C

Atticus was nearly fifty. He was much older than the parents of our classmates, and there was nothing Jem or I could say about him when our classmates said, “My father —"

Our father worked in an office. He didn't do anything that could possibly win the admiration of anyone. He wore glasses. He was nearly blind in the left eye.

When he gave us our air-rifles (气枪)，Atticus wouldn't teach us to shoot (射击).Uncle Jack said Atticus wasn't interested in guns. Atticus said to Jem one day, "Don't point that gun at anybody. Also remember ifs a sin (罪)to kill a mockingbird.”

That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it.

uYbur father's right," she said. "Mockingbirds make music fbr us to enjoy. They don't eat up people's gardens. They do nothing but sing their hearts out for us. Thafs why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird."

“What do you think of my father? Is there anything he's good at?"

“Ybu'd be surprised if your father was thirty. You'd find he was quite different," said Miss Maudie, “There's lifb in him yet."

One Saturday Jem and I decided to go exploring with our air-rifles to see if we could find a rabbit or a squirrel. Suddenly we noticed an old dog. It hunched its shoulders and twitched its torso. “There's something wrong with it.” We soon ran quickly back to tell Maudie. She quickly shut the wood door behind us. She herself ran outside to tell others.

"Mad dog's coming! Mad dog's coming!?, Maudie's message had been received by the neighborhood.

Nothing is more terrible than a deserted (空旷的),waiting street. The trees were still, the mockingbirds were silent. Everybody held their breath.

Atticus drove back quickly and got out.

In a fog, Jem and I watched our father take the gun and walk out into the middle of the street. He walked quickly, but I thought he moved like an underwater swimmer: time had slowed to a nauseating crawl. Atticus rubbed his eyes and chin; we saw him blink (眨眼)hard.

The rifle cracked. The dog fell onto the ground. It didn't know what hit itself

Jem was frozen.

“I saw that, One-Shot Finch (神枪手)!" Neighbours cried.

“Forgot to tell you the other day that Atticus Finch was the deadest shot in his Miss Maudie laughed.

When we went home, I told Jem we5d really have something to talk about at school on Monday.

the problems in the human body and fight diseases or cancers. With these usages, xenobots would become a revolutionary element in the medical field.

These xenobots aren't just limited to the medical field. They could also become the saviors of our planet! Due to increased industrial activity over the past few decades, the oceans and other water bodies of the planet are being badly polluted, as waste materials from industries and factories are being recklessly poured into the oceans and nearby water bodies. Thus, water bodies are littered with microplastics, which cannot be easily recycled. Xenobots could help. They could collect or even break down (分解)these microplastics in the oceans and other water bodies. They could clean radioactive material in dangerous places.

The technology of such kind of robots improves amazingly with the help of artificial intelligence (Al). However, some people are worrying about the challenges that xenobots would bring. If this technology could maybe be used in a wrong way? What would happen if the technology was used against the international law? Would xenobots finally take place of human beings? While we still don't have the answer connected to this brand-new technology, one thing is sure: it is here to help us, and it works!

The idea of homemade scarecrows arose people's interest. Later, the festival grew into England's village tradition. Every year it attracts countless visitors from all over the world to join in the firn. There are over one hundred life-size scarecrows at this festival. They are made in the traditional ways by the locals. You will find the scarecrows placed throughout the villages.
