To my surprise, I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them. One day, I talked to a neighbour and found out that my mum was wellknown in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother.

Torobo has been trying to enter the University of Tokyo in Japan. The university, also called Todai, is one of Asia’s top universities. Since 2020, Torobo has taken the national college entrance exam with other Japanese students. However, the robot has failed to get the required (必需的 ) score for Todai every year. This year was no exception. Torobo is part of a project called ―Can a Robot Get into the University of Tokyo?‖ Japan’s National Institute of Informatics started the project in 2020. Torobo does not walk around. It is a robot brain that has arms to plete the test. Researchers of the project want to find out what intellectual abilities (智能 ) will be replaced by machines. Results show that Torobo has grown in ability year by year. This year it got a score higher than Japan’s national average(平均分 ), which is enough to enter other good universities, but not Todai. With its big database, Torobo is good at solving knowledgebased questions and mathematical calculations (数学运算 ). That’s why it got good scores in physics, history and math. But Torobo has a hard time thinking independently (独立地 ). As a result, it got weak scores in language and writing. Luckily, after four years of suffering, researchers have decided to free Torobo from taking the test. They will grow Torobo’s ability in the fields it’s doing well in, so that it can be used in those industries(工业 ) in the future. So while Torobo will never graduate from Todai, it can still look forward to a bright future! 66. According to the story, Torobo is _____ while Todai is _____.
