April Fool’s Day 愚人节
1st April is a day to be careful, or you could easily get tricked by someone. It’s April Fool’s Day, a “for-fun-only” observance, a day when people traditionally like to try to make a fool of someone else and laugh at them.
Origins(愚人节起源)
There are lots of theories surrounding the origins of the day. As we look back in time, many ancient predecessors of April Fool’s Day are found.
A French legendry 法国关于愚人节的传说
The most widespread theory about the origin of April Fool’s Day links the day to the calendar reform in France.
In 1582 France became the first country to switch from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar. This meant that the beginning of the year was moved from the end of March 25th and April 1st, various jokes would be played on him. This story might explain why April 1st became the date of the modern holiday.
Mythological roots 关于愚人节的神话起源
There have been quite a few attempts to provide mythological explanations for the rise of April Fool’s Day.
One story dates back to Roman mythology, particularly the myth of Ceres and Proserpina. In Roman mythology Pluto, the God of the dead, abducted Proserpina called out to her mother Ceres for help. But Ceres, who could only hear the echo of her daughter’s voice, searched in vain for Proserpina. The fruitless search of Ceres for her daughter was commemorated during the Roman festival of Cerealia and believed by some to have been the mythological antecedent of the fool’s errands popular on April 1st.
British folklore 英国民间传说
British folklore links April Fool’s Day to the town of Gotham. According to the legend, it was traditional in the 13th century for any road that the King travelled over to become public property. People in Gotham didn’t want to lose their main road and spread a false story to stop the King. A messenger was sent to Gotham after King John learned the people’s trick. But when the messenger arrived in Gotham he found the town was full of lunatics who were engaged in foolish activities such as drowning fish or attempting to cage birds in roofless fences. The King fell for the hoax and declared the town too foolish to warrant punishment. And ever since then, April Fool’s Day has supposedly commemorated their trickery.
Anthropological explanations 人类学的解释
Anthropological and cultural historians provide their own explanations for the rise of April Fool’s Day. According to them, the celebration traces its roots back to festivals marking the springtime.
Spring is the time of year when the weather becomes fickle, as if Nature is playing tricks on man, and festivals occurring during the spring traditionally mirrored this sense of whimsy and surprise. They often involved temporary inversions of the social order. Normal behavior no longer governed during the brief moment of transition as the old world died and the new cycle of seasons was born. Jokes, trickery, and the turning upside down of status expectations were all allowed.
In addition, the linkage between April Fool’s Day and the springtime is seen in another story that traces the origin of the custom back to the abundance of fish to be found in French streams during early April when the young fish had just hatched. These young fish were easy to fool with a hook and lure. Therefore, the French called them “Poisson d’Avril” or “April Fish”. Soon it became customary to fool people on April 1st, as a way of celebrating the abundance of “foolish” fish.
Celebrated 庆祝活动
In France today, April first is called “Poisson d'Avril.” French children fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends' backs. When the “young fool” discovers this trick, the prankster yells “Poisson d'Avril!” (April Fish!)
In Scotland, April Fool's Day is actually celebrated for two days. The second day is devoted to pranks involving the posterior region of the body. It is called Taily Day. The origin of the “kick me” sign can be traced to this observance.
Mexico and many Spanish-speaking countries have Innocent's Day, on December 28, to make “innocent” a person with jokes and hoaxes. The origin for the pranking is derived from the Catholic feast day Day of the Holy Innocents for the infants slaughtered by King Herod at the time of Jesus' birth.
The New York April Fools' Day Parade was created in 1986 to remedy a glaring omission in the long list of New York's annual ethnic and holiday parades. These events fail to recognize the importance of April 1st, the day designated to commemorate the perennial folly of mankind. In an attempt to bridge that gap and bring people back in touch with their inherent foolishness, the parade annually crowns a King of Fools from the parading look-alikes.
Gag gifts 恶作剧的礼物
What kind of pranks do people play on April Fool’s Day?
Starving students
A good prank for most university's is to print up a bunch of fake leaflets advertising a non-existent restaurant that has cheap eats and offers free food with the coupons printed on the leaflets. Most colleges have a student union, so the leaflets can be dropped off there and pinned up on various bulletin boards around campus.
When this is done, you can sit back and watch the marks wandering around looking for their free lunches.
Go Fish, Goldfish
When you are at someone's house and they are having a party or people over, go to their main bathroom and put about a dozen goldfish in their toliet. This prank is hilarious because people won't know what to do. They either go to the bathroom and flush the fish or they let them stay in there until someone scoops them out and they will end up with a dozen goldfish!
Sticky Glue
You'll need a little bit of lightly sticky glue for this one--I suggest simply using a glue stick and smearing it. Put the glue on someone's seat--imagine the trouble they'll have getting up!

