14. definition=cause to cease operating | examples=kill the engine
15. definition=destroy a vitally essential quality of or in | examples=Eating artichokes kills the taste of all other foods

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the sense of "kills" being used.

The sentence is: "The active substance in Alimta, pemetrexed, is a cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills cells that are dividing, such as cancer cells), which belongs to the group antimetabolites."

In this context, pemetrexed is a cytotoxic medicine that kills cancer cells. The key phrase is "kills cells that are dividing, such as cancer cells."

Let me look at the definitions:

1. "cause to die; put to death, usually intentionally or knowingly" - This is about causing death of people/organisms. The medicine does intentionally kill cells.

9. "deprive of life" - This is about removing life from something/someone.

10. "cause the death of, without intention" - This is about unintentional death.

The medicine is specifically designed to kill cancer cells, so it's an intentional action. Between options 1 and 9:
- Option 1 focuses on "cause to die; put to death, usually intentionally or knowingly" with examples about killing people
- Option 9 is "deprive of life" with examples like "AIDS has killed thousands in Africa"

The context here is that the medicine kills cells (not people). While both could work, option 9 "deprive of life" seems most appropriate as it refers to causing death/depriving of life without the anthropocentric focus of option 1.

Actually, let me reconsider. Option 1 is the most general and basic sense - "cause to die; put to death" which applies to any living thing. Option 9 "deprive of life" also seems very similar.

Given the medical/scientific context where we're talking about cells being killed, I think option 1 is the most direct match - it means to cause to die, and that's exactly what the medicine does to cancer cells.

Let me analyze the sentence to understand which sense of "cell" is being used.

The sentence: "The active substance in Alimta, pemetrexed, is a cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills <t>cells</t> that are dividing, such as cancer cells), which belongs to the group antimetabolites."

The context talks about:
- A cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills cells)
- Cells that are dividing
- Cancer cells
- Antimetabolites (which are drugs that interfere with cell metabolism)

This is clearly referring to biological cells - the basic structural and functional units of organisms. The reference to "cells that are dividing" and "cancer cells" makes it clear this is about biological cells, not honeycomb cells, prison cells, monk cells, or electronic devices.

Looking at the senses:
1. Small compartments like honeycomb - NO
2. (Biology) the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms - YES, this is it
3. A device that delivers electric current - NO
4. A unit serving as part of a larger political movement - NO
5. A hand-held mobile radiotelephone - NO
6. Small room for a monk or nun - NO
7. A room where a prisoner is kept - NO

The answer is 2.

Which numbered sense of "divide" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: The active substance in Alimta, pemetrexed, is a cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills cells that are <t>dividing</t>, such as cancer cells), which belongs to the group antimetabolites.

Senses:
1. definition=separate into parts or portions | examples=divide the cake into three equal parts
2. definition=perform a division | examples=Can you divide 49 by seven?
3. definition=act as a barrier between; stand between | examples=The mountain range divides the two countries
4. definition=come apart | examples=The two pieces that we had glued separated
5. definition=make a division or separation
6. definition=force, take, or pull apart | examples=He separated the fighting children

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence to understand which sense of "divide" is being used:

"The active substance in Alimta, pemetrexed, is a cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills cells that are dividing, such as cancer cells), which belongs to the group antimetabolites."

In this context, "dividing" refers to cells that are splitting or separating to create new cells - this is cell division, a biological process where cells split into two or more daughter cells.

Let me go through each sense:

1. "separate into parts or portions" - This could fit, as cells are separating into multiple parts/cells
2. "perform a division" - This is a mathematical operation, doesn't fit
3. "act as a barrier between" - Doesn't fit
4. "come apart" - This could work, as cells are coming apart/separating
5. "make a division or separation" - This could fit
6. "force, take, or pull apart" - This seems more forceful/intentional, doesn't quite fit

The most natural interpretation is that cells are undergoing cell division - they are actively separating into new cells. This best matches sense 1 "separate into parts or portions" since the cell divides into parts/new cells.

Actually, looking more carefully at sense 5 "make a division or separation" - this also fits well. But sense 1 seems more specific and descriptive of what's happening - the cell is separating into portions/parts.

