Question restatement: The prompt asks which steps to take to replace a word in your document with a synonym.
Option 1: 'Select the word and then choose one of the synonyms displayed on the Mini toolbar.' In some word processors, a mini toolbar can appear with formatting options after selecting text, but synonyms are not universally shown there; this makes this option plausibly misleading because it depends on the software version and may not reliably provide a synonym choice.
Option 2: 'Click the Spelling & Grammar button on the Review ribbon and choose a synonym from the suggestions in the Proofing pane.' This describes using spelling/grammar features, which are separate from synonym suggestions. While Proofing pane may offer corrections, it typically does not present a direct synonym substitution workflow, so this is not a standard method for replacing a word with a synonym.
Option 3: 'Click Synonyms on the Review window and choose a synonym from the drop-down menu.' The wording here implies there is a Synonyms option within the Review window. In many Word-like interfaces, there isn’t a dedicated 'Synonyms' button in a generic 'Review' pane with a drop-down; this makes this description less accurate as a universal step.
Option 4: 'Right-click the selected word to display the shortcut menu, click Synonyms on the menu to display a list of synonyms, and select one of the options.' This aligns with the common, widely supported workflow: select the word, open the shortcut/context menu with a right-click, choose 'Synonyms', then pick a replacement from the list. This is a reliable and standard method across many word processors.
Analysis of the plausibility of each option:
- Option 1 may be partially true in some interfaces, but it is not consistently available across programs, so it’s not the most general correct choice.
- Option 2 conflates spelling/grammar features with synonym replacement, which is conceptually incorrect for replacing a word with a synonym.
- Option 3 asserts a specific UI placement that isn’t standard across typical word processors; it may not be present in all versions.
- Option 4 matches the well-established right-click synonyms workflow, which most users can rely on to substitute a word with a synonym.
Therefore, the option that most accurately describes a universally recognized step-by-step method is the fourth option, as it explicitly outlines selecting the word, invoking the Synonyms menu via the context menu, and choosing a synonym. The reasoning above explains why the other options are less accurate or less universally applicable across common word processing tools.
