D. Answer the questions （根据以下内容回答问题）（12 分）
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 high school student, was last seen on Friday night. That evening at 8 p.m.,
Justin's friends called him to play baseball. 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 on bed at that time. Suddenly I was woken up at midnight by a
bright light outside my window." Kelly said.
"I pulled back the curtains and 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. "There was a flash
of light and I heard Justin shout, and then the UFO just disappeared. Tm 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. Mr Foster was not home that night. When Justin did not
show up for lunch the next day, Mrs Foster became worried and told her husband to call the
police.
Some people in Dover also say that they saw aliens that night. "It's happened to me! ” said
Mrs Smith. "The aliens took me aboard the UFO for research. Luckily, they sent me home without
any injuries. The whole experience was terrible! I haven't been sleeping well since I returned
home. I think Justin was taken away by them, too."
When asked about whether Justin was taken by aliens, Detective Peterson, who has taken
charge of the case, told reporters. "Sometimes people make up stories. There's really no hard proof
that aliens took him. So we are looking into other possibilities as well. We will not give up until
we find out what happened. "

79.What time was Justin last seen on Friday night?
80.Where did Justin disappear according to Kelly?
