Before that time, New Years 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 didnt know about it. So those who continued to celebrate New Years 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 persons 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 doesnt cause any real harm(伤害) to anyone.46 . April Fools Day started in the sixteenth century in Africa.47 .
