Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: My girlfriend and I rented an apartment together so we could live closer to work . The walls were dirty so we asked the landlord if we could paint it . He said that we could so the next day we went to a supply store and bought a can of blue paint .  We laid down some tarps on the floor and taped the edges so that paint would not get on things we did not want it on .  After putting on some clothes we did not care about , we started to paint the walls . It took a long time and we opened the windows to let the paint fumes out . It was fairly fun as I enjoy spending time with my girlfriend .  Once we finished the room looked so much better . Question: What did they also buy to get the job done? Option1: Tarps. Option2: The apartment.
Output (English): Tarps.
