10．On my first job as sports editor for the Montpelier Leader Enterprise（MLE），I didn't get a lot  of fan mail，so my attention was caught by a  letter on my desk one morning．
    When I opened it，I read："Sweet piece of  writing on the Tigers．Keep up the good work．"It was signed by Don Wolfe，the  sports editor． Because I was a teenager（being paid the grand total of 15 cents a column inch），his words could not have been more inspiring，I kept the letter in my desk drawer until it got old．Whenever I doubted I had the right stuff to a writer，I would reread Don's note and walk on air again．
    Later，when  I got to know him，I learned that Don made a habit of  writing a quick，encouraging note to people in all walks of life，"When I make others feel good about themselves，"he told me，"I feel good，too．"
    Over the years，I've tried to copy Don and write uplifting words．In a world too often cold and unresponsive，such notes bring warmth．
    Why are positive note writers in such short supply？My guess is that many who shy away from  the  practice are too self-conscious．They are afraid they will be misunderstood．Thus it may cause troubles and problems．And it sounds insincere on the phone，Also，writing takes time；it is far easier to pick up the phone．
    The drawback of phone calls，of course，is that they do not last．A  note attaches more importance to our well-wishing．It is a matter of record，and our words can be read more than once savored （回味） and treasured，and they bring strength and love to us．
    Today  I sent a warm letter to my old boss．I  don't know if it will make his day，but it made mine．As my friend Don Wolfe said．"Making others feel good about themselves makes me feel  good too．"

56．What does the underlined  part"walk  on air"in Paragraph 2 probably mean？

Become confident．/Feel good about himself．/Become uplifted．

To encourage him，make him feel good and also the same to the writer himself．

The power of a letter from Don Wolfe．
60．Were you encouraged by anybody？And how？（No more than 25 words）

1．High heels，coffee cups and dogs have been regarded as three of the most dangerous things to have in a car．The seemingly harmless items have been responsible for more than 13million crashes and near misses on Britain's roads．
While men were responsible for the greater number of accidents reported，women played their part by driving in high heels．Putting fashion over function meant 44percent of female motorists had been prevented from using the pedals correctly by their high heels-with those aged 25to 34accounting for most of the incidents reported．
Those keen for a caffeine kick while driving can also create an accident if they leave empty coffee cups lying around their vehicle．Twenty percent of those surveyed admitted they had crashed their car or had a near miss after a deserted coffee cup or empty drink bottle rolled under their brake pedal（刹车踏板）．
However，it is not just wearing and eating that cause a threat from inside the car，man's best friend could also cause a catastrophe if not safely secured．One in eight motorists claimed to have had a scrape（刮檫）or near miss on the road due to their dog's wandering freely，climbing into the front seat or trying to escape through the windows．
The accidents meant drivers took their eyes off the road for more than three seconds each time，according to the poll of 2，000British motorists．The survey has found drivers will pick up an average bill of￡261.47for the damage caused by every crash．Londoners were the most at risk of an accident closely followed by motorists in the West Midland and Wales．
Janet Connor，a managing director，said many accidents could be avoided if people cleaned their cars regularly，as one in ten drivers involved in crashes admitted to driving inside a mountain of debris．She said，"The possible dangers and distractions outside the car are well known but as the evidence suggests，those within the car are often forgotten．"
