【解析】
试题分析：这篇短文的作者在年轻的时候，收到过一位著名作家约翰先生的一张便条。就是因为一件简单的鼓励的话语，就让作者在人生道路上获得了巨大的信心与勇气。从而告诉我们，也要及时的向那些需要我们帮助的人伸出援助之后，也许仅仅一张便条就会带给他们莫大的信心与自信。
1.句意：我的第一份工作是为小报当体育编辑。work as担任，以……身份而工作。故答案填as。
2.句意：我非常吃惊一天早晨在我的桌子上出现了一个信封。由上句句意作者从来没有收到过读者的来信可知，作者感到吃惊。故答案填surprised。
3.句意：由于我是一名新手，他的话让我倍感兴奋。a green hand新手的意思。
4.句意：每当我怀疑我是否有成为一个好编辑的能力时。由下句I would read John's note and become confident again.我就会读约翰先生的便条，使我重树信心。可以推测作者对自己不自信，怀疑自己的能力。故答案填doubted。
5.句意：我得知他经常写便条鼓励各个领域的青年人。由上文知，约翰曾写便条鼓励过作者，加上此句的句意可知，答案应填encourage。
6.句意：当我使别人快乐时，我也开心。由上下句句意知，约翰开心是源于对别人的帮助。故答案填others。
7.句意：可是，为什么我们生活中像约翰先生这样的写便条的作家很少？由句子中few一词，可推知此处是表转折意义。
8.句意：写作需要更多的时间。花费时间用take，writing作主语视作单数，故答案应填takes。
9.句意：结合语境可知此处指的是拿起电话来也不难，故答案填easier。
10.句意：便条是一种好的记录方式，话写在便条上后就可以不止一次的读。结合语境可知答案为read。
