It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet titled "Job Skill Definitions #1", which is a matching exercise. The task is to match the job skill terms on the left (numbered 1–12) with their correct definitions on the right (labeled A–J). However, some of the definitions are repeated or there are more definitions than needed.

Let’s solve this step by step.

Step 1: List the Terms and Definitions

Terms (Left Column):
1. Safety conscious
2. Work habits
3. Keyboard skills
4. Confidence
5. Completes work
6. Manages stress
7. Work quality
8. Stamina
9. Sequential order
10. Tries new tasks
11. Trustworthy
12. Good attendance

Definitions (Right Column):
A. Finishes all parts of task or work
B. Staying power, strength to finish
C. Attempts a new activity
D. Show up every day for work
E. Is aware of possible danger

H. A usual or frequent way of acting or doing something
I. Dependable or reliable
J. Handle yourself under pressure
K. Ability and knowledge to use a computer or calculator well
L. Making sure all the details of a task or job are correct

Note: There are 12 terms but 13 definitions (A–L), so one definition will not be used.

Step 2: Match Each Term to Its Best Definition

Let’s go through each term:

1. Safety conscious → Being aware of dangers
→ E. Is aware of possible danger

2. Work habits → Regular ways of working
→ H. A usual or frequent way of acting or doing something

3. Keyboard skills → Using a keyboard effectively
→ K. Ability and knowledge to use a computer or calculator well
*(Note: This is a bit broad, but it's the best fit among options)*

4. Confidence → Belief in one's own abilities
→ F. Believes in own abilities

5. Completes work → Finishing all parts of a task
→ A. Finishes all parts of task or work

6. Manages stress → Handling pressure well
→ J. Handle yourself under pressure

7. Work quality → Accuracy and attention to detail
→ L. Making sure all the details of a task or job are correct

8. Stamina → Endurance, staying power
→ B. Staying power, strength to finish

9. Sequential order → Arranged in order
→ G. Arranged or sorted into numerical order

10. Tries new tasks → Willingness to attempt new things
→ C. Attempts a new activity

11. Trustworthy → Reliable and dependable
→ I. Dependable or reliable

12. Good attendance → Showing up regularly
→ D. Show up every day for work

Step 3: Final Matching

Now let’s list the correct matches:

1. Safety conscious → E
2. Work habits → H
3. Keyboard skills → K
4. Confidence → F
5. Completes work → A
6. Manages stress → J
7. Work quality → L
8. Stamina → B
9. Sequential order → G
10. Tries new tasks → C
11. Trustworthy → I
12. Good attendance → D

Step 4: Unused Definition

The only definition not used is:
- None — Wait! Let's check: We have 12 terms and 13 definitions (A–L), but we used:
- A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L → All 12 used.
- So actually, all definitions from A to L are used, but there are only 12 terms.

Wait — that means one definition is extra.

But looking back: Definitions listed are A–L (12 letters), but the list shows A to L = 12 items? Let's count:

A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L → That’s 12 definitions.

So it matches perfectly.

Earlier I said "13", but no — A to L is 12 letters.

So all 12 definitions are used.

✔ Final Answer (Matching):

| Number | Term | Letter |

| 6 | Manages stress | J |
| 7 | Work quality | L |
| 8 | Stamina | B |
| 9 | Sequential order | G |
| 10 | Tries new tasks | C |
| 11 | Trustworthy | I |
| 12 | Good attendance | D |

✔ Explanation Summary:

Each term was matched based on its meaning:

- Safety conscious = being aware of danger → E
- Work habits = regular behaviors at work → H
- Keyboard skills = using computers → K
- Confidence = belief in self → F

- Manages stress = handles pressure → J
- Work quality = attention to detail → L
- Stamina = endurance → B
- Sequential order = arranged in order → G