光棍节英文：Singles Day
Singles Day falls on every November 11th, and as the name indicates, this relatively new holiday is one exclusively for people who are still living the single life.
每年的11月11日是“光棍节”。节如其名，这个新鲜的节日是专门为那些还过着单身生活的人们设立的。
Origin of Singles Day 节日起源
Betting 打牌
An old story goes that once there were four single men, leading very boring lives. None of them were married, or had lovers, or did anything exciting. They just sat around all day and played Mahjong.
故事从四个过着单调生活的单身汉说起。他们没有人结婚，连女朋友都没有，日子过得无精打采，终日打麻将度过。
One day they played Mahjong from 11 in the morning until 11 at night. During the game, no matter who won, the winning card was always the 'four columns' card (the card shows four independent, parallel columns in two lines). Even more of a coincidence, it was Nov 11, or 11/11. In order to commemorate the day, they nicknamed it Singles Day.
有一天他们打麻将从早上11点打到了晚上11点。奇妙的是，不管谁赢，都赢在了“四条”上。更加巧合的是，这一天正是11月11号。为了纪念这一天，他们给它命名为“光棍节”。
University culture 大学传统
Singles Day was first celebrated at various universities in Nanjing, capital city of Jiangsu Province during the 1990s. It got the name Singles Day because the date is comprised of four “ones”. These college students have since graduated, and carried their university tradition into society. Singles Day is now a special day for all fashionable youths.
光棍节最先在90年代的江苏南京各大高校兴起。之所以叫“光棍节”是因为这一天的日子有四个光棍一样的“1”。大学生们毕业了，把这个传统带到了社会上，光棍节就成了时尚青年们的一个特殊节日。
The main way to celebrate Singles Day is to have dinner with your single friends, but it's important that each person pay their own way to show their independence. People also hold 'blind date' parties in an attempt to bid goodbye to their single lives.
主流的庆祝方式就是和光棍朋友们一起搓一顿，而且一定要实行AA制。为了脱离单身，人们也会举办相亲会，介绍单身男女认识。

国庆节英文介绍
The National Day is a designated date on which celebrations mark the nationhood of a country. Often the National Day will be a national holiday.
The National Day is often taken as the date on which a state or territory achieved independence. Other dates such as the country's patron saint day, or a significant historic date are sometimes used. Most countries have a single National Day per year, though a few, for example, India and Pakistan, have more than one. Besides that, each of the two special administrative regions of the People's Republic of China, namely Hong Kong and Macao, celebrate the day of the establishment of the special administrative region, as well as the National Day of the People's Republic of China.
The importance attached to the National Day, and the degree to which it is celebrated, vary enormously from country to country. In France, for example, National Day is 14 July and is known as Bastille Day. It is widely celebrated and the French Tricolour is much in evidence, while the President of the Republic attends a military parade on the Champs-lysées of Paris. In the United States, the Fourth of July celebrations are widely celebrated with fireworks and barbecues. In the Republic of Ireland, St. Patrick's Day, March 17, has been the National Day and a Public Holiday for many years, and in recent years it has been observed as a full Public Holiday in Northern Ireland too. However, in the rest of the United Kingdom the constituent countries' patron saints' days are low-key affairs.
Most countries have a fixed date National Day, but some have movable dates. An example here is Jamaica, which celebrates its National Day on the first Monday in August. This commemorates independence from the United Kingdom which was attained on Monday, 6 August 1962 - the first Monday in August of that year. Another example is Thailand which celebrates the birthday of the King on 5 December. This date will change on the accession of the heir to the throne.
world cup (soccer), two international soccer tournaments, one for men and one for women, each held every four years. both tournaments are the pinnacle of international competition in the sport.
the men's world cup is considered the most popular sporting event in the world and is followed with passionate interest around the globe—the final game of the tournament was played to a television audience of more than 1 billion viewers. founded in 1930 with just 13 teams, the tournament now attracts entries from more than 140 countries. the teams must participate in elimination games within their own continents before qualifying to become one of the 32 nations participating in the final tournament. the women's world cup was first played in 1991 and has gained popularity steadily since then. more than 90,000 fans attended the finals of the tournament—one of the largest crowds ever to witness a women's sporting event. nearly 75 nations attempted to qualify for the 1999 event, which was a 16-team elimination fifa world cup (often called football world cup, the world cup, or simply world cup) is the most important competition in international football (soccer), and the world's most repreteam sport event.
organised by federation internationale de football association (fifa), the sport's governing body, the world cup is contested by men's national football teams which are fifa members.
the world cup is held every four years, but the qualifying rounds of the competition take place over a three-year period, using regional qualifying tournaments. 197 national teams entered the qualification tournaments for the world cup. the final tournament phase involves 32 national teams competing over a four-week period in a previously nominated host nation.
