In some countries, particularly the UK, you must play your April Fool's Day joke before midday, otherwise, you become the fool.

One of the most famous April Fool's jokes ever was the Swiss Spaghetti Harvest documentary, broadcast by
BBC TV in 1957.Many viewers thought that this was a genuine documentary and called in asking where they could buy “spaghetti plants”.
Another example of successful April Fool's jokes was the article published by English Club on April 1, 2008 entitled(题为) “UN to Ban ‘Unnecessary' Languages”.This generated(产生) almost 300 comments immediately, many from visitors who believed the article.

Many people play different kinds of jokes on others on April 1st, but not every joke can end up being very funny.
One April Fool's Day, my good friend Mike told me we would have a school sports meeting instead of having classes that afternoon.So I went to school without taking my schoolbag.When I arrived at school, I found I was fooled by Mike.The whole afternoon I didn't learn well.I said nothing to Mike, but I felt I just couldn't believe him any more.
Though we can make some jokes on others on April 1st, it all depends on the person or the situation.Some unsuitable jokes may hurt the relationship between you.So before you want to fool others, please think twice.
