Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: Last night I invited some friends over for dinner . I decided to set the dining room table for dinner , rather than have us all eat around the coffee table in the living room like my partner and I usually do . First , I chose the tablecloth .  I chose the floral one because I felt it was most appropriate for summertime . Next , I put a cloth napkin at each place and set utensils on top of the napkin - a knife , fork , and spoon . Then I placed a plate at each setting , four in total .  Then I put out the salt and pepper in the middle of the table so it was accessible to everyone . Lastly , I lit two candles and placed them in the center of the table as well . The dining room table looked great and ready for a dinner party . Question: When did they choose the patterned tablecloth? Option1: Before setting the table. Option2: last
Output (English): Before setting the table.
