四、閱讀測驗【請在下列各題中選出最適當的答案】
Three tomatoes are walking down the street: Papa Tomato, Mamma Tomato, and Baby Tomato. Baby Tomato starts
lagging behind. Poppa Tomato gets really angry, goes back to the baby tomato, and squishes him... and says, “Catch up!”
Chances are that you may not know June 5th is America’s National Ketchup Day, but you should guess that the sauce
“ketchup” (also spelled “catsup”) sounds like “catch up” in English so that the above joke appears amusing. Ketchup is
the dominant term in American English and Canadian English, while catsup, first appearing in a Jonathan Swift short story,
is more commonly used in some southern US states.
Many assume that it’s an American condiment. After all, what’s an all-American hamburger and French fries without
ketchup? Or, can you imagine having hotdogs or hash browns without this red sauce? Some believe, however, that this
fast-food dressing originally came from Southeast Asia where it was called ke-tsiap. But the flavor was different from
today’s version. Ke-tsiap, also known as fish sauce, was made from salty, fish-flavored water with spices.
As ke-tsiap made its way around the world, the taste changed from country to country. It’s thought that tomatoes were
introduced to it in the 1800s in America. It was there that tomatoes became ketchup’s main ingredient. The sauce quickly
became a favorite on fish and meat. Heinz, the world’s largest ketchup producer, began making tomato ketchup
commercially in 1871.
Today, ketchup is found around the world on sweet and sour pork in Taiwan, omelet-topped fried rice in Japan, pizza
in Brazil and spaghetti in Sweden. People may use it differently; yet, the world seems to agree that no kitchen is complete
without this popular condiment.
