Can anyone explain what the purpose of this idea is? I wouldn't ordinarily care or think about something like this in relation to anything I do every day on the computer. In what sort of situation would this trick be necessary? I'm really mystified by this apparent power-user thing.

My wife is taking a jaws test for a job. There are 2 questions that I can not find the answers to. They both ask the key strokes to read the prior line or next line without moving the pc cursor. I know of no key stroke to do this without resorting to using the jaws cursor. Is there such a keystroke?
