New Rise Feature: Matching Questions

Hi All,

I created a couple matching questions. On testing, i received a feedback that the UX around the matching was hard to follow. Another user pointed out that it was challenging. I am wondering if there is a better way to design these matching questions. Are there any same instructions that have worked well? Can we color the text box or the outline? Or is there any other engagement elements we could use that is not a multiple choice/ multiple response or fill in the blank.

Thanks in advance.
