How to avoid unnecessary ripping?

I am new to MakeMKV and I used MakeMKV for the first time yesterday. I just chose the selected content by the software by default. After ripping, I found the software made 3 MKV files and actually the videos in the files are exactly the same. The only differences in the files are the audio contents. All the 3 files have English sound tracks. Each file has some foreign language sound tracks that the other 2 files don't have. Is there a way for me to see the sound tracks before ripping and choose only the video content with the sound that I want? Now the ripping took triple time and I got some sound tracks that I am not interested in at all. I wasted 2/3 of the time just to get the sound tracks that I don't understand at all.

Thanks for the advice.
