愚人节风俗英文

愚人节也称万愚节，是西方也是美国民间传统节日，节期在每年4月1日。愚人节与古罗马的嬉乐节(Hilaria，3月25日)和印度的欢悦节(Holi，到3月31日为止)有相似之处。在时间的选择，看来与“春分”(3月21日)有关。在这时间天气常常突然变化，恰似是大自然在愚弄人类。对于愚人节的起源众说纷纭。一种说法认为这一习俗源自印度的“诠俚节”。该节规定，每年三月三十一日的节日这天，不分男女老幼，可以互开玩笑、互相愚弄欺骗以换得娱乐。 节日习俗愚人节时，人们常常组织家庭聚会，用水仙花和雏菊把房间装饰一新。典型的传统做法是布置假环境，可以把房间布置得像过圣诞节一样．也可以布置得像过新年一样，待客人来时，则祝贺他们“圣诞快乐”或“新年快乐”，令人感到别致有趣。 4月1日的鱼宴。也是别开生面的。参加鱼宴的请帖，通常是用纸板做成的彩色小鱼。餐桌用绿、白两色装饰起来．中间放上鱼缸和小巧玲珑的钓鱼竿，每个钓竿上系一条绿色飘带，挂着送给客人的礼物或是一个精巧的赛璐珞鱼，或是一个装满糖果的鱼篮子。不言而喻，鱼宴上所有的菜都是用鱼做成的。 在愚人节的聚会上，还有一种做假菜的风俗。有人曾经描述过一个典型的愚人节菜谱：先是一道"色拉"，莴苣叶上撒满了绿胡椒，但是把叶子揭开后，才发现下面原来是牡蛎鸡尾酒；第二道菜是"烤土豆"，其实下面是甜面包屑和鲜蘑；此后上的菜还有用蟹肉作伪装的烧鸡和埋藏在西红柿色拉下面的覆盆子冰淇淋。饭后，客人还可以从药丸盒里取食糖果。 不过愚人节最典型的活动还是大家互相开玩笑，用假话捉弄对方。有的人把细线拴着的钱包丢在大街上，自己在暗处拉着线的另一端。一旦有人捡起钱包，他们就出其不意地猛然把钱包拽走。还有人把砖头放在破帽子下面搁在马路当中，然后等着看谁来了会踢它。小孩们会告诉父母说自己的书包破了个洞，或者脸上有个黑点．等大人俯身来看时，他们就一边喊着"四月傻瓜"。一边笑着跑开去。总之，每逢愚人节这一天，动物园和水族馆还会接到不少打给菲什(鱼)先生成莱昂(狮子)先生的电话，常常惹得工作人员掐断电话线，以便减少麻烦。Fool's Day, also known as Wan-Yu Festival, the West is also a United States folk festivals, festival period of April 1 of each year.
