Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: My family and I had planned to have a backyard barbecue party and fundraiser for our friends , neighbors , and family on Memorial Day weekend . We were all excited to have a party because this is an event we all attend every year , however this year we were unsure of the weather . After checking the weather the day before the event , we realized that we would have to cancel the party due to thunderstorms . Our house is too small to have a party inside , hence we could only have a party in our back yard . If people did not confirm that they had seen the email , then we went about sending them a text message or called them via phone until we got responses from everyone , so they knew we were not having a party . Question: What was being cancelled? Option1: The party Option2: The yard sale
Output (English): The party
