In MS Word, which shortcut is used to copy the selected text?
Answer: D
Correct answer: Ctrl + C
Ctrl + C copies the selection to the clipboard, leaving the original in place. The clipboard trio belongs together: Ctrl + X cuts, removing the selection and placing it on the clipboard; Ctrl + C copies; and Ctrl + V pastes. The letters were chosen for their position on the keyboard rather than for any mnemonic value, which is why they must simply be learned. Office keeps a clipboard history of up to 24 items, opened from the small arrow at the corner of the Clipboard group, so an earlier copy can be retrieved. Paste Special, Ctrl + Alt + V, is the one worth knowing beyond the basics: it offers to paste unformatted text, which strips the formatting of the source and is the standard remedy for text pasted from a web page. Ctrl + Z undoes, and is a different operation altogether.
