April Fools’ Day
愚人节
It was April 1st.A bus was going down a country road. Then it slowed down and stopped. The driver tried hard to start it, but he couldn’t.
那天是4月1日,一辆公共汽车沿着一条乡村小路行驶。然后它减速并停了下来。司机努力尝试启动它,但是他没有做到。
Then he turned to the passengers and said,"This bus is too old. I can’t start it. Now we can only do one thing. I will count to three, and on the word three, I want you all to lean forward together. Then the bus will start again."
然后他转过来对乘客说:“这辆公共汽车太旧了。我不能启动它。现在我们只能做一件事。我会数到三,在数到三时,我想让你们所有人一起向前倾。那样公共汽车将会再次启动。”
All the passengers said yes, and the driver began to say,"One! Two! Three!" When they heard"Three" , they all leaned forward hard, and the bus started again.
所有乘客都说好,于是司机开始说:“一!二!三!”当他们听到“三”的时候,他们都努力向前倾斜,公共汽车又启动了。
When the driver said"April Fools!", the passengers suddenly remembered it was April Fools’Day and they all began to laugh.
当司机说“四月傻瓜!”时,乘客们突然记起来今天是愚人节,他们都开始大笑起来。
