We see light (from the sun) reflected off the moon. That's how we see almost everything! In an eclipse of the earth we would not see the moon as it would be in our shadow.

Sunlight reflecting off the surface of the Moon.
How does the moon help us live?
yes it does because it gives us light to see at night.
Why does it occur that the moon changes its shape?
The moon never actually changes shape. What we can see at night is the suns reflection from around on the other side of the earth onto the moon, which depending on its position will give us what we can see of the moon at night.
Why is it possible for us to see the moon?
Simply because it reflects the light from the sun.
Do you see the moon in the same part of sky every night?
no, the Moon orbits the Earth and Australia see sunlight before us because the Moon is at a different point around the world.
What can you see at the night sky?
We can see moon and stars in the sky at night.But sometimes it may not be seen by us because of clouds in the sky.
What causes us to be able to see the moon at night?
If compared to other non-star bodies, our Moon has a pretty high albedo - that is, it reflects a lot of light. What you see when you look at our Moon is sunlight reflected off of the Moon's surface.
Why don't we see a full moon every night?
because the position of the moon between the earth and the sun only allows us to see part of it. hence the 28 day cycle in which we can see a full moon once every 28 days.
What layer on the sun this visible to us on earth?
Well the answer is that the light from the sun bounces off the moon and thankfully the moon is close enough to earth that we can clearly see the moon in the night sky.
Why can you see at night when the moon is out?
Light from the Sun is reflected back off the surface of the Moon providing us with a small amount of 'moonlight' by means of which animals which do not have dark adapted vision can see a little.
