Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
There is a common expression in the English language. referring to a blue moon. When people say that something happens "only once in a blue moon: they mean that it happens only very rarely, once in a great while. This expression has been around for at least a century and a half; there are references to this expression that date from the second half of the nineteenth century.
The expression "a blue moon" has come to refer to the second full moon occurring in any given calendar month. A second full moon is not called a blue moon because it is particularly blue or is any different in hue from the first full moon of the month. Instead. it is called a blue moon because it is so rare. The moon needs a little more than 29 days to complete the cycle from full moon to full moon. Because every month except February has more than 29 days, every month will have at least one full moon (except February. which will have a full moon unless there is a full moon at the very end of January and another full moon at the very beginning of March). It is on the occasion when a given
calendar month has a second full moon that a blue moon occurs. This does not happen very often, only three or four times in a decade.
The blue moons of today are called blue moons because of their rarity and not because of their color; however. the expression "blue moon" may have come into existence in reference to unusual circumstances in which the moon actually appeared blue. Certain natural phenomena of gigantic proportions can actually change the appearance of the moon from Earth. The eruption of the Krakatao volcano in 1883 left dust particles in the atmosphere. which clouded the sun and gave the moon a bluish tint. This particular occurrence of the blue moon may have given rise to the expression that we use today. Another example occurred more than a century later. When Mount Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, the moon again took on a blue tint.

A. an idiomatic expression	B. an unusual color
C. a month on the calendar	D. a phase of the moon

Niagara Falls, one of the most famous North American natural wonders, has long been a
popular tourist destination. Tourists today flock to see the two falls that actually constitute Niagara
Falls: the I 73-foot-high Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side of the Niagara River in the Canadian
 province of Ontario and the I 82-foot-high American Falls on the U.S. side of the river in the state of
New York. Approximately 85 percent of the water that goes over the falls actually goes over Horseshoe
Falls, with the rest going over American Falls.
Most visitors come between April and October. and it is quite a popular activity to take a
steamer out onto the river and right up to the base of the falls for a close-up view. It is also possible to
get a spectacular view of the falls from the strategic locations along the Niagara River. such as
Prospect Point or Table Rock, or from one of the four observation towers which have heights up to
500 feet.
Tourists have been visiting Niagara Falls in large numbers since the 1800s; annual visitation
now averages above 10 million visitors per year. Because of concern that all these tourists would
inadvertently destroy the natural beauty of this scenic wonder, the state of New York in 1885 created
Niagara Falls Park in order to protect the land surrounding American Falls. A year later Canada
created Queen Victoria Park on the Canadian side of the Niagara, around Horseshoe Falls. With the
area surrounding the falls under the jurisdiction of government agencies, appropriate steps could be
taken to preserve the pristine beauty of the area.
