Read the excerpt from The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind
by William Kamkwamba.
Which fact about Malawi helps the reader understand what
the excerpt is mostly about?
The wind would spin the blades of the windmill, rotate the
magnets in a dynamo, and create electricity. Attach a wire
to the dynamo and you could power anything, especially a
bulb. All I needed was a windmill, and then I could have
lights. No more kerosene lamps that burned our eyes and
sent us gasping for breath. With a windmill, I could stay
awake at night reading instead of going to bed at seven
with the rest of Malawi.
O Malawi lacked sufficient resources to generate energy
O Malawi was a small, rural country on the African
continent
O Malawi had citizens who liked to go to sleep early in the
evening
O Malawi provided kerosene lamps to its population for
reading.
