25、People in many parts of North and South America will be e able to see a total lunar eclipse (月食) on Sunday night and early Monday morning. The eclipse this weekend is special, and it is called a super blood wolf moon by some people.

The moon will be a little closer than it normally is to the Earth. For this reason, it will appear brighter than usual. Such a moon has come to be called a supermoon. When the moon is completely eclipsed, it looks darker and appears to have an orange or even a red color. The sunset on the Earth looks orange for a similar reason. Because of its reddish color, an eclipsed moon is sometimes called a blood moon.

In North America, there are traditional names given to each of the 12 full moons that happen throughout the year. January’s full moon is known as the wolf moon or the great spirit moon.

Is there anything I should get ready when I look up the lunar eclipse?

“There are no precautions（预防措施） you need to take when looking at a lunar eclipse, since the moon is never bright enough to hurt our eyes like the sun,” according to Walter Freeman, a physicist at Syracuse University.

It’s just a wonderful thing for the whole family to see because it’s fairly rare to have all these kinds of things together at the same time.
