If a person tells you that something is “the real McCoy”，he is telling you it is the real thing，not a copy or replacement．There is nothing false about “the real McCoy”．It is the best that can be found．

There are different ideas on how the expression came into common use．Perhaps the most popular story is about a famous boxer，Charles Kid McCoy，a one-time world famous welter-weigh champion．One day，McCoy was having a drink in a bar with a lady friend．A man came up and began to talk to her．He was not a nice man．

McCoy wanted no trouble．He asked the man to leave．He said．“I'm Kid McCoy．”McCoy thought his name was so well-known that he didn’t need to say more．But the man did not believe him．“Oh，yeah?” he said．“Well，if you are Kid McCoy，then I am George Washington!” And he continued to speak to the prize-fighter’s friend in all unpleasant way．

McCoy hit the man with a fist－not hard－actually it was really a light touch．But the man fell to the ground，unconscious．Ten minutes later，when he came to sense，he called out. “That was the real McCoy!” And so，as told by kid McCoy，that was how the expression “the real McCoy” got started．

There are other versions，however．One is that the expression goes back to the days of prohibition（禁止）when it was illegal in the United States to sell whiskey．Although whiskey was against the law，many sold it．And many sold bad whiskey．They were not afraid to do so，because there was so little that anybody could do about it．Buying whiskey，good or had，was as illegal as selling it．

But there was one whiskey dealer who was honest．His name was McCoy．He refused to sell bad whiskey．He sold only the best imported whiskey．His product became recognized as the best．It was called “the real McCoy”．

The expression survived prohibition days and soon became a general term．One way or another，no matter how the expression began，“the real McCoy” is an expression that everyone understands．It means the one and only—the best one．They are indeed words of special praise．

What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

A．It is about the exact meaning of the version．

B．It tells how a person gets his name．

C．It shows how to tell the real from the false．

D．It explains how to find the best．

In the third paragraph，“the prize-fighter” refers to______．

A．a champion B．George Washington

C．a fellow D．McCoy

A．A national law forbade the sale of alcoholic drinks．

B．Bad whiskey was not allowed to sell．

C．People at that time preferred nothing but whiskey．

D．The days of prohibition resulted in MeCoy’s selling wine．

What is the main idea of the whole passage?

A．The story of a famous boxer．

B．The general use of the version．

C．The expression and its story．

D．The friendship between an athlete and a seller．

“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I was disappointed. “Don’t worry. One day your luck will change.”

I didn’t pay attention to her words. After finishing my college education, I decided to look for a job in a radio station. I wanted to host a sports programme. I went to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station. But I got turned down every time.

In one station, a kind lady said to me that I hadn’t got enough experience. “Get to a small station and work for some time,” she said.

When I went back home, my dad told me that a businessman had opened a store and needed someone to help him. But again, I didn’t get the job.

I felt really down. “Your luck will change,” Mum said to me. Later, I tried another radio station in Iowa. But the owner, a nice man, told me he had already had someone to work for him. As I left his office, I asked, “How can someone be a sports announcer (播音员) if he can’t get a job in a radio station?”

I was waiting for the lift when I heard the man call, “What did you mean? Do you know anything about football?” He let me sit in front of a microphone and asked me to try to imagine that I was giving my opinion on a football game, and finally I succeeded.

On my way home, Mum’s words came back to me, “One day your luck will change, Son.”

Everyone wants to be a pop star. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a pop star. 71 You get to sing and dance and make voices. People are willing to pay you tons of money and, of course, many fans love you. It’s a perfect life; what could be the problems?

72 And one of the biggest problems is “crazy” fans who live their idols (偶像) too much. Andy Lau, the Hong Kang superstar, experienced that last year. A fan was so crazy about Andy that she persuaded her parents to spend all their money and travel to Hong Kang to meet him. Andy is a nice man so he met the girl and talked with her for a few minutes.

That should have been the end of the story, but it wasn’t! 73 In despair (绝望), the father jumped into the sea and said it was because Andy Lau had made him poor and had made his daughter a “crazy” fan. It’s a very sad story and it shows what can happen when ordinary people become crazy pop fans.

We like famous persons, and we enjoy listening to them. 74 And some people think that, since they love the pop star, the pop star should love then back.. That’s crazy! 75 They have their own families and friends. Their job is to entertain us, not to love us. So, don’t be a “crazy” fan, be a good fan, and just appreciate the joy, the happiness and the excitement that your favorite pop star bring you.

A. Well, clearly, there are lots of problems.

B. Sometimes we think we know them as well as we know our closest friends.

C. It seems like the coolest job in the world.

D. The family had spent all their money to meet Andy and they had no money to return home.

E. They hated the superstar.

F. Pop stars have their own personal lives.

G. In fact, there is no difficulty in becoming a pop star.
