{"sense_index": 3}

The context indicates that the understanding of genes is "expected to produce an array of new strategies." This usage means the understanding will "cause to happen" or "bring about" new strategies—essentially creating a result. This matches sense 3 ("cause to happen, occur or exist") perfectly, with the synonyms "bring about" and "give rise to" being most appropriate here.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context carefully:

"An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an array of new strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention."

The word "produce" here means to cause something to come into being or to result in. The scientists' understanding is expected to result in/cause "an array of new strategies."

Let me examine each sense:

1. sense_key=produce%2:36:02:: - "bring forth or yield" - This is more about natural production (like trees producing fruit)
2. sense_key=produce%2:36:00:: - "create or manufacture a man-made product" - This is about making manufactured goods
3. sense_key=produce%2:36:03:: - "cause to happen, occur or exist" - This means to bring about or cause something to occur. Example: "This procedure produces a curious effect; The new law gave rise to many complaints"
4. sense_key=produce%2:39:01:: - "bring out for display" - This is about showing or displaying something
5. sense_key=produce%2:36:05:: - "cultivate by growing" - This is about agricultural production
6. sense_key=produce%2:39:00:: - "bring onto the market or release" - This is about releasing products to market
7. sense_key=produce%2:29:00:: - "come to have or undergo a change" - This is about developing physical features

In the context "An emerging understanding... is expected to produce an array of new strategies," the meaning is clearly "to cause to happen" or "to bring about." The understanding will result in/cause these new strategies to emerge.

This matches sense 3: "cause to happen, occur or exist" with synonyms "bring about, give rise" and examples like "This procedure produces a curious effect; The new law gave rise to many complaints."

The answer should be: {"sense_index": 3}

The context describes "an array of new strategies" as a collection or assortment of multiple treatment and prevention approaches expected to emerge from genetic research. Sense 2 ("an impressive display") best captures this meaning, as evidenced by the example "a bewildering array of books," which parallels the use of "array" to describe multiple items of a particular type. Sense 1 (orderly arrangement with military connotations) is less appropriate, and senses 3 and 4 are clearly inapplicable.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context to determine the best sense for "array" in this sentence:

"An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an <t>array</t> of new strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention."

The context is about an expected collection/set of multiple new strategies for cancer treatment. Let me examine each sense:

1. Sense 1: "an orderly arrangement" - with example "an array of troops in battle order". This refers to a physical arrangement of things in order.

2. Sense 2: "an impressive display" - with examples "it was a bewildering array of books; his tools were in an orderly array on the basement wall". This refers to an impressive or notable collection of things, often displayed.

3. Sense 3: "especially fine or decorative clothing" - with synonyms raiment, regalia. This is clearly not the meaning here, as we're not talking about clothing.

4. Sense 4: "an arrangement of aerials spaced to give desired directional characteristics" - This is a technical term for antenna arrays, not relevant here.

In the sentence, "array of new strategies" refers to a collection or assortment of multiple strategies. The word "array" here means a collection or assortment of things.

Looking at sense 1 and 2:
- Sense 1 emphasizes "orderly arrangement"
- Sense 2 emphasizes "impressive display" and includes the example "a bewildering array of books" which seems to fit the usage of "array of strategies" better.

The phrase "array of new strategies" is describing a collection of strategies that will emerge. The sense that best fits is the one that means a collection/display of multiple items, which would be sense 2 - "an impressive display."

Sense 2 seems most appropriate because it captures the meaning of a collection or assortment of things, and the examples provided ("a bewildering array of books") parallel our usage ("array of strategies").

The context describes "new strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention" emerging from a developing understanding of cancer genes. The word "new" here refers to strategies that are original and unprecedented—approaches that haven't been seen before. This aligns with sense 2, which defines "new" as "original and of a kind not seen before" with the synonym "novel." The examples and context emphasize the innovative nature of these treatment strategies, rather than simply their recent discovery (sense 1) or merely unfamiliar character (sense 11).

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context for the word "new" in the sentence:

"An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an array of <t>new</t> strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention."

