The correct signal word that fills in the blank correctly is "Next." This is because the sentence before the blank states a sequence of events: "First, Goldie tried the soup in the blue bowl..." The phrase "Next, Goldie tried the soup in the red bowl..." would logically follow this sequence. Therefore, the signal word "Next" makes the most sense in this context.
