Default How do I stop Word putting big spaces between lines?

In a new Blank Document, without making any other changes, go to Page Setup
and change the vertical alignment to Top. Then click Default... and answer
yes to the ensuing dialog.

I followed all the steps the ^p replacing,and there were 38 of them. Then
did
the justified to the top setting and all this worked. No more typing one
sentence hitting enter and the next sentence starts at the bottom of the
page.
But I opened a new page and tried a couple sentences to see if it still
worked correctly, but it didn't. I have to change the setting from
justified
to top so all sentences stay together.
Please help.
And if you can tell me how to get back to a plain sheet of paper instead
of
a graph paper each time I open a new document cause I have no ideal how
that
happened. I opened it up and there it was.
