   April Fool’s Day is a day for all of us to have some fan and play a few jokes on our friends or even on strangers. The story below will show what I mean. Enjoy it!

On April 1, all kids will have a safe place to surf the Web. Nations around the world have started a plan to make a new World Wide Web — just for kids! You can now surf safely without running into anything not proper for kids.

Beginning on April 1, all kids have to register (注册) with the World Wide Web for Kids(www4k). You will no longer be able to surf the “www”.

The World Wide Web for Kids, will only contain selected (挑选的) websites proper for kids under 13. A group of experts will review all content on it. All kids under 13 must surf this section of the World Wide Web — if kids under 13 are caught on the “regular” Web they may face serious fines.

All the nations can track (跟踪) all computers online and will be able to find if a child under 13 is surfing the wrong section of the Web. You will be kicked out of the regular “www” and sent to the new World Wide Web for Kids section. Your parents will then be told that you have been on the wrong Web.

All proper websites will now have to use “www4k”. For example, children’s familiar http://kidsturncentral.com will now be located at http://kidsturncentral.www4k.

Register now before you are told you are on the wrong Web! It’s free.

Back when I was still in elementary school，my parents were always talking about a 【小题1】（compete）of some sort called the Model United Nations（MUN）.It was supposed to be awesome，and only those whose English was really good could have the ability 【小题2】（join）in.

As for me，I always wanted to be a representative of a country and fight 【小题3】 its rights and benefits. It would be so cool to sit in a huge hall and to fight a battle without smoke. 【小题4】（fortunate），I had to wait till I got in middle school to attend it，【小题5】 there was no MUN in my elementary school. So that kind of enthusiasm【小题6】（explain）why the first thing I did when I got in middle school was to sign up for the MUN. The preparation of the meeting was long and 【小题7】（bore）.I had to sit there listening to a fellow chairman's speech about the MUN，【小题8】 wasted my homework time. I didn't learn anything at all，mainly because I was busy denying him rather than listening.

Anyway，this morning，I was supposed to go to my first MUN meeting as the representative of the Republic of Ireland. But I forgot where it happens. So my dad and I ran around my school for an hour before finally knowing that we had come to 【小题9】 wrong place. What was awkward（令人尴尬的）was that a bunch of junior 【小题10】（pupil）were having their Adulthood Ceremony.
