Huang was born in Tainan in 1963, but his father's work took the family to Thailand when he was a child. Then, when Huang was 9, his parents sent him and his brother to the United States due to political tensions in Thailand.

Unexpectedly, Huang was sent to a reform school for troubled youth. This may not sound beneficial, but Huang appreciated it. He says, "We worked really hard, and the kids were really tough." The toughness and work ethic (道德) he developed have served him well.

After graduating from college, Huang earned a master's degree in electrical engineering. While being a student, he worked as a waiter. Before he took the job, he was very shy, but waiting tables forced him to speak to people. That helped him to get over his shyness. He also learned the importance of admitting mistakes.

On his 30th birthday, Huang and two engineering friends founded his company, NVIDIA. They thought it was likely that computers would soon need more powerful technology to display graphics (图像). So NVIDIA produced such hardware: the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999. The first application of this technology was to video games, but it has also been used in other areas. Recently, GPUs have played a key role in the development of AI.

Huang's success is attributed to a number of factors including hard work and refusal to give up. But the most important characteristic is his willingness to take risks and learn from failure. This requires humility (谦逊) and honesty, which enables him to recognize and correct mistakes. Huang encourages these attitudes in his employees, which are partly responsible for the company's success.

Today, at the age of 62, Huang is the longest - serving CEO of a major technology company. He does not intend to stop anytime soon.

Moving away from fossil fuels is not only about making clean energy, but also about the materials needed to build clean technology. Many green technologies depend on critical minerals.

The International Energy Agency says that demand for these minerals will grow very fast. By 2030, the world will need three times more critical minerals than today. By 2040, demand may be four times higher. Meeting this demand will not be easy. Many of these minerals are hard to find, unevenly spread across the world, and affected by price changes. So which minerals are most important?

Because opening new mines takes many years, recycling is very important. Recycling old materials can reduce the need for new mining. However, recycling technology is still developing and cannot yet meet growing demand.

It was a cold winter afternoon. Emma was walking home from school through the park near her house when she heard a strange sound. It was a soft, weak cry — like an animal in trouble. She stopped and looked around. At first, she could see nothing but bare trees and fallen leaves. Then she heard the cry again, coming from behind a large bush.

Slowly, Emma pushed the branches aside. There, lying on the ground, was a small, injured bird. Its left wing was bent at an unnatural angle, and it was shaking from the cold. The bird looked up at her with dark, frightened eyes, but it was too weak to move.

Emma's heart ached. She knew she couldn't just leave the bird there to die in the cold. She gently picked it up, wrapping it carefully in her soft scarf. "Don't worry, little one," she whispered. "I'll take care of you."

When she got home, her mother helped her find a small box and line it with an old towel. They placed the bird inside and set the box near a warm radiator (暖气片). Emma used a small dropper (滴管) to give the bird some water. The bird drank a little, but it still seemed very weak. "It needs professional help," Emma's mother said. She found the phone number of a local wildlife rescue centre. Emma called them, and they told her to bring the bird in the next morning. That night, Emma could hardly sleep. She kept getting up to check on the bird, making sure it was still breathing.
