    Correct Answer
    A. Use the center button.
    Explanation
    To center something, you should use the center button. This button is specifically designed to align text or objects in the center of a document or page.

    Correct Answer
    A. The "shift" key

    Explanation
    "Save as" is used for the first time you create a document. This option allows you to save the document with a new name or in a different file format, while keeping the original document intact. It is commonly used when you want to create a duplicate of the document or save it in a different location, without overwriting the original version.

    To properly shut down the computer, you should click on the Start button, which is typically located in the bottom left corner of the screen, and then select the Shut Down option from the menu that appears.
