Hi Boris, the term "true" is used in the given sentence to be a property of
some fact in the model. Having a true belief about something is a measure of
your certainty about the facts in the model. So a true belief is a fact about
something in the model (usually a relationship) that you are confident of.
This is based on your past experiences with the relationship. You have no
contradictory / alternatives to the relationship. "True" does not need any
matching process to be performed between a current experience and what is in
the model.
You are right, a model does not fall from the sky, it is composed of all the
experiences you have had starting from raw inputs.
However I would not use the phrase "recognition all the way down" because
recognition start with the raw inputs and is done on the way up from the
simpler inputs to the more complex but specific things that are composed of the
simpler inputs. So for me recognition is "all the way up" a compositional
hierarchy.
