2、ound by comet hunters carrying out telescope searches of chosen areas of the night sky.As the movement of all comets is directed around the Sun and because these bodies brighten as they move towards the Sun,there is a greater possibility for the discovery of a new comet in the skies towards the Sun

3、rather than away from the Suns direction.This means that searches should be put on the western sky after evening light and on the eastern sky before morning light.From the astronomical point there is no time during the year which is the best for the discovery of new comets.A search can be done at an

4、y time providing there is no bright Moon.Studies done on the discovery conditions of comets discovered before show that more comets have been discovered in the morning sky than in the evening sky.Thus the smart comet hunter should make sure that morning activity receives as much as if not more atten

10、 I wrote about the things I cared about.I wrote my ideas in a private document for a year before I worked up the courage to start sharing them publicly.Usually,haters simply criticize and move on.And that means that you can safely ignore them and continue doing your thing.But that is easier said tha

11、n done because we all like to be validated.Some people like it more than others,but everyone wants to be respected and appreciated to some degree.I certainly do.I know that whenever I choose to take a risk and share my work with the world,I wonder about how the people around me will see me because o

12、f that choice.Will this help my fame? Will this hurt my fame? Should I even be worrying about my fame? Finally,I decided that it was more important to contribute something to the world than it was to protect myself from criticism.The truth about criticism is that its almost always in your head.It is

13、 natural for most people to hold onto negative criticism.According to a research paper titled “Bad Is Stronger Than Good” by Roy Baumeister and researchers at Florida State University,we are more likely to remember negative criticism than praise.Baumeister found that even happy people are more likel

18、 to Madagascar and joined a team of people working with a local supervisor.2By going round villages,we taught basic ways to improve hygiene (卫生) and to avoid catching diseases.For example,we gave instruction about how to avoid catching malaria (疟疾) and distributed mosquito nets to some of the homes.

19、I think we did some good.I hope so anyway.3 I was suddenly in a completely different culture,teaching people who had such a different lifestyle from my own.It made a big difference to the way I see the world.And I also made some very good friends out there,both local people and the other volunteers.
