Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: I was thirsty so I decided to make a cup of tea . I looked through my box of teas and rifled through the assorted flavors . I settled on Earl Gray , which is a black tea flavored with bergamot orange . I filled the kettle with water and placed it on the stove , turning on the burner so that it would heat up and begin boiling . In the meantime , I got out a teacup and saucer , and then removed the teabag from the package and placed it into the empty cup . After a time , the water on the stove began boiling , so I removed it from the stove top and poured a cup-size amount into the teacup . I removed a spoon from the drawer and placed it in the cup , stirring gently as the contents of the teabag were released and began to color the water a light brown . After some more stirring , the teabag 's contents were entirely released and the tea was ready to drink . Question: What was covering the teabag? Option1: boiling water Option2: A lid
Output (English): boiling water
