Thank you, Ben. Perhaps I did not state my question correctly or I did
not understand your answer because I am a novice in emacs. Please bear
with me once again to state what I want to do.

I am simply trying to go to the top/middle/bottom of the screen I see
at the moment.
I also tried your suggestion but that will take me to the
beginning/end of buffer but not necessarily what I see on the screen
at the moment.

For example, if I see the content of file in my emacs screen as
follows, I want to somehow to go to abc with one key stroke.

======================
abc
def
ghi
jkl
mno
======================

If I did not understand your answer correctly, please correct me.
Thank you once again.