The context suggests that these are "new strategies" - strategies that are novel, original, and not seen before. They are being discovered through recent scientific progress.

Let me examine each candidate sense:

1. "not of long duration; having just (or relatively recently) come into being" - This could apply, as these are strategies for future treatment that are just being discovered.

2. "original and of a kind not seen before" - This fits well - these are novel strategies emerging from new understanding of genes.

3. "lacking training or experience" - Doesn't fit; we're not talking about inexperienced strategies.

4. "having no previous example or precedent or parallel" - This could fit - unprecedented strategies.

5. "other than the former one(s); different" - Possible but less specific.

6. "unaffected by use or exposure" - Doesn't fit.

7. "(of a new kind or fashion) gratuitously new" - newfangled - possible but the tone doesn't suggest unnecessarily new.

8. Historical language usage - not relevant.

9. Modern language - not relevant.

10. Early harvest stage - not relevant.

11. "unfamiliar" - Could apply.

The best fit seems to be sense 2: "original and of a kind not seen before" with synonyms "fresh, novel". The context emphasizes that these are novel strategies emerging from new understanding of genes. This captures the essence that these are original, never-before-seen approaches to cancer treatment.

Between sense 1 and sense 2, sense 2 better captures the idea that these are not just recently created but also original and unprecedented.

The answer should be sense index 2.

The context is about medical research and cancer treatment approaches. The word "strategies" refers to systematic plans of action for treating and preventing cancer, which corresponds to sense 1: "an elaborate and systematic plan of action." Sense 2 (military strategy) is clearly inapplicable in this medical/scientific context.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context to determine the best sense for "strategies" in this sentence.

The sentence is: "An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an array of new strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention."

Context clues:
- The passage is about medical/cancer research
- It talks about genes and cancer development
- The strategies are for "cancer treatment and prevention"
- These are plans or approaches to address a medical problem

Now let's examine the two candidate senses:

1. sense_key=strategy%1:09:00:: | definition=an elaborate and systematic plan of action | synonyms=scheme
   - This is a general definition of strategy as a plan of action
   - This could apply to medical strategies for cancer treatment

2. sense_key=strategy%1:09:01:: | definition=the branch of military science dealing with military command and the planning and conduct of a war
   - This is specifically about military strategy
   - This doesn't fit the medical context at all

In this context, "strategies" refers to plans or approaches for cancer treatment and prevention. This is clearly the general sense of strategy as a "plan of action" (sense 1), not the military sense (sense 2).

The answer should be sense index 1.

The word "future" is used here as an adjective modifying "cancer treatment and prevention," describing treatments that are yet to be developed or coming. This matches sense 1 ("yet to be or coming"), which is the straightforward adjective usage indicating something not yet existing but anticipated. The example "some future historian" is directly parallel to "future cancer treatment."

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context for the word "future" in the sentence:

"An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an array of new strategies for <t>future</t> cancer treatment and prevention."

The word "future" is used here as an adjective modifying "cancer treatment and prevention." It describes the treatment and prevention that will occur in the time yet to come.

Let me examine each sense:

1. sense_key=future%3:00:00:: | definition=yet to be or coming | examples=some future historian will evaluate him
   - This is the adjective meaning "yet to be or coming" - this fits the context well, as it describes future cancer treatment

2. sense_key=future%5:00:00:prospective:00 | definition=effective in or looking toward the future | examples=he was preparing for future employment opportunities
   - This is also an adjective, but means "effective in or looking toward the future" - this seems more about preparing for something or looking ahead

3. sense_key=future%3:01:00:: | definition=(of elected officers) elected but not yet serving | synonyms=next, succeeding | examples=our next president
   - This is a specific usage for elected officers - not applicable here

4. sense_key=future%3:01:00:: | definition=a verb tense or other formation referring to events or states that have not yet happened | examples=future auxiliary
   - This is a grammatical sense - not applicable here

The best fit is sense 1. The word "future" is describing cancer treatment and prevention that will happen in the time yet to come. It's the basic adjective meaning "yet to be or coming."

