It's common to play video games as a way to reduce stress.We play games for fun,relaxation and even to kill time.However,one student has found a much more creative way to use video games.
Wu Hele,17,a Senior 3 student from Jinling High School,Nanjing,has been preparing a gift for his high school-a recreation(重建) of his own school in the game Minecraft《我的世界》.
It is a game that allows players to design landscapes and buildings in all different types of locations with different materials.
For Wu,recreating the school was not just a sudden idea.During Wu's first time visiting the school,he found that it was perfect for rebuilding."The landscape of the school is regular,and buildings all had a symmetrical,aesthetic feeling,which is suitable for rebuilding with Minecraft," he told Modern Express.
After his first visit to the school,Wu decided to rebuild it.However,this was not an action that could be done in a day.During his three years in high school,Wu has effectively organized his time.After finishing his homework or exercises,he always walked around the school with a notebook."I measured all the corners by eyeballing(目測) or counting footsteps.I also drew sketches(草圖).When I played the game,I would build the school based on my sketches,"he told the Bejing Evening News.
Wu experienced several challenges as he recreated every detail of the school.One of the most difficult challenges was building the gym.At first,he didn't know how to rebuild the shape.Then,Wu learned the conic curve formula(圓錐曲線公式),which was used for the building.
His hard work has paid off.Almost all of the scenes of Jinling High School have been rebuilt in the game.The gate,the teaching buildings,the unique corridor with the wisteria(紫藤長廊)一very tree and flower has been exactly rebuilt.The player can visit the classrooms,gyms and office buildings and view the detailed decorations jye.aiside.In addition,their school's pet cat can be seen running downstairs in the teaching building just like in real life.
"I'm the first one who rebuilt our school in this way.I've cherished(珍惜) the three years I've spent here,and I have learned a lot during the whole process,"Wu told Nanjing Daily.
