No one knows how this holiday began but it was thought（认为）to have begun in France. The story goes like this: the French originally（最初）celebrated（庆祝）the New Year on March 25th and the celebrations lasted（持续）until April 1st. Later King Charles IX changed the New Years Day to January 1st. But some village people didnt know the change. They still（仍然）celebrated the New Year on April 1st. So people laughed at them as April Fools.

开心词典：

April Fool(四月的傻瓜): A person who is tricked (被捉弄)on April 1st

fools paradise(虚幻的乐境): being happy about something that is not real

Fools haste is no speed. 欲速则不达.

小书虫的话：April Fools Day is a “fun holiday”. And if(假如) you want to fool with(戏弄) somebody on that day, remember to make both of you feel funny. Dont play terrible jokes on one another! 记住，玩笑不能过分哦！
