Answer : 1. "Professional work"
Explanation :

COBOL (Common Business Oriented Language) is a high-level programming language primarily used for business, finance, and administrative systems within companies and governments. It is particularly useful for handling large-scale, data-centric applications in areas such as accounting, payroll, inventory management, and other business-related tasks. COBOL is known for its readability and ease of use, making it suitable for professionals working on applications that require extensive data processing and business logic. Despite being an older language, COBOL continues to be used in many legacy systems, especially in industries where stability and reliability are paramount.

The clipboard is a temporary storage location that holds the data you have copied or cut until you paste it elsewhere (using Ctrl+V on Windows). The clipboard allows you to move or duplicate data within or between applications.

Answer : 3. "parsing"
Explanation :

This tree guides the generation of machine code or program execution, ensuring correct interpretation and execution of the source code.

Answer : 3. "ctrl+down arrow "
Explanation :

Actually, in MS PowerPoint (and most other word processing applications), the key combination to move down one paragraph is "Enter". Pressing the "Enter" key moves the cursor to the next paragraph. If you want to move the cursor down one line within the same paragraph, you can use the "Down Arrow" key. There isn't a specific default key combination to move down one paragraph in PowerPoint; it's more about using the "Enter" key to start a new paragraph.
