a. Jamie Oliver's best recipes
b. Jamie Oliver makes a difference
c. How to become a famous chef

Jamie Oliver became famous for his simple, healthy but delicious creations. His recipes were fresh, and the style of his cooking programme was relaxed, friendly and cool. He turned food preparation and cooking into a fun activity, instead of a boring chore. While he was growing up, Jamie Oliver's parents ran a pub in Essex, England and he used to practise cooking in the kitchen there. He enjoyed cooking so much that after he finished school, he went to Westminster Catering College, where he studied to become a chef. In 1999, he started working in The River Café, in Fulham, London, where he was noticed by the BBC. He went on to make a TV show called The Naked Chef. It was such a success that he made a cookbook of the same name which became a best-seller. In the same year, he received an invitation to prepare lunch for the Prime Minister at 10 Downing Street. In 2005, Oliver introduced a campaign to improve school dinners in the UK. He wanted to get rid of the junk food that they served to kids and make kids eat fresh, healthy food. It wasn't an easy task, but eventually the campaign was a success and students' eating habits showed great improvement. Oliver's next campaign was to get the people of the USA to start eating healthily, and he started off with West Virginia. He wants to inform communities about how important it is to eat home-made healthy food. Hopefully, his message will spread across the world.
