Text normally appears black on the computer screen with the background being white or some other light color.  HIGHLIGHTING is when text is changed from black to white and the background around the text is changed to a darker color such as blue or black.  The sentence below is an example of highlighted text.

This is an example of text that has been highlighted.
So, how do you highlight text?  Follow these steps:

1)  Place the tip of the mouse cursor in front of or behind the words you wish to highlight.  You can highlight a single word, a sentence, a paragraph, or even entire pages of text.
2)  Hold down the left mouse button and don't let it go.
3)  Move the mouse cursor over the text you want to highlight.
4)  When everything you want is highlighted, then remove your index finger from the left mouse button.

Practice highlighting these four steps and then click on the number seventeen to continue.
