April Fool's Day is supposed to be a day to play jokes on others in hopes of getting a good laugh and making one feel like a fool. However, the April Fool's Day of 1989 was quite different for my mom and me.
  That day my friend Jimmy and I were playing a game. I had dropped down from a bar(横木) many times in the past without ever having a problem, but that day the simple act of dropping to the ground became a nightmare(噩梦). I broke my arm.
  Jimmy's dad heard my crying and rushed out to see what was going on. When he saw the problem, he quickly put me into his truck and went inside to telephone my mom and let her know he would take me to the hospital. As that day was April Fool's Day, Mom was not buying it and really thought all this was a big joke. Mom was finally convinced by Jimmy's mom When she saw me, she broke down in tears because she felt so bad-she originally thought this was just a big prank.
  I guess one could compare this to the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf . Since I had pulled pranks before, it is no wonder that my mom didn't believe it. I as well as my mom was made to look like a fool that day. We both learned a valuable lesson.
愚人节通常是人们为了找乐子或者糊弄对方而相互开玩笑的一天.但对我母亲和我而言,1989年的那个愚人节却与众不同.
那天我和朋友吉米正在玩游戏.我曾无数次的从横木上跳下也未曾发生过意外,而那天却个噩梦.因为落地时的一个小失误导,我摔到了胳膊.
吉米的爸爸听到我的哭声冲出来看发生了什么.他发现我受了伤,立刻将我抱上了他家的卡车,然后进屋打电话告诉我母亲他得把我送去医院.因为那天是愚人节,我母亲以为是个玩笑完全不相信.幸好最后吉米的妈妈说服了她.当看到我的时候,她愧疚地哭了,因为她之前一直以为这是个恶作剧.
我猜人们会把这件事比作是《狼来了》.因为我过去喜欢恶作剧,我母亲毫无疑问的不会相信这是真的.我跟母亲那天像极了傻瓜,当然我们也都学到了宝贵的一课.
