April
Fool’s
Day
is
a
celebration
that
takes
place
in
different
countries
around
the
world.
It
happens
on
April
1st
every
year
and
is
a
day
when
many
people
play
all
kinds
of
tricks
and
jokes
on
each
other.
One
April
Fool’s
Day,
a
reporter
in
England
announced
that
there
would
be
no
more
spaghetti
because
the
spaghetti
farmers
in
Italy
had
stopped
growing
spaghetti.
Many
people
ran
to
their
local
supermarkets
to
buy
as
much
spaghetti
as
they
could.
By
the
time
people
realized
that
the
story
was
a
hoax,
all
of
the
spaghetti
across
the
country
had
been
sold
out.
In
another
famous
trick
a
TV
show
in
England
reported
the
discovery
of
special
water.
They
said
this
water
would
help
people
lose
weight
and
that
one
customer
had
already
lost
a
lot
of
weight
in
just
four
months.
By
the
end
of
the
day,
more
than
10,000
people
had
phoned
the
TV
station
to
find
out
how
to
get
this
water.
Many
April
Fool’s
jokes
may
end
up
being
not
very
funny.
A
famous
TV
star
once
invited
his
girlfriend
onto
his
show
on
April
Fool’s
Day.
He
asked
her
to
marry
him.
The
lady
was
so
happy
because
she
really
wanted
to
get
married.
However,
when
she
said
yes,
he
replied,
“April
Fool!”
That
little
joke
didn’t
have
a
very
happy
ending.
The
TV
star
lost
his
girlfriend
and
his
show
was
cancelled.
One
of
the
world’s
most
famous
tricks,
however,
happened
in
October
rather
than
in
April.
In
that
month
in
1938,
actor
Orson
Welles
announced
on
his
radio
program
that
aliens
from
Mars
had
landed
on
the
earth.
He
described
where
they
had
landed
and
told
how
they
were
moving
across
the
United
States.
Welles
made
it
sound
so
real
that
hundreds
of
people
believed
the
story,
and
fear
spread
across
the
whole
country.
By
the
time
police
officers
announced
that
the
story
was
a
hoax,
thousands
of
people
had
left
their
homes.
Read
the
passage
again
and
answer
the
questions.
Why
did
the
supermarkets
run
out
of
spaghetti
one
April
Fool’s
Day?
Because
a
reporter
announced
that
there
would
be
no
more
spaghetti
as
spaghetti
farmers
in
Italy
had
stopped
growing
spaghetti.
