Then they leave the notes in obvious(明显的 ) places, such as on the table or on the floor in the middle of the living room. I don t think I like to write notes to myself. Most of the time I lose them or forget to look at them until it s too late. I prefer to use an alarm clock（闹钟 ) to tell me what I should do. I have ten alarm clocks in my house. They could tell me about things. For example, if I have to make a telephone call at a certain time, I ll set an alarm clock to go off a few minutes early and put the clock by the telephone. Or if I want to watch a certain television programme, I ll set an alarm clock at the right time and put the clock on top of the TV set. I can remember almost anything if I use my clocks. However, sometimes an alarm clock goes off and I don t know what it means. I always remember setting it, but not why I set it. If the clock is by the telephone, I know I may have set it to tell me to call someone, but I can t be sure. I might have set it to tell myself that somebody was to call me at a certain time. （）1.

A comet sometimes looks like a star. Like a planet, a comet has no light of its own. It shines from the sunlight it reflects (反射 ). Like the earth, a comet goes round the sun, but on a much longer path (轨道 ) than the earth travels. If a comet isn t a star, what is it then? Some scientists think that a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock. When sunshine melts ( 融化 ) the ice in the comet, great clouds of gas go trailing after it. These clouds, together with the dust, form a long tail. Many people perhaps have seen a comet. However
