問題詳情：

April 1st is a day on which, in some countries, people try to play tricks on others, if one succeeds in tricking somebody, one laughs and says, “April fool!” and then the person who has been tricked usually laughs too.

On April 1st, a country bus was going along a winding road when it slowed down and stopped. The driver anxiously（焦慮的） turned switches（開關，轉換器） and pressed buttons, but nothing happened. Then he turned to the passengers with a worried look on his face and said. “This poor bus is getting old. It isn’t going as well as it used to. There’s only one thing to do if we want to get home today. I shall count three, and on the word ‘three’, I want you all to lean（傾斜） forward suddenly as hard as you can. That should get the bus started again, but if it doesn’t, I am afraid there is nothing else I can do. Now, all of you lean back as far as you can in your seats and get ready.”

The passengers all obediently(順從地) pressed back against their seats and waited anxiously. The driver turned to the bus front and asked, “Are you ready?”

The passengers hardly had enough breathto answer. “Yes.”

“One! Two! Three!” counted the driver. The passengers all swung（搖晃）forward suddenly and the bus started up a great rate.

The passengers breathed more easily and began to smile with relief（放鬆）. But their smiles turned to a surprised and then a delighted laughter when the driver merrily cried, “April fool!”
