18种套磁礼仪 -1
套磁在申请美国研究生的过程中，是一个相当重要的环节，特别在申请博士时，甚至可以说是能够决定你最终是否能够被录取的决定性环节。那么，除了在内容上多加注意以外，我们还有什么需要注意的呢？
无论你是何种文化背景，在现今这个生活节奏越来越快的社会，某些细节也许就能体现你的与众不同。正所谓“细节决定成败”，与教授的交流中，有些小细节可能就会改变他对你的看法。一起来看看吧。
E-mail is forever. Once you send it off, you can't get it back. Once your professor has it, he or she owns it and can save it or, in the worst case, forward it onto colleagues for a good laugh—at your expense.
邮件是永久性的。一旦你把它发出去了，就不可能再收回来了。只要教授收到了邮件，他就主宰了这封邮件的命运，或者保存，或者是把邮件转发给同事博取一笑（这是最糟的情况）——后果自负哦。
E-mail goes where it's told. Check—and double check—to see that the right address appears in the "To" line. Just because your mom and your professor are both named "Lynn" is no reason to send all your love to Professor Lynn.
邮件要发到正确的邮箱里。检查，再检查，看“发送到”那一栏的地址是不是正确。仅仅因为你的妈妈和你的教授的名字都是"Lynn"，也没有理由把你所有的爱都寄送到了Lynn教授那里吧。
Professors might not be using the cruddy university e-mail system. So send it to the address they actually use, not the one on the university directory. (Check the syllabus or assignment sheet for clues.)
教授可能不使用大学的乱七八糟的邮箱系统。所以把邮件发送到他们真正在用的邮箱地址，而不是大学通讯录上的邮箱地址。（检查一下他们的个人摘要或者任务分配表来寻找一些线索。）
Professors might not open mail sent from luckydogpig@thepound.com. They prefer to open mail sent from more reputable addresses, like you@theCruddyUniversityE-mailSystem.edu.
教授可能不会打开一封发自luckydogpig@thepound.com的邮件。他们更喜欢打开那些来自比较有名的邮箱地址，就像you@theCruddyUniversityE-mailSystem.edu。
Subject lines are for subjects. Put a brief explanation of the nature of the e-mail (like "question about paper") in the subject line. Never include demands such as "urgent request—immediate response needed." That's the surest way to get your request trashed.
主题栏要紧扣主题。在主题栏要对这封邮件有一个简要的解释。千万不要包含一些要求，比如说“紧急请求或请立即回复”，可以很肯定的说，你的请求会像垃圾一样处理掉。
Salutations matter. The safest way to start is with "Dear Professor So and So" (using their last name). That way you won't be getting into the issue of whether the prof has a Ph.D. or not, and you won't seem sexist when you address your female-professor as "Ms." or, worse yet, "Mrs. This and That."
称呼很重要。最安全的开头方式是用“亲爱的×××教授”。这样的话你就不会再考虑这个教授是不是个博士或其他，并且当你称呼你的女教授“Ms”或者“Mrs.”也不会显得像是个性别歧视者。
Clear and concise is best. Your prof might get 25 or 30 E-mails a day, so, it's best if you ask your questions in as focused and succinct a way as possible. (Hint: it's often good to number your questions). And, if your question is very elaborate or multifaceted, it's best to go to an in-person office hour. You'll get better service that way.
清楚简洁是最好的。你的教授每天会收到25-30封邮件，所以如果你的问题很简洁明了那是最好的（一般把问题一条条列出来比较好）。如果你的问题表述的很详尽或者多层面的，最好在教授的办公时间面谈，这样教授就能够更有效地帮你解决问题。
Always acknowledge. If your professor deigns to answer—or send you the handout or reference that you asked for—be sure to tell him or her that you got it. That way he or she will think kindly of you next time they see you in class.
必须要告知教授已收到邮件。如果你的教授给你回答或者发送了你需要的资料，一定要告诉他你已经收到了。这样，下次在课堂上看到你的时候，他们就会觉得你是个不错的学生。
THIS IS NOT A SHOUTING MATCH. Don't write in all uppercase letters, which is an E-mail convention for anger or other strong emotions. No one likes yelling.
这不是大声嚷嚷的争吵。邮件不要都用大写字母来写，因为这是一种在邮件中表达愤怒或者其他强烈的感情的方式。没有人喜欢喊叫的。
