ALIENS ARRIVE!

I wonder what it means.” He drew some lines on a piece of paper.
Dad looked at them as if they were crazy. “Since no one else saw these aliens, I refuse to believe you. Now go to school!”

What’s the Truth Behind the “Aliens”?
Many people have stories about seeing aliens or UFOs. Most of these stories have simple explanations, though.
1. ______ Sometimes, people see planes, weather balloons, or even natural phenomena like meteors and think they are UFOs. The light in the sky that Tina saw in the story might have been a crashed spaceship, but it could also have been something else.
When people are scared or excited, their brains can play tricks on them. 2. ______ In Tina and Tom’s case, the “alien” they saw might have been a human from the crashed spaceship, but their fear made the person look like an alien to them.
3. ______ The strange language the children heard could have been the astronauts talking in a different way, not an alien language. The “terrible noise” the aliens made might have been just the sound of the damaged spaceship.
4. ______ The marks on the spaceship that Tom drew spelled “EARTH”, which shows the spaceship was from our planet. Sometimes, the most “unbelievable” stories have the most ordinary explanations.
A. Our eyes and ears don’t always tell us the truth.
B. UFO sightings are often just misunderstandings of common things.
C. Aliens from other planets visit Earth all the time.
