Read the text. Choose the correct answers to the questions. Homelessness is a social problem, and it is the condition of people who lack regular housing. Homeless people are often considered to have little necessities such as food, shelter, money or medical help. They would usually spend their night uncomfortably in the streets or temporarily in a hostel. Some people may reside in their friend's house on a sofa or on their floor with a blanket. Some of the factors why people become homeless, are domestic violence, relationship breakdown, fleeing persecution from another country, drugs and alcohol misuse, family disputes, and mental health problems. Another common reason why people are homeless is that they cannot keep a steady job, therefore they cannot pay for their rent, or they cannot pay their bills, so resort to being homeless. Some people receive little income from their jobs, which is not enough for them to pay all the bills or buy enough food or get themselves any clothes. Homeless people would turn to begging in the streets to provide some money for themselves and purchase the little food they can get with money. Last year, Birmingham had the highest number of homeless people in the country, with figures reaching to 925 households. Homelessness can be caused by physical or sexual abuse from their families, and so they may choose to run away and seek refuge in the streets. For homeless people, there are good and bad days. The good days include the homeless getting a reasonable amount of money, in which they may receive 10 pounds by panhandling an hour. The bad days involve inflation or recession, in which case they would receive very little and undergo starvation for the night. Some homeless people may find other ways of overcoming the problem of homelessness; one of which is going to prison. This way they will receive accommodation and enough food for them to eat, which prevents them from starvation. What is homelessness? What are the reasons for homelessness?
