(2026·安徽合肥·三模)As we celebrated the 2026 Spring Festival, Chinese astronauts on the Tiangong space station were also celebrating: They grew fresh tomatoes in their “space vegetable garden” successfully.
The tomatoes were able to grow in space thanks to an aeroponic cultivation system (雾培养系统) . This system turns water into a fine mist (薄雾) , which easily reaches and feeds the plants’ roots.
Plants take in red and blue light to grow well, so the system uses red, blue, and white LED lights to help different fruits and vegetables grow. It also saves energy. “The result is this wonderful scene of space-grown tomatoes we have before us,” astronaut Zhang Hongzhang told Xinhua.
Astronauts have also successfully grown other vegetables, such as lettuce, in the “space vegetable garden”. Instead of soil, they use a special substrate (基质) that takes in water well and helps send water to the plant roots. When astronauts need to change plants, they can easily move them without causing any harm. This is very useful in space because there is no gravity (重力) .
Right now, the tomatoes are not only food for the astronauts on board, but they also bring joy with their look and smell. “Every time I pass by this area, I want to take a deep breath and enjoy the nice smell,” astronaut Wu Fei told Xinhua.
1.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.The aeroponic cultivation system.
B.The LED light system with red, blue, and white lights.
C.The tomatoes grown in space.
D.The special substrate used in space.
2.How does the substrate help plants grow according to Paragraph 4?
A.It takes in light regularly. B.It can recycle useless plants.
C.It helps water their roots easily. D.It can create Earth-like gravity.
3.Why are the space-grown tomatoes important?
A.They offer both food and joy for the astronauts.
B.They give astronauts a sense of being at home.
C.They have become the main food for the astronauts.
D.They help improve farming technology on earth.
4.What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To tell us how astronauts harvested fresh tomatoes in their “space vegetable garden”.
B.To introduce the success of growing vegetables in China’s space station.
C.To compare different ways of growing vegetables in space.
D.To explain why astronauts choose to grow tomatoes in space.
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.A 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍中国空间站航天员在太空菜园成功培育新鲜番茄,介绍雾培种植系统、专用基质等太空种植技术,同时说明太空蔬菜既可为航天员提供食物,也能带来精神愉悦。

(2026·辽宁盘锦·三模)On May 24, 2026, at 23:08 Beijing Time, the Shenzhou-23 crewed spaceship (载人飞船) blasted off (发射) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. It was carried by a Long March-2F rocket. About 10 minutes later, the spacecraft successfully separated from the rocket and entered its planned orbit (轨道). The launch was a complete success.
Three astronauts are on this mission. Zhu Yangzhu: He is an experienced astronaut who flew on Shenzhou-16. Zhang Zhiyuan: This is his first space flight. Li Jiaying: She is the first astronaut from Hong Kong and the fourth Chinese woman in space. Shenzhou-23 docked with (对接) the Tiangong Space Station on May 25. It completed a fast rendezvous and docking (交会对接) in just 3.5 hours. The crew will replace the Shenzhou-21 team. One astronaut will stay in space for one year, setting a new record for China’s longest space stay.
During their stay, the astronauts will work on over 100 scientific projects. These include experiments in space biology, new materials, and growing rice in space. They will also do several spacewalks (太空出舱) to repair and upgrade the station.
This mission (任务) is a big step toward China’s goal of landing on the moon before 2030. It also shows China’s progress in space technology and international cooperation.
1.When was Shenzhou-23 launched?
A.On May 24, 2026 B.On May 25, 2026
C.On June 24, 2026 D.On May 24, 2030
2.Who is Li Jiaying?
A.The first Chinese astronaut B.The first Hong Kong astronaut
C.The first Chinese male astronaut D.the fourth Chinese man in space
3.How long will one astronaut stay in space?
A.For one month B.For six months C.For one year D.For six years
4.What is the main goal of this mission?
A.To build a new space station
B.To carry out scientific experiments and test long-term space stay
C.To land on the moon
D.To walk on the moon and repair the station
(2026·安徽合肥·三模)As we celebrated the 2026 Spring Festival, Chinese astronauts on the Tiangong space station were also celebrating: They grew fresh tomatoes in their “space vegetable garden” successfully.
The tomatoes were able to grow in space thanks to an aeroponic cultivation system (雾培养系统) . This system turns water into a fine mist (薄雾) , which easily reaches and feeds the plants’ roots.
Plants take in red and blue light to grow well, so the system uses red, blue, and white LED lights to help different fruits and vegetables grow. It also saves energy. “The result is this wonderful scene of space-grown tomatoes we have before us,” astronaut Zhang Hongzhang told Xinhua.
Astronauts have also successfully grown other vegetables, such as lettuce, in the “space vegetable garden”. Instead of soil, they use a special substrate (基质) that takes in water well and helps send water to the plant roots. When astronauts need to change plants, they can easily move them without causing any harm. This is very useful in space because there is no gravity (重力) .
Right now, the tomatoes are not only food for the astronauts on board, but they also bring joy with their look and smell. “Every time I pass by this area, I want to take a deep breath and enjoy the nice smell,” astronaut Wu Fei told Xinhua.
1.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.The aeroponic cultivation system.
B.The LED light system with red, blue, and white lights.
C.The tomatoes grown in space.
D.The special substrate used in space.
2.How does the substrate help plants grow according to Paragraph 4?
A.It takes in light regularly. B.It can recycle useless plants.