Sense 2 is also plausible, but sense 1 is the more straightforward and common usage. The phrase "future cancer treatment" simply means cancer treatment that will happen in the future, not specifically "looking toward the future" or "effective in the future."
Sense 1 is the correct answer—it's the most direct match for how "future" functions in this context.

Let me analyze the context to determine the correct sense of "cancer" in the sentence.

The context is about medical/scientific discussion of cancer:
- "Medical scientists are starting to uncover a handful of genes which, if damaged, unleash the chaotic growth of cells that characterizes cancer."
- "Scientists say the discovery of these genes in recent months is painting a new and startling picture of how cancer develops."
- "An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an array of new strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention."

This is clearly talking about cancer as a disease - the medical condition involving malignant tumors and abnormal cell growth.

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. sense_key=cancer%1:26:00:: - "any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division" - This matches the context perfectly. It's about medical disease.
2. sense_key=cancer%1:18:00:: - A person born under the Cancer zodiac sign - Not relevant

The context clearly indicates a medical sense of "treatment." The passage discusses cancer genes and strategies for "future cancer treatment and prevention." Sense 1 explicitly defines treatment as "care provided to improve a situation (especially medical procedures or applications that are intended to relieve illness or injury)," which perfectly matches the medical context of cancer therapy discussed in the passage. The synonym "intervention" also aligns with medical interventions for disease management.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context to determine which sense of "treatment" is most appropriate.

The target word is "treatment" in the phrase: "An emerging understanding of the genes is expected to produce an array of new strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention."

Context analysis:
- This is about cancer and medical research
- The discussion involves medical scientists discovering genes
- "treatment" is mentioned alongside "prevention" in a medical context
- It's explicitly about cancer treatment and strategies to handle illness

Now let me examine each sense:

1. sense_key=treatment%1:04:00:: - "care provided to improve a situation (especially medical procedures or applications that are intended to relieve illness or injury)" | synonyms: intervention
   - This is clearly a medical sense
   - Deals with medical procedures to relieve illness
   - The context is about cancer treatment (a disease)
   - This fits perfectly

2. sense_key=treatment%1:04:01:: - "the management of someone or something" | synonyms: handling | examples: the handling of prisoners; the treatment of water sewage
   - This is more general management/handling
   - While it could technically apply, it doesn't emphasize the medical aspect

3. sense_key=treatment%1:07:00:: - "a manner of dealing with something artistically" | examples: his treatment of space borrows from Italian architecture
   - This is artistic, not medical
   - Clearly not applicable here

4. sense_key=treatment%1:10:00:: - "an extended communication (often interactive) dealing with some particular topic" | synonyms: discussion, discourse
   - This is about discussing/writing about a topic
   - Not applicable in this medical context

The best match is clearly sense 1 (treatment%1:04:00::), which specifically refers to medical procedures and applications intended to relieve illness or injury. In the context of cancer treatment, this is exactly what is meant.

The phrase "That is for the future" refers to the time yet to come, when new cancer treatment and prevention strategies are expected to be developed. This is clearly the temporal sense (the time yet to come), not a grammatical sense (verb tense) or a financial sense (futures contracts).

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context to determine which sense of "future" is being used.

The sentence is: "That is for the future."

This is referring to the time yet to come. The context is about cancer treatment and prevention strategies that are expected to be developed in the time ahead.

Let me examine each sense:

1. sense_key=future%1:28:00:: | definition=the time yet to come | synonyms=hereafter, futurity, time to come
   - This refers to time that is yet to come, a temporal concept

2. sense_key=future%1:10:00:: | definition=a verb tense that expresses actions or states in the future | synonyms=future tense
   - This is a grammatical term referring to the future tense of verbs

3. sense_key=future%1:06:00:: | definition=bulk commodities bought or sold at an agreed price for delivery at a specified future date
   - This is a financial/trading term referring to futures contracts

In the context "That is for the future," the word "future" is clearly being used to refer to the time period that is yet to come. The speaker is saying that new cancer treatment strategies are something that will happen in the time yet to come.

