Wordy writing can make it hard for readers to understand a writer’s point.
Read this wordy student argument: It cannot be denied that Thor is the best and most superior superhero on account of being strong, being fast, and being able to control thunder and lightning.
Help the student make the argument more concise by removing unnecessary and distracting words. Rewrite the sentence above, cutting at least 7 words without changing the meaning.
