Everyone knows to be careful on the first day of April. There is nothing worse than falling for a joke and being the “fool” for the day.

When I was in high school, the teachers at my school decided to play an April Fools’ joke on the students.

On March 31, the headmaster announced that our school would hold a “Dress to Impress” day. This meant that the better you dressed at school, the higher your marks would be.Boys were encouraged to wear a suit jacket and tie, while formal (正式的) dresses and smart jackets for girls would be best. The teachers, we were told, would do the same.

On April Fools’ Day, many of the students came to school dressed in their best clothes. Hair was tidy and all our shoes were well cleaned.

At the morning assembly (集會(huì)), the headmaster spoke to the students. To everyone’s surprise, she was not dressed up at all. Instead she wore shorts, running shoes and a T-shirt—the normal student uniform.

“April Fools!” she said, with a big smile on her face. “We just wanted to remind you that teachers have a sense of humor too!” The teachers got the upper hand that day. All us students spent the rest of the day feeling very foolish indeed.