the world cup final competition (often called the finals), which has been held every four years since 1930, except in 1942 and 1946 when it was cancelled due to world war ii, is the most widely-viewed and followed sporting event in the world. it has a global audience of more than 3 billion people (half the world's population) exceeding even the olympic games.
today we’ll visit the great mosque. it stood west of the drum tower in huajue lane. it is the most sizable mosques in the city of xi’an which is also one of the oldest and best-preserved mosques in china.
standing outside of the great mosques, we can see this one is not like the mosques in arabian with splendid domes, skyward eaves, and dazzling patterns. this mosque possesses much chinese tradition in both design and styles outlook. it shows the culture combinations between china and other countries.
next, we are going to talk about how islam was introduced into china. islam was founded in the early period of the 7th century and was introduced to china in the middle of the 7th century. at that time, some merchants, travelers, and missionaries from arabic countries, persia, and afghanistan by land over the sink road and also by sea. many of them settled down and married the local women. their children became the first generation of chinese moslems. however, massive immigration of moslems to china was the result of genghis khan’s western expedition in the 13th century. he conquered vast of land from central asia to east europe, including the northern part of iran. many of the moslems were forced to enlist in the army. then in the 14th century, lots of moslems took part in zhu yuan zhang’s uprising. therefore, all the emperors of the ming dynasty ordered to protect the moslems for their great contributions. nowadays, there are 17 million moslems in china. the moslems in xi’an are mainly the hui people. ok, now, after known so much about the background history, you must curious about the great mosque. let’s get in and check it out.
it is said that the mosque was built in tang dynasty. however, judging from its architectural style, it was probably built in the ming dynasty.
after get into the first courtyard, we can see there is a wood material arch which is nine meters high in front of us. it was built earlier in the 17th century. with glazed tiles, grand corners, and upturned eaves, the arch has a history of 360 years but still preserved very well.
this way, please. we are going to the second courtyard. there are a lot of trees and flowers here. in the center of this yard is a stone gateway. two tall tablets, with dragons caved on each , are standing at the two sides of the gateway. they record the details of the repair works since it was built. one of these tablets carved “may islam fill the universe” was wrote by mi fu, a famous calligrapher in song dynasty who is also a moslem. the other one carved “royally bestowed” wrote by dong qichang in ming dynasty. these characters are treasures of chinese calligraphy.
keep going, we’ll arrive at the third courtyard. at the entrance of this yard, we can see a moon tablet. it was wrote in arabic and used to show the calculation of the hui calendars and the time for them to resume a meat diet. it was compiled by a man in charge of the mosque called xiao xining. then, we’ll notice the three-storeyed wooden structure building in the center. that is called the “retrospection tower”. the function of this tower is calling the moslems to come to worship. it is the highest point of this great mosques. now, everyone, on the southwest side of the tower, we can see five wooden houses, we called them the “water houses”. it is the place for moslems clean themselves before they attend their services.
next, the forth courtyard is waiting for us, keep walking, please. the structure in the centre was called the “phoenix pavilion”. in fact, it is a complex of three small buildings. the six-gabled buildings in the central part and the two three-gabled buildings on each side which make it looks like a flying phoenix. just like the name of the pavilion. across the pavilion, we will find a fish pond. passed it, we will see the platform, the prayer hall is the just on the top of the platform where take more than 1,000 prayers at the same time. the prayer hall is facing to the east. that’s really not quite chinese. that is the custom of moslem that the prayer hall has to back of the mecca. in china, mecca located to the west of china.
as you know, moslems are lived in china almost everywhere. you can ask whether moslems in china and other moslems shared the same custom? the answer is obviously yes. they worship five times a day: at dawn, at noon, in the afternoon, at dusk, and at night. female worshipers attend their services in a separated place from their brothers, usually at home.
i don t know whether you have met a moslem before, if you do, you may notice they never eat pork and animal blood. why? in koran, pigs have been mentioned four times as being “unclean”. moslem respected koran very much, they everything followed it, so they never eat pork. just one thing in china that moslems can not followed. according to koran, a man can marry 4 wives, but as the law of china, a man can marry only one wife. that might be the different thing between the moslems in china and other moslems.
after visiting this great mosque in huajue lane, you can see that they lived happy and freedom here. you know, in china each citizen has the freedom of religions belief, and each group has the freedom of to keep their own custom. surely, the moslems in china enjoy equal rights as the majority nations and their religious beliefs and customs are respected everywhere in the country.

It is a “spring” festival, and it is an occasion for the wholefamily to leave the home and to sweep the graves of their forebears.