This is sense 1: the time yet to come.

The answer should be {"sense_index": 1}.

The context describes scientists creating new tests based on newly identified genes. The verb "developing" here means "making something new" - specifically creating tests. This matches sense 1: "make something new, such as a product or a mental or artistic creation," which is supported by the examples of developing building materials and developing techniques.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context to determine the correct sense of "developing" in this passage.

The sentence is: "Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

The context shows that scientists are creating/making tests based on newly identified genes. This is about making something new - specifically creating new tests.

Let me review the candidate senses:

1. "make something new, such as a product or a mental or artistic creation" - This fits! The scientists are creating new tests.
2. "work out" - Less specific, not the best fit
3. "gain through experience" - Not applicable here
4. "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - Not applicable
5. "come into existence; take on form or shape" - Could work but less specific than sense 1
6. "change the use of and make available or usable" - Not the right context
7. "elaborate, as of theories and hypotheses" - Not about elaborating theories
8. "create by training and teaching" - Not applicable
9. "be gradually disclosed or unfolded" - Not applicable
10. "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution" - Not the right meaning here
11. "become technologically advanced" - Not applicable
12. "cause to grow and differentiate in ways conforming to its natural development" - Not applicable
13. "generate gradually" - Could fit, but sense 1 is more specific
14. "grow emotionally or mature" - Not applicable
15. "make visible by means of chemical solutions" - Not applicable (photography context)
16-21. Various specialized meanings not applicable

The best fit is sense 1: "make something new, such as a product or a mental or artistic creation" with examples "Her company developed a new kind of building material" and "They developed a new technique". The scientists are developing new tests, which is creating/making something new.

The word "based" in "tests based on the newly identified genes" means "founded on" or "using as a foundation/basis for." This matches sense 1 (use as a basis for; found on), with the example "base a claim on some observation" being structurally identical to the usage here. The tests are developed using the newly identified genes as their foundation.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the target word "based" in the context provided.

The sentence is: "Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

Here, "based on" means "founded on" or "using as a foundation/starting point." The tests are developed using the newly identified genes as the basis.

Let me check the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=base%2:31:00:: | definition=use as a basis for; found on | synonyms=establish, ground, found | examples=base a claim on some observation

This matches perfectly. "Based on" means "using as a basis for" or "founded on." The example "base a claim on some observation" is structurally identical to "tests based on genes."

2. sense_key=base%2:42:04:: | definition=situate as a center of operations | examples=we will base this project in the new lab

This would mean locating the tests physically in a location related to the genes, which doesn't make sense in this context.

3. sense_key=base%2:34:00:: | definition=use (purified cocaine) by burning it and inhaling the fumes | synonyms=free-base

This is clearly not relevant to medical science and cancer research.

The correct answer is sense 1, which matches the definition "use as a basis for; found on" with the example showing "base a claim on some observation" - structurally identical to "tests based on genes."

The context describes scientists discovering genes responsible for cancer. The phrase "newly identified genes" refers to scientists having recognized and established the identity of these genes through their research—they have determined which specific genes they are. This matches sense 1: "recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something."

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context carefully. The sentence states:

"Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes..."

The word "identified" here refers to genes that have been newly discovered and characterized by scientists. They have established which genes are the ones responsible for certain cancer patterns.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something" - This is about establishing/recognizing what something is. In context, scientists have discovered and recognized/established these genes as the specific ones involved in cancer.

2. "give the name or identifying characteristics of; refer to by name" - This is about naming or giving characteristics. The genes have been named/characterized in recent research.

3. "consider (oneself) as similar to somebody else" - Not relevant here.

4. "conceive of as united or associated" - This is about association, which could work (genes associated with cancer), but it's not the primary meaning.

5. "identify as in botany or biology, for example" - This is about scientific classification/identification, which is exactly what's happening in the medical context where scientists are identifying genes.

6. "consider to be equal or the same" - Not relevant here.

The most relevant senses seem to be 1, 2, and 5.

Looking at the context again: "newly identified genes" - scientists have recently recognized/discovered these genes in the course of their research. They have established which genes these are.

