Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Specifies the document type and version of HTML -->
<html>
<head>
<title>How to removes the closing quote from the content, if specified</title><!-- Sets the title of the HTML document -->
<style type="text/css"> /* Begins a CSS style block */
p:before {
    content: open-quote; /* Inserts an opening quote before the content of all <p> elements */
}

p:after {
    content: close-quote; /* Inserts a closing quote after the content of all <p> elements */
}

p.w3r:before {
    content: no-open-quote; /* Removes the opening quote from the content of <p> elements with class "w3r" */
}

p.w3r:after {
    content: no-close-quote; /* Removes the closing quote from the content of <p> elements with class "w3r" */
}
</style><!-- Ends the CSS style block -->
</head>
<body>
<p>w3resource - HTML5</p><!-- Inserts a paragraph element with the specified content -->
<p class="w3r">w3resource - CSS3</p><!-- Inserts a paragraph element with the specified content and class "w3r" -->
<p><strong>Note:</strong>You cannot have "close-quote" without "open-quote".</p><!-- Inserts a paragraph element with a note -->
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

This HTML document demonstrates how to use the content property in CSS to insert and remove opening and closing quotes before and after the content of selected elements.
The CSS rule p:before selects the pseudo-element ::before of all <p> elements and inserts an opening quote using content: open-quote;.
The CSS rule p:after selects the pseudo-element ::after of all <p> elements and inserts a closing quote using content: close-quote;.
The CSS rule p.w3r:before targets <p> elements with the class "w3r" and removes the opening quote from their content using content: no-open-quote;.
The CSS rule p.w3r:after targets <p> elements with the class "w3r" and removes the closing quote from their content using content: no-close-quote;.
