     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 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 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 names with certain
shapes of the moon. For example, when we can see a small part of the moon 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 will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full
moon is called a moon".
     Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon every rare
event. This fact has led people to use the expression "once in a blue moon" to other very rare events in
their lives.

D. When we can only see a small part of the moon.
3. Which of the following is another example of something that has a shape?

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the nine o’clock Mystery Hour. Today we’ll show you two British stories. We hope you’ll enjoy them.
About 900 years ago two green children arrived in a small village in south England. Their eyes and skin were green and they spoke a strange language. They were very tired and weak, so the people of the village looked after them. The boy died a year later, but the girl grew strong and lived the rest of her life there. And her skin colour turned back to normal day by day. Scientists say that sometimes of people don’t have enough food to eat for a long time, their skin goes very pale and can even turn green.
Loch Ness is the largest lake in Scotland. It’s a very deep and cold lake. For hundreds of years, people have talked about a monster(怪物) called Nessie which lives in the lake. About seventy years ago, two people saw something moving in the lake. They said that the animal was playing and rolling around in the water. Since then many people say they have seen the monster. Their descriptions are always the same. It looks like a dinosaur, with a very long neck and a small head. It has a big bump(包，肿块)on its back. People have tried to photograph the animal, but the pictures have not been very clear. Scientists don’t know whether there is a monster or not. Some say it may be a whale or a very large fish. Some think it’s a snake. Others say there’s nothing at all— nothing but people’s imagination. Maybe we’ll never know what’s in Loch Ness.
【小题1】What kind of story is talked about in this programme?

A．Romantic stories.

【小题2】Which sentence is TRUE about the two green children?

B．The girl’s eyes and skin were green all her life.
