Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: The other day , I planned for a large family gathering . Since I knew that my house would be crowded with many members of my family and friends , I knew that I would have to both clean and set the dining room table . As a result , I first cleared everything off of the table and found a clean spot for it . I received help from my girlfriend , who brought me the utensils as I placed them on the table . This was an easy experience and I felt like I was able to achieve my goal relatively quickly . Soon after , the table had a placemat , as well as everything that we needed on the dinner table . Everything was clean and looked orderly . I was proud that we were able to set the table and I felt confident that everyone would like the way that it looked . Question: What did they clean? Option1: the dining table Option2: the placemat
Output (English): the dining table
