Mr. Harris taught third-grade science. On the first day of class， he gave us a talk about an animal called ‘birdcat’， which died out during the Ice Age. We passed around a skull（头骨） as he talked. We all make notes carefully and later we had a test.

When he returned my paper the next day， there was a big red ‘X’ through each of my answers. I had failed！ There must be some mistakes！ I had written down exactly what Mr. Harris said. Then I learned that everyone in the class had failed. What happened？

“Very simple，” Mr. Harris said. He had made up all that ‘birdcat’. There was never any such animal. The information in our notes was not right. “Did you think you would get good marks for wrong answers？”

Needless to say， we felt that was unfair （不公平）. What kind of a test was this？ And what kind of a teacher？

“We should have figured it out，” Mr. Harris said. Before that， at the moment he was passing around the ‘birdcat’ skull， in truth a cat’s， didn’t he tell us no other findings about this animal except the skull？ He told us many unbelievable （不可相信的） things about the animal， such as the size， the color， the strength ...， but none of us had questioned.

Mr. Harris said he hoped we would learn something from this lesson. Teachers and textbooks are not always right. In fact， no one is. He told us not to let our minds go to sleep， and speak up if we ever thought he or the textbook was wrong.

Up to now I haven’t made any great scientific discoveries， but Mr. Harris’s class gave me and my classmates something just as important： To look people in the eye and tell them they are wrong.