Sense 1 ("recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something") seems most appropriate. The scientists have established the identity of these genes - they've recognized which genes are which.

Sense 5 is also about biological identification, but that's more about systematic classification/naming, like botanical identification.

I think sense 1 is the best fit: the scientists have recognized/established the identity of these genes through their research.

The phrase "for the first time" refers to the initial temporal occurrence of predicting cancer susceptibility. Sense 1 ("preceding all others in time or space or degree") best captures this meaning - it emphasizes that this is the time that comes before any other time this capability existed, indicating the beginning or initial instance. This aligns with how "first time" is commonly used to mark the inaugural moment when something happens.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context carefully to determine the correct sense of "first" in this sentence.

The sentence is: "Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the <t>first</t> time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

The phrase is "for the first time" which means this is the beginning or initial instance of something happening. Let me examine each sense:

1. "preceding all others in time or space or degree" - This is about something coming before others in a sequence. While "first time" technically fits, this is a very general sense.

2. "indicating the beginning unit in a series" - This is about ordinal numbering (1st, 2nd, 3rd). This doesn't quite fit "for the first time."

3. "serving to set in motion" - synonyms: inaugural, initiative, initiatory, maiden. Examples include "inaugural issue", "initiative phase". This suggests something that begins or initiates.

4. "serving to begin" - synonyms: beginning. Examples: "beginning canto", "first verse". This is about something that begins or starts.

5. "ranking above all others" - This is about quality or superiority (foremost, world-class). This doesn't fit the context.

6. "highest in pitch or chief among parts" - This is about music/orchestra. Clearly doesn't fit.

The phrase "for the first time" means "at the beginning" or "initially" or "for the initial instance." This is about something serving to begin or set in motion.

Between senses 3 and 4:
- Sense 3 (opening/inaugural/initiatory) emphasizes "setting in motion" or beginning something new
- Sense 4 (opening/beginning) is more directly about serving to begin

The example "the magazine's inaugural issue" from sense 3 seems very similar to "for the first time" - both indicate the initial/beginning instance.
Sense 4 with "the first verse" also captures this idea of a beginning point. But reconsidering the temporal aspect—"for the first time" really emphasizes the ordering in time, where this occurrence precedes all others. That temporal precedence is most directly captured by sense 1, "preceding all others in time," which describes the initial occurrence in a sequence of events.

Let me analyze the context where "time" is used:

"Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

The phrase "for the first time" is asking which sense of "time" is being used here.

Looking at the candidate senses:

1. "an instance or single occasion for some event" - synonyms include "clip", examples: "this time he succeeded; he called four times" - This is about an instance or occasion

2. "a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something" - This is about time as a resource

3. "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" - This is about a period of time

4. "a suitable moment" - This is about when something should happen

5. "the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past" - This is about time itself as a concept

6. "a person's experience on a particular occasion" - This is about personal experience

7. "a reading of a point in time as given by a clock" - This is about clock time

8. "the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event" - This is physics-related

9. "rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration" - This is about musical rhythm

10. "the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned" - This is about prison sentences

The phrase "for the first time" means "on the first occasion" or "this is the first instance of something happening."

This matches sense 1: "an instance or single occasion for some event" with the example "this time he succeeded; he called four times"

The answer should be sense 1.

The word "otherwise" in "an otherwise healthy individual" means "in other respects" - the person is healthy in all other ways apart from their genetic predisposition to cancer. This matches sense 1, which defines it as "in other respects or ways," similar to the example "he is otherwise normal."

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context of the word "otherwise" in the passage.

The sentence is: "Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

Here, "otherwise" is being used to describe a healthy individual who would not be expected to get cancer. The word is modifying "healthy" to indicate that this person is healthy in all other respects, but may still be at risk for cancer based on genetic markers.