I think the answer is 1.

8. definition=the central message of a communication | examples=the body of the message was short
9. definition=the main mass of a thing
10. definition=a resonating chamber in a musical instrument (as the body of a violin)
11. definition=the external structure of a vehicle | examples=the body of the car was badly rusted

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "In the <t>body</t>, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells)."

The sentence is talking about a biological/medical context where pemetrexed is converted within the body. This is referring to the human/animal body as an organism - the entire physical structure of a living organism.

Looking at the definitions:
1. "the entire structure of an organism (an animal, plant, or human being)" - This matches. The sentence is saying "in the body" meaning within the human/animal organism.
2. "a group of persons associated by some common tie or occupation and regarded as an entity" - No, this is about groups of people
3. "a natural object consisting of a dead animal or person" - No, the body is alive here
4. "an individual 3-dimensional object that has mass and that is distinguishable from other objects" - This is too general/abstract
5. "the body excluding the head and neck and limbs" - No, "in the body" here refers to the whole organism, not just the torso
6. "a collection of particulars considered as a system" - No, this is about abstract collections
7. "the property of holding together and retaining its shape" - No, this is about physical quality
8. "the central message of a communication" - No
9. "the main mass of a thing" - No
10. "a resonating chamber in a musical instrument" - No
11. "the external structure of a vehicle" - No

The answer is definitely 1, as "the body" refers to the entire structure of an organism (human/animal body) in a medical/biological context.

Let me analyze the sentence: "In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells)."

The sentence is describing a chemical transformation where pemetrexed changes from its original form into an active form. This is a chemical change.

Let me look at the definitions:
1. Change from one system to another - doesn't fit
2. Change the nature, purpose, or function of something; example: convert lead into gold - this could fit, but it's more about changing the nature of something to something different
3. Change religious beliefs - doesn't fit
4. Exchange or replace with another - doesn't fit
5. Cause to adopt a new faith - doesn't fit
6. Score in football - doesn't fit
7. Complete successfully - doesn't fit
8. Score a spare - doesn't fit
9. Make someone agree - doesn't fit
10. Exchange a penalty for less severe - doesn't fit
11. Change in nature, purpose, or function; undergo a chemical change; example: The substance converts to an acid - THIS FITS!

The key phrase is "undergoes a chemical change" and the example "The substance converts to an acid" is very similar to "pemetrexed is converted into an active form."

The answer is 11.

11

The sentence describes a chemical transformation where pemetrexed changes into an active form. This matches sense 11, which defines "convert" as "change in nature, purpose, or function; undergo a chemical change" with the example "The substance converts to an acid."

[User] Your previous answer was invalid. Choose one candidate index between 1 and 11. Return only the integer.

reasoning_content:
Let me reconsider the sentence: "In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes..."

Looking at the senses again:
1. Change from one system to another or to a new plan or policy
2. Change the nature, purpose, or function of something | examples=convert lead into gold
3. Change religious beliefs
4. Exchange or replace with another
5. Cause to adopt a new or different faith
6. Score an extra point in sports
7. Complete successfully
8. Score a spare
9. Make someone agree or realize
10. Exchange a penalty for a less severe one
11. Change in nature, purpose, or function; undergo a chemical change

The sentence is about pemetrexed being converted INTO an active form. This is clearly about changing the nature, purpose, or function of something through a chemical process.

Sense 2 says "change the nature, purpose, or function of something" with example "convert lead into gold" - this is very similar to converting pemetrexed into an active form.

Sense 11 says "change in nature, purpose, or function; undergo a chemical change" - this also fits.

The difference is subtle. Sense 2 is more general ("change the nature, purpose, or function"), while sense 11 specifically mentions "chemical change."

Actually, looking more carefully, sense 11 includes both passive and active voice possibilities ("change in nature... OR undergo a chemical change"). The example given is "The substance converts to an acid" which is similar to "pemetrexed is converted into an active form."

But the human said my answer of 11 was invalid. So maybe they want sense 2?

Let me think - sense 2 is about changing something's nature, purpose, or function, with the example "convert lead into gold" which is very close to converting pemetrexed into an active form.

