【题目】B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文）
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 quick lunch. So, we went. American fast food is quite popular in China, so I could_______ pick something that I used to have in Beijing-a super burger, a coke and French fries, though the names of the food were in English.________, the burger was much bigger than what I had back home. I thought to myself, after all, most Americans are bigger than Chinese. They must need more for lunch.
With my lunch set in front of me, I wanted some tomato sauce to_______my French fries, so I went to the waiter and asked him for some tomato sauce.
"What?" he looked puzzled. "Tomato sauce?"
I started to feel uncertain. I had studied English for six years. He should be able to understand me without any problems. Maybe, it was not called "tomato sauce" here, I________.
"I'm not sure what you call that thing," I tried again, "but it's American food, and you put tomato sauce on everything."
"Sorry , Miss," he said, shaking his head, "but we don't have tomato sauce here. Never have."
I walked back to Sharon and asked her the question. She smiled and asked me to wait for a moment. A few minutes later, she came back with several packages that I had asked for. So, they never used the________ packages for the tomato sauce. Oh, no, it's written right there, "Ketchup".
"What's the difference between Ketch-up and the tomato sauce?" I asked.
"I don't know________we call it this name," replied Sharon. "Never thought about it."
Sharon's smile suddenly made me realize that the difference between Ketch-up and the tomato sauce lay not so much in the food itself as in our different cultures.

A. how如何，B. where 哪里，C. why 为什么，D. when何时。根据"Never thought about it."可知，沙伦不知道为什么称番茄酱为“Ketchup”，故选C。
根据前后文的语境，认真辨析选项里的单词或短语的词义，结合词性，短语，句型，时态，语态和主谓一致，选出正确的选项。例如小题2，句意：令我惊讶的是，这个汉堡比我在家吃的大得多。A. To my surprise令我感到惊讶的是，B. For example例如，C. In addition除了，D. In this way用这种方法。根据the burger was much bigger than what I had back home.可知，在美国吃的汉堡比在家吃的大得多，因此这是令人惊讶的，故选A。
