2. How many margins are on a page?

The correct answer is four (top, bottom, right, left) because margins are the blank spaces around the content on a page. These margins can be adjusted and customized in page layout settings to control the spacing between the content and the edges of the page. The four options given in the question represent the different directions in which margins can be set, indicating that there are margins on all four sides of a page.

Submit
3. What's a good reason to use a header or footer in your document

Explanation

A good reason to use a header or footer in a document is to include the document title and page numbers. This helps in organizing the document and making it easier for readers to navigate through the pages. Including page numbers allows readers to easily reference specific sections or information, while the document title in the header or footer provides a clear identification of the document's content.

Submit
4. The best way to create a heading in a document is to: 

Explanation

Applying a heading style is the best way to create a heading in a document because it not only changes the font size, but also applies consistent formatting to all headings in the document. This ensures that headings have a uniform appearance and makes it easier to navigate and organize the content. Additionally, using a heading style allows for easy updates and modifications to headings throughout the document, as changes made to the style will automatically be applied to all headings.

Submit
5. Once you've deleted text in a word document, you can't get it back. 

Explanation

This statement is false because in a word document, you can retrieve deleted text by using the "Undo" command or by accessing the "Recycle Bin" or "Trash" folder on your computer where the deleted document is stored temporarily. Additionally, there are also third-party software programs available that can help recover deleted text from a word document.

Submit
6. Which keyboard shortcut bolds selected text?

Explanation

Ctrl+B is the correct answer because it is a commonly used keyboard shortcut in many text editing programs to apply the bold formatting to the selected text.

Submit
7. How many different documents can you have open at one time?

Explanation

The correct answer is "As many as your computer memory will hold." This means that the number of different documents that can be open at one time is limited by the amount of memory available on the computer. The more memory your computer has, the more documents you can have open simultaneously.

Submit
8. As you type a paragraph, press ENTER to move from one line to the next. 

Explanation

The given answer is "True". This means that the statement or question being referred to is true. Without any context or specific question, it is impossible to provide a more detailed explanation.

Submit
9. Which elements of a Word document can be displayed in color?

Explanation

All elements of a Word document can be displayed in color. This includes graphics, text, and any other elements present in the document. The color display is not dependent on having a color printer, as it is the capability of the software to display the elements in color.

Submit
10. Suddenly Word does not display your favorite toolbar. What has happened?

Explanation

The correct answer is that the toolbar has been unchecked under the View/Toolbars menu. This means that the toolbar is still present in Word, but it is not being displayed because it has been manually unchecked. To restore the toolbar, the user would need to go to the View menu, select Toolbars, and then check the box next to the desired toolbar to display it again.

Submit
11. You place the insertion point in the middle of a paragraph and start typing. But the new text deletes existing text. What's the problem and how do you fix it? 

Explanation

The problem is that Word is in Overtype mode, which causes new text to delete existing text instead of inserting it. To fix this, you need to press the INSERT key to turn off Overtype mode.

Submit
12. In page preview mode

Explanation

In page preview mode, you can see all pages of your document. This means that you can view and navigate through all the pages in your document, giving you an overview of its content and layout. This mode allows you to check for any errors or inconsistencies in the document as a whole, rather than just focusing on the page you are currently working on. It is a useful feature for reviewing and editing your document before finalizing it.

Submit
13. Why the document you created at home displays with a different font at school?

Explanation

The document created at home displays with a different font at school because the font used at home is not installed on the school computer. Different computers may have different fonts installed, and if a particular font is not available on a computer, the document will be displayed with a default font, resulting in a different appearance.

Submit
14. How do you open the Header and Footer toolbar? 

Explanation

To open the Header and Footer toolbar, you need to go to the View menu and click on the Header and Footer option. This will display the toolbar, allowing you to edit and customize the header and footer sections of your document.

Submit
15. A document in portrait prints:

Explanation

When a document is printed in portrait orientation, there are typically fewer characters per line compared to the same document printed in landscape orientation. This is because portrait orientation has a narrower width, which limits the number of characters that can fit on each line. In landscape orientation, the wider width allows for more characters to fit on each line, resulting in more characters per line compared to portrait orientation.

Submit
16. This is a Bar that contains the File, Edit, History, Bookmark, Tools, and Help.

Explanation

The question states that there is a bar that contains the options File, Edit, History, Bookmark, Tools, and Help. However, no further information or context is provided. Without any additional details, it is not possible to determine the purpose or function of this bar. Therefore, the answer "N/A" indicates that there is no applicable explanation available.

Submit
17. How can you highlight text without using the mouse? 

Explanation

To highlight text without using the mouse, you can use the arrow keys while holding down the Shift key. This allows you to move the cursor and select text in a document or text editor without the need for a mouse. By holding down the Shift key and pressing the arrow keys, you can extend the selection in the desired direction.

Submit
18. Which keyboard shortcut centers selected text?

Explanation

Ctrl+E is the correct answer because it is a keyboard shortcut that centers selected text. This shortcut is commonly used in word processing software to quickly align text or objects to the center of the page or container. By selecting the desired text and pressing Ctrl+E, the text will be centered horizontally within its container.

Submit
19. You create a numbered list as you type by typing 1, adding your text, and pressing ENTER. 

Explanation

Creating a numbered list by typing 1, adding text, and pressing ENTER is not the correct method. In most word processing software, such as Microsoft Word, the numbering feature automatically adds the numbers to the list as you type and press ENTER.

Submit