Let me look at the two candidate senses:

1. Sense 1: "in other respects or ways" with definition including examples like "he is otherwise normal; the funds are not otherwise available" - This means "apart from what is being mentioned" or "in other respects"

2. Sense 2: "in another and different manner" with synonyms "differently, other than" and examples "very soon you will know differently; she thought otherwise" - This means a different manner or way of doing something

In the context "an otherwise healthy individual", the word "otherwise" means "apart from genetic predisposition to cancer" or "in other respects". The person is healthy in other ways, but genetically predisposed to cancer.

This matches sense 1: "in other respects or ways" - meaning the individual is healthy in other respects/ways.

So the answer should be sense 1.

The context describes an "otherwise healthy individual" in relation to cancer risk. This refers to a person's physical health status—specifically, someone free from disease or infirmity. This directly matches sense 1, which defines "healthy" as "having or indicating good health in body or mind; free from infirmity or disease." The examples (a rosy healthy baby; staying fit and healthy) also align with describing the health condition of a person.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context and the candidate senses for "healthy" in this sentence:

"Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

The context is about individuals and their health status regarding cancer risk. The word "healthy" is describing an "individual" - a person who is not sick or diseased.

Let me examine each sense:

1. "having or indicating good health in body or mind; free from infirmity or disease" - This is about a person's physical or mental health status, being free from disease. Examples: "a rosy healthy baby; staying fit and healthy". This perfectly matches the context where "healthy individual" refers to someone without cancer or disease.

2. "financially secure and functioning well" - This is about economic health, which is not relevant here since we're talking about a person's medical condition.

3. "promoting health; healthful" - This would describe something that promotes health (like a healthy diet), but here "healthy" is describing the person themselves, not something they consume.

4. "exercising or showing good judgment" - This is about judgment or reasoning, not applicable here.

5. "large in amount or extent or degree" - This is about size/quantity, not applicable here.

The answer is clearly sense 1. The context is specifically about whether a person is "healthy" meaning "free from disease" (specifically cancer), which directly matches sense 1's definition: "having or indicating good health in body or mind; free from infirmity or disease".

The word "individual" in this context refers to a human being or person. The sentence discusses whether "an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer," clearly referring to a person undergoing medical testing. Sense 1 (a human being) with synonyms like "person, someone, somebody" is the correct interpretation, as opposed to the more general biological sense of "a single organism."

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context to determine which sense of "individual" is being used.

The sentence is: "Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

Let me look at the two candidate senses:

1. sense_key=individual%1:03:00:: | definition=a human being | synonyms=person, someone, somebody, mortal, soul | examples=there was too much for one person to do

2. sense_key=individual%1:18:00:: | definition=a single organism

In the context, "individual" refers to a person - specifically, a healthy person who might develop cancer. The context is about predicting cancer risk in people.

Sense 1 defines "individual" as "a human being" with synonyms like "person, someone, somebody, mortal, soul". This fits perfectly with the usage in the sentence where "individual" clearly refers to a person.

Sense 2 defines "individual" as "a single organism" which is more general and could apply to any organism, not specifically humans.

Given the context is about human health and cancer in people, sense 1 (individual as a human being/person) is clearly the intended meaning.

The answer should be sense 1.

The context describes predicting whether a healthy individual "is likely to get cancer" - expressing the probability or good chance of a future event occurring. This matches sense 1, which defines "likely" as "has a good chance of being the case or of coming about," with examples like "she is likely to forget" that parallel the predictive usage in the sentence.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context and the candidate senses for the word "likely" in this sentence:

"Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

The context is about predicting whether someone will develop cancer. The word "likely" here is being used to indicate probability - whether a healthy person has a good chance of developing cancer in the future.

Let me examine each sense:

1. sense_key=likely%3:00:00:: | definition=has a good chance of being the case or of coming about | examples=these services are likely to be available to us all before long; she is likely to forget
   - This is about probability/chance of something happening. The examples show future events with probability.

