In word processing, an efficient way to move the 3rd paragraph to place it after the 5th paragraph is …….

copy and paste
copy, cut and paste
cut, copy and paste
cut and paste E. None of these

The correct answer is: C. cut, copy and paste

To move a paragraph in word processing, you can use the “cut” and “paste” commands. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Select the paragraph you want to move.
  2. Click on the “Cut” button on the toolbar.
  3. Place your cursor where you want to move the paragraph.
  4. Click on the “Paste” button on the toolbar.

The paragraph will be moved to the new location.

The other options are incorrect because they do not involve using the “cut” and “paste” commands.

  • Option A: “Copy and paste” would create a duplicate of the paragraph, not move it.
  • Option B: “Copy, cut and paste” would first create a duplicate of the paragraph, then cut it, and finally paste it in the new location. This is more steps than necessary.
  • Option D: “Cut and paste” would cut the paragraph from its original location and paste it in the new location. However, this would leave a blank space at the original location.
  • Option E: “None of these” is incorrect because one of the options is correct.
