It looks like you typed the string "grep Download dwad dawdwa Downloads 
Downloads" and then typed control-C. This caused the shell to not 
execute grep at all. You need to type a CARRIAGE RETURN (labeled "Enter" 
on most keyboards) to actually run grep.

Here's what happens when I run the command (properly entered) on my 
platform. grep matches its documentation here: since -r is not 
specified, the search is not recursive.

$ grep Download dwad dawdwa Downloads Downloads
grep: dwad: No such file or directory
grep: dawdwa: No such file or directory
grep: Downloads: Is a directory
grep: Downloads: Is a directory
