More and more Chinese are having English names, but not everyone
is good at finding one. Why not offer them some help? An American girl
called Lindsay Jernigan is now teaching people how to get better English
names.
While working in Shanghai, Lindsay met many Chinese people with
strange English names. Some of them chose a lucky number of “Seven,”
a favorite fruit, “Apple,” and a cartoon character, “Snow White.” Others
had names like “July” and “Rabbit.”After noticing the problem, Lindsay had an idea. She quit her job
and set up a website (bestenglishname.com) to help Chinese people get
better English names.
The website helps people in two ways. After they take an online
survey, people will get five English names based on their personal
information, such as age, job and even future plans. This costs 18 yuan.
People can also meet with Lindsay to talk about their English name. But
that costs more.
Now, about 2,000 people each day visit the website. Most of them are
preparing to study or work abroad. Lindsay is planning to offer them
more help, such as helping them write resumes(简历).

One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen,
a restaurant where everyone from the poor to the most powerful came for
breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elder, short man, whose hair
was disorder. He was wearing an old hat and was alone. I asked if I might
join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We carefully began a conversation and spoke about a lot of things. We
never introduced ourselves. I thought that he might have no money and
not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the
counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked, “May I get you
something?”
“A coffee would be nice.”Then I bought him a cup of coffee, we talked more, and he accepted
another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and went
to the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked, “How did you
get to know Mr. Galbreath?”
“Who?”
“The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of
Churchill Downs.”
I could hardly believe it. I was talking, buying coffee, offering a free
breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most
powerful men!
My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to
treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and to meet
another human being with kindness and sincerity.
