1. Why did the supermarkets run out of spaghetti one April Fool’s Day
2. What did the TV show say the special water could do
3. Why did the TV star’s joke have a bad ending
A reporter announced that there would be no more spaghetti as spaghetti farmers in Italy had stopped growing spaghetti.
It was said that the special water would help people lose weight.
He lost both his girlfriend and his show.
Read the passage again and answer the questions.
4. When did Orson Welles tell people about aliens from Mars landing on the earth
5. Why did so many people believe Orson Welles
6. Which of these stories is the most believable Which is the least believable Why
7. Would you be fooled by any of these stories
It was in October 1938.
Orson Welles made it sound so real that hundreds of people believed the story.
I think the story of a famous movie star is the most believable. The story of aliens from Mars is the least believable. Because the movie star is living with people. People never see any aliens on the earth.

Later that day, I knew he put toothpaste (牙膏) into the Oreo. I couldn’t believe I was fooled by him. I brushed my teeth again. After that, my brother gave me a box of Oreo, and said “Happy April Fool’s Day.” Finally I was happy to get these delicious biscuits.