2. sense_key=likely%3:00:04:: | definition=likely but not certain to be or become true or real | synonyms=probable | examples=a likely result; he foresaw a probable loss
   - This is also about probability, similar to sense 1 but perhaps more formal/synonymous with "probable"

3. sense_key=likely%5:00:00:prospective:00 | definition=expected to become or be; in prospect | synonyms=potential | examples=potential clients
   - This sense means "prospective" or "potential" - someone who will probably become something in the future

4. sense_key=likely%5:00:00:credible:00 | definition=within the realm of credibility | examples=not a very likely excuse
   - This is about whether something is credible/believable

In the context of "predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer," we're talking about the probability that a person will develop cancer. This is most directly captured by sense 1 or 2.
Sense 1 best captures the meaning here with its definition of "has a good chance of being the case or of coming about." The provided examples—predicting service availability and the likelihood of forgetting—mirror the sentence's structure of forecasting future outcomes. While sense 2 overlaps significantly, sense 1 aligns more directly with the predictive nature of the context.

The context describes predicting whether a healthy individual will develop cancer. Sense 13 ("be stricken by an illness, fall victim to an illness") with the synonyms "contract, take" and the example "He got AIDS" is the best match. "Get cancer" means to become afflicted with or contract the disease, which is precisely what this sense captures.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context of "get cancer" to find the best sense.

The sentence is: "Already, scientists are developing tests based on the newly identified genes that, for the first time, can predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer."

The context is about predicting whether someone will become affected with cancer. Let me look at the different senses:

1. "acquire" - come into possession - doesn't fit
2. "become, go" - enter or assume a certain state or condition - this could fit
3. "cause to move" - doesn't fit
4. "receive a specified treatment" - doesn't fit
5. "reach a destination" - doesn't fit
6. "fetch, bring" - doesn't fit
7. "experience, receive, have" - could fit
8. "take vengeance" - doesn't fit
9. "achieve a point" - doesn't fit
10. "cause to do" - doesn't fit
11. "catch, capture" - doesn't fit
12. "grow, develop, produce, acquire" - this could fit (as in developing an illness)
13. "be stricken by an illness, fall victim to an illness" - contract, take - THIS FITS PERFECTLY! Examples show "He got AIDS" which is very similar to "get cancer"
14. "communicate" - doesn't fit
15. "give certain properties" - doesn't fit
16. "move into a desired direction" - doesn't fit
17. "grasp with the mind" - doesn't fit
18. "attract and fix" - doesn't fit
19. "reach with a blow" - doesn't fit
20. "reach by calculation" - doesn't fit
21. "acquire as a result of effort" - doesn't fit
22. "purchase" - doesn't fit
23. "perceive by hearing" - doesn't fit
24. "suffer from the receipt of" - doesn't fit
25. "receive as retribution" - doesn't fit
26. "leave immediately" - doesn't fit
27. "reach and board" - doesn't fit
28. "irritate" - doesn't fit
29. "evoke emotional response" - doesn't fit
30. "apprehend and reproduce" - doesn't fit
31. "earn or achieve a base" - doesn't fit
32. "overcome or destroy" - doesn't fit
33. "be a mystery to" - doesn't fit
34. "take the first step" - doesn't fit
35. "undergo injuries" - doesn't fit

The remaining senses don't apply to the context of contracting an illness. Sense 13 is clearly the correct interpretation.

The context clearly refers to cancer as a medical disease. The passage discusses genes that cause "chaotic growth of cells," cancer development and treatment, prediction of cancer risk, and specifically mentions "colon cancer." This is unambiguously sense 1—cancer as a malignant tumor caused by abnormal cell division—not the astrological or zoological senses.

reasoning_content:
The context is discussing cancer from a medical perspective - genes that cause "chaotic growth of cells that characterizes cancer," "strategies for future cancer treatment and prevention," "predict whether an otherwise healthy individual is likely to get cancer," and "a gene pivotal to the triggering of colon cancer."

This is clearly referring to cancer as a disease, not as:
- A zodiacal constellation (sense 3)
- A zodiacal sign (sense 4)
- A person born under that sign (sense 2)
- A genus of crabs (sense 5)

Sense 1 is defined as "any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division" with synonyms "malignant neoplastic disease" - this perfectly matches the medical context about chaotic cell growth, tumor development, treatment, and colon cancer.

