They gave him the nickname"Uncle Hanzi".Sears was once a computer engineer in the USA. When he was young, he developed an interest in Chinese characters. In 1972, when Sears was only 22, he decided to learn Chinese. He bought a one-way ticket to Taiwan, China to begin his study.After several years of studying, Sears still found writing Chinese characters difficult. One piece of advice he received was to learn the evolution (发展）of Chinesecharacters, because it could help him remember them. Since then, Sears has made his own research to study how Chinese characters were formed, and built up his own database(数据库）.In 1990, he came up with the idea of sharing the etymological (词源的）information ofChinese characters on the website. In 2002, Sears made the website free for anyone who was interested. Just by typing a Chinese character on his website, people can find out the shapes and evolution of the character."Many people think I am crazy - spending all my money and time on the website. But for me, it's just an interest," Sears said. Years of living in China has turned"Uncle Hanzi"into"Grandpa Hanzi", but one thing that hasn't changed is the love Sears has for Chinese characters.When did Sears begin to study Chinese？（不超过10 个词）How did Sears learn writing Chinese characters？（不超过15 个词）What makes Sears keep studying Chinese characters? （不超过10 个词）六、单词拼写/单词释义（本大题共5小题，共5.0分）50.The house is always empty.
