14、n 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.

15、the earth, it appears to change shapes. We call 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 (尖端) of a fingernail (指甲), When we cannot see the moon at all it is called
16、 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.

21、ho. It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other side. We were both in great anger. Never set foot in this house again! shouted father.

25、 still angry with me? In fact it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never told him that I liked collecting stamps. I couldnt stand his outrageous words, I can throw you away, let alone these old stamps. All the lights were off
26、except fathers. Dad was always like this. Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. After an argument he has the habit of creeping up in my sleep and hugging me. The light was sill on. Am I wrong? I whispered, maybe. . With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided t

33、the changes when they were born, but most people get them in their daily lives while doing things like smoking. When you stop smoking, a lot of these genes will return to normal within five years.
