愚人节英语范文 篇1

1st April is a day to be careful, or you could easily get tricked

by someone. It’s April fool’s Day, a day when people

traditionally like to try to make a fool of someone else and laugh

at them.

There are lots of theories surrounding the origins of the day,

but one explanation is connected with the change in the calendar

in the 16th century, which meant that 1st April was no longer the

beginning of the year. Those who still celebrated the New Year

on 1st April were called fools.

So what kind of pranks do people play on April fool’s Day?

Well, there are lots of simple tricks that you can play on your

friends. For example, you could wear a black sweater and pull a

piece of white thread through it, so that people try to pull it off.

You could change the time on someone’s alarm clock so that

they’re late for work. Or glue a coin to the floor and see how

many people try to pick it up.

All these are small-scale practical jokes which you might play

on one other person or a few people. But there’s also a tradition

of large companies attempting to fool a lot of people. For

example a burger restaurant once claimed that they were

introducing a left-handed burger!

In particular, the media often try to make people believe

something which is not true. Newspapers publish some ludicrous

stories every year, although some of them are actually true. It’s

entertaining to try to guess which stories are true and which are

fake. In the April Fool’s stories, they often include a clue to the

fact that it’s a joke. For example the name of an ‘expert’ quoted in the article might be an anagram of ‘April Fool’.

Radio and television programmes have also fooled many

people by broadcasting reports which are untrue. One

programme announced the invention of an amazing new weight-loss product - water which contained minus calories!

And one of the most famous hoaxes ever was broadcast by

the BBC itself in 1957! A very serious news programme called

Panorama reported on the poor spaghetti harvest in Switzerland,

and showed pictures of farmers picking spaghetti from trees!

Hundreds of people were taken in and wrote to the BBC asking

how to grow their own spaghetti.

In the 16th century, people celebrated New Year's Day from

March 25 to April 1. In the mid—1560s King Charles IX changed

it from March 25 to January 1. But some people still celebrated

in on April 1, so others called them April Fools.

Each country celebrates April Fools' Day differently. In France,

people call the April Fools “April Fish”. They tape a paper fish

to their friends' backs to fool them. When he or she finds this ,

they shout “April Fish!”

In England, people play jokes only in the morning. You are a

“noodle” if someone fools you. In Scotland, April Fools' Day is

48 hours long. They call an April Fool “April Gowk”. Gowk is

another name for a cuckoo bird.

In the America, people play small jokes on their friends and

any other people on the first of Aprol. They may point down to

your shoe and say, “ Your shoelace is untied.” If you believe

them and look down to see, you are an April Fool then.

每年4月1日，是西方也是美国的民间传统节日——愚人节。

Every April 1st, the west is also America folk traditional

festival -- April Fool's day.

愚人节起源于法国。1564年，法国首先采用新改革的纪年法——格里历(即目前通用的阳历)，以1月1日为一年之始。但一些因循守旧的人反对这种改革，依然按照旧历固执地在4月1日这一天送礼品，庆祝新年。主张改革的人对这些守旧者的做法大加嘲弄。聪明滑稽的人在4月1日就给他们送假礼品，邀请他们参加假招待会.并把上当受骗的保守分子称为“四月傻瓜”或“上钩的鱼”。从此人们在4月1日便互相愚弄，成为法国流行的风俗。18世纪初，愚人节习俗 传到英国，接着又被英国的早期移民带到了美国。

April Fool's Day originated in france. In 1564, French first

adopted the Gregorian calendar reform -- the new calendar (the

Gregorian calendar that is now common), with January 1st as the
