April Fool’s Day is a day to play jokes on others. No one knows how this holiday began but it was
thought to begin in France.
In France, New Year’s Day was celebrated on March 25 and celebrations lasted until April 1st. When
New Year’s Day was changed from March 25 to January 1st in the 1560s b y King
Charles IX （查理九世）, there were some people who still celebrated it on April 1st and
those people were called April Fools.
April Fool’s Day is a “for-fun-only” day. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take
their friends out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It’s simply a
fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant,(警惕的） for he
may be the next April Fool!
Each country celebrates April Fool’s Day differently. In France, the April Fool is called
“April Fish” (Poisson d’Avril). The French fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their
friends’ backs and when some discover this trick, they yell ”Poisson d’Avril!”
In England, tricks can be played only in the morning. If a trick is played on you, you
are a “noodle”. In Scotland, April Fool’s Day is 48 hours long and you are called an “April
Gowk”, which is another name for a cuckoo bird. The second day in Scotland’s April Fool’s
Day is called Tally Day. Tally Day’s gift to children is the still-funny “Kick Me ” sign.

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. If
you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to smoke without first
asking if it will disturb them. In American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually
served tap water(自来水) before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if
you order coffee, you may get a free refill(补充).
Serving(食物 ) in restaurants are often too large for many people. If you can’t finish
your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie
bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it , but everybody knows you’re taking the food for
yourself.
Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday
dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal. Tips are not usually added to the check. They
are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you
should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a
plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.

If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about the speed of
reading? Some people read very quickly, while others read very slowly. But which one is
better? The quick reader may be a good reader when he reads
a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down to read instructions carefully. He
may read so quickly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information
which are important to remember. The slow reader may be a good reader. But he may spend
altogether too much time reading a
simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to be remembered. So you see,
neither the reader who reads everything quickly nor the one who reads everything slowly is really a
good reader. Here are four important things to remember about the speed of reading:
Knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.
Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are instructions for making or doing
something, maths problems, science and storybooks which are full of important information. You must
read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.
Some things should be read quickly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment,
letters from friends, and bits of news from hometown papers.
In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you
go along. You will need to read certain pages quickly and then slow down and do more careful reading
when you come to important ideas.

In real life, most people seem confident. But when they can’t have things they want, they are
upset and lose themselves. Do you want t o learn how to be yourself? Here are
some suggestions.
Be kind to yourself
Appreciate what you have done. Everyone has different talents which can help to make the world
become a better one. Remember you don’t need to satisfy everyone. No matter what others think of you,
just be yourself .
Make good friends
Always make friends with people who are willing to make you feel better about yourself. Good friends
neither talk about how great they are nor praise you a lot. They enjoy being with you, not because you are
like them, but because you are yourself.
Think about your family
The values of your family are to give you what you really need. Maybe you can’t get help when you
have small problems. But you can learn how to depend on yourself. When you meet big problems, your
family will always be with you.
Hold on to your dream
Holding on to your dream can make you braver and stronger. On the way of achieving your dream,
you’ll know who you are and what you want. Even though you can’t achieve it, you’ll find you are better
and you can still live a normal life.
In a word, you are the only one. Accept yourself and be yourself. Being unsucc essful doesn’t mean
you’re not good enough. You just need a long way to go.

CCTV reported that every year Chinese people throw away a lot of food, it can feed 200 million
people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN world Food Program, there were 925
million hungry people around the world in 2010. Six million children die of hunger every year.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a
waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, lost her job because she took some leftover(剩余的)food home for her
son. Many people stood by her side and criticized(批评)the waste of food.
What should we do in our daily life to waste less food? Here are some tips:
1. Don’t order too much food in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all
the food you order, take the rest of it home.
2. Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.
3. Don’t keep too much food at home, especially for vegetables and fruit.
“Every grain on the plate comes from hard work”(谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦) It tells us
everybody must save food.
