It was my first week in Kansas City, the USA. My friend, Sharon, asked me whether I'd like to try McDonald's for a 1 lunch. So, there we went. It has been quite popular in China, so I could easily pick something that I 2 have in Beijing - a Super burger, a coke and French fries. To my 3 , the burger was much bigger. I thought to myself, after all, most Americans are bigger than Chinese. They must need 4 for lunch.
With my lunch set in front of me, I wanted some tomato sauce to 5 with my French fries, so I went to the 6 and asked him for some tomato sauce.
“What?” he looked surprised. “Tomato sauce?”
I started to feel uncertain. I had studied English back home for six years. He 7 be able to understand me. Maybe, it was not 8 tomato sauce here.
“I'm not sure what you call that thing,” I tried again, “ 9 it's American food, and you put tomato sauce on everything. ”
“Sorry, Miss,” he said, “we don't have tomato sauce here.”
I walked back to Sharon. She smiled and asked me to 10 for a while. A few minutes later, she was back with several. So, they even used the same package. Oh, no, it's 11 right there - “Ketch-up”.
“Why? What's the 12 between this Ketch-up and the tomato sauce?” “I don't know why we call it 13 this name,” said Sharon.“Never think about that.”
Sharon's smile suddenly made me 14 that the difference between Ketch-up and tomato sauce lay not so much in the food itself as in our different 15 .

When a person is curious about something, it means he is 1 in it and wishes to know more about it. There is 2 wrong with curiosity in itself. Whether it is good or bad depends on what people are curious about.
Curiosity is 3 silly or wrong. Some persons with nothing to do are full of curiosity about what their 4 are doing. They are 5 to know what they are eating or drinking, what they are 6 home or taking outside, or 7 they have come so early or late. To be interested in these things is 8 because they are 9 at all. It is none of their 10 to know what their neighbors do or are doing. Such curiosity is 11 not only 12 but also harmful. For most probably, it 13 to small talk which often brings harm, shame of disrespect to others, and thus 14 their feelings.
On the other hand, there is a 15 curiosity--the curiosity of wise men, who wonder at all the great things and try to 16 all they can about them. Columbus could never have found America if he had not been 17 . James Watt would not have made the steam engine 18 his curiosity about the raising of the kettle lid. All the discoveries in human history have been made 19 a result of curiosity, 20 , the curiosity is never about unimportant things which have few or nothing to do with the happiness of the public.
