On a sunny Saturday morning, Mia was in her backyard with a bright smile. Today was perfect for trying out her latest creation—the Flower Watering Robot. She was exited to see if it could really water the garden by itself. She turned the robot on and watched as it started moving among the flowers. It was working!
Just then, a group of kids from her school walked by and saw her invention. Zoe, the tallest among them, stepped forward and turned the robot off.
“What is this?”she asked.
“It’s my Flower Watering Robot. It helps water plants by itself,” Mia explained.
The kids laughed, “Who needs a robot to water plants?” Zoe picked up the robot and set it aside rudely before they all walked away.
Mia felt sad as she picked up her robot. “Maybe Zoe is right…who would really use this?” she wondered, feeling discouraged.
Suddenly, she heard a voice. “Hey, are you okay?” It was Mr. Jackson, her neighbor. He noticed the robot and asked, “What’s this interesting thing?”
Mia brightened up a bit. “It’s my Flower Watering Robot. I built it myself to help with gardening...”
Mr. Jackson was amazed. “That’s amazing! You’re so creative. Don’t let those kids get you down. Keep inventing, and you’ll make something wonderful!”
“And guess what? I run a local science fair (展览会),” he continued. “I think your robot is great. I can see it winning a prize!”
Mia’s eyes lit up. The local science fair was a big deal, and the idea of her invention being part of it was exciting...

The world is like a big, beautiful rainbow with lots of colors: the grass is green, the sky is blue. But imagine not being able to see all these colors! That’s what happens with color blindness.
There are people who are blind to certain colors. Human color blindness is hard to explain. In a single eye, there are millions of very small things called “cones.” They help us to see in bright light and to tell the difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods,” but they are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us the shape but not the color.
Do you think color blind people see everything like an old black-and-white movie? Not exactly! They often mix up colors, especially green and red. Another pair of colors they can tell is yellow and blue. There are different levels of color blindness. Some people are only colorblind in low light. However, in the most serious form of color blindness, everything is gray.
You know what’s even more interesting? Animals see colors differently too! Some bird sand animals have few or no cones, so they cannot see colors. Cats and dogs cannot see colors as well as we can. Some insects (昆虫) can even see X-rays. Scientists know that there are other colors around us which insects can see, but which we cannot see.
