If the intent is to associate a word with a re-phrasing of the word's
meaning, it will be difficult to keep the re-phrasing from exceeding
the test level, unless it is for a test at a high level.
Questions should not be failed due to an ignorance of geography or any
other fields of knowledge besides Lojban. For instance, I don't know
of any Japanese birds, offhand. Is it a mountainish-chicken? That
doesn't ring a bell.
Including so many options is time-consuming. It would be difficult to
time how long it takes for the brain to access Lojban, and tell it
apart from how long it takes the brain to sort through all the
options. Live, timed tests are incredibly important. There is little
point in testing mere persistence, since a conversation that gets by
on persistence is not a very fluent conversation. Facility of recall
is a sadly overlooked ability in this particular language community,
and we need to put rewards in place for that to change.
I'm not sure this style of question can avoid all three of these pitfalls.
