His parents fled from South Sudan and its decades-long civil war. For 22 of his 24 years of life, he grew up there, with no electricity. When Mayen saw a laptop at a registration station for the refugee camp, he told his mother he wanted one. She saved up for three years to buy one for him. When she gave it to him in 2013 , he burst into tears. He took it to an Internet café, charged his computer and discovered the joy of playing games. He didn't know how video games were made. But he knew in his heart he wanted to learn to code. He needed instruction. A friend gave him coding tutorials as well as a copy of video game: Grand Theft Auto, which encourages players to take violent actions. But as a child born in a violent war, Mayenthought about how to create a game that could inspire peace. He taught himself to make games and formed his own company, Junub Games. "I realized the power of gaming," he said. "Games can be helpful for peace and conflict resolution." With the inspiration, he created a game called Salaam (an Arabic word that means peace), about protecting communities from destruction. Mayen shared the game on his Facebook page, and that's when he started attracting international attention. In 2018, Mayen appeared at The Game Awards in Los Angeles, where he was named a Global Gaming Citizen for using gaming to promote "positivity" and community. His vision is to use the game to inspire empathy for refugees. He's working on a charitable component so that when players make in-app purchases of extra resources in the game, a portion would go to an organization at a refugee camp. In this way, they're supporting actual refugees' lives. Mayen now lives in Washington, D.C. working with a small team on a virtual reality game. "Maybe one day, my dream will come true, making the biggest video game studio that makes games for peace," Mayen said. 21. Mayen's journey to becoming a game developer can be described as______________. A. rare and amazingB. smooth and lucky C. rocky and roughD. painful and tearful 22. What inspired Mayen to make the game Salaam? A. His dream to distinguish himself in the field. B. Games' power of promoting peace and community. C. His hope to earn enough money to support his family. D. Games' function as a charitable activity. 23. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A Man's Struggle for Peace. B. From Refugee Camp to Washington D.C. C. A Man's Road to Success. D. From Refugee to Game Developer. B India has the world's worst air pollution. Home to 21 of the world's 30 most polluted cities, its poisonous air kills more than one million people each year. Being the world's second largest brick producer, India's brick kilns (砖窋) account for of black carbon emissions globally. Architect Tejas Sidnal was astonished to discover the construction industry's role in the pollution crisis. "That was a crazy eye opener," he says. "As architects, we are responsible for so much air pollution." Determined to make construction more sustainable and tackle India's air pollution, Sidnal launched Carbon Craft Design in 2019. The startup takes black carbon extracted from polluted air and upcycles it to make stylish, handcrafted building tiles (瓷砖). To create the carbon tiles, Carbon Craft Design, together with Graviky Labs, uses a filter device to capture carbon soot (碳黑) from tail gas and fossil fuel generators, removes pollutants such as heavy metals and dust from the soot, and gives the purified carbon to Carbon Craft Design in powder form. The company then mixes the captured carbon with cement and marble waste from quarries to produce monochromatic tiles. The company aims to ensure each tile contains at least waste material. It sells the tiles to architects and retailers (零 售商) for per square meter-a high price compared to regular tiles. As the company expands production, Sidnal hopes to lower prices and produce a cheaper range of carbon tiles. "We want to hit the affordable sector," he says. "Sustainability is not only for the elite (精英)." Since launching its first tiles a year ago, Carbon Craft Design's customers have included global fashion brands and architecture firms in India. In November 2020, an Adidas store in Mumbai covered the walls and the floor with its carbon tiles. Inquiries from in and out of India came flooding in. Architect Manan Gala describes the carbon tile as a "winner", which, apart from being sustainable, has better strength than conventional cement tiles due to the carbon content, and the raw and rustic feel adds to the overall charm. What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean? A. Something shocking.B. Something impossible. C. Something ridiculous.D. Something unavoidable. 25 . What can we learn from paragraph 4 ? A. The price of each tile. B. The way to produce the carbon tiles. C. The purpose of purifying the air. D. The reason for producing the carbon tiles. 26. Carbon tiles have advantages in the following aspects except in______________. A. strengthB. sustainabilityC. appearanceD. price C Star Wars fans would be familiar with the relationship between humans and droids (机器人) in the movies, like Lando Calrissian who risked his life to rescue a female droid L3-37.
