四、任务型阅读。
请阅读下面这篇文章，根据所提供的信息，完成信息卡。
April 1st is a day to be careful, or you could easily get tricked by someone.It's April Fool's Day, a day when people traditionally like to try to make a fool of someone else and laugh at them.There are lots of theories surrounding the origins of the day, but one explanation is connected with the change in the calendar in the 16th century, which meant that April 1st was no longer the beginning of the year.Those who still celebrated the New Year on 1st April were called fools.So what kind of pranks (恶作剧) do people play on April Fool's Day Well, there are lots of simple tricks that you can play on your friends.For example, you could wear a black sweater and pull a piece of white thread through it, so that people try to pull it off.You could change the time on someone's alarm clock so that they're late for work.Or glue a coin to the floor and see how many people try to pick it up.
All these are smallscale practical jokes which you might play on one another person or a few people.But there's also a tradition of large companies attempting to fool a lot of people.For example a burger restaurant once claimed that they were introducing a lefthanded burger!
In particular, the media often try to make people believe something which is not true.Newspapers publish some ludicrous (滑稽的) stories every year, although some of them are actually true.It's entertaining to try to guess which stories are true and which are fake.In the April Fool's stories, they often include a clue to the fact that it's a joke.For example the name of an “expert” quoted in the article might be an anagram (拼写游戏) of “April Fool”.
Radio and television programmes have also fooled many people by broadcasting reports which are untrue.One programme announced the invention of an amazing new weightloss product—water which contained minus calories!
And one of the most famous hoaxes ever was broadcast (广播) by the BBC itself in 1957! A very serious news programme called Panorama reported on the poor spaghetti harvest in Switzerland, and showed pictures of farmers picking spaghetti from trees! Hundreds of people were taken in and wrote to the BBC asking how to grow their own spaghetti.

Last Sunday afternoon, some of my best friends and I went to play football in the open ground inside our neighborhood. We really had a good time! Suddenly I kicked the ball so hard that it flew at a window. It was broken! An angry woman looked out of a window, shouting at us. We were all too frightened! She asked who did that. I went up and said sorry to her. The woman told us not to play football around next time.
What an unlucky day!
