Passage One

Just over three years old and about four-feet tall. Methuselah is growing well. "It’s lovely." Dr. Sarah Sallon said of the date palm，whose parents may have provided food for the besieged Jews at Masada some 2 000 years ago. The little tree was sprouted in 2005 from a seed recovered from Masada, where rebelling Jews committed suicide rather than surrender to Roman attackers.
Radiocarbon dating of seed fragments clinging to its root, as well as other seeds found with it that didn’t sprout, indicate they were about 2 000 years old—the oldest seed known to have been sprouted and grown.
Sallon, director of the Louis L. Borick Natural Medicine Research Center at Hadassah Medical Organization in Israel, updates the saga of Methuselah in Friday’s edition of the journal Science.
One thing they don’t know yet is whethe
A. It will be made clear within a year or two.
B. It will remain a myth for at least a decade.
C. It won’t be known until several years later.
D. It won’t be decided without ancient knowledge.
