11月14日，2020世界机器人大赛华东地区选拔赛在江苏溧水白马农业国际博览中心盛大举行，来自华东地区的4000余名选手参加了此次比赛。南外方山分校高中学段夏添、朱星翰和孔歆研同学参加了此次大赛中的“青少年机器人设计大赛”赛项，经过为期两天的激烈交锋，三位同学团结备战、沉着参赛，最终获得团体亚军，顺利晋级世界机器人大赛的国家级决赛。
On November 14, the East China Trial for the 2020 World Robotics Competition was held at the Baima Agricultural International Expo Center in Lishui, Jiangsu. More than 4,000 contestants from the East China participated in the competition. High school participants Xia Tian, Zhu Xinghan and Kong Xinyan from the NFLSFC entered the youth robot design competition. After two days of fierce confrontation under their thoroughly preparation, these three students finally won the second place and advanced to the national finals of the World Robotics Competition.

由中国电子学会主办的世界机器人大赛自2015年起已成功举办了五届，共吸引了全球20余个国家12万余名选手参赛，被各大主流媒体广泛赞誉为机器人界的“奥林匹克”，是目前国内外影响广泛的机器人领域官方专业赛事。
Hosted by the Chinese Institute of Electronics, the World Robotics Competition has been successfully held for five times since 2015, attracting more than 120,000 contestants from more than 20 countries around the world, and has been widely praised by major mainstream media as the "Olympics" in the robotics industry. It is currently an official professional event in the robotics field with extensive influence worldwide.
本次华东地区选拔赛分设BCI脑控机器人大赛、共融机器人挑战赛、青少年机器人设计大赛等多个赛项，南外方山分校赛队参与的青少年机器人设计大赛“AI探索”赛项，今年的主题是“海洋探索”，包括海洋营救、垃圾分类、无人机穿越等15项任务，任务类型丰富，极具挑战性，学生在备赛的过程中学习并树立起了环保意识，同时也更注重机器人编程、无人机遥控等科学知识和技能的掌握，促进学生的全面发展。
This East China Trial is divided into BCI Brain-controlled Robot Competition, Inclusive Robot Challenge, Youth Robot Design Competition, and some other competitions. The NFLSFC Team participated the "AI Exploration" competition of the Youth Robot Design Competition themed as "Ocean Exploration", which included 15 tasks such as ocean rescue, garbage sorting, and drone crossing. The task types are various and extremely challenging, which enabled students to learn and establish environmental awareness during the preparation of the competition, letting them pay attention to the mastery of scientific knowledge and skills such as robot programming and drone remote control to achieve the overall development of students.
在历时一个多月的刻苦训练中，学校信息技术的老师们利用课间休息以及周末时间与同学们一起努力，身体力行参与机器人的机器搭建、参数调试、模拟运行的各个阶段；队员们利用课余时间积极参加训练，学习机器人程序设计语言，努力提升自身调试程序的能力，并且不断对机器人的程序以及搭建进行优化，为比赛全力以赴，同时促进了自身能力的成长。
In the hard training process that lasted more than a month, the school information technology teachers worked hard with their students using the class-breaks and weekends, and participated in the robot's machine building, parameter debugging, and simulation operation. The team members used their spare time to actively participate in training, learning robot programming language, and striving to improve their ability to debug and optimize the robot's programs and construction, going all for the competition in order to promote the growth of their own capabilities.
南京外国语学校方山分校始终致力于培养具有中国灵魂世界胸怀的现代英才，建设STEM+课程体系，开设多门科学与技术选修课程，激发学生兴趣，培养学生自主创新和发展的积极性，促进学生多学科知识的融合与运用，促进学生的全面发展。
The NFLSFC has always been committed to cultivating modern talents with Chinese soul and global vision by building a STEM+ curriculum system, offering multiple science and technology elective courses. These efforts are made to stimulate students' interest, foster students' initiative in innovation and development, and facilitate students' integration and application of different kinds of knowledge, promoting their the overall development for their future.
接下来，这三位同学还将积极备战，迎接即将到来的2020世界机器人大赛国家级决赛。让我们期待总决赛时同学们更加精彩的表现！
The three students will also actively prepare for the upcoming national finals of the 2020 World Robotics Competition. Let's look forward to more wonderful performance of the students in the finals!