清明节是一个纪念祖先的节日。主要的纪念仪式是扫墓，扫墓是慎终追远、郭亲睦邻及行孝的具体表现;基于上述意义，清明节因此成为华人的重要节日。清明节是在仲春和暮春之交，也就是冬至后的106天。扫墓活动通常是在清明节的前十天或后十天。有些地域的人士的扫墓活动长达一个月。
ORIGIN起源)
Qing Ming is popularlyassociated with Jie Zi Zhui, who lived in Shanxi province in 600 . Legendhas it that Jie saved his starving lord's life by serving a piece of his ownleg. When the lord succeeded in becoming the ruler of a small principality, heinvited his faithful follower to join him. However, Jie declined hisinvitation, preferring to lead a hermit's life with his mother in themountains.
Believing that he could force Jie out by burning the mountain, the lord orderedhis men to set the forest on fire. To his consternation, Jie chose to remainwhere he was and was burnt to death. To commemorate Jie, the lord ordered allfires in every home to be put out on the anniversary of Jie's death. Thus beganthe “cold food feast”, a day when no food could be cooked since nofire could be lit.
The “cold food” festival occurs on the eve of Qing Ming and is oftenconsidered as part of the Qing Ming festival. As time passes, the Qing Mingfestival replaced the “cold food” festival. Whatever practice isobserved，the basic observation ofQing Ming is to remember one's elders by making a special effort to visit theirgraves, ashes or ancestral tablets. To make the visit even more meaningful,some time should be spent to remind the younger members of the family of thelives and contributions of their ancestors, and the story of Jie Zi Zhui whochoose death over capitulation.
谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都会联想到历史人物介子椎。据历史记载，在两千多年以前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介子椎不惜从自己的腿上割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，作了国君(即晋文公，春秋五霸之一)，大事封赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随从，惟独介子椎拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。
晋文公无计可施，只好放火烧山，他想，介子椎孝顺母亲，一定会带着老母出来。谁知这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。为了纪念介子椎，晋文公下令每年的这一天，禁止生火，家家户户只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。
寒食节是在清明节的前一天，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而久之，清明取代了寒食节。拜介子椎的习俗也变成了清明扫墓的习俗了。无论以何种形式纪念，为了使纪念祖先的仪式更有意义，我们应该让年轻一代的家庭成员了解先人过去的奋斗历史，当然，还要学习介子椎宁死不屈的气节。
节日风俗：盛行的习俗与食俗
◎荡秋千 这是中国古代清明节习俗。秋千，意即揪着皮绳而迁移。它的历史很古老，最早叫千秋，后为了避忌讳，改之为秋千。古时的秋千多用树桠枝为架，再拴上彩带做成。后来逐步发展为用两根绳索加上踏板的秋千。荡秋千不仅可以增进健康，而且可以培养勇敢精神，至今为人们特别是儿童所喜爱。
◎蹴鞠 鞠是一种皮球，球皮用皮革做成，球内用毛塞紧。蹴鞠，就是用足去踢球。这是古代清明节时人们喜爱的一种游戏。相传是黄帝发明的，最初目的是用来训练武士。打马球，也是端午之戏之一。马球，是骑在马上，持棍打球，古称击鞠，三国曹植《名都篇》中有“连翩击鞠壤”之句。唐代长安，有宽大的球场，玄宗、敬宗等皇帝均喜马球。章怀太子墓中《马球图》，画出了唐代马球的兴盛：画上，二十多匹骏马飞驰，马尾扎结起来，打球者头戴幞巾，足登长靴，手持球杖逐球相击。《析津志》记辽国把打马球作为节日的传统风俗，于端午、重九击球。《金史礼志》也记金人于端午击球。宋代有“打球乐”舞队。至明代，马球仍流行。
◎放风筝 每逢清明时节，人们不仅白天放，夜间也放。夜里在风筝下或风稳拉线上挂上一串串彩色的小灯笼，像闪烁的明星，被称为“神灯”。过去，有的人把风筝放上蓝天后，便剪断牵线，任凭清风把它们送往天涯海角，据说这样能除病消灾，给自己带来好运。
◎扫墓 清明扫墓，谓之对祖先的“思时之敬”，其习俗由来已久。明《帝京景物略》载：“三月清明日，男女扫墓，担提尊}，轿马后挂楮锭，粲粲然满道也。拜者、酹者、哭者、为墓除草添土者，焚楮锭次，以纸钱置坟头。望中无纸钱，则孤坟矣。哭罢，不归也，趋芳树，择园圃，列坐尽醉。”其实，扫墓在秦以前就有了，但不一定是在清明之际，清明扫墓则是秦以后的事。到唐朝才开始盛行。《清通礼》云：“岁，寒食及霜降节，拜扫圹茔，届期素服诣墓，具酒馔及芟剪草木之器，周胝封树，剪除荆草，故称扫墓。”并相传至今。
