英文原文
During the college speech course I taught,
I spoke about a Chinese student who,
after moving to the United States,
decided she wanted an English name to honor her new home.
"She chose the name Patience," I told the class,
"because she wanted to be reminded to be patient.
Every time someone called her name,
the message was reinforced."
I asked the students what names they would select for themselves.
After considering the question,
one young man raised his hand and said, "Rich."

也许真管用! [哈哈课堂 -- 校园类]
我在大学教演讲课程 ,(一次)上课时,我谈到一位中国学生,在来到美国后,希望起一个英文名来纪念她的新家。“她选择了Patience(耐心)这个名字”,我跟课堂上的学生说,“因为她想别人提醒她要有耐心。 每一次有人喊她名字的时候,这个信息就会被强调一次。” 我问我的学生他们想给自己起个什么样的名字。在琢磨了一会儿之后,一个男生举起了手,说,“Rich(发财)。”
