How do you feel when you are fooled by others No doubt you feel bad. There is nothing worse than falling for a joke and being a fool except one day. Yes, that's April Fool's Day. 1. _ But everyone knows to be careful on the first day of April.
The headmaster at my school decided to play an April Fool's joke on the students when I was in high school. On March 31, she announced that our school would hold a“Dress to Impress” day.2. _
Girls were told to wear formal dresses and smart jackets, while a suit jacket and tie for each boy would be best. The teachers, we were told, would do the same.
On April Fool's Day, many of us students came to school dressed in our best clothes.3 _ In the morning, all of us got together on the playground, waiting for the headmaster. She would speak to the students. To our surprise, she wasn't dressed up at all. Instead, she wore jeans, running shoes and a T-shirt. The teachers also got dressed casually like her. “April Fools!” she said, with a big smile on her face. “We just wanted to remind you that teachers have a sense of humor, too!”
Surely, all the teachers weren't April Fools.

It was a Christmas night. I was an unlucky nurse who had to work at such a beautiful festival. When I was complaining(抱怨) about it, three people appeared at my desk—a tired woman and two children.
“Are you all sick ” I asked doubtfully because they seemed all right.
“Yes,” the woman answered weakly and lowered her head.
But when they started to present their problems, things became unclear. One child had a fever, but his temperature was OK. The other child had an earache, but she could not tell me which ear hurt. It seemed that the mother was pretending(假装) to cough.
Something was wrong. But I only explained that it might take a while before a doctor could meet them. “Take your time, please,” said the mother. I checked their charts— no address. Suddenly I knew they were homeless while the hospital was warm.
The family huddled(蜷缩) together under the Christmas tree, smiling and talking with each other sweetly. Quietly, I went back to the nurses' station and told them what happened in the waiting room. It was just like God sending us a gift on Christmas Day. The nurses' station suddenly came back to life. All the nurses went into action for“a Christmas emergency(急诊)”.
We took out our meals for our Christmas“patients”. We also put together oranges and apples as presents. We tried to exceed the needs a family who only wanted a warm place on the Christmas night. Later, the little girl kissed me and said, “Thanks for being our angel(天使).”
