When he was only 14 years old,William Kamkwamba阅读理解答案
When he was only 14 years old,William Kamkwamba started to dream up a windmill that would produce electricity for his village in Malawi in Africa.What was the trouble?As Malawi was experiencing the worst famine（饥荒） in 50 years,William had to drop out of school because his family could not afford $80 every year.This meant he not only had no money to buy the parts,but also had no formal education to teach him how to put them together.However,he wouldn’t give up.
Strong-willed,he headed to the local library and read its limited (有限的) selection of textbooks,then gathered some waste parts — a bicycle engine,bamboo poles（杆）,a tractor fan,rubber belts,a bike chain ring — and brought his dream to life,building a working windmill.It took him five years to perfect the design.And he went on to found the Moving Windmills Project in 2008 to foster(促进) economic development and education projects in the countryside in Malawi.
In 2009,William shared his moving story in a book.Now,the story of creativity is being adapted (改编) for young hearts and minds in the beautifully pictured book.William’s story shines with all the more cheerfulness in the hands of 27-year-old artist Elizabeth Zunon.Her rich and romantic paintings excite the young readers with wonderful abilities.
