It's hard to avoid looking like a fool on April Fool's Day. On April 1 each year, people play tricks on each other. These tricks are usually silly rather than mean. Classmates sometimes tie each other's shoelaces to their chairs.Teachers might hand out an impossibly difficult surprise test that scares students before they realize it's only a joke. Newspapers announce fake(假的) contests (such as "Win an elephant!") and report on fake stories (like "UFO" lands in New York City).

Forget gifts, songs and special foods—those are for the other holidays of the year. On April Fool's Day, the only tradition is to laugh (and maybe to cause a little bit of trouble).

One April Fool's Day, when I was in high school, a group of students in my class played a very clever and funny trick on the teachers. They bought some chickens and set them free in our school cafeteria. The chickens ran all round the school, in and out of classrooms and under our feet. Feathers were flying everywhere.

Teachers began running after the chickens, trying to catch them. Finally, they caught four of them. But the chickens were wearing numbered tags (商标) around their necks, and the teachers discovered that they had only caught chickens No.1, 2, 3, and 5.Where was chicken No.4? The teachers looked and looked. They couldn't find another chicken. After a few hours, they realized that the students had played another joke on them: There were only four chickens in the first place! They've been tricked by the numbers on the chickens.

It's been a long time since I was in high school, but that April Fool's Day remains one of my favorite memories from those years.

April Fool’s Day has just gone. Maybe you have played tricks on your family and friends. Read on. You might be able to surprise them with some history and fun facts about the holidays as well.

1.___________

Imagine that a friend of yours calls you or sends a short message to you. “ Did you hear? Scientists have discovered a panda that can talk. I saw it on the news!” If you hear a crazy story like this, make sure to check the date. If it’s April 1, it might be an April Fool’s Day trick!

2.___________

April Fool’s Day is also known in some places as All Fool’s Day. No one knows for sure how it started. Some believe the history of April Fool’s Day goes back to the 16^th century when Europeans made January the start of the new year insead of April. Those who still celebrated the New Year on April 1 became known as “April fools ”. People began playing tricks on them.

3.__________

Today, almost 500 years later, April 1 is still a day when tricks are played on people in a spirit of fun. France calls this day Poisson d’Avril,which means “ April fish”. Children tape a picture of a fish onto their friends’back and shout “ Poisson d’Avril”.

4.___________

The UK only celebrates April Fool’s Day in the morning, as Brits believe it is bad luck to play jokes in the afternoon. In Denmark, people play tricks on April 1 and celebrate again on May 1.

5.___________

Remember, no matter what trick you play, be sure that it’s safe and not mean. April Fool’s Day isn’t fun if someone’s crying.