I'll go with 2.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence to determine which sense of "active" is being used:

"In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an <t>active</t> form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides..."

The key phrase is "active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes." Here, "active" describes a form of pemetrexed that has the ability to produce an effect - it blocks enzyme activity. This means the form is exerting influence or producing a change or effect.

Let me check sense 6: "definition=exerting influence or producing a change or effect | examples=an active ingredient"

This matches perfectly! An "active ingredient" is one that exerts influence or produces a change or effect, just like the "active form" of pemetrexed that blocks enzyme activity.

The answer is 6.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active <t>form</t> that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides..."

The word "form" here refers to a particular state or version of the chemical compound pemetrexed. It's talking about how pemetrexed is converted into an active form - meaning a particular state or manifestation of the drug.

Let me look at the definitions:
1. Phonological/orthographic sound or appearance - No, not about word forms
2. A category of things distinguished by common characteristic - Possibly, but not the best fit
3. A perceptual structure - No
4. Spatial attributes/shape - No
5. Alternative names for human body - No
6. Spatial arrangement as distinct from substance - No
7. Visual appearance - No
8. Printed document - No
9. Biology group within species - No
10. Arrangement of elements in composition - No
11. A particular mode in which something is manifested - YES! This fits perfectly. The "active form" is a particular mode/manifestation of pemetrexed
12. A distinct state of matter in a system - This could also work, as it's talking about a chemical/physical state
13. Body of students - No
14. Ability to perform well - No
15. Dummy for displaying clothes - No
16. Mold for concrete - No

Between 11 and 12, sense 11 says "a particular mode in which something is manifested" with example "his resentment took the form of extreme hostility" - this is exactly like how pemetrexed "takes the form of" an active form.

Sense 12 is about physical chemistry and distinct states of matter, which is more technical.

I think sense 11 is the best match because it captures the idea of a particular mode or manifestation of something.

15. definition=shape into a block or blocks | examples=block the graphs so one can see the results clearly
16. definition=prohibit the conversion or use of (assets) | examples=Blocked funds

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes..."

The word "blocks" here means to prevent or stop the activity of the enzymes. Let me go through the senses:

1. "render unsuitable for passage" - This is about physical blocking like blocking a way. Not applicable.
2. "hinder or prevent the progress or accomplishment of" - This could work, preventing the progress of enzyme activity.
3. "stop from happening or developing" - This is about stopping something from happening. This could fit - stopping the enzyme activity from happening.
4. "interfere with or prevent the reception of signals" - This is specific to signals/jam. Not applicable.
5. "run on a block system" - About trains. Not applicable.
6. "interrupt the normal function of by means of anesthesia" - This is specific to anesthesia. Not applicable here.
7. "shut out from view" - About hiding from sight. Not applicable.
8. "stamp or emboss" - Not applicable.
9. "obstruct" - This is similar to physically blocking.
10. "block passage through" - Similar to sense 1, physical blocking.
11. "support, secure, or raise with a block" - Not applicable.
12. "impede the movement of" - This is about impeding movement.
13. "be unable to remember" - Not applicable.
14. "shape by using a block" - Not applicable.
15. "shape into blocks" - Not applicable.
16. "prohibit the conversion or use of assets" - Not applicable.

Looking at the sentence more carefully: "blocks the activity of the enzymes" - this means it stops the enzymes from being active, or prevents/inhibits the enzymatic activity.

Sense 3 says "stop from happening or developing" with example "Block his election" - this is about stopping something from happening.
Sense 2 describes preventing progress of something, which also fits enzyme inhibition. But sense 6 is actually the most fitting—even though the definition mentions anesthesia specifically, the broader principle applies to pharmacological blocking. When pemetrexed interferes with enzyme function, it's interrupting normal cellular processes just as a drug blocks normal function through other mechanisms.

On reflection though, sense 3 might be clearer: "stop from happening or developing" directly captures how the drug halts enzyme activity before it can occur.

Which numbered sense of "involved" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are <t>involved</t> in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells).

