Please note that Ctrl-Shift-C and Ctrl-Shift-V will *not* work as you expect in traditional terminal emulators. Although, with the number of different programs in Debian, I'm willing to accept that it may work in at least *one* terminal. In a typical terminal emulator, Ctrl-Shift-C will do exactly the same thing as Ctrl-C (which is normally "send the interrupt signal"), and Ctrl-Shift-V will do the same thing as Ctrl-V (which is normally "prevent the special meaning of the next key and treat it literally"). Generally, if you're coming from a Microsoft Windows tradition, you may have better luck using Shift-Insert for pasting. This works in many terminals, as well as almost all of the Big Windows-Style Applications such as web browsers.
