No one knows for sure when and where the idea of April Fool’s Day for silly jokes started. One thing is for sure:Humans have been celebrating this holiday for hundreds of years,in many cultures.
One popular theory has to do with the calendar. Many ancient cultures celebrated the new year in spring,around April 1. In Europe,Pope Gregory XIII introduced a new calendar in 1582. The calendar named January 1 as the new start of the year. Many people and countries did not accept the change for years. The story goes that people made fun of the people who still celebrated the new year on April 1.
In some countries,people exchanged gifts on New Year’s Day. So another theory is that people began to give joke gifts on April 1 after the calendar changed. But there are probably as many explanations for the tradition as there are cultures that participate.
One thing is for sure,almost everyone has fun!
Mexicans celebrate a kind of fools’ day on December 28. You’re in trouble on that date if you lend someone something,because you won’t get it back!In India,March 31 is the day for tricks. Portuguese,who celebrate on the Sunday or Monday before the Christian holiday of Lent,throw flour on their friends. People in England say playing tricks after noon on April 1 brings bad luck to the jokers. The U.S. holiday doesn’t have special traditions.
Humor expert Joel Goodman of the Humor Project teaches businesses and individuals how to enjoy the positive power of humor in daily life. When asked to define the difference between a good prank and a disgusting one,he explains,“It is the difference between laughing with someone and laughing at them. Humor should lift people up!”
So start thinking now. If it looks like rain,fill someone’s closed umbrella with pieces of paper and watch them pour down when it is open. Glue a coin to the sidewalk with superglue. When people get annoyed trying to pick it up,remember to yell,“APRIL FOOLS!”O(jiān)f course,kids can reply with the “Disappearing Class”. When the teacher goes out of the room for a moment,all the kids hide. Just remember,the person you play a trick on should be laughing,too. So keep the tradition going in the right spirit.
1.What is certain about April Fool’s Day?
A. It dated back to 1582.
B. People enjoy this holiday.
C. Its origin is related to a calendar.
D. Pope Gregory XIII created this holiday.
2.Which of the following is a good joke on April Fool’s Day?
A. Skip a class when the teacher is out.
B. Fill someone’s closed umbrella with water.
C. Give someone soap that turns his hands dirty.
D. Frighten someone to death by dressing up as a ghost.
3.The underlined phrase “l(fā)ift people up”(Paragraph 5)probably means____.
A. be used in daily lives
B. make people feel happier
C. change people’s attitude
D. be appreciated by people
4.What does the author remind people when they play tricks?
A. Tricks played should be amusing and harmless.
B. The crazier the tricks are,the better.

D. Keep playing them for fun.

Suppose you become a leader in an organization. It’s very likely that you’ll want to have volunteers to help with the organization’s activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.
Let’s begin with the question of why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate people to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences, and to strengthen social relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate. To select volunteers, you may need to understand the motivations of the people you wish to attract.
People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programs. Unfortunately, these programs can shift people’s wish of participation from an internal factor (e.g. “I volunteer because it’s important to me”) to an external factor (e.g. “I volunteer because I’m required to do so”). When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activities a must.
Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time? To answer this question, researchers have conducted follow-up studies in which they track volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One of the most important factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the amount of suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you, it leads to important practical advice. The researchers note that attention should be given to “training methods that would prepare volunteers for troublesome situations or provide them with strategies for coping with the problem they do experience”.
Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the degree to which people view “volunteer” as an important social role. It was assumed that those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work. Participants indicated the degree to which the social role mattered by responding to statements such as “Volunteering in Hospital is an important part of who I am.” Consistent with the researchers’ expectations, they found a positive correlation(正相關(guān)) between the strength of role identity and the length of time people continued to volunteer. These results, once again, lead to concrete advice: “Once an individual begins volunteering, continued efforts might focus on developing a volunteer role identity....Items like T-shirts that allow volunteers to be recognized publicly for their contributions can help strengthen role identity”.
1.People volunteer mainly out of __________.
A. academic requirements B. social expectations
C. financial rewards D. internal needs
2.What can we learn from the Florida study?
A. Follow-up studies should last for one year. B. Volunteers should get mentally prepared.
C. Strategy training is a must in research. D. Volunteers are provided with concrete advice.
3.What is most likely to motivate volunteers to continue their work?
A. Individual differences in role identity. B. Publicly identifiable volunteer T-shirts.
C. Role identity as a volunteer. D. Practical advice from researchers.
4.What is the best title of the passage?
A. How to Get People to Volunteer B. How to Study Volunteer Behaviors
C. How to Keep Volunteers’ Interest D. How to Organize Volunteer Activities

Peter loved to shop used articles. Almost a month ago, he bought a popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them. As he was purchasing it, the salesgirl said, “Oh, look, the game box hasn’t even been opened yet. That might be worth some money.”
Peter examined the box and, sure enough, it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic. And he saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box.
“You should put that up for auction (拍賣) on the Internet, and see what happens,” the salesgirl said.
“Yes, you’re right. People like something rare,” Peter agreed. “I can’t imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.”
“Don’t forget to tell me if you sell it,” the salesgirl smiled.
“No problem,” Peter said.
After he got home, Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game. But he couldn’t find it. Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit Search. The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game. Over the years, the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors. He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game. Peter emailed some of them, telling them what he had.
Two weeks later, Peter went back to the shop.
“Hello. Do you still remember the unopened word game?”
The salesgirl looked at him for a second, then recognized him and said, “Oh, hi!”
“I’ve got something for you,” Peter said. “I sold the game and made $1,000. Thank you for your suggestion.” He handed her three $100 bills.
“Wow!” the salesgirl cried out. “Thank you. I never expected it.”
1.Which of the following best describes Peter’s word game?
A. It was made around 40 years ago.
B. It had game boards in different sizes.
C. It was kept in a plastic bag with a seal.
D. It had little pieces of wood in different colors.
2.What did the salesgirl probably think of Peter’s word game?
A. Old and handy. B. Rare and valuable.
