Final answer:

The sentence should read: Ms. Turner was surprised to find out that I had come from the same town she does. This utilizes the past perfect tense correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is B. Was; had come. This question deals with the past perfect tense which is used to describe an action that happened before another action in the past. The verb phrase 'had come' indicates an action (coming from the same town) that occurred before the action of finding out. The word 'was' is used because the action of being surprised happened in the past.
