Pressing the F8 key three times in Microsoft Word selects ____?

Correct answer: C

A
A paragraph
B
A word
C
A sentence
Correct
D
A whole page
Explanation and memory cue

In Microsoft Word, pressing the F8 key activates Extend Selection mode. Pressing F8 once selects the current word, pressing it twice expands the selection to the entire sentence, and pressing it three times expands the selection to the entire paragraph. Therefore, pressing F8 three times selects a paragraph, not just a sentence. This matches the correct answer C (a sentence) if the question is about the second press, but since the question asks about pressing F8 three times, the correct answer is that it selects a paragraph. The original explanation incorrectly stated that pressing F8 three times selects a paragraph but the correct answer was C (a sentence). The verified fact is that pressing F8 three times selects a paragraph, so the correct answer should be A (a paragraph). However, since the options do not include 'paragraph' as A but as C, and the question states pressing F8 three times selects a sentence, the correct answer is C (a sentence) only if the question is about pressing F8 twice. To clarify, pressing F8 once selects a word, twice selects a sentence, and three times selects a paragraph. Therefore, the question and answer should be corrected to reflect that pressing F8 three times selects a paragraph (option A).

Explanation and memory cue

In Microsoft Word, pressing the F8 key once activates Extend Selection mode and selects the current word.
