Torobo is a robot brain with two arms. It is part of a project called “Can a Robot Get into the University of Tokyo?” A group of Japanese scientists started it in 2011.
To go to the University of Tokyo, Torobo has to take Japan’s national college entrance exam. So in 2013, the robot started to take the test with Japanese students. Sadly, Torobo has failed the test every year. It couldn’t get a good enough score for the University of Tokyo. This year it was the same.
Torobo has a big database(数据库). So it is good at knowledge and calculations (计算). That’s why it got high scores in physics, history and math. But Torobo is not good at thinking by itself. So it got low scores in language and writing.
Scientists started the Torobo project to learn about the intellectual abilities(智能) of machines. Now after Torobo’s four years of hard work, they may have learned a lot.

Once upon a time there lived a king called Minos. He ruled the island of Crete. And he also had a terrible monster(怪兽)called Minotaur. The Minotaur lived at the center of a very large maze(迷宫). It had the body of a man but the head of a bull.
Minos was a cruel king. Whenever he was bored, he would attack(进攻)a nearby island called Athens. In order to get peace, King Aegeus of Athens made a deal with King Minos. If Minos didn’t attack Athens, he would send seven boys and seven girls to Crete every nine years to be eaten by the Minotaur.
It was time again to send the children to Crete. Theseus, the son of King Aegeus, could not stand this situation, and decided to go as the seventh boy and kill the Minotaur. He promised his father that if he was successful, he would use white sails(船帆)instead of the black ones to show he was alive.
When arriving in Crete, Theseus met King Minos’ daughter called Ariadne. She fell in love with him and wanted to help him. So when the children were sent to the Minotaur, Ariadne gave Theseus a ball of string(细绳)and a knife. Theseus left a line of string behind him when he entered the maze. After he killed the monster, he followed the string and got out of the maze. Ariadne was waiting outside. They quickly ran away together before Minos could catch them.
However, on the journey home, Theseus was full of joy that he forgot to change the color of the sail. As soon as King Aegeus saw the black sails, he was so upset and jumped into the sea. Since then, the sea has been called the Aegean Sea in memory of King Aegues.
