He has studied ancient Chinese plays, novels and literature, and has authored or translated a number of influential books published in English and other languages. The 70-year-old Dutch Sinologist recalled his half-century-long romance with Chinese culture during a recent visit to Beijing. As a child, the vivid descriptions of China in Nobel and Pulitzer Prize-winner Pearl S. Bucks books sparked Idemas interest in the country. He later read classic Chinese literature and spent whole days pouring through works at the National Library of China. While many other experts on China focused on the countrys economic transformation, Idema continued to study traditional Chinese literature. “There were scholars studying law, religion and society, but not traditional Chinese literature, which was my personal interest，” Idema explains. Finding reference books for his research, especially regional publications, used to be a huge challenge, and Idema used to spend a lot of time collecting books and other materials during visits to China. Now it is much more convenient with the Internet. Idema usually chooses less-known subjects for his research and tries to get firsthand materials. In recent years, he has devoted himself to translating Chinese folk tales and writing about Chinese folk society and folk culture. “Traditional Chinese culture is a passion. I have been studying it for 50 years and will continue to do so，” says the retired professor. 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了荷兰汉学家Idema对中国古代戏剧、小说、文学50年的不懈研究的故事。 1．What does the underlined word “sparked” in Paragraph 2 mean?
