Explanation:

The main idea of the excerpt is Katherine Goble's persistent and gentle questioning. Kelley's summary includes the simile about water (a minor detail) which is not the core of the main idea. The core is her persistent asking for a satisfactory answer despite initial demurral.

Answer:

She includes a minor detail.
