Questions and Answers
  • 2. 

    Keywords are use to help narrow the results and show you the web pages you're looking for. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Keywords are indeed used to help narrow down search results and display relevant web pages. When conducting a search on a search engine, users can enter specific words or phrases related to their query, which are known as keywords. These keywords are then used by the search engine to match and retrieve web pages that contain the relevant information. By using keywords, users can refine their search and increase the chances of finding the desired web pages. Therefore, the statement "Keywords are used to help narrow the results and show you the web pages you're looking for" is true.

    Which of the following is NOT a search engine? 

    • Google

    • Bing

    • Cnn.com

    • Yahoo

    Correct Answer
    A. Cnn.com
    Explanation
    Cnn.com is not a search engine because it is a news website that provides news articles and videos rather than indexing and organizing web content like search engines do. Google, Bing, and Yahoo are all search engines that allow users to search for information on the internet.

    Which part of this picture shows the URL? 

    • A

    • B

    • C

    Correct Answer
    A. A
    Explanation
    In the given picture, option A is the correct answer. The URL, which stands for Uniform Resource Locator, is the address that is used to access a webpage. In the picture, option A shows a text box with the address "www.example.com" written in it, indicating that it is the URL. Option B and C do not show any text box or address, so they cannot be the URL. Therefore, option A is the correct choice for the part of the picture that shows the URL.

  • 6. 

    A website which allows you to add your own answer is reliable or trustworthy 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given answer is "False" because the fact that a website allows users to add their own answers does not necessarily make it reliable or trustworthy. The reliability and trustworthiness of a website depend on various factors such as the credibility of the information provided, the reputation of the website, the presence of reliable sources, and the accuracy of the content. Allowing users to add their own answers may increase the potential for biased or incorrect information to be included on the website, making it less reliable.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    A website that is made by an author with obvious qualifications or a reliable organization is trustworthy. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A website created by an author with obvious qualifications or a reliable organization is considered trustworthy because it implies that the information provided on the website is likely to be accurate and reliable. The author's qualifications indicate expertise in the subject matter, while a reliable organization suggests that the website has been vetted and meets certain standards. Trustworthiness is an important factor when evaluating the credibility and reliability of online information.

    A word processing program is one which allows you to type and edit text. Which word processing program did we learn about in the Research Quest Choice Board? 

    • TextEdit

    • TyperShark

    • Microsoft Word

    • Keynote

    Correct Answer
    A. Microsoft Word
    Explanation
    In the Research Quest Choice Board, we learned about Microsoft Word as a word processing program. Microsoft Word is a popular and widely used software that allows users to type and edit text. It offers various features such as formatting options, spell check, and the ability to insert images and tables. Microsoft Word is commonly used for creating documents, letters, resumes, and other written materials.

    The Menu bar is along the top in Word  and it has many options. Which one would you most likely click to find the Spelling and Grammar Check? 

    • Font

    • Insert

    • File

    • Tools

    Correct Answer
    A. Tools
    Explanation
    In Word, the Menu bar is located along the top and provides various options. To find the Spelling and Grammar Check, you would most likely click on the "Tools" option. This is because the Tools menu typically contains features and functions related to editing, proofreading, and language settings, which would include the Spelling and Grammar Check tool.

    Jordan is typing her paper and wants to make it double spaced. Which of the options below is the BEST? 

    • Change the font size

    • At the end of her sentence push return twice every time

    • Use the formatting palette and select double space

    Correct Answer
    A. Use the formatting palette and select double space
    Explanation
    To make the paper double spaced, Jordan should use the formatting palette and select double space. This option is the best because it is specifically designed for adjusting the spacing between lines in a document. Changing the font size would only affect the size of the text, not the spacing. Pushing return twice after each sentence would create extra space between sentences, but it would not adjust the spacing between lines throughout the entire document.

    Marquez is studying carmelization and its' effect. What would be the best key words for him to search for? 

    • Food science

    • Mullets

    • Effects Carmelization

    • Science Fair Projects

    Correct Answer
    A. Effects Carmelization
    Explanation
    The best keywords for Marquez to search for would be "effects caramelization" as it directly relates to his study topic. The other keywords such as "food science" and "science fair projects" may provide some relevant information, but they are broader and may not specifically focus on the effects of caramelization. "Mullets" is unrelated and not relevant to the topic.
