Explanation

To save an existing document with a different name, you need to use the "Save as..." command.

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

Explanation

The best way to create a heading in a document is to apply a heading style. This is because heading styles not only change the font size but also apply consistent formatting throughout the document. By using heading styles, headings can be easily distinguished from the body text, and any changes made to the style will automatically be applied to all headings in the document. This ensures a professional and cohesive look for the document.

Submit
5. In page preview mode:

Explanation

In page preview mode, you are able to see all the pages of your document. This allows you to have a comprehensive view of the entire document and make any necessary edits or adjustments to the content, formatting, or layout of each page. It is a useful feature for reviewing and finalizing your document before printing or sharing it with others.

6. Once you've deleted the text, you can't get it back.

Explanation

Once you've deleted the text, you can't get it back. This statement is false because in many cases, deleted text can be recovered using data recovery software or by restoring from a backup. Additionally, some applications have features that allow users to undo or retrieve deleted text. Therefore, it is not always true that once text is deleted, it cannot be recovered.

Submit
7. 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 combination allows you to move the cursor and select text in the desired direction. By holding down the Shift key, you can extend the selection from the current cursor position to the new position indicated by the arrow keys. This method provides a keyboard alternative to mouse-based text highlighting.

Submit

Explanation

To show the font dialog box, you need to press the keys Ctrl + D.

Submit
9. 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 correct answer is that Word is in Overtype mode and pressing INSERT will turn it off. In Overtype mode, any new text typed will replace the existing text instead of inserting it. By pressing the INSERT key, the mode can be toggled off, allowing new text to be inserted without deleting the existing text.

Submit
10. A document in portrait prints:

Explanation

In portrait orientation, the document prints with less characters per line compared to the same document in landscape orientation. This is because the width of the page is narrower in portrait mode, causing the text to wrap and fit fewer characters on each line.
