Question

all of the following are ways to prepare for and do well when writing a tdw except...
read the passage closely and annotate by underlining key words, phrases, or literary devices
understand the prompt and task by identifying key verbs in the question
save time to read your response and make minor changes to ensure clarity and polish
draft a quick outline that includes a few key pieces of textual evidence
include a clear introduction with a claim, developed body paragraphs with evidence, and a conclusion with summary
skim the passage for key details rather than reading it closely

Explanation:

A Text-Dependent Writing (TDW) task requires close engagement with the source text to support claims with specific evidence. Skimming the passage instead of reading closely would lead to missing critical details needed for a strong, evidence-based response, while all other options are standard, effective strategies for TDW preparation and execution.

Answer:

Skim the passage for key details rather than reading it closely
