21、 The letter arrives from a school that your son told you is his dream school. You dare not open it,instead,you hand it to him when he arrives home from school. You watch as his eyes light up and you know this is the beginning of something. You are just not sure what. Your son insists that the coach must really want him since he took the time to write him a letter. Is this in fact true?Did he write other kids and if so how many?How would you know?
The simple fact of the matter is that you can read very little into that first letter. Coaches cast a wide net in the first few stages of the recruiting(录取)cycle. That letter may in fact,be the first and last time your son ever hears from that particular coach. Think about it:if he has not seen your sons transcripts or his standardized test scores,if you have not visited the school,if he has no knowledge of your financial needs,can it be anything significant?
So how do you treat these letters or emails?Is there some format you can apply?Say tor instance,three letters mean real interest…or three letters and a call means a greater degree of interest?
My experience in deal with cases of various applications is that answers will not come automatically. Call the coach and find out how real the interest in fact is. "Is my son a top recruit in your mind?" "How many players at his position will you be recruiting this year?" By asking these simple and direct questions,you as a parent,will have established a dialogue and hopefully figured out how much interest,if any really exists. However,here comes the challenge. Applicants and parents are vague with coaches about their intention and level of interest all the time. In fact,the coach's situation is no less confusing than yours. He is fighting a similar battle on multiple choices. There is little clarity on either end.
Enjoy that first letter. Let's hope it is one of many and let's hope you apply a bit of realism with a bit of wishful thinking about how happy your son should be when this is all over.

23、 Most Western people slept in long nightshirts until the early 20th century. British colonists brought home with them comfortable sleepwear worn by inhabitants of their colonies. 【1】
By the 1920s, the fashion trend had found its way across the Atlantic to America’s shores. 【2】 Envious of the appearance and comfort of men’s pajamas (睡衣), women soon began trading in their nightgowns for fashionable trousers with jacket tops (上衣) made from silk for nighttime sleepwear.
【3】 The 1934 film It Happened One Night, a romantic comedy starring Claudette Colbert and Clark Gable, is sometimes attributed to having started the trend of women wearing this style of sleepwear. In one scene, Colbert is seen wearing a pair of pajamas borrowed from the character played by Gable.
【4】 Kids also found them to be warm and comfortable for sleeping, as well as for watching TV before going to bed. Often decorated with cartoon characters or kids’ favorite action heroes, a new set of pajamas given as a gift during the holidays became something of a tradition.
Today, it’s become acceptable in some circles for women to leave the house wearing sleepwear while dropping the kids off at school in the morning, shopping or running errands (办事). 【5】 A judge in the US has attempted to ban sleepwear for people appearing in his courtroom.
