A familiar food had been transformed into a highly processed industrial【C8】______. McDonald’s fries now come from huge【C9】______plants that can process two million pounds of potatoes a day.

C
解析
本句是在探讨麦当劳薯条之所以具有独特口味的成因,冒号后是对前述内容的解释,前面否定了“土豆品种、加工技术、烹制设备”这三项可能的因素,冒号后的三个谓语即分别给出对应的解释,麦当劳薯条的口味之所以独特不在于上述三方面有何特别之处,因为其他店也跟它一样或差不多,故选C项similar“类似的,相似的”。第二个谓语部分中的from the same largeprocessing companies也提示了此空应选与same差不多含义的词。
