In this task, you need to write an incorrect answer to the given question. Along with the question, you are also given the correct answer(s) and the associated paragraph. An incorrect answer should be closely related to the content of the paragraph and/or the question but will not truthfully answer the question. Your incorrect answers should be similar to the given correct answer such that it will pose a challenge for students to distinguish the two. A good incorrect answer should prevent those who skip the paragraph from answering the question. The incorrect answer should not be trivial, in the sense that they should not be easily eliminated without reading the paragraph.
One example is below.
Q: Paragraph- Sent 1: It was hot that day.
Sent 2: The temperature on the wall of the backyard was showing something well over 100 F.
Sent 3: Meanwhile Tom, at home, was trying finish the remainder of carrots from last night, and packing for his trip to Chicago tomorrow.
Sent 4: As employees of the Art Museum, Tom and his older cousin often had to travel to Chicago. Question: What was the temperature outside, when Tom was eating carrots? Correct Answer: well over 100 F.
A: Not very hot.
Rationale: This is a good incorrect answer, as most of the the words of this answer appear in the the paragraph. They are also related to the content of the question (temperature), yet do not answer the question correctly. Consequently, one has to carefully read the paragraph understand that "not very hot" does not answer the question.
Q: Paragraph- Sent 1: On December 4, as news came in about the discoveries in Jordan, National Security Council (NSC) Counterterrorism Coordinator Richard Clarke wrote Berger, "If George's [Tenet's] story about a planned series of UBL attacks at the Millennium is true, we will need to make some decisions NOW."Sent 2: He told us he held several conversations with President Clinton during the crisis.

Sent 5: Warned by the CIA that the disrupted Jordanian plot was probably part of a larger series of attacks intended for the millennium, some possibly involving chemical weapons, the Principals Committee met on the night of December 8 and decided to task Clarke's Counterterrorism Security Group (CSG) to develop plans to deter and disrupt al Qaeda plots.

Sent 11: As Ambassador William Milam reported from Islamabad, Musharraf was "unwilling to take the political heat at home."Sent 12: The CIA worked hard with foreign security services to detain or at least keep an eye on suspected  Bin Laden associates.

Sent 14: Disruption and arrest operations were mounted against terrorists in eight countries.
Sent 15: In mid-December, President Clinton signed a Memorandum of Notification (MON) giving the CIA broader authority to use foreign proxies to detain  Bin Laden lieutenants, without having to transfer them to U.S. custody.
