In 1972,Richard Sears,a young American
from the state of Tennessee,began learning
Chinese because of his fascination with
traditional Chinese culture.
"Chinese characters are the only ancient
script now still in use in the world and it's a
miracle of human history,"said Sears in fluent
Chinese.
As a primitive form of Chinese characters
and the oldest fully developed characters in China,
Jiaguwen,also called oracle bone inscriptions
(刻写文字),were first discovered in 1899and
aimed for their inscriptions on tortoise shells
and animal bones.
Drawn to the ancient language,Sears
often went back and forth between China and
the US.In 1994,he made a decision to make
the ancient Chinese characters available
online.Taking advantage of his professional
skill,Sears started programming and building
a database of oracle bone inscriptions on his
own.It took him seven years just to scan the
characters in Chinese ancient books.In 2002,
the Jiaguwen enthusiast's website was launched
122无敌原创同步必刷点英语·必修第一册
(发起,though with only a few page views
per day in the beginning.However,it surged
to 600,000 per day in 2011 after a blogger
recommended the site on Chinese social media
platform Weibo."I became a web celebrity
overnight and was given a nickname 'Uncle
Hanzi'"Sears said with a smile.Hanzi means
Chinese characters.
During the past 26 years,he has collected
a great deal of information on his website-
more than 96,000 ancient Chinese character
forms from archeological sources.Up till now,
the website has been continuously updated,
giving lovers of the ancient language from all
over the world free access to look through.In
order to reveal the mystery behind the ancient
characters,he spent a great deal of money and
time buying and going through dozens of books,
living on a very little money.
Since last year,Sears has been working
with a Chinese technology company on
a smartphone application for children to
learn about how the characters gradually
developed.The app is expected to be put into
use next year.
6.Which of the following is true of oracle bone
inscriptions?
A.They used to spread to other countries in
Europe.
B.It is over 100 years since they were first
discovered.
C.They are the only ancient language still in
use today.
D.They were named for their inscriptions on
hard rocks.
7.What can we infer about Richard Sears?
A.He has a good command of the computer.
B.He is promoting his website in the USA.
C.He developed a smartphone app for
adults.
D.He has made a fortune from the website.
8.What happened to Sears's website in
2011?
A.It was attacked by hackers.
B.It declined gradually.
C.It boomed suddenly.
D.It suffered a big loss.
9.What kind of life is Richard Sears leading
now?
A.He is now leading a wealthy life.
B.He is now leading a lonely life.
C.He is now leading a quiet life.
D.He is now leading a plain life.
