Verb Detectives

In this worksheet, students choose the correct phrasal verb from a set of options based on context. They must read each sentence carefully, determine which choice creates a complete and logical meaning, and underline the correct answer. This activity builds students’ ability to differentiate between similar phrasal verbs and understand subtle meaning changes caused by different particles. Learners improve comprehension, vocabulary knowledge, and sentence interpretation skills.
