To determine which table provides points for an even function, we need to check if the function satisfies the property \( f(-x) = f(x) \) for all values of \( x \).

Let's analyze each table:

1. **Table 1**:
- \( f(-1) = -1 \)
- \( f(1) = 0 \)
- \( f(-2) = -2 \)
- \( f(2) = 1 \)
- This does not satisfy the even function condition, as \( f(-1) \neq f(1) \) and \( f(-2) \neq f(2) \).

2. **Table 2**:
- \( f(-1) = 1 \)
- \( f(1) = 1 \)
- \( f(-2) = 16 \)
- \( f(2) = 16 \)
- This satisfies the even function condition since \( f(-1) = f(1) \) and \( f(-2) = f(2) \).

3. **Table 3**:
- \( f(-1) = -1 \)
- \( f(1) = 1 \)
- \( f(-2) = -8 \)
- \( f(2) = 8 \)
- This does satisfy the even function condition since \( f(-1) = f(1) \) and \( f(-2) = f(2) \).

4. **Table 4**:
- \( f(-1) = 2 \)
- \( f(1) = -2 \)
- \( f(-2) = 0 \)
- \( f(2) = -1 \)
- This does not satisfy the even function condition, as \( f(-1) \neq f(1) \) and \( f(-2) \neq f(2) \).

Based on this analysis, **Table 2** and **Table 3** could represent even functions. However, only one table can be correct. Therefore, if we are choosing the primary table, **Table 2** is generally recognized to be the correct one for it includes the even properties clearly.

***Final Answer: Table 2***
