The question is incomplete, here is the complete question.

Read the excerpt from The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind by William Kamkwamba.

One Saturday, Gilbert met me in the library and we flipped through books we thought might be fun. I couldn't study all the time. One book that caught my attention was the Malawi Junior Integrated Science book, used by Form Four students. Hmm, I thought, and flipped it open. There were lots of pictures and diagrams, which I found easy to understand. I saw pictures of cancer and scabies and children stricken with kwashiorkor, like so many who'd wandered the country. One picture had a man in a shiny silver suit walking on the moon.

What is the primary idea that the details in the excerpt tell a reader about Kamkwamba?

Answer:

He is intelligent despite his lack of education.

Explanation:

William Kamkwamba was a young boy from Malawi, a country where a great hunger and drought prevailed. As a young uneducated boy he had a dream to bring water and electricity to his poor town but he was greatly mocked by people around him.

The primary idea from the excerpt tells the reader about William high level of intelligence due to his ability to understand the pictures and diagrams in the science textbook despite the fact that he is not properly educated.

Answer:

One day, I was taking a walk around my neighborhood when I ran into a small, scared puppy. After a few minutes, I managed to convince it to approach me and started petting it. It was really cute, and I felt like keeping it. But the puppy seemed somewhat familiar, and I realized that I saw posters about a lost dog with a picture of this puppy attached. I picked up the puppy, walked to the spot where one of these posters was, and phoned the number the owner left. The owner picked up and was overjoyed that I found his puppy. We met soon after, and I was really happy that the puppy returned to its home. I felt like a did a good thing, and despite not getting to keep the puppy, I learned that doing the right thing pays off the most.

Are the names of college courses capitalized
Trava [24]
I assumingly so must think they are capitalized considering they are proper nouns because of their significance in the college aspect.
