Teacher: You need to read the given passage and construct a question about the information present in the passage. The question should be answerable from the passage. Most importantly, only those questions are allowed whose answers cannot be determined from a single sentence. Do not generate questions that require only a single sentence to answer. Instead, try to combine two sentences and create a question from that combination. Do not create open-ended questions, i.e., the answers to them cannot be found precisely from the information provided in the passage.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
Paragraph- Sent 1: A Republican bid to keep the government open past Friday includes no new money for the construction of a border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, according to several congressional aides familiar with ongoing talks.
Sent 2: GOP leaders submitted the new offer Tuesday afternoon in an effort to appease Democrats, whose votes are needed to avert a shutdown of federal agencies, several House and Senate aides said.
Sent 3: However, Republicans also insisted on increases in border security and defense spending, including money to repair existing fencing and new surveillance technology to patrol the nearly 2,000-mile border.
Sent 4: Democrats have indicated that they would support such appropriations so long as no money goes toward an actual wall.
Solution: Who has to be appeased to keep the government open?
Reason: This is a good multi-sentence question because, "appease Democrats" is mentioned in Sent 2, while "keep the government open" is part of Sent 1. As this question requires more than one sentences to answer, it's a good question.

Now, solve this instance: Paragraph- Sent 1: Fact: It's easy to fall into patterns.
Sent 2: I would wake late, checking the clock on my room's lightscreen to make sure I hadn't slept through brunch.
Sent 3: I would join the rest of the ship for meals, and I would take my turn in the weight room.
Sent 4: I would watch old films on the entertainment screens, taking mental notes for later dinnertime discussions.
Sent 5: I would immerse myself in new virtual reality flicks.
Sent 6: I would attend afternoon dance classes, so that when the evening dances came around (modeled after the historical social gatherings of several hundred years prior), I would be less of an embarrassment to myself.
Sent 7: I did not ask questions.
Sent 8: I told myself I should.
Sent 9: I told myself that tonight, the observation period would end and I'd start puzzling out the ship's mystery.
Sent 10: But I fell under the ship's sway.
Sent 11: Bereft of my previous familiar life, I latched onto Kishori and Ray and Zheng, and Sarah with Alexis dragged along on her arm now and then (he was mostly her favorite dancing partner; she confided to us one night that his conversational skills left something to be desired).
Sent 12: I smothered thoughts of friends back on Earththis was my long-awaited vacation, my clean break and my temporary retreat; I'd try contacting those friends tomorrow.
Sent 13: I continued to care little for shipwide gossip, but our discussions of films and flicks, old and new, brought out my artistic, story-loving, argumentative side, a side of me I'd tucked into a back storage compartment during my years as an engineer.
Sent 14: It was a good life, if surreal.
Sent 15: But I wasn't sure I wanted the dream stage to end.
Student:
The author watched old movies and made mental notes about the films because of his growing interest in what types of discussions?
