Question

When a user creates a 'Section Break (Next Page)' in a long document, which of the following attributes can be uniquely modified for the new section without affecting the previous one?

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2025 Tier 2 Paper 1 Question Paper (19-Jan-2026)
The correct answer is

Page orientation and margin settings

A Section Break (Next Page) divides a Word document into independent sections, and this matters because many page-level settings can be configured separately for each section.

After such a break, page orientation and margin settings can be modified uniquely for the new section without affecting the previous one.

This is exactly how a single document can mix, for example, a portrait section for text with a landscape section for a wide table, each with its own margins.

The AutoCorrect replacement list is an application-wide setting shared across all documents, so it is not tied to any section.

The font face of the 'Normal' style is defined at the document (style) level, so changing it affects every section that uses that style, not just one.

The document's 'Properties' metadata, such as title or author, belongs to the whole file and cannot vary from section to section.

Because only page-setup attributes like orientation and margins are section-scoped, the correct answer is Page orientation and margin settings.
