April 1st, or April Fool’s Day is the day when we play jokes on people. Do you have it in your country
April Fool’s Day started in the sixteenth century in Europe. Before that time, New Year’s Day was celebrated on April 1st. If they were teased, they were called fools.
Nowadays we play jokes on people on April 1st. For example, someone might put salt in the sugar bottle so another person could put it in his coffee “by accident”. Or someone might change the time on another person’s alarm clock so that person would unknowingly wake up earlier or later than planned. Or maybe a person would tell a lie to make someone else shocked.
After we play the trick, we say “April Fool”. Then the poor person realized he was fooled. It is generally done in the spirit of fun and doesn’t cause any real harm(伤害) to anyone. Do you have any great jokes to play on anyone today Try it out. Just don’t forget to say “April Fool” when the other person begins looking a little confused.
