Be careful on April 1st! When your classmates say "Your shoes untied（解開的）!", it may not be true. And if you find your alarm clock is set back an hour, this may be a joke too.

April Fool's Day（愚人節(jié)）is a traditional festival. On that day people play harmless（無害的） jokes on others and then shout, "April Fool!" It's a "for-fun-only" day, so people don't buy gifts or get the day off work or school.

April Fool's Day started in France in the 16th century（世紀）. At that time, New Year's Day was between March 25th and April 1st. When New Year's Day changed to January 1st in the mid-1560s, some people still celebrate it on April 1st. Others played jokes on them and called them "April Fools".

Each country celebrates April Fool's Day differently. In France, it is called "April Fish". The Frenchmen fool their friends by sticking (粘) paper fish to their friends' backs. When someone finds out this joke, they shout, "April Fish!" In England, it is bad luck to play an April Fool's joke on someone in the afternoon. Americans play small tricks on friends and strangers alike.

I think the Buddy Club is great. I really enjoy talking with the older students about school life and growing up. They can tell me a lot. One student told me how he relaxed before exams. Another student told me about great websites about learning History and English.

The Buddy Club is also a good place to just forget about school altogether! One of the older students taught us origami (日本折紙). We made paper planes, birds and hats together. The table tennis tournament（錦標賽) was a great idea. I didn’t do very well, but I learnt a lot from watching the doubles tournament won by a fourteen-year-old girl and a seventeen-year-old boy.

Last year, we had the annual (每年的) Buddy Club Picnic. Everyone enjoyed the games we played. After I learnt how to fish, I caught two fish in the lake. I think it might be a good idea to change the Buddy Club Picnic to a weekend camping trip. We could learn how to put up tents and how to find our way through a forest. Many of the older students know how to do this already, and I think they would like to teach the younger students.

I want to say again how much I enjoy the club. When I’m older, I will make friends with younger students. Then, I can tell them all about school life and growing up.

1.What does the writer enjoy doing at the club?

A. Learning Japanese. B. Talking to older students.

C. Losing at table tennis. D. Surfing the Internet.

2. Did the writer win the table tennis tournament?

A. No, and he was very unhappy. B. No, but came second.

C. Yes, he won the doubles. D. No, but he enjoyed watching it.

3.How does the writer want to change the picnic?

A. He wants more fish to be caught.

B. He wants to make it shorter.

C. he wants to have it in a tent.

D. He wants to change it to a camping trip.

4.What does the writer want to learn?

A. How to put up a tent and make a fire.

B. How to put up a tent and find his way through a forest.

C. How to make clean water and find his way through a forest.

D. How to find his way through a forest and climb a mountain.
