Personally, I would prefer using the same number throughout. Four
choices makes it easier to construct the questions, five makes the
questions more discriminating (it makes guessing a little more
difficult), but on balance I think it's better to have more questions
with four choices than fewer with five choices.

Which could instead be something like:
zo ci'onrai ma dunli lo ka valsi
A. zo cikrai
B. zo cimrai
C. zo cinrai
D. zo citrai
