To select the greeting line that begins with 'Dear Mr. Wilson:' in a document, which action is described?

• A. Click the document text and select the text beginning with Dear Mr. Wilson:
• B. Use the Find feature to locate Dear Mr. Wilson:
• C. Press Ctrl+A to select the entire document
• D. Run Spell Check to find the greeting

Answer: (A)

To select a specific line starting with a given phrase, you place the cursor at the start of that line and highlight the text. The described action matches this approach: click the document text and select the portion that begins with “Dear Mr. Wilson:,” which highlights that greeting line. In Word, you typically click at the starting point and drag to the end of the line to create the selection. The Find feature locates text but doesn’t automatically select it, Ctrl+A selects everything, and Spell Check looks for spelling issues rather than targeting a specific line. So direct highlighting is the right method for selecting that greeting line.
