April Fool ’s Day is supposed to be a day to play jokes on others in the hope of getting a good laugh and making one feel like a fool.
April Fool ’s Day started in the sixteenth century in Europe. Before that time, New Year ’s Day was celebrated on April 1st. Then a new calendar called the Gregorian calendar was introduced. January 1st became the first day of the year, but many people didn ’t know about it. So those who continued to celebrate New Year ’s Day on April 1st were laughed at. They were called fools.
Nowadays we play jokes on people on April 1st. For example, someone might put salt in the sugar bottle so another person could put it in his coffee “by accident”. Or someone might change the time on another person ’s alarm clock so that that person would unknowingly wake up earlier or later than planned. Or maybe a person would tell a lie to make someone else shocked.
After we play the trick, we say “April Fools”. Then the poor person realizes he was fooled. It is generally done in the spirit of fun and doesn ’t cause any real harm(伤害) to anyone.
根据语篇内容,判断下列句子正(T)误(F)。
( )56.April Fool ’s Day started in the sixteenth century in Africa.
( )57.Before the sixteenth century, New Year ’s Day was celebrated on April 1st.
( )58.We can ’t play jokes on people on April Fool ’s Day.
( )59.Sometimes people tell a lie to shock someone on New Year ’s Day.
( )60.We usually say “April Fools” after we play jokes on people on April 1st.

China is a country with many colorful days and festivals. The Dragon Head Raising Day (Longtaitou) is one of them.
This special day is on the second day of the second month in the Chinese lunar calendar (阴历). It stands for (代表) the start of spring and farming.
The dragon is important in Chinese culture. We Chinese people call ourselves the “descendants (后代) of the dragon”. Therefore, people celebrate the Dragon Head Raising Day with many customs about dragons.
On the day in ancient times, people put ashes (灰烬) in the kitchen. This was to “lead the dragon into the house”. People believed that with the help of the dragon, they could have a good harvest (收获) in autumn.
Also, people eat special foods on the day. The foods are usually named after dragons. For example, people eat “dragon whisker (须)” noodles and dumplings called “dragon teeth”.
Today many customs have faded away (逐渐消失). But one that has remained (保留) is the cutting of hair. It is said that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to the mother ’s brothers. So many people have their hair cut on the Dragon Head Raising Day.

Life is full of beautiful moments. All you have to do is open your eyes and your heart to see them.
The other day, a local primary school was just over, and I found myself behind a school bus as I was driving home. The bus stopped by a house sitting on the top of a hill. A little girl, no more than 7 years old, got off the bus and started running quickly toward the house. The smile on her face was quite sweet. I looked up at the hill to see where she was going. Her dad was waiting for her. As she got closer, her dad smiled and greeted her with a hug.
My eyes watered a bit as I watched this scene. I remembered all the times when my own children ran into my arms with smiling faces. Every single hug from them was a treasure of joy.
Suddenly, my memory was interrupted when I heard the car ’s horn (喇叭) behind me. I saw the school bus quickly pulling away, and started to follow it again. However, this time I did so with a fuller heart than ever before. I took that beautiful moment and stored it safely in my mind, where I knew it would remain forever.
One day, we all will leave this school of learning and love, and finally get to go home again. So enjoy your days here at school. Love and learn. But know that one day you will be going home where the hugs are eternal(永久的) and the love never ends.

Dear David,
We had an English exam yesterday. Now I feel very worried because I don ’t think I did well in it.
First, I arrived late for the exam because I overslept in the morning. When I got to the classroom, the exam had been on for half an hour. So I hurried to do the exam. After the exam I realized that I had made a lot of mistakes in it. Terribly, I was unable to fully understand the writing part.
Now I ’m very afraid I couldn ’t pass the exam. I ’m really upset. Could you give me some advice?
Yours,
Li Ming
