Part 2. Example
Passage: The outbreak of the Seven Years' War in Europe in 1756 resulted in renewed conflict between French and British forces in India. The Third Carnatic War spread beyond southern India and into Bengal where British forces captured the French settlement of Chandernagore in 1757. However, the war was decided in the south, where the British successfully defended Madras, and Sir Eyre Coote decisively defeated the French, commanded by Comte de Lally at the Battle of Wandiwash in 1760. After Wandiwash, the French capital of Pondicherry fell to the British in 1761. The war concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1763, which returned Chandernagore and Pondichery to France, and allowed the French to have "factories" in India but forbade French traders from administering them. The French agreed to support British client governments, thus ending French ambitions of an Indian empire and making the British the dominant foreign power in India.
Question: Which french settlement did the British capture first, Chandernagore or Pondicherry
Answer type: Span
Answer: Chandernagore
Explanation: British captured Chandernagore in 1757 ("The Third Carnatic War spread beyond southern India and into Bengal where British forces captured the French settlement of Chandernagore in 1757") and Pondicherry in 1761 ("After Wandiwash, the French capital of Pondicherry fell to the British in 1761."). Since 1757<1761, the answer is "Chandernagore".
Part 3. Exercise
Passage: The season started about as well as it could have, as the Washington Redskins started the season 62, with their two losses coming by a combined 11 points to the 2008 New York Giants season and 2008 St. Louis Rams season. Furthermore, Redskins star Clinton Portis led the NFL in rushing yards and Jason Campbell was just 40 pass attempts away from breaking Bernie Kosars record of consecutive passes to start the season without an interception. However, things turned for the worse on the eve of the United States presidential election, 2008, when they were routed 236 by the 2008 Pittsburgh Steelers season and Clinton Portis injuries finally caught up to him. The Redskins continued to struggle, falling all the way to 77, with their only win during that six-week period being a 3-point victory of the then-28 2008 Seattle Seahawks season, who would finish the season 4-12. The Redskins managed to upset the 2008 Philadelphia Eagles season in Week 16, but were eliminated from playoff contention after the 2008 Atlanta Falcons season defeated the 2008 Minnesota Vikings season 2417 that same week. The Redskins lost the final game of the season 2724 to the 2008 San Francisco 49ers season, despite having a 177 lead at halftime, losing on a Joe Nedney field goal as time expired.
Question: How many more points did the Pittsburg Steelers beat the Washington Redskins by in 2008?
Answer type: Number
Answer:
17.
