Question 1

Which of the following do you change if you want to change the speed of a transition?
A) After setting
B) Before setting
C) Switch
D) Duration

Accepted Answer

The speed of a transition is determined by its duration. A longer duration means a slower transition, while a shorter duration means a faster transition. Therefore, to change the speed of a transition, you need to adjust its duration.

Question 2

Claudia added an equilateral triangle shape that is one inch high and one inch wide to a slide in her presentation. She clicked in the Shape Height box, typed 3, and then pressed ENTER. What happened to the shape?
A) The height of the triangle changed to three inches, but the width remained one inch.
B) The height and width of the triangle both changed to three inches to maintain the proportions.
C) The size of the triangle did not change because the aspect ratio is locked.
D) The triangle changed to an isosceles triangle that is three inches high.

Accepted Answer

Typing 3 in the Shape Height box changed only the height of the equilateral triangle to three inches, but did not change the width, which remained one inch. As a result, the shape is no longer equilateral since it is no longer equally wide and tall.

A) Delete Slide 3.
B) Flip Slide 3.

Question 4

Which of the following shows the underlying grid on a slide?
A) Ruler
B) Guides

A) Effect option
B) Delay
C) Duration
D) Start setting

Accepted Answer

The duration of each slide determines how long the transition lasts. By decreasing the duration, David can make the transition faster. Option A determines the type of transition, Option B determines how long a delay there is before the transition starts, and Option D determines when the transition starts (such as when clicked or automatically after a certain time).

Question 8

After you right-click a slide in the thumbnails pane in Normal view or in Slide Sorter view to open a shortcut menu, which of the following commands do you click to create a copy of the slide?
A) Exact Copy
B) Copy Slide
C) Duplicate Slide
D) Mimic Slide

Accepted Answer

To create a copy of a slide, you should click on the "Duplicate Slide" command in the shortcut menu that appears after right-clicking a slide in the thumbnails pane in Normal view or Slide Sorter view. The "Exact Copy" and "Mimic Slide" commands do not exist in the shortcut menu, and "Copy Slide" would only copy the contents of the slide, not the entire slide itself. Therefore, the best choice is C - Duplicate Slide.

Question 9

To select more than one object at a time on a slide, which key do you press while you click the objects?
A) ALT
B) CTRL
C) SHIFT
D) TAB

Accepted Answer

Question 10

If you want to add the date to every slide in the presentation and you want the date to update to show the current date every time the presentation is opened, which of the following actions would you take?
A) Open the Header and Footer dialog box, click the Slide tab, click the Date and time checkbox, and then click the Fixed option button.
B) Open the Header and Footer dialog box, click the Slide tab, click the Date and time checkbox, and then click the Update automatically option button.
C) Type the date in a placeholder on every slide.
D) Type the date on the title slide so that it appears on all of the slides.

Accepted Answer

To add the date to every slide in the presentation and have it update to show the current date every time the presentation is opened, you should open the Header and Footer dialog box, click the Slide tab, select the Date and time checkbox, and then click the Update automatically option button. This will add a date placeholder to every slide in your presentation, and the date will automatically update whenever the presentation is opened. Option A is incorrect because you should choose the "Update automatically" option to ensure that the date is always current. Option C is incorrect because manually typing the date on every slide would not update the date when the presentation is opened at a later time. Option D is incorrect because typing the date on the title slide would not automatically add it to every slide in the presentation.

A) Rotate Right 90°

Question 15

Which slide usually does not require the slide number, date, and footer text on it?
A) Summary slide
B) Title slide
C) Title of contents slide
D) Definitions slide

Accepted Answer

The Title slide typically does not require slide number, date, or footer text as it is usually the first slide and serves as an introduction to the presentation. This is different from a summary slide, which would typically contain the slide number and possibly the date, as it may be the last slide of a presentation and serve as a review or conclusion of the main points.
