Part 1. Definition
You are given a paragraph, with numbered sentences, and a question. Write the numbers of the sentences needed to answer the given question. Separate multiple sentence numbers with a comma (", "). E.g. "1, 2" would be the correct response if Sent 1 and Sent 2 are needed to answer the given question (do not include sentences that contain no information that is necessary to answer the question). Sort the sentence numbers in an increasing order (i.e., '1, 2', instead of '2, 1'). Your answer should not contain anything than the sentence numbers separated by a comma (e.g. '1, 2, 3, 4'). The given question requires more than one sentence to answer. So, your answer must contain at least one comma (", ").
Part 2. 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.
Question: Who has to be appeased to keep the government open?.
Answer: 1, 2.
Explanation: The question is: Who has to be appeased to keep the government open? The phrase "appease Democrats" is mentioned in Sent 2, about accepting offer that is mentioned in Sent 1 to "keep the government open". So, Sent 1 and Sent 2 are the sentences needed to answer this question.
Part 3. Exercise
Paragraph- Sent 1: There was a little murmur of protest at this, for the house appeared to be scarcely bigger than the automobile.

Sent 3: The Major, moreover, had a vivid recollection of his last night's bed upon the roof of the limousine, where he had crept to escape rattlesnakes, and was in no mood to again camp out in the open while they traveled in Arizona.
Sent 4: So he advocated accepting Dan'l's invitation.
Sent 5: The girls, curious to know how so many could be accommodated in the bungalow, withdrew all further objections and stood upon the low, pergola-roofed porch while their host went inside to light the lamps.
Sent 6: They were really surprised at the cosy aspect of the place.
Sent 7: Half the one-story dwelling was devoted to a living room, furnished simply but with modest taste.
Sent 8: A big square table was littered with music, much being in manuscript--thus proving Dan'l's assertion that he was a composer.

Sent 10: A few good prints were on the walls and the aspect of the place was entirely agreeable to the old man's guests.
