  1. Define Missing Word Groups and Answers:

Enter the option texts for each missing word and assign them to the appropriate answer option group. Since this example includes only one missing word, there will be a single answer option group (Group 1). If the question contains two missing words, corresponding answer option groups (Group 1 and Group 2) should be created.

After entering all option texts for each missing word group, select the checkbox “Mark this as the correct answer option” for the appropriate option. This ensures that the system awards the correct score when the user selects the correct answer.
