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．

1.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．

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

A．a champion B．George Washington

C．a fellow D．McCoy

3.Which of the following is TRUE about the days prohibition?

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．

4.What is the main idea of the whole passage?

B．The general use of the version．

     Chinese Valentine's Day (情人节) is on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar
calendar (阴历). It is a traditional festival for Chinese people. It comes from a romantic ancient
Chinese story. Niu Lang and Zhi Nv, two lovers who got separated by the Queen Mother of the
Western Heavens, can only meet that night. Thanks to this touching story, Chinese people regard
people also call it "Qixi".
     Meanwhile, February 14 of the solar calendar is European Valentine's Day. It is related to a
moving story too. The story goes that, there was a cruel king in ancient Rome whose name was
Claudius. He forbade the youth to get married during the wars, which made the lovers angry. There
was a monk named Valentine who was very angry at the rule and the king. One day a couple of
lovers came to his temple to ask for help to get married. Valentine helped them. Later, many couples
got married with Valentine's help. But Claudius knew it soon. He put Valentine to death cruelly. And
that day was February 14, the year of 270.
     Compared with European Valentine's Day, Qixi is less popular in China though it is a traditional
Chinese festival. There may be many reasons. First of all, the lunar calendar is not easy to remember
for most of the young people who are used to the solar calendar. Secondly, to many businessmen,
European Valentine's Day is not only a festival for lovers but also a good chance to make money.
Most of the flower shops can sell their flowers at a good price on European Valentine's Day while
the business drops in Qixi, because on European Valentine's Day lovers know more about how to
enjoy it. They exchange cards, flowers and go out to date. But most of them don't know the culture
of Chinese Valentine's Day or how to celebrate it.

Playing basketball isn’t a sport for women．That’s what Jewell Chapman’s high school headmaster told her in 1961 when he forbade the girls to play basketball．“We were very sad，”said Chapman，a player for her high school team of Des Moines．

Nearly 50 years later，Chapman is back on the basketball playground．She is 62 years old and plays for the Hot Pink Grannies，joining about 10 other women on a team whose uniforms are black trousers and hot pink socks．They play in the Iowa Granny Basketball League．

It is one of the twelve of basketball leagues for women over 50 that have spread up across the country．For some, it’s an opportunity to exercise and socialize；for others，it’s a once-refused chance to compete．“You see more and more senior women’s teams taking part in state and national competitions，”said Michael Rogers，a professor in sports studies at Wichita State University．“In the future it will be a common thing to have leagues like this．”

The women on the Hot Pink Grannies are good-natured but they are competitive when game time comes．“I think I’m tough，”says Hot Pink Granny Colleen Pulliam, 69, showing her biceps（二头肌）in a game against the Strutters, known for their bright yellow socks．