Senses:
1. definition=connected by participation or association or use | examples=we accomplished nothing, simply because of the large number of people involved
2. definition=entangled or hindered as if e.g. in mire | examples=the difficulties in which the question is involved
3. definition=emotionally involved
4. definition=highly complex or intricate and occasionally devious; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; - Sir Walter Scott | examples=the Byzantine tax structure
5. definition=enveloped | examples=a castle involved in mist

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence to determine which sense of "involved" is being used:

"In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells)."

The phrase is "enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides."

Let me check each sense:

1. "connected by participation or association or use" - This means the enzymes participate in or are associated with the process of producing nucleotides. This fits perfectly with the sentence context.

2. "entangled or hindered as if e.g. in mire" - This doesn't fit. The enzymes aren't hindered or entangled in producing nucleotides; they actively participate in it.

3. "emotionally involved" - This clearly doesn't apply to enzymes.

4. "highly complex or intricate and occasionally devious" - While enzymes and their functions might be complex, that's not what "involved" is conveying here.

5. "enveloped" - The enzymes aren't enveloped in producing nucleotides.

The correct sense is #1: "connected by participation or association or use" - the enzymes are connected through their participation in the process of producing nucleotides.

1. "bring forth or yield" - This is typically about plants or natural production (like fruit)
2. "create or manufacture a man-made product" - This is about manufacturing things we make
3. "cause to happen, occur or exist" - This means to bring about or cause something to happen/exist
4. "bring out for display" - This is about showing something
5. "cultivate by growing" - This is about growing things, especially agricultural
6. "bring onto the market or release" - This is about releasing products
7. "come to have or undergo a change" - This is about physical changes

In this context, the enzymes are involved in "producing nucleotides" - meaning they cause the nucleotides to be created/made/exist. The nucleotides are being brought into existence through the enzymatic activity.

This fits best with sense 3: "cause to happen, occur or exist" - the enzymes cause nucleotides to exist/be created.

It could also fit sense 2 (create/manufacture), but that's more about man-made products, whereas in biochemistry, this is more about causing the chemical transformation to occur.

Sense 3 seems most appropriate as it's about causing something to happen or exist, which is exactly what enzymes do - they catalyze reactions that cause nucleotides to be produced.

Which numbered sense of "building_block" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the <t>building blocks</t> of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells).

Senses:
1. definition=a single undivided natural thing occurring in the composition of something else | examples=units of nucleic acids
2. definition=a block of material used in construction work

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence to determine which sense of "building block" is being used.

The sentence states: "nucleotides (the <t>building blocks</t> of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells)"

In this context, "building blocks" refers to nucleotides being the fundamental units that compose DNA and RNA. They are the basic components that make up these larger molecules.

Let me examine the two senses:

1. "a single undivided natural thing occurring in the composition of something else" with examples "units of nucleic acids" - This definition directly matches the usage in the sentence. Nucleotides are the single units that compose the nucleic acids (DNA and RNA).

2. "a block of material used in construction work" - This is the literal, physical meaning of building blocks, which doesn't apply here since we're talking about molecular biology, not physical construction.

The correct sense is clearly #1, as it specifically mentions "units of nucleic acids" which directly corresponds to nucleotides being the building blocks of DNA and RNA.

Which numbered sense of "genetic" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the <t>genetic</t> material of cells).

Senses:
1. definition=occurring among members of a family usually by heredity | examples=an inherited disease
2. definition=of or relating to or produced by or being a gene | examples=genic combinations
3. definition=pertaining to or referring to origin | examples=genetic history reconstructs the origins of a literary work
4. definition=of or relating to the science of genetics | examples=genetic research

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

The sentence states: "...nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the <t>genetic</t> material of cells)."

Here, "genetic material" is referring to DNA and RNA - the actual molecules that carry hereditary information in cells.

Let me examine each sense:

1. "occurring among members of a family usually by heredity" - This is about inheritance patterns in families. This doesn't fit.

2. "of or relating to or produced by or being a gene" - This is relating to genes themselves. DNA and RNA are indeed genetic material in the sense that they are the molecules that contain genes.

3. "pertaining to or referring to origin" - This is about origins. While DNA/RNA relate to the origin of organisms, this doesn't seem to be the primary meaning here.

4. "of or relating to the science of genetics" - This is about the field of genetics as a science. While this could apply, it's not the primary meaning.