The answer should be sense 1.

The phrase "set of discoveries" uses "set" to mean a group of related things that belong together. This matches sense 1, which defines it as "a group of things of the same kind that belong together and are so used," with examples like "a set of books; a set of golf clubs." The context makes clear that Vogelstein is referring to a collection of research discoveries about cancer-related genes.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context where "set" appears:

"It's a super-exciting <t>set</t> of discoveries, "says Bert Vogelstein..."

In this context, the speaker is referring to "a set of discoveries" - meaning a group or collection of discoveries. Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. "a group of things of the same kind that belong together and are so used" - examples: a set of books; a set of golf clubs. This fits perfectly with "set of discoveries"

2. "(mathematics) an abstract collection of numbers or symbols" - This is too technical and specific to mathematics

3. "several exercises intended to be done in series" - This is about exercise, not applicable

4. "representation consisting of the scenery..." - This is about stage/theatrical sets, not applicable

5. "an unofficial association of people or groups" - This refers to groups of people, not discoveries

6. "a relatively permanent inclination to react in a particular way" - This is about psychological disposition, not applicable

7. "the act of putting something in position" - This is about an action, not a collection

8. "a unit of play in tennis or squash" - Sports context, not applicable

9. "the process of becoming hard or solid..." - This is about physical hardening, not applicable

10. "evil Egyptian god..." - This is a proper noun/deity, not applicable

11. "the descent of a heavenly body below the horizon" - Astronomical, not applicable

12. "(psychology) being temporarily ready to respond in a particular way" - Psychological context, not about collections

13. "any electronic equipment that receives or transmits radio or tv signals" - Electronics, not applicable

The best fit is clearly sense 1: "a group of things of the same kind that belong together and are so used" with examples "a set of books; a set of golf clubs". The phrase "set of discoveries" fits this pattern perfectly - it's a collection of related discoveries.

The context emphasizes that these discoveries represent significant breakthroughs in cancer research ("super-exciting," "a new and startling picture," "productive insight" about molecular mechanisms). The passage highlights the meaningful scientific understanding gained from finding these genes, rather than focusing on the act of discovery itself or merely the physical objects discovered. This aligns with sense 3: "a productive insight" with the synonym "breakthrough."

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the context and the candidate senses for "discoveries."

The context is about medical scientists discovering genes related to cancer development. The passage describes:
1. Scientists uncovering genes that affect cancer
2. "The discovery of these genes in recent months is painting a new and startling picture"
3. "It's a super-exciting set of discoveries"

The researchers have found something new (genes) that provide new understanding about cancer at the molecular level.

Let me consider each sense:

1. **sense_key=discovery%1:04:00::** - "the act of discovering something" | synonyms: find, uncovering
   - This refers to the process/action of discovering

2. **sense_key=discovery%1:10:00::** - "something that is discovered"
   - This refers to the thing that was discovered (the genes themselves)

3. **sense_key=discovery%1:09:00::** - "a productive insight" | synonyms: breakthrough, find
   - This refers to a meaningful finding that leads to new understanding

4. **sense_key=discovery%1:10:01::** - "(law) compulsory pretrial disclosure..."
   - This is clearly not relevant in this medical context

Looking at the context:
- "the discovery of these genes" - this could be sense 1 (the act) or sense 2 (the thing discovered)
- "It's a super-exciting set of discoveries" - this is describing the findings as exciting

The word "discoveries" in "It's a super-exciting set of discoveries" is being used to describe what researchers have found. The context emphasizes that these are "super-exciting" and represent a "breakthrough" in understanding cancer.

This suggests sense 3: "a productive insight" with synonym "breakthrough" fits best because:
- The genes discovered represent meaningful insights into cancer development
- The context emphasizes the excitement and significance of the findings
- They're providing new understanding at the molecular level, which is a breakthrough in cancer research. The passage frames these findings as significant and transformative—"a new and startling picture"—rather than simply focusing on the physical genes or the act of finding them. The emphasis on what these discoveries reveal about cancer development points to sense 3.

I'll go with sense 3.
