Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: I had to give a presentation at my job yesterday morning . When I got to work , I went into a conference room and turned on the projector . The projector always takes a few minutes to warm up , so while I was waiting I turned on my computer and pulled up my slides for the presentation . By this time , the projector was warmed up . I wanted to attach my computer to the projector so my slides would come up on the screen . I found the long , black cable with the HDMI plug , and attached it to my computer . I then put my laptop , still connected to the projector , up on the podium with me so I could switch slides quickly while I was talking . Finally , l took out my laser pointer so I could point at my slides . I was ready to present . Question: When was everything ready to go? Option1: before plugging in the computer. Option2: Once the author had connected to the projector.
Output (English): Once the author had connected to the projector.
