Sitting quietly and waiting for directions shows that you are ready to listen and follow instructions from the teacher.

    Explanation
    Waiting patiently is the correct answer because when a computer is taking time to load, it could be due to various reasons such as slow processing speed, insufficient memory, or network issues. Clicking on the mouse repeatedly or asking the teacher may not resolve the issue and could potentially worsen it. Talking to your neighbor may distract you and not contribute to solving the problem. Therefore, the best approach is to wait patiently for the computer to finish loading.

    Correct Answer
    B. Keep them plugged in and the volume at an appropriate level.
    Explanation
    When using headphones, it is important to keep them plugged in and adjust the volume to an appropriate level. This ensures that you can hear the audio clearly without causing any damage to your ears. Wearing them sideways for fun or turning the volume up too loud can lead to discomfort or potential hearing loss. Unplugging them because they hurt your ears may be an indication of a problem with the headphones or an issue with the fit, which should be addressed rather than simply unplugging them.

    When sitting at the computer you should:

    • A.

      Sit however you want

    • B.

      Slouch in your chair

    • C.

      Sit with your back straight and your feet in front of you

    • D.

      Kneel on your chair

    Correct Answer
    C. Sit with your back straight and your feet in front of you
    Explanation
    Sitting with your back straight and your feet in front of you is the correct answer because it promotes good posture and helps to maintain the natural curvature of the spine. This position also helps to distribute weight evenly and reduces strain on the back, neck, and shoulders. Slouching or sitting in any other position can lead to poor posture, muscle imbalances, and increased risk of developing musculoskeletal issues such as back pain or neck pain. Kneeling on a chair is also not recommended as it can put excessive pressure on the knees and restrict blood flow.

Walking slowly allows you to maintain control and avoid any potential hazards. Being aware of your surroundings ensures that you can anticipate any obstacles or dangers in your path and take appropriate actions to avoid them. Additionally, talking to a friend behind you while walking can distract you from your surroundings and increase the risk of accidents.
