These questions are not bad, but using them all the time is. You may need to ask more effectively by using more question types.

1. 2. Use Images in Questions

Students are often asked comprehension questions based on text that they have read. However, it is important for students to consider pictures used in the text as well. Pictures can help increase students' understanding of the text, topic, or story.

It would be nice if you can add some pictorial element to your questions.  That is where
QuizCreator helps. You can insert static images, screenshots and even Flash animations.
