The interface elements that you add to a GUI are known as widgets.
You’ve met one already: the button. There are lots of others. You were
to look at the names of some other widgets below and see if you could
match them with the correct description.

Drop down list A widget that provides a way for large and
small amounts of text to be entered

Label A separate window that pops up to request
additional information from the user

a window

Menu The combination of a drop-down list and
a text box

Combo box A widget that allows you to select one item
from a large list

order to display the results.
