Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: I put on one of my favorite old shirts to go to work , and I noticed that one of the buttons was about to come off ! I wanted to wear that shirt to work so I quickly pulled my sewing kit out of the closet and got to work . I detached the button from my shirt and took out the old thread . I got a new piece of thread out of my sewing kit and weaved it through the eye in the needle . I then added on the button and weaved the needle through the holes in my button . I went through each hole in the button about five times to make sure it was secure . Once I was confident the button would n't fall off , I tied off the string and cut it . I buttoned it through the whole and left for work . Question: What was tied before working the needle and thread? Option1: The lace. Option2: a knot in the end of the thread
Output (English): a knot in the end of the thread
