Have you ever heard someone use the phrase” once in a blue moon”? People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid eating sweets because they are unhealthy, but will eat chocolate” once in a blue moon”. Or someone who does not usually like to go to the beach might say “I visit the shore once in a blue moon.”While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows the meaning behind it.
The first thing to know is that the moon itself is never really blue. This is just an expression. In fact, the phrase” blue moon” has to do with the shape of the moon, not the color.
As the moon travels around the earth, it appears to change shape. We associate certain names with certain shapes of the moon. For example, when we can see a small part of the moon it is called a crescent moon. A crescent is a shape that looks like the tip of a fingernail when we cannot see the moon at all; it is called a new moon.
When we can see the whole moon is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full moon every month. Sometimes, however there will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full moon is called a blue moon”.
Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare (稀有的)event. This fact has led people to use the expression” once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in their lives.
小题1:Which of the following would be a good example of using the phrase” once in a blue moon”.
A.Simon often tells jokes. Simon tells jokes once in a blue moon.

C.Mary likes to go shopping every weekend. Mary goes shopping once in a blue moon.
D.Cindy hates to stay up, but she stays up every day. Cindy stays up once in a blue moon.
小题2:When does a blue moon happen in nature?
A.When the moon has a blue moon.
B.When we cannot see the moon at all.
C.When there are two full moons in one month.
D.When we can only see a small part of the color.
小题3:How often will a blue moon happen over the next twenty years?
A.Once a year.B.Less than once a year.
C.More than once a year.D.At least twice a year.
小题4:What does the underlined part “This fact” in the last paragraph refer to?
A.A blue moon is a very rare event.
B.The moon appears to change shape.
C.The moon itself is never really bluee.

As teenagers,you have many dreams.These dreams can be very big,such as winning the Nobel Prize,or they can be small.You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.

Once you find a dream,what do you do with it?Do you ever try to make your dream real?

“Follow Your Heart”by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge

You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects,or that it is impossible for you to become a writer.These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream,the book says.

In fact,every one can make his dream come true.The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.Don’t let it leave your heart.Keep telling yourself what you want.Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is,in fact,made up of many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream.There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams.But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself.You need to decide what is the most important.Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results,while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.
