In this task, you will be shown a conversation and a question. You should categorize the question into matching, summary, logic, arithmetic and, commonsense groups. Matching is a question entailed or paraphrased by exactly one sentence in a dialogue. The answer can be extracted from the same sentence. Questions that cannot be answered by the surface meaning of a single sentence belong to the reasoning category. We further define summary, logic, arithmetic and, commonsense subcategories. Answering summary questions requires the whole picture of dialogue, such as the topic of dialogue and the relation between speakers. We require logical reasoning to answer logical questions. in arithmetic questions Inferring the answer requires arithmetic knowledge. To answer commonsense questions, besides the textual information in the dialogue, we also require additional commonsense knowledge that cannot be obtained from the dialogue. Note that a question can be in more than one group. "W" and "M" in the conversations stand for "woman" and "man".

W: Wow, look at the line. It's worse than I expected. We are lucky we got here an hour earlier. Or else we will definitely have had problems getting tickets. I'm glad we made the effort to come early. M: Me too. I learned my lesson the last time I went to a new film. I didn't arrive early enough and ended up with a terrible seat all the way in the front row. Believe me, it was one of the worst movie experiences ever. W: Yeah. I hate sitting in the first row. M: By the way, it was really nice of you to get this ticket for me. Why don't I show you a bit of appreciation by getting you a drink? W: That would be great. M: OK. What kind of soda do you want? W: Let me see. I'll take a large coke. Thanks a lot. M: I'd better get going. You hold my place and I'll be back really quick. Oh, I almost forget. I'd better hold on to my ticket in case you get let in before I get back. If that happens, just save me a seat and I'll meet you inside. W: OK. It's a plan., Question: Why did the speakers go to the cinema early? (A) To get ideal seats. (B) To buy some drinks. (C) To avoid traffic jams.