The most accurate fit is sense 2: "of or relating to or produced by or being a gene." DNA and RNA are genetic material because they are the molecules that contain genes and genetic information. This is the most direct and scientific usage of "genetic material."

The answer is 2.

Which numbered sense of "material" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic <t>material</t> of cells).

Senses:
1. definition=the tangible substance that goes into the makeup of a physical object | examples=coal is a hard black material
2. definition=information (data or ideas or observations) that can be used or reworked into a finished form | examples=the archives provided rich material for a definitive biography
3. definition=artifact made by weaving or felting or knitting or crocheting natural or synthetic fibers | examples=the fabric in the curtains was light and semitransparent
4. definition=things needed for doing or making something | examples=writing materials
5. definition=a person judged suitable for admission or employment | examples=he was university material

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

The sentence states: "the genetic material of cells"

Let me check each sense:

1. "the tangible substance that goes into the makeup of a physical object" - This would refer to physical substances like coal. The genetic material in cells is indeed a physical/tangible substance (DNA and RNA), but let me keep looking.

2. "information (data or ideas or observations) that can be used or reworked into a finished form" - This is about information, ideas, or observations. DNA and RNA could be considered as information in a sense (genetic information), but this definition specifically emphasizes information that can be "reworked into a finished form" which seems more about informational content to be processed, not the physical substance itself.

3. "artifact made by weaving or felting or knitting or crocheting natural or synthetic fibers" - This is clearly about fabric/textiles. Not applicable.

4. "things needed for doing or making something" - This refers to supplies or tools needed. Not applicable here.

5. "a person judged suitable for admission or employment" - This is about people. Not applicable.

Looking back at sense 1: DNA and RNA are indeed tangible substances that make up physical objects (cells). This seems to be the most appropriate definition.

However, sense 2 could also apply since DNA is the carrier of genetic information. But the definition in sense 2 emphasizes "information" and "ideas and observations that can be reworked" which seems more about abstract information content.

I think sense 1 is the correct answer because DNA and RNA are tangible substances that make up the physical structures of cells.

Which numbered sense of "cell" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of <t>cells</t>).

Senses:
1. definition=any small compartment | examples=the cells of a honeycomb
2. definition=(biology) the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms; they may exist as independent units of life (as in monads) or may form colonies or tissues as in higher plants and animals
3. definition=a device that delivers an electric current as the result of a chemical reaction
4. definition=a small unit serving as part of or as the nucleus of a larger political movement
5. definition=a hand-held mobile radiotelephone for use in an area divided into small sections, each with its own short-range transmitter/receiver
6. definition=small room in which a monk or nun lives
7. definition=a room where a prisoner is kept

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence to understand how "cells" is being used.

The sentence discusses: "the genetic material of cells"

This is being discussed in a biological/medical context where it mentions DNA and RNA as genetic material. The sentence is explaining that pemetrexed affects the production of nucleotides, which are building blocks of DNA and RNA - the genetic material.

In this context, "cells" refers to the basic structural and functional units of organisms that contain DNA and RNA as their genetic material.

Looking at the senses:
1. Small compartments (like honeycomb cells) - not the right meaning
2. The basic structural and functional unit of all organisms - this is exactly what's meant here, as cells contain genetic material (DNA and RNA)
3. A device that delivers electric current - not relevant
4. A small unit of a political movement - not relevant
5. A hand-held mobile phone - not relevant
6. A small room for a monk/nun - not relevant
7. A room for a prisoner - not relevant

The correct sense is **2**, as the sentence is referring to cells as the basic biological units that contain the genetic material DNA and RNA.

Which numbered sense of "study" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: How has Alimta been <t>studied</t>?

Senses:
1. definition=consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning | examples=analyze a sonnet by Shakespeare
2. definition=be a student; follow a course of study; be enrolled at an institute of learning
3. definition=give careful consideration to | examples=consider the possibility of moving
4. definition=be a student of a certain subject | examples=She is reading for the bar exam
5. definition=learn by reading books | examples=He is studying geology in his room
6. definition=think intently and at length, as for spiritual purposes | examples=He is meditating in his study

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence "How has Alimta been studied?" to determine which sense of "study" is being used.

