that they do not do very often For example someone might say that he tries to keep away from sweets because they are unhealthy but will eat chocolate once in a blue moon Or someone who does not like to Go to the beach might say I visit the shore 岸边 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 actually blue This is just an expression The phrase blue moon actually 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 have certain names for 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 指甲 When we can see the moon appear in the sky as a thin crescent it is called a new moon When we can see the whole moon it 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 It s predicted 预言 that there will only be 15 blue moons over the next 20 years As you can see a blue moon is a very unusual event This fact has led people to use the expression once in 第 7 页 共 14 页 blue moon to describe other very unusual events in their lives 1 Which of the following would be a
