PARTS OF THE KEYBOARD
1. ALPHANUMERIC KEYS – a part of the keyboard that contains the characters of the
alphabet.
2. CURSOR MOVEMENT KEYS OR ARROW KEYS – a part of the keyboard that
brings you anywhere on the screen in any direction.
3. NUMERIC KEYS - a part of the keyboard that contains numerical values same as most
of the ordinary calculators. These are located in the numeric keypad at the right side of
the keyboard. To enter the numbers from the keypad, press the Num Lock key, which
acts as an on-off switch. When the Num Lock led is off, the keypad will function not as
number but as indicated therein. Another set of number keys is in the central part of the
keyboard, on the top row, and these numbers are entered on the screen by simple pressing
these keys alone.
4. FUNCTION KEYS – are keys from F1 to 12, which are used to perform special
functions. Pressing a function key may allow the user to accomplish something quickly
or it may be the only way to issue a command.
5. SPECIAL KEYS – are additional keys of the computer keyboard that perform special
functions.
 SHIFT KEY – is pressed to change the alphabetic characters to the uppercase

mode. The special characters on the upper part of the number keys or keys along
the top row of the keyboard appear on the screen when being pressed with the
shift key.
49
 ENTER OR RETURN KEY – is the carriage return key. It is pressed if you want
to go down to the next line. Or, it has a similar function that tells the computer
that you are done entering the command or have completed a line of text.
 CTRL OR CONTROL KEY – is similar to the shift key in that it is held down
while you press another. The Control Key in conjunction with another key causes
a different code to be sent to the computer. When pressed together with the
alphabetic key, enables the user to perform specific functions and commands.
For example, pressing CTRL R will right align a paragraph: CTRL S will save a
document: etc.
 ALT OR ALTERNATE KEY- is used in the same manner as the control key.
When it is pressed together with the alphabet key, it enables the user to enter
some of the basic keywords. For example, ALT P corresponds to print; ALT F
opens the file menu; etc.
 CAPS LOCK OR CAPITAL LOCK KEY – locks, when pressed once, the
characters A to Z in the uppercase position. While the Caps Lock is on, letters
may be shifted to lower case by pressing the shift key. The uppercase mode may
be released by pressing back the caps lock key.
 PRINT SCREEN KEY – is pressed once when you want to print a copy of want
you see on the screen. The printer must be connected; its power turned on, and
should be on line before you can print a screen.
 BACKSPACE KEY – is pressed to move the cursor one character to the left
while deleting the character. When the cursor is already at the far left edge of the
screen, pressing the backspace key causes the cursor to move to the far right of
the above line.
 SPACE BAR – is pressed to enter a blank space on the screen instead of a
character.
 ESC OR ESCAPE KEY – is pressed in case of process interruption; it is used to
go back to previous screen, application or to clear or reset a command.
 TAB KEY – is usually used to move the cursor to the next tab stop at the right of
the cursor’s present position. It is labeled with two arrows, and when pressed
along with shift key, this key causes to move one tab position to the left.
 SCROLL LOCK KEY – is a special-purpose key, it locks the scrolling of the
“electronic page”, when it is pressed together with CTRL, it enables the user to
return to the command level without saving any changes made.
 DEL OR DELETE KEY – is used to delete character tO the cursor position; or
it is used to delete characters to the right of the cursor while moving the cursor
one space to the right.
 INS OR INSERT KEY – allows you to insert characters to the left of the cursor
when the insert mode is on.
 PAGE UP AND PAGE DOWN – are pressed to display screen information one
screen up or one screen down.
 HOME AND END KEYS – when pressed, cause the cursor to move to the top
(home) or bottom (end) of the screen.

About Text Alignment and Spacing
55
The term text alignment refers to the positioning of the text between the left and right margin
of a page. Many factors is determined how text is positioned. Margins determine the distance
from the edge for all the text on the page, while paragraph indention determines how
paragraphs fit between margins. One can determine how much space occurs between lines,
before and after paragraphs.
Position and Aligning Text
Indention determines the distance of the paragraph from either the left or right margins.
Within margins you can increase or decrease the indentation of a paragraph or group or
paragraphs.
1. Page Margins
2. Paragraph Indents
Horizontal and vertical Alignment
Horizontal alignment determines the appearance and orientation of the edges of the
paragraph; left-aligned, right-aligned, centered or justified.
Vertical alignment determines the position of the paragraph relative to the top and bottom
margins. If you want to create a title page, you can position text precisely at the top, bottom
or center of the page, or you can vertically justify the paragraph so they are spaced evenly
down the page.
Examples of Paragraph Indention:
1. Text with a first line indent

2. text with a hanging indent
3. Text with a negative indent
Spacing Between Lines or Paragraphs
 Line Spacing is the distance from one line of text to the next. It is measured numerically.
For example, single line spacing means that every line available on a page contains text.
For double line spacing means that text only appears every other line (every two lines).
 Paragraph Spacing determines the amount of space above and below the paragraph.

