请阅读下面短文,根据所提供的信息,回答五个问题。要求
所写答案语法正确、信息完整切题。
Police in America have stepped up their search for a fifteen-year-
old boy who went missing three days ago in Dover, New Hampshire.
This case has received great interest because it is said that aliens
visited when the boy disappeared.
Justin Foster, a senior high school student, was last seen on
Friday night at home.Witnesses (目击者) say they saw Justin walking
towards his house at 10:45 p.m.Justin's sister, Kelly, says she heard
her brother return home at about 11 p.m., but she didn't see him with
her own eyes.
“I was in bed at that time.Suddenly I was woken up at midnight
by a bright light outside my window.” Kelly said.
“I saw a large spaceship flying outside.It had blue lights all
around it.Standing inside were lots of aliens.I was frightened!”
Kelly said that the spaceship then moved towards her brother’s
bedroom.“I heard Justin shout, and at the same time the UFO
disappeared.I'm sure the aliens took him away.”
Kelly then ran and woke up her mother.However, Mrs.Foster
thought that Kelly was having a bad dream, so she sent her back to
bed.“It must be a bad dream...I thought it couldn't be true because
there were no aliens in the world.” When Justin did not show up for
lunch the next day, Mrs.Foster became worried about him and told her
husband to call the police.
Some people in Dover also say that they saw aliens that night.“I
think aliens must have taken the poor boy!It happened to me before!”
said Mrs.Smith.
When asked about whether Justin was taken by aliens, Detective
Peterson told reporters, “Sometimes people make up stories.There's
really no hard proof that aliens took him.We are looking into other
possibilities as well.We will not give up until we find out what
happened.”
1.What time was Justin last seen on Friday night
At 10:45 p.m.
2.Where did Justin disappear according to Kelly
At home./In his bedroom.
3.What did Mrs.Foster think of Kelly's words at first
She thought Kelly had a bad dream.
4.Who else was taken away by the aliens
Mrs.Smith.
5.(开放性设问)What kind of person was Detective Peterson?
Why do you think so
He was responsible/serious/careful/persistent because he believed
proof/didn't jump to a conclusion.(答案并不唯一,言之有理即可)

The Mystery in the Neighborhood
I used to live in a quiet and peaceful town.But last week,
something strange happened.The quiet life was broken, as if someone
had thrown a stone into the peaceful water.
We now know what has happened in the town.In the beginning,
when the night fell, we would always hear a noise outside the
windows.It was so strange because we had never heard it before.The
unusual noise made the whole town in fear.Some people thought it
was just the sound of children having fun while others believed that it
must be animals such as dogs or cats.The fear hung over the town.
Finally, the mystery was solved through the effort of the policemen.
The source of the noise was two monkeys that ran away from the
zoo.How funny!
And now people in the town are not scared any more.The night in
the town turns quiet and peaceful again.

参考范文:
I had a frightening and exciting experience last Thursday night. After
finishing my homework, I was going to bed.Just then, I heard the sound of
footsteps outside my door.I wondered who it could be.It couldn't be my
father or my mother, because they had gone to their friend's party.They said
they would come back home late.It couldn't be a thief, either.A thief would
feel afraid and be very quiet.Perhaps it could be my neighbor.He may have
come back home from work.He always works late in the office.I said to
myself, “Be brave! There's nothing to be scared of.” Then I opened the
door and all my friends were there saying “Happy birthday”.I thought
they'd forgotten! How excited I was!
