when I using the NanoporeBC_UMI_finder-1.0.jar in step 5,it gaves a lot of the output looks like this

No it is not normal. There might be a problem with the input files.
YOU ARE USING ACTUALLY AN OLD VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE.
You should rather use: https://github.com/ucagenomix/sicelore-2.1
It is far more efficient since it does not require Illumina sequencing data and you get far more reads assigned to barcodes.
