Many companies，websites，and newspapers make (伪造的)stories on April 1st.These fake stories are also called hoaxes. Here are some famous hoaxes from history.

Socks to lose weight
In 2000，The Daily Mail said that a health club had produced a new kind of socks to help people lose weight. These socks could make body fat out of feet. If someone puts these socks on his or her feet，he or she could lose weight.

Whistling carrots
In 2002，a British supermarket published an ad in The Sun saying that they had successfully developed “whistling (吹口哨的)carrots”. These carrots grew with air holes. When they were being cooked，these air holes would make the vegetable whistle.

More sheep，less
global warming
In 2007，realclimate.org，a website in New Zealand，posted a report about global warming. According to a study by a scientist of New Zealand，large numbers of sheep help stop global warming because their white wool reflects the sun. As the sheep population gets smaller，the ground takes in more heat from the sun. So the planet gets hotter.

Flying penguins
In 2008，the BBC said that they took photos of some penguins that were flying in the air near Antarctic (南极洲).They offered a video clip (剪辑)of these flying penguins. The BBC explained that these penguins flew thousands of miles to the rainforests of South America to spend the winter.

The story of a dog that saved his owner，a lady who has poor vision (视力)，Audrey Stone，spread quickly after it was reported. The service dog's actions avoided a sad ending.
Figo, an eight－year－old dog，is Audrey Stone's third service dog.“He protects me and loves me. We are friends，” Stone said.
On a Monday，Stone and Figo were on their way back from their “usual daily walk”. When they prepared to cross a street，“I gave him the command (命令)to cross the street，” Stone said.
“I said, ‘Forward. ’And we were in the middle of the street and it happened so quickly，but people said he just jumped at the school bus and saved me，” Stone said.
The school bus was carrying two children to a learning center. Luckily they were not injured.
Stone said she didn't remember much of the accident，but one image (画面)stayed with her: a wounded Figo slaying by her side，holding up his wounded right paw (爪子).
“I knew he was hurt and I was in a mess，” she continued.“I remember Figo standing there，looking at me，trying to get close to me，but he didn't know what to do. Because he knew I was hurt.”
Figo had an operation (手术)on his right front leg. Figo's vet (兽医)said his leg was getting better.
Stone said she was sure of one thing，“I'd have been sad if he had got killed.” But，she added，they both lived to tell the story.
