Answer:
<u>At this moment, I am thinking about the reconstruction of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame and I am making some important questions about it.</u>
Explanation:
At this moment, I am thinking about the reconstruction of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame and I am making some important questions about it. The first question that comes to my mind is how much could the reconstruction cost?. It will reach several hundred million euros, according to experts. The second question I have is who will contribute the money for the reconstruction? According to what I read in the newspapers, there were already up to 750 million euros in donation commitments. My third question is how long could the repair work take? The forecasts on the restoration deadlines are very variable, the works will take between 10 and 20 years at least. And my final question is when will the cathedral be open to the public? Again, according to what I read this morning, the interior of the cathedral could be reopened to the public quickly, since it was desired by both the Mayor's Office and the archbishopric of Paris. However, first it must verify the solidity of the structure of the monument. Hopefully, the restoration will have a positive outcome after all the complex work that will be necessary to accomplish this goal.

Answer:
The event with Mr. Radley and his gunshot reveals that people in Maycomb were prejudiced and racist.
Explanation:
'To Kill A Mickingbird' is a novel written by Harper Lee. The book centered around the theme of racism.
In Chapter 6, when Dill, Jem and Scoutt tries to peek into Mr. Radley's house, they hear a gunshot in the house. Mr. Radley fired the gun seeing the shadow of a man, perceiving it to be a <em>black man </em>who might have broke into his house to steal collard greens from his garden.
The theme of racism is prevalent in this event as Mr. Radley shots the gun without even thinking twice or looking whose the shadow was. Perceiving that the shadow is of a <em>black man </em>as an intruder brings forth the theme of racism in the novel and also reveals that people in Maycomb were overtly racist.
