 Hi, 
 I really just meant 
 "Vincent, please tell us. In question A, which choice do you think is correct? In question B, which choice do you think is correct?"

 ooops, sorry, I thought that's what you meant.

  I think you should first re-state your questions and the choices as well. Some words aren't used correctly, and there are also grammatical errors. I think that is what Clive is trying to say.
