The custom of playing tricks on friends on April 1st is believed to have originated (發(fā)源于)in France in the middle of the 16th century.

These people soon became the butt (嘲笑的對象)of jokes and tricks by their friends and neighbours because they continued to observe(紀(jì)念,慶祝)April 1st as New Year’s Day.

If you want to go adventure (歷險)with friends,you should first plan it as follows : Things to eat. Make a list: How many people? How many days? How many meals? Then work out what food to take and how much. For each day that you stay,take some soup,rice,meat or fish,cooking oil,milk or cheese,and some fruit and bread or biscuits with some jam or honey(蜂蜜). For the other meals,lunch and dinner,have the soup for one and cook a big meal with the fish or meat for the other.
Now,how much?
In a day,two hungry young people for example,will eat a can or a packet(小包)of soup,a can of meat or fish,a small packet of rice,a loaf(條)of bread or a packet of biscuits,a carton (紙板盒)of milk,perhaps a piece of cheese,and some fruit and vegetables.
