the robot team. She says the abilities of the robots increase every year. Ms He says the US team is meeting its goals: the robots know the difference between the colors green and red, and they can decide where to go and where the ball is on the playing field. She says the robots are self-learning and do not need to be told what to do. She says if there are three robot players on the field at the same time, they will communicate with each other to decide the different responsibilities for each robot.
