I realized that the shortcuts ctrl+shift+c/v doesn't work anymore in gnome-terminal, then I went to the keyboard settings, I tried to set a shortcut ctrl+shift+<any character> and didn't work, it is just like if the shift key was not held. I decide to check with the showkey command:
showkey -a
if I press ctrl+shift+c the output is ^C 3 0003 0x03
if I press ctrl+c the output is ^C 3 0003 0x03
if I press shift+c the output is C 67 0103 0x43
so the shift and ctrl keys works if they are combined with other keys but not together
Using the xev command and then ctrl+shift+c:

Other user in the same computer can use ctrl+shift+c/v on gnome-terminal, so I think its a matter of configuration in some place, I found that Ctrl+Shift is assigned in someway to layout switch, I already check if this shortcut is set on my keyboard settings but it is not, I don't know when and where was set this combination, if I can know how to disable Ctrl+Shift keyboard layout switch, maybe this will be the solution.
Also I checked the /etc/default/keyboard file:
vim /etc/default/keyboard
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,latam"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_space_toggle"
BACKSPACE="guess"
I went to all settings > Region & Language > Input Sources Options I found that 'Alternative switch to the next source' is set to Ctrl+Shift, in that window says 'You can change these shortcuts in the keyboard settings' although if I go to keyboard settings this Ctrl+Shift is not assigned to any command, in fact it doesn't allows me to use Ctrl+Shift alone (it has to be Ctrl+Shift+key).
