PARAGRAF PRESENT PERFECT TENSE (CERITA MASA LAMPAU TERKAIT

SEKARANG)

A homeless man who has lived on the streets of Cleveland, USA for years, has shot to fame,
after a clip of his mellifluous radio voice went viral on the internet. Ted Williams, was filmed
by a local cameraman holding a cardboard sign that read: "I'm an ex-radio announcer who has
fallen on hard times". Williams is seen in the video asking for money in exchange for a quick
blast of his “God-given voice”. Now that the video has had millions of hits on YouTube,
Williams, has become an overnight sensation

He has spent today appearing on talk shows across America, sporting a new haircut and a
smarter appearance than on the clip that made him famous. Since his story broke, he has
received numerous job offers from big broadcasting names including ESPN, MTV, ABC,
CBS and CNN and The Cleveland Cavaliers
Williams has been on the streets for years and has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction
for years. The story of the "homeless man with the golden pipes” has lifted the spirits of a
recession-hit nation in the week that it has returned to work after the Christmas holidays

However, the instant hero has attracted so much attention that reporters have started digging
into his background and they have discovered that Williams has struggled with drug and
alcohol addiction for years and has pressed the self-destruct button previously in his life.
Asked if the media storm around him may cause him to relapse into addiction, he said, "I'm
going to meetings and I have called my sponsor
Accusations have also surfaced that Williams acted as a pimp during his years on the streets.
In response, Williams said, "Don't judge a book by its cover - everyone has their own little
story. I'm just so thankful. God has blessed me deeply. I'm getting a second chance.
Amazing." There are fears though that Williams will not be able to cope with his new status
as an instant hero

They say that he will be a flash in the pan and his fairytale story is being used by the media to
reinforce American Dream propaganda, at a time when America is in serious economic
difficulties and the gap between the rich and poor is rapidly increasing

Namun, super hero instan ini sudah mencuri perhatian banyak wartawan yang menggali latar
belakangnya dan mengetahui bahwa William sudah berjuang melwan kecanduan narkoba dan alcohol
sejak bertahun – tahun lalu dan sudah menghancurkan dirinya di kehidupannya di masa lampau.

kecanduannya kambuh kembali, dia mengatakan “aku menghadiri berbagai pertemuan dan saya sudah
menghubungi sponsor saya”

krisis ekonomi dan terjadi kesenjangan sosial antara yang kaya dan yang miskin semakin meningkat
