His record and his efforts were celebrated. But questions remained about a tomato that had gone missing while he was in space. Now, the mystery tomato has been found. In his time on the International Space Station (ISS), Mr. Rubio, along with other astronauts, worked on several experiments, one of which aimed to grow tomatoes in a soil-free environment using only air and water. The goal of the experiment was to learn how to grow fruits and vegetables to help feed astronauts on long trips through space. When the plant finally produced tomatoes, all of the astronauts on board the ISS got to taste them. Except Mr. Rubio. He had lost his tomato. Mr. Rubio had put the tomato in a plastic bag, and had brought it out to show to some students who were on a video call. Mr. Rubio believed that he had used Velcro (魔术贴) to attach the bag to part of the ISS. But when he came back afterward, he found that the bag was gone.

One of P NASA’s leaders even jokingly asked Mr. Rubio if he’d eaten the tomato. “I wish I had at this point,” he replied, “because I think everybody thinks I did.” Last week, the mystery was solved, in a video call with NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli. She said she could now clear Mr, Rubio’s name: “We found the tomato,” she announced. NASA has not said where the crew found the tomato or what it looked like when it was finally discovered. 16 What is the aim of the tomato-growing experiment? A. To see how air and water influence the growth of tomatoes. B. To help astronauts learn the skill of growing fruits and vegetables. C. To develop a method for a continuous food supply for long space travel. D. To compare the taste of tomatoes grown in space and those grown on Earth. 17. What did Mr. Rubio do with the tomato before realizing it was missing? A. He put it near a bag of Velcro. B He used it as part of an experiment. C. He shared it with other astronauts on the ISS. D. He presented it to students during a video call. 18. What does the underlined word “teasing” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Criticizing. B. Kidding. C. Helping. D. Admiring. 19.
