Task: Question Generation
Input (English): Context: I got it into my head then that I wanted to stand up on the waves , like those fearless , sun - bronzed teenage boys at Newport . When I developed a crush on one such boy , I finally went for it . But I did n't make much progress with my surfing coach , whose teaching technique consisted of periodically observing that I was falling a lot , and that women usually had more trouble with the pop - up than men , because we were " hippy . " Deflated , I gave up until six years later , when I was living in Boston and took my boyfriend to my hometown for a visit .
Output (English): Why did I want to surf ?
