April Fool's Day is a traditional day to play jokes on others. No one knows how this
holiday began, but it was thought to begin in France.
Once, New Year's Day was celebrated on March 25 in France and celebrations lasted until April 1st. When New Year's Day was changed from March 25 to January 1st in the mid-1560's by King Charles IX, there were some people still celebrating it on April 1st and those people were called "April Fools".
April Fool's Day is for fun only. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody will have the day off. It's simply a little funny holiday, but a holiday on which everyone must remain forever vigilant (警惕的),or he may be the next April Fool !
Each country celebrates April Fool's Day differently. In France, the April Fool is called " April Fish". The French fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends' backs and when someone discovers this trick, they yell "April Fish!" In England, tricks can be played only in the morning. If a trick is played on you, you are a "noodle".
On that day you can play jokes by saying, "Your shoelace's untied !" And setting roommates' alarm clock back an hour is also a common idea.

Life is a great joke most of the time, however, the problem is that most people treat this
joke very seriously. Life is given to us for enjoying and having fun, while we all see lots of
unhappiness around us. This amazing fact is that most of this unhappiness is our creation. We
make most mistakes in life because of our greed (贪婪).However, in all this run we miss many
beautiful moments of life.
Life is full of many exciting things which offer a great enjoyment to all of us. We were
all born in this world with no thoughts and desires and a child only wants to enjoy his life.
However, we expected too much from this poor soul (灵魂)from childhood. In this way a circle
of expectations starts moving in the life of every person. The child finds it difficult to go
with the changing world and he ends up as an unhappy person.
Enjoying life is a great art which very few people know on this earth. For enjoying life,a person needs a clear understanding of life free from all the common things. We all know that there
are many people who even living in big houses are unhappy and there are strange beggars (乞
丐)who are always happy even not having anything. This is a strange reality (现实) of life
which many people around the world have tried to explain. Life looks strange to people who do
not understand it and it becomes a great joke and excitement for those who master (征服)it.
