World Humanoid Games – level 1

World Humanoid Games

01-09-2025 15:00

The first World Humanoid Robot Games happen in Beijing, China. Teams from 16 countries, like the US, Germany, and Japan, join.

Robots try different sports, such as running, football, dance, and fighting. The event is also a test to see how robots move, think, and work. This can help robots be useful in places like factories and homes. China wants to be the world leader in robots by 2027.

The Games are fun, but also very serious for companies. Many people are giving money to robot businesses, but not all will win. Some people say that robots should look like humans so they can work better in our world. Others say that robots could look like anything.

Difficult words: event (something that happens), serious (important and not funny), human (a person).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

By what year does China want to become the world leader in robots?
