On April 1st, April Fool’s Day, friends play fun tricks on each other. One year at college my friends and I wanted to play a really big trick on our teacher, Jason. He was a fun guy who loved tricks.
My friends and I bought 300 balloons and a lot of colored paper. Then we began blowing all the balloons up and filling them with the colored paper. It took us all day, but in the end we blew up all 300 balloons.
Mark, Jason’s roommate, gave us the key to their apartment. When Jason left, we went into the apartment, and put all the balloons in Jason’s bedroom and bathroom. We hid in the bedroom and bathroom and waited for Jason to come home.
When Jason came back, he went into the bathroom first. He saw the balloons and shouted, “What !” And then we began popping (爆裂) the balloons. There was colored paper everywhere! Jason laughed and laughed. “OK guys,” he said. “That was funny, but I’m tired and I’m going to bed.” He went into his bedroom and saw the other balloons. “Come on guys,” he said. “No, no!” I began popping the balloons. Jason began laughing again and shaking his head. “This is just too much, Scott!” he cried, as the colored paper was falling all over the room. After that, we helped Jason clean up the colored paper.

No Car Day was first started by 34 cities in France on September 22, 1998. It was started to protect the environment. By now, more than 1,000 cities around the world had a No Car Day.
The first No Car Day in China was in Chengdu in 2001. Other cities, including Taipei. Shanghai and Wuhan, also support the day.
In Beijing, more and more people are joining in the campaign（活动）. It asks drivers to leave their cars at home for one day each month and walk or ride a bike to work.

Up to now, more than 200, 000 drivers have shown their support. “We can’t control the weather, but we can choose not to drive,” said Wu Zhonghua, a car club chairman. Beijing is trying to have more blue sky days this year. In the first quarter of 2007, Beijing only had 52 blue sky days. This was 11 days less than the number for the same period last year.
