What's a foil?
"Foil" is the term we used for the statements in radio-response and option-response problems.  For example:

Which of the statements are true and which are false:
2 is greater than 4
5 is less than 10
7 is odd
6 is odd
4 is even

Each of the statements above are a foil and the "options" are True and False given in the drop-down boxes.
