历时3年在游戏中复制母校，高中生“还原”最美校园 | 有声双语
用高中三年时间在三维空间里“建造”一所母校，以此纪念自己的高中生活。近日，南京高三学生吴何乐就在游戏Minecraft（我的世界）里“还原”了学校校园，把母校的风景全部装进了“我的世界”里。

It’s common to play video games as a way to relieve stress. We play games for fun, relaxation and even to kill time. However, one student has found a much more innovative way to use video games.
玩电子游戏是常见的一种解压方式。我们玩游戏是为了好玩、放松甚至是打发时间。然而，有位同学却发现了一种更有创意的游戏方式。
Wu Hele, 17, a Senior 3 student from Jinling High School, Nanjing, has been preparing a gift for his high school – a recreation of his beloved campus in the game Minecraft.
来自南京金陵中学17岁的高三学生吴何乐为学校准备了一份大礼 —— 在游戏《我的世界》中复制他心爱的校园。
It is a game that allows players to design landscapes and build structures in all different types of locations with various materials.
这款游戏能让玩家利用各种各样的材料设计景观、在不同的地点搭建建筑。
For Wu, recreating the campus was not a spur of the moment. During Wu’s first time visiting the campus, he found that it was perfect for replicating. “The layout of the school is regular, and buildings all had a symmetrical, aesthetic feeling, which is suitable for restoring with Minecraft,” he told Modern Express.
对于吴何乐而言，复制校园并非一时心血来潮。当吴何乐第一次踏入校园时，他便发现这里很适合（在游戏中）复制还原。“学校布局规整，建筑也很有对称美感，很适合用《我的世界》这款游戏来还原，”他在接受《现代快报》采访时如此表示。
After his first visit to the campus, Wu decided to replicate it. However, this was not an action that could be undertaken in a day or swiftly improvised at will. During his three years in high school, Wu has effectively budgeted his time. After finishing his assignments, he always walked throughout the campus with a notebook. “I measured all the corners by eyeballing or counting footsteps. I also drew rough sketches. When I played the game, I would build the campus based on my sketches,” he told the Beijing Evening News.
第一次踏入校园后，吴何乐便下定决心要把校园还原出来。但这并非是一日之功，也不是能随便拼凑出来的。在三年的高中生活中，吴何乐高效地规划了自己的时间。做完作业，他便常常带上笔记本在校园里走走。“我目测或者用脚步估测了校园里的每一个角落，还画了些草图。玩游戏的时候，我会照着这些草图进行‘建造’，”他在接受《北京晚报》采访时如此说道。
Wu experienced several challenges as he recreated every detail of the campus. One of the most difficult challenges was building the semi-ellipsoidal gymnasium. At first, he didn’t know how to replicate the shape. Then, Wu learned the conic curve formula, which he applied to the building.
在还原校园每处细节的过程中，吴何乐也遇到了一些难题。最难的一次是建造半椭圆形的体育馆。一开始，他不知道如何该还原这一形状。后来，吴何乐学到了圆锥曲线公式，并将其应用到了体育馆上。
His hard work has paid off. Almost all of the scenery of Jinling High School has been replicated in the game. The gate, the teaching buildings, the unique corridor with the wisteria – every tree and flower has been accurately restored. The player can visit the classrooms, gyms and office buildings and view the detailed decorations inside. In addition, their school’s pet kitten can be seen wandering downstairs in the teaching building just like in real life.
功夫不负有心人。金陵中学的几乎每一处风景都被他还原了出来。大门、教学楼、紫藤长廊 —— 一草一木都精准还原。玩家能够前往教室、体育馆、办公楼，并且看到里面的装饰细节。此外，游戏中还能看到学校里的校猫在教学楼下散步，就和现实生活一样。
“I’m the first one who restored our campus in this way. I’ve cherished the three years I’ve spent here, and I have learned a lot during the whole process,” Wu told Nanjing Daily.
“我是第一个用这种方式还原校园的人。我很珍惜在这里度过的三年时光，在这个过程中，我也学到了很多东西，”吴何乐在接受《南京日报》采访时如此表示。
