If aliens are discovered one day, scientists fear their language may make it impossible to understand them. But John Elliott of Leeds Metropolitan University in Britain has come up with a program that can figure out the structure（结构）of their language. He thinks that’s the first step in understanding what they are saying. Dr Elliott’s program would compare an alien language to a database （ 数据库） of 60 different languages in the world to look for a similar structure. He believes that even an alien language will have its own structure. “Language has to be structured in a certain way, or it will be hard to use,” he told New Scientist magazine. Research had shown that it is possible to know if a signal（信号）carries a language rather than a picture or music．Dr Elliott has gone a step further by finding a way to pick out what might be words and sentences. Because languages have different word orders, Dr Elliott has set up a library of the sentence structures of 60 human languages. If a message is received from outer space, it could be compared against this database. Scientists would then be able to see if it’s similar to any human language, or a mix of the languages. However, Dr Elliott also said that in order to translate what the aliens are actually saying, it may still be necessary to have a “code（密码）book”. 61．Why did Dr Elliott come up with the program?