THE MAKING OF A SILICON CHIP
It comes from the most common elements on earth. Just as steel and coal
powered our past, silicon made from sand has become the foundation of our
future. After undergoing an extraordinary transformation, this simple element,
mined from the earth, eventually becomes the silicon wafers from which
microchips are built.
Beginning deep in he earth, quartz, which is believed to make up 28 percent of

the earth’s crust, is mined in quarries and then shipped to one of the few
companies that specializes in processing this element into purified silicon. On of
these companies is Wacker Siltronic in Germany, where electric arc furnaces
transform the quartz to metallurgical-grade silicon. In a process designed to
further weed out impurities, the silicon is converted to a liquid, distilled, and then
redeposited in the form, of semiconductor grade r0ds, which are, at that point,
99.999999 percent pure. These rods are then mechanically broken into chunks
(above) and packed into quartz crucibles, where they are melted at 2,593 degrees
Fahrenheit.
A monocrystal seed is introduced to melted silicon, and as the seed rotates in the
melted silicon, a crystal grows (below). After a few days, the monocrystal is
slowly extracted, resulting in a 5-foot-long ingot of silicon which, depending on
diameter, is worth from $8,000 to 1$16,000 (right). These pure silicon ingots,
weighing up to 264 pounds each, are then sliced by diamond saw into wafers,
which are washed, polished, cleaned and inspected both visually (far left) and
mechanically. The wafers are then scanned with lasers to find surface defects and
particles less than 1/300th the width of a human hair before being shipped to
65
customers. Every week, Wacker Siltronic produces around 800 ingots, enough to
create more than 500, 00 wafers.
9. Close the file “Newsletter”.

10. Have it checked by your instructor.

Exercise No. 12
ENHANCING A DOCUMENT
1. Objectives:

1. Insert a ClipArt or WordArt in the document.
2. Insert or use special characters in the document.
3. Use Drawing Toolbar, and
4. Insert other symbols.
2. Theory:
Enhancing a document in some cases requires inserting ClipArt objects.
Inserting WordArt is also used to improved title of the document, to cite an
application from among other uses. Pictures or Graphics can be created from
another application into the Word document. To insert a picture into a
document, first, position your insertion point where you want to insert the
picture, click the ClipArt; select the desired picture; and click Insert.
The same process is done when using WordArt: position your insertion point
where you want to insert the WordArt style; click the Insert menu at the Menu
bar; select Picture and click WordArt; select the desired art; and click Insert.
The size of the inserted ClipArt or WordArt can be modified. To change the
size of a inserted picture or WordArt, click left mouse button on the picture or
WordArt. Sizing handles appear. Then drag one of the sizing handles to the
desired direction to produce the desired size of the object or Word Art. (Sizing
handles are small squares that appear around the object or Word Art. When the
mouse pointer is positioned on any one of these sizing handles and dragged, the
size of the object is altered or changed. These sizing handles are used to resize
pictures or objects such as diagonal resize, horizontal resize, and vertical
resize).

“A GLASS OF MILK”
One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school,
found he had only one thin dime left, and was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the
next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a
meal he asked for a drink of water.
She thought she looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and
then asked, “How much do I owe you?” “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has
taught us never to accept pay for a kindness.” “He said…” “then thank you from my heart.”
As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his faith in God and
man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.
Year’s later that young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally
sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard
Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a
70
strange light filled his eyes. Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her
room.
Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the
consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day in he gave special
attention to the case.
After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the Business Office to pass the
final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, and then wrote something on the edge and the bill
was sent to her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to
pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She
read these words…
“Paid in full with one glass of milk”
(Signed)
Dr. Howard Kelly
Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: “Thank You, God that Your Love has
spread abroad through human hearts and hands.”

FALLING IN LOVE
(It is a mystery why we fell in love.)
It is a mystery how it happens.
It is a mystery when it comes.
It is a mystery why some love grows and it is a mystery why some love fails.
You can analyze this mystery and look for season and causes, but you will never do anymore than
life out of the experience. Just as life itself, is more than the sum of the bones and muscles and
electrical impulses in the body, love is more than the sum of interest and attractions and
communities that two people share. And just as life itself is a gift that comes and goes in its own
time, so too, the coming of love must be taken as an unfathomable gift that cannot be questioned
in its ways.
Sometimes, hopefully at least once in your life – the gift of love will come to you in full flower,
and you will take hold of it and celebrate it in all inexpressible beauty. This is the dream we all
share. More often, it will come and will take hold of you, celebrate you for a brief moment, then
move on.
When this happens to young people, they too often try to grasp the love and hold it to them,
refusing to see that it is freely given and a gift that just as freely, moves away.
When they fall out of love, or person they love feels the spirits of love leaving, they try
desperately to reclaim the love that is lost rather than accepting the gift for it was, them moving
on.
They want answer where there are no answers. They want to know what is wrong in them, that
make the other person no longer love them, or they try to get their love to change, thinking that if
75
some small things were different, love would bloom again. They blame their circumstances and
say that if they go far way and start a new life together, their love will grow.
Remember this, and keep it to your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and its own
reason for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it, or reason it into
Staying. You can only embrace. It when arrives and give it away when it comes to your.
But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can
do and there is nothing you should do. Love always has been and always will be a mystery. Be
glad that it came to live for live for a moment ion your life. IF YOU KEEP YOUR HEART
OPEN IT WILL COME AGAIN.
