Answer 1

Answer:

The correct commands are:

• Click two times when the arrow cursor is at the selection bar.

• Drag the cursor from the start to the end point of the paragraph.

• Put the cursor in front of the first word in the paragraph, then click three times.

Explanation:

Press the Ctrl key while clicking on a word.

• Incorrect. This highligths the sentence but not the whole paragraph.

Click two times when the arrow cursor is at the selection bar.

• Correct.

The selection bar is on the left side of the window and is invisible. When you put the cursor on this area, to the left of a line of a paragraph, one click selects the line and two clicks select the whole paragraph.

Drag the cursor from the start to the end point of the paragraph.

• Correct: this is the most classical. By dragging the cursor you select everything that is between the starting point and the end point.

Place the cursor on the paragraph, then use the Ctrl+A keys.

• Incorrect: if you do not click nothing happens.

Put the cursor in front of the first word in the paragraph, then click three times.

• Correct: It is very easy. Just click before the first word, to put the cursor in front of it, and then click three times.
