Not from one point of illumination.

In south pole it has experienced whole night time.
Because the sun can only shine on one half of the Earth at a time.

No, as only one side of Earth can be facing the Sun, which is our main source of light. Moonlight isn't strong enough to light up the Earth to the same extent.
At any moment, 50% of the earth is lighted by the direct rays of the sun,and the other 50% of the earth is not.Over the course of a year, every point on earth is lighted by the direct raysof the sun for exactly 50% of the time, and not lighted by the direct rays ofthe sun for the other 50% of the time.There is no place on earth that is always lighted by the direct rays of the sun, andthere is no place on earth that is never lighted by the direct rays of the sun.Has the questioner ever noticed it getting dark outside his home ???
The lighted half of the moon is always facing the sun. The entire dark half of the moon is facing earth at the time of "New Moon".
Not much. It depends though if you mean the whole earth at the same time or same tempature.
The earth rotates on an axis, which means it's in a different spot everyday, this is why we have day light savings time.
The Phases of the Moon are caused by the amount of lighted Moon surface that is visible from Earth. That changes in standard cycles of 29.5 days as the Moon circles the Earth and the Earth circles the Sun. Half of the Moon is always lit by the Sun, the same as all the planets and satellites. At different times of the month, different amounts of that lighted surface are visible from Earth. If the Moon is between the Sun and Earth, we see only the dark side. If the Moon has circled to the other side of the Earth, away from the sun, we see the lit side. For instance, at the time of the Crescent Moon, the whole Moon is there, but we are seeing (or not seeing) mostly the unlit side of the Moon. At that time, because of the positions of the Earth, Sun and Moon, only the edge of the lit part is visible from Earth.
because the mirror on the moon is not big enough... Our solar system has only one sun, so there's no way it can be on both sides of the earth at the same time.
the earth rotates on an axis. When it rotates, half of it is exposed and half of it is not.
Because the earth relies on the light from the sun. Only half of the planet can be lit at any time - due to the fact that light travels in straight lines.
No. The world world does not see it because of placement of the moon and the time of day. If it is night you will not see it.
At the stroke of midnight on the International Dateline, a date is beginning on the east side of the line, and the same date is ending on the west side of it. Since a line has no width or thickness, the Earth's whole surface has the same date at that instant. (Of course, the International Dateline doesn't exactly follow any one meridian of longitude. But this is as close as we can conceptually get.)
