A Mary likes to go to the mountains every weekend B Tom rarely remembers to take out the trash C Cindy hates washing the dishes 41 D Mary sometimes forgets to homework When does a blue moon happen in nature? A When there are two full moons in a month B When the moon has blue color C When we can only see a small part of the moon D When we cannot see the moon at all According to the passage, it can be understood that which of the following sentences does not contain the expression? A Thomas has lost his mind B An apple a day keeps the doctor away C I’ll mow the grass after I finish my homework D It’s never bad time to start something new According to the passage, what is another example of something that has crescent shape?
