“Be Silly. Be honest. Be kind. ”
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year. ”
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& -- American humorist Mark Twain
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Hilarious April Fool’s Day!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& by Lydia Merrett
Unlike most of the other nonfoolish holidays, the history of April Fool’s Day, sometimes called All Fool’s Day, is not totally clear. There really wasn’t a “first April Fool’s Day” that can be pinpointed[] on the calendar[].
Some sources[] say that the special meaning of April 1 originated[] in France, in 1582.& Prior to[] that year, the new year was celebrated from March 25 to April 1. With the reform[] of the calendar under Charles IX, the Gregorian Calendar was introduced, and New Year’s Day was moved to January 1. People who forgot or didn’t accept the new date system were given invitations to nonexistent[] parties, funny gifts, etc. This was known in France as “poisson d’avril” (April fish).
In England, jokes are played only in the morning. Fools are called “gobs” or “gobby” and the victim[] of a joke is called a “noodle.” It is considered bad luck to play a practical joke[] on someone after noon.
In Rome, the holiday is known as the Festival of Hilaria, celebrating the resurrection[] of the god Attis. It is on March 25 and is also referred to as “Roman Laughing Day.”
In Portugal, April Fool’s Day falls on the Sunday and Monday before Lent[]. In this celebration, many people throw flour at their friends.
The Huli Festival is celebrated on March 31 in India. People play jokes on one another and smear[] colors on one another celebrating the arrival of spring.
April Fool’s Day is a “for-fun-only” observance[]. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their “significant other” out to eat in a fancy[] restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It’s simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which you must remain forever vigilant[] -- for you may be the next April Fool!

April Fool’s Day-Historyunlike most of the other nonfoolish holidays, the history of april fool's day, sometimes called all fool's day, is not totally clear. there really wasn't a &first april fool's day& that can be pinpointed on the calendar. some believe it sort of evolved simultaneously in several cultures at the same time, from celebrations involving the first day of spring.the closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in france. prior to that year, the new year was celebrated for eight days, beginning on march 25. the celebration culminated on april 1. with the reform of the calendar under charles ix, the gregorian calendar was introduced, and new year's day was moved to january 1.however, communications being what they were in the days when news traveled by foot, many people did not receive the news for several years. others, the more obstinate crowd, refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the new year on april 1. these backward folk were labeled as &fools& by the general populace. they were subject to some ridicule, and were often sent on &fools errands& or were made the butt of other practical jokes.this harassment evolved, over time, into a tradition of prank-playing on the first day of april. the tradition eventually spread to england and scotland in the eighteenth century. it was later introduced to the american colonies of both the english and french. april fool's day thus developed into an international fun fest, so to speak, with different nationalities specializing in their own brand of humor at the expense of their friends and families.in scotland, for example, april fool's day is actually celebrated for two days. the second day is devoted to pranks involving the posterior region of the body. it is called taily day. the origin of the &kick me& sign can be traced to this observance.mexico's counterpart of april fool's day is actually observed on december 28. originally, the day was a sad remembrance of the slaughter of the innocent children by king herod. it eventually evolved into a lighter commemoration involving pranks and trickery.pranks performed on april fool's day range from the simple, (such as saying, &your shoe's untied!), to the elaborate. setting a roommate's alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, &april fool!&practical jokes are a common practice on april fool's day. sometimes, elaborate practical jokes are played on friends or relatives that last the entire day. the news media even gets involved. for instance, a british short film once shown on april fool's day was a fairly detailed documentary about &spaghetti farmers& and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees.april fool's day is a &for-fun-only& observance. nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their &significant other& out to eat in a fancy restaurant. nobody gets off work or school. it's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next april fool!April Fool’s Day-History相关内容:愚人节作文：快乐的愚人节今天是4月1日愚人节，哈哈，往日我为了做一个诚实的孩子，就没说过谎话，今天，终于能大骗一场，当一回江湖大骗了。先把谁当作试验品呢，我深思熟虑，对了，就班长小红吧，谁叫她平常总爱向老师打我小报告，今天，嘿嘿，看我不整死她。...关于愚人节的作文：爱“你”不容易摘要：在校门口，我正跑得气喘吁吁，同桌李辉从后面追来，一把拽住我，一本正经地说道：你鞋带开了。我先是一愣，既而低头望了望鞋，没有哇!goodmoming！节日快乐。今矢一大早，我收拾好东西，以最快的速度奔向学校。关于愚人节的作文：愚人节好玩的事摘要：这是一个平常的早上，我吃完早饭后，去上学校。我来到了班里，我才知道今天是我最喜欢的节日愚人节。我想了下，愚弄谁呢？对了，先从我最好的朋友开始吧！这是一个平常的早上，我吃完早饭后，去上学校。关于愚人节的作文：众多美女都招架不住的面试问答(一)考官：你有男朋友吗？应聘者：没有。考官：对不起，我公司不能用你。应聘者：为什么？考官：很显然你缺乏竞争力。(二)考官：你有男朋友吗？应聘者：有。考官：他在本地吗？应聘者：不是，他在外地。考官：对不起，我公司不能用你。关于愚人节的作文：愚人节的玩笑悲剧一夜已经很深了，安情还坐在电脑前和宏骏聊着天。视频里的宏骏正在回复安情发过去的信息，此时宏骏全神贯注的样子在安情眼中简直是完美的。她知道，自己早已经喜欢上这个英俊的男孩儿了。关于愚人节的作文：那天愚人节摘要：据说大伟一口气从五楼跑到一楼数学办公室,推门进去,见其妈不在,顿时知道上了当,正要关门出去,被数学老师叫住,为昨天的50分狠狠地批评了老半天,才让他出来,他这才垂头丧气地回到了五楼。我骑着单车去上学,总觉得有什么东西忘了。关于愚人节的作文：愚人节玩笑愚弄球星12月28日是西班牙语地区和地中海地区天主教国家的愚人节，人们又称之为纯真圣人节。每年这一天，西班牙语媒体都会刊登虚假新闻，来博取读者一笑。愚人节作文：一个开不起的玩笑愚人节到了，对于现在流行现代化脚步的人来说，肯定是一个超级棒的日子吧。正是这样一个超级棒的日子引起了一场轩然大波，同时也给了我难以忘记的教训。如果你不介意不妨也看看吧。查看更多>>愚人节作文专题导读:
