Question

Read the text trailer for Wonder.

August was a bright, special kid, but he knew he was different. Baseball, video games, and ice cream were three of his favorite things. He was home schooled his whole life until fifth grade. Upon entering Beecher Prep for the first time, he was terrified. Would he make friends? Would he be able to keep up? What would the other students think of him? This is his story.

Which sentence in this trailer is unnecessary?

Answer 1

The sentence that is unnecessary in the trailer is: "Baseball, video games, and ice cream were three of his favorite things."

While it gives some insight into August's interests, it does not contribute significantly to the main themes of his experience at school or his feelings about being different, which are the focus of the trailer.
