Case-Based Critical Thinking Questions
Case 3-1
In PowerPoint 2016, Jim has been inserting text using the text box placeholders included in the slide layout. He wants to be able to add text to other locations on the slide.
-Jim wants to insert text that appears without a fill color and where the text is left-aligned. Jim should insert a _____.
A)shape with text added
B)text box
C)slide accent
D)picture

Accepted Answer

Jim should insert a text box, as this allows him to add text in any location on the slide and customize the fill color and text alignment. A shape with text added may not allow for the same level of customization, and slide accent and picture options do not directly relate to inserting text.

The _____ Merge Shape command combines selected shapes without removing any portions.
A)Union
B)Combine
C)Fragment
D)Intersect

Accepted Answer

The Union command combines the selected shapes while keeping all portions.

Question 6

Case-Based Critical Thinking Questions
Case 3-1
In PowerPoint 2016, Jim has been inserting text using the text box placeholders included in the slide layout. He wants to be able to add text to other locations on the slide.
-Jim wants to insert text that appears in a box that is already filled with Accent color 1 and where the text is center-aligned. Jim should insert a _____.
A)shape with text added
B)text box
C)slide accent
D)picture

Accepted Answer

A shape can be filled with Accent color 1 and center-aligned text can be added inside it. This will allow Jim to add text to other locations on the slide besides the text box placeholders included in the slide layout. A text box would create a new, separate box on the slide, while a slide accent is a pre-designed element with text already included, which may not fit Jim's specific needs. A picture would not allow him to add text directly into the image.
