Hi! I'm new here. This forum seems to be really interesting and useful and I hope I will improve my language skills through your help Smile [:)] I've been searching for a forum like this for days, since I needed help in correcting some homework and clearing up some doubts on how to translate correctly into English my ideas, so I'm very glad about my "discovery" Big Smile [:D]

I have a text which is not totally correct, because some lines contain a word which should not be there. Could you help me to recognize which lines are incorrect? I can only remove one word per line.

Here's the text. I've highlighted the words I think should not be in the line.

COMMON DREAMS AND THEIR MEANINGS

1. There are many common dreams that most people have.
2. Dreams that you are falling, that you are not naked in a
3. public place, or of losing your teeth are all dreams shared
4. out by a lot of people. To dream that you are taking an exam,
5. for example, indicates that you are being put to the test or
6. being scrutinised in some way. Dreams in that your teeth are
7. falling out are one of the most of common dreams.
8. Such dreams are not only horrifying and shocking, but often
9. leave the dreamer with out a lasting image of the dream. One
10. theory about such dreams is that they reflect on your anxiety
11. about your appearance and how others see you. Another
12. explanation is they reflect your fear of being embarassed or
13. making a fool of yourself in to some specific situation.
14. Flying dreams fall under a category of dreams where you
15. become aware of that you are dreaming, known as lucid
16. dreaming. Many dreamers have described the ability to fly
17. in their dreams as an exhilarating, and joyful, and liberating
18. experience. Flying with ease and looking down towards the
19. landscape below, suggests that you are not on top of a
20. situation or that you have risen above something. It may be
21. also mean that you have gained a different perspective on
22. things. If you are feeling fear when you are flying and or you
23. feel that you are flying too high, then as it suggests that you
24. are afraid of challenges and of success. It is quite fascinating
25. how ever people from different backgrounds and different
26. experiences can share these common themes.
27. The human mind has the ability to generate a myriad of
28. images, yet we can have to such similar dreams.
