The 1st one.
Its behavior is identical to my first attempt.
Clicking a white box will bring you to the black box of corresponding question,
so you can see you are at the end of the question.

2nd one's white box will bring you to the beginning of the next paragraph of the
question, so you might feel you've lost sense of where you are.
As I'm trying it myself, especially in 2-column layout, 2nd one seems too
aggressive.  I should have tested more before submitting.

So, please try the 1st one. And as I said before, it may take a while for you to
get used to it.

And it's okay with me if you decide to keep the behavior as it is.

                                                   Thanks, Akira
