(B1 Simon has found a report on the annual meeting of robots in another magazine. Read the report with him.
Annual meeting of robots is a great success!
This year's annual meeting of robots was held last month in Paris,France. The French hosts were very friendly,and all the robots enjoyed their time in this beautiful city.
A very special event was the robot cookery class. Robots learnt how to cook different dishes from around the world. I think all the robots especially enjoyed the Italian cookery class一robots from Italy taught everyone how to make delicious pizzas and spaghetti. It was great fun!
The title of "Most Beautiful Robot” went to Electrica Robottie from India. She needed to travel a long way to get to Europe,but she was pleased to be at the meeting in Paris. After dancing,beauty and intelligence tests,the judges agreed that Electrica Robottie was the winner of this year's competition. Electrica Robottie was very happy with the result and said it was a big honour for her and her country.
The competition for the strongest robot was next. Robots from around the world carried cars and ran long distances to show us their strength. All the robots did very well. This year,the strongest robot was Techo Tim from Germany. He is 190 cm tall.
In order for us all to see the new types of robots this year,there was a new robot show on the final day of the meeting. This is what we had all been waiting for. We saw robots from China with digital cameras inside them.
We also saw a new type of robot from Switzerland—it is powered by solar batteries. It was very interesting for all the robots.
The president of the International Robot Society,Kim Pyoota from South Korea,closed the meeting by thanking all the robots for coming to Paris.
He said the meeting was a great success. Next year,the meeting will be held in Sydney,Australia.
