A: Hi, John. How was your April Fool's Day?

B: It was terrible. One of my friends invited me to a costume party.

A: That {#blank#}1{#/blank#} good. Why do you say it was terrible?

B: By the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} I got to the party, I realized I had been fooled, because I was the only one that was wearing a costume.

A: Oh, I see. That was really terrible.

B: What {#blank#}3{#/blank#} you, Ann?

A: I was tired on April Fool's Day.

B: What was {#blank#}4{#/blank#}？

A: My friends told me that we were going to have a math test the next day. I studied the whole night and was exhausted(精疲力竭的).

B: What {#blank#}5{#/blank#} next?

A: Then the next day I found they had fooled me. We didn't have a test.

B: Oh, poor Ann. You should go and have a good rest.
