Different behavior of interrupt exceptions

Question

When I run Test1 no interrupt exception is shown, but when I run Test2 an interrupt exception appears.

I really want to know reason behind this.

public class Test1 {
        public static void main(final String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
            int a = 10;
            Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
            System.out.println(a);
            }
        }

When I run the following program, the exception is there, and I am really not sure why, even if it is not waiting (i.e. the queue is empty).

 public class Test2 {
        public static void main(final String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
            BlockingQueue<Integer> q = new LinkedBlockingQueue<Integer>(2);
            Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
            System.out.println(q.take());
            }
        }

Please help me understand why java is behaving like this.

Thanks.
