閱讀與回答問題。

請認真閱讀下面短文，并根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

April Fools’ Day is celebrated in many countries around the world. In France, it’s called “Fish of April.” In Scotland, the holiday is often called “Gowkie Day.” In Iraq, the holiday is called “April Lie.”

People have celebrated April Fools’ Day for a long time. Some believe the tradition comes from the ancient Romans more than two thousand years ago. It was a day of playing games and pretending to be someone else.

Others say the day for fooling began in France in 1564, when King Charles changed the yearly calendar. He moved New Year’s Day from April 1st to January 1st. Many people did not know about the change because of communication problems back then. Some people continued to celebrate New Year’s Day on April 1st. Other people called them April Fools and played jokes on them.

In the United States, April Fools’ Day is just a day of joking and playing tricks on friends. These kinds of jokes are also called pranks. These jokes usually end in the shouting “April Fools!”

Simple pranks, like telling a friend a funny lie or making prank phone calls, are still common. But, major companies also get in on April Fools’ Day fun in a much bigger way. A few years ago, on April 1st, Starbucks announced it was introducing new coffee cup sizes—Plenta and Micra. The very large cups, bigger than a human head, remained useful for customers even after finishing all that coffee. According to Starbucks, the cups could be used as a rain hat, a pot for plants, or a lampshade (燈罩).

More and more, people use smart phone apps to play pranks on their friends on April Fools’ Day. One smart phone app, Cat Facts, sends funny facts about cats to your friends’ phones, every day.

Do you have any ideas for April Fools’ Day pranks? Have your friends played pranks on you before? Tell us about one in the comments (評論) section!
