For selecting a word, double-clicking is simpler than LWin+click, once you are using the mouse.

To select the whole paragraph make a triple-click.

To select non successive words hold the Control key and double-click each word.

To select successive words double-click the first word,
and extend the selection by holding down the left mouse button after the second click
or press and hold the Shift key and click at the end of the last word.
or press Ctrl+Shift+right arrow to extend the selection to the next word.
