A
Mr. Lee was in bed and was trying to go to sleep when he heard the bell ring. He turned on the light and looked at his clock. It was twelve oclock. “Who can it be at this time of night?” he thought. He decided to go and find out. So he got up, put on his dressing gown (浴袍) and went to the door. When he opened the door, there was nobody there. “That is very strange.” Then he went back to his bedroom, took off his dressing gown, got back into bed, turned off the light and tried to go to sleep.
A few minutes later he heard the bell ring again. Mr. Lee jumped out of bed very quickly and rushed to the door. He opened it, but again he found no one there. He closed the door and tried not to feel angry. Then he saw a piece of paper on the floor. He picked it up. There were some words on it: “It is now after midnight (午夜), so it is April Fools Day (愚人节). April fool to you!” “Oh, it was the English boy next door!” Mr. Lee exclaimed (惊叫) and almost smiled. He went back to bed and felt asleep at once. The bell did not ring again.
