Frederick Callison has been posting up outside of a Sacramento Smart & Final grocery store for the past two years and his method of looking for help has finally paid off.

Michael Marteen noticed Callison while shopping with his family on Feb. 24. Used to seeing homeless people ask for food and money, Marteen found it refreshing to see someone making an effort to find work in such difficult situations.

When Marteen approached him, he noticed Callison was sitting on a sleeping bag with several resumes(简历)neatly laid out, along with a sign that read“need work and food.”

“When I asked if I could see his resume, he stood right up to hand one to me and then started telling me all about his experience as if it were an interview,”Marteen told TODAY. “I’ve been in situations where I had nothing and had to try extremely hard to get work, and there he was doing that, so I have a lot of respect for him.”

Marteen bought him a bottle of water and some ravioli(馄饨)and then took a picture of his resume to post on Facebook, not knowing if anything would come of it.

Sure enough, someone came across his post and offered Callison a job as a cook at a downtown restaurant called Pizza Rocks.

“He was excited about landing a job and very grateful for the opportunity,” Marteen said. “He was up the night before studying the menu for hours.”

The restaurant gave him clothes to wear and a friend is providing Callison with a place to stay until he can get back on his feet.

“It’s easy to look at someone and not see anything but a homeless man, but after talking to him I realized he’s so much more than that,” Marteen said. “He’s a well spoken, cool and friendly guy who knows what he wants and is going after it.”

Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it.

Two US-based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, conducted an online survey last year. They wanted to know what young people in American colleges knew about geography, U.S. foreign policy, recent international events, and economics.

The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26 years. All of them presently attending, or having previously graduated from, a 2- or 4-year college or university.

The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U.S. government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.

Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the Internet. They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.

Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.

The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.

Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information to students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues.

B. It was an online survey conducted by two US universities.

C. It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26.

D. It aimed to find out what the young people know about America.

2.What’s one reason survey organizers give for young people’s lack of knowledge?

A. The poor quality of the US university system.

B. Young people’s unwillingness to travel abroad.

C. The sources from which they get their information.

D. Their lack of interest in knowing more about the world.

The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666.In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together.Over one hundred people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.

The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King’s baker in Pudding Lane.The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window into the roof.A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door.Then it spread quickly into Thames Street.That was the beginning.

By eight o’clock three hundred houses were on fire.On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames.Tuesday was the worst day.The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul’s and the Guildhall were among them.

Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire, “People threw their things into the river.Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment.Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.”

The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire.With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.

After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect(建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them was the new St Paul’s Cathedral.

The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.
