Answer
Correct Answer: A-2, B-3, C-1, D-4
Explanation
Introduction / Context:User-interface and OS terminology is ubiquitous across software. This question ensures you can map everyday computing terms to their precise definitions in word processing, networking, and operating systems.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- (A) Word wrap
- (B) Client
- (C) Multitasking
- (D) Landscape
- Definitions: (1) interleaved execution of programs, (2) auto move a word to next line, (3) application receiving service/data, (4) page orientation
Concept / Approach:
Word wrap is a document editor feature that prevents words from being split or clipped at the line end. A client is the consumer in client-server architecture (e.g., a browser). Multitasking is the OS capability to interleave or schedule multiple tasks on a CPU. Landscape refers to horizontal page orientation (wider than tall) used for worksheets, slides, and wide tables.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Map word wrap → (2).Map client → (3).Map multitasking → (1).Map landscape → (4).Verification / Alternative check:
Most editors expose “Word wrap” in view/preferences; OS textbooks define multitasking; networking texts define client vs server; page setup dialogs show Landscape/Portrait options.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Mixing client with server roles; confusing page orientation with print scaling; treating word wrap as hyphenation.
Common Pitfalls:
Assuming multitasking implies parallelism (true only with multi-core; otherwise, it is time-sharing); thinking word wrap inserts hard line breaks (it does not).
Final Answer:
