Question 2 Question 4

(Apologies, it's easier to draw than describe). 


So I don't want the multiple choices breaking to another page or going to 
another column. How can I achieve this?
I tried setting the intro flag of itemize but it doesn't work.

Here's what I did:

\item[columns]

...
\item Question
\startitemize[intro]
\item choice
\item choice
...
\stopitemize
...

\stopitemize

but the multiple-choice items would still break across pages and columns
