❗️INSTRUCTIONS: remove unnecessary word or set of words.

1️⃣ I wrote down ideas for the party.

✅ Answer: 🔰 The unnecessary word(-s) here is (are) < ... down ... > .
TIP: Both wrote and wrote down refer to the "act of having composed words on paper or a computer", so down is unnecessary.

☑️ I wrote down ideas for the party.

2️⃣ Students turned in their projects upon final completion.

✅ Answer: 🔰 The unnecessary word(-s) here is (are) < ... final ... > .
TIP: Final means "coming at the end", and completion means "the act of finishing something".

☑️ Students turned in their projects upon final completion.

3️⃣ They hoped their child's new love for reading wasn't just a passing phase.

✅ Answer: 🔰 The unnecessary word here is < ... passing ... > .
TIP: Passing means "lasting a short time", and a phase is "a state in a regularly recurring cycle of changes", so passing is unnecessary.

☑️ They hoped their child's new love for reading wasn't just a passing phase.

4️⃣ The toddler meandered back and forth as she explored her new home.

✅ Answer: 🔰 The unnecessary word here is < ... back and forth ... > .
TIP: Meander means "to move from one thing to another without purpose", so back and forth is unnecessary.

☑️ The toddler meandered back and forth as she explored her new home.

5️⃣ Because of his diet, he grabbed nothing at all from the dessert buffet.

✅ Answer: 🔰 The unnecessary word(-s) here is(are) < ... at all ... > .

☑️ Because of his diet, he grabbed nothing at all from the dessert buffet.
