Hi @behn_foroughi 

Yes, as @Thats_W1cked stated, that can be done as a work-round. Canvas Quizzes do not have this as a native feature. However, it is also quite tricksie to set up, and you would need to manually grade the responses. In theory you could......

• Create four "Text Only" items in a quiz that could represent almost any item type.
• Then create two short answer graded items,
• Students would enter the number of the item they are answering then provide the answer.

Again, tricky and you would need to develop clear instructions that you hope your students will read and understand. I'm not thinking it is worth the time, but that is up to you.

Or, you could suggest this as a new feature for New Quizzes (Canvas no longer makes changes to their legacy Quizzes tool) in Idea Conversations.