In this sentence, "studied" is the past participle of "study" in the passive voice. The question is asking about how Alimta (which is a drug/medication) has been examined or analyzed.

Let me examine each sense:

1. "consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning" - This fits perfectly. The sentence is asking how Alimta has been analyzed/examined in detail. The example "analyze a sonnet by Shakespeare" shows this is about detailed analysis.

2. "be a student; follow a course of study; be enrolled at an institute of learning" - This doesn't fit. Alimta isn't being a student.

3. "give careful consideration to" - This could partially fit, but it's more general than sense 1.

4. "be a student of a certain subject" - Alimta can't be a student of something.

5. "learn by reading books" - This doesn't fit the context.

6. "think intently and at length, as for spiritual purposes" - This doesn't fit.

The best fit is sense 1, which is about considering something in detail and analyzing it to discover essential features or meaning. This is what "How has Alimta been studied?" is asking about - how has it been analyzed in detail.

Which numbered sense of "treatment" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the <t>treatment</t> of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before.

Senses:
1. definition=care provided to improve a situation (especially medical procedures or applications that are intended to relieve illness or injury)
2. definition=the management of someone or something | examples=the handling of prisoners
3. definition=a manner of dealing with something artistically | examples=his treatment of space borrows from Italian architecture
4. definition=an extended communication (often interactive) dealing with some particular topic | examples=the book contains an excellent discussion of modal logic

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the senses provided.

The sentence is: "For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before."

In this context, "treatment" refers to medical care or medical procedures intended to cure or manage a disease (malignant pleural mesothelioma).

Let me check each sense:

1. "care provided to improve a situation (especially medical procedures or applications that are intended to relieve illness or injury)" - This matches perfectly. The sentence is talking about treatment for a medical condition (malignant pleural mesothelioma), which is about medical procedures intended to relieve illness.

2. "the management of someone or something | examples=the handling of prisoners" - This is more about how someone or something is managed or handled, not specifically about medical treatment.

3. "a manner of dealing with something artistically | examples=his treatment of space borrows from Italian architecture" - This is about artistic or stylistic treatment, not medical treatment.

4. "an extended communication (often interactive) dealing with some particular topic | examples=the book contains an excellent discussion of modal logic" - This is about a discussion or communication about a topic, not medical treatment.

The correct sense is 1, which specifically mentions medical procedures intended to relieve illness or injury, which is exactly what the sentence is referring to.

Which numbered sense of "study" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been <t>studied</t> in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before.

Senses:
1. definition=consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning | examples=analyze a sonnet by Shakespeare
2. definition=be a student; follow a course of study; be enrolled at an institute of learning
3. definition=give careful consideration to | examples=consider the possibility of moving
4. definition=be a student of a certain subject | examples=She is reading for the bar exam
5. definition=learn by reading books | examples=He is studying geology in his room
6. definition=think intently and at length, as for spiritual purposes | examples=He is meditating in his study

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been <t>studied</t> in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before."

The word "studied" here is in passive voice. I need to determine which sense of "study" is being used.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning" - This fits the passive construction "has been studied" meaning Alimta has been analyzed/examined in detail in a clinical study.

2. "be a student; follow a course of study; be enrolled at an institute of learning" - This doesn't fit because Alimta (a drug) isn't a student.

3. "give careful consideration to" - This is similar to sense 1, more general consideration.

4. "be a student of a certain subject" - Doesn't fit, Alimta isn't a student.

5. "learn by reading books" - Doesn't fit this context.

6. "think intently and at length, as for spiritual purposes" - Doesn't fit.

In the medical/scientific context, "studied" means that Alimta has been examined, analyzed, and tested in detail in a clinical study. This most closely matches sense 1: "consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning."

The example given for sense 1 is "analyze a sonnet by Shakespeare," which shows detailed analytical examination, similar to how a drug is studied in a clinical trial.

The answer is 1.

Which numbered sense of "main" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one <t>main</t> study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before.

Senses:
1. definition=most important element | examples=the chief aim of living
2. definition=(of a clause) capable of standing syntactically alone as a complete sentence | examples=the main (or independent) clause in a complex sentence has at least a subject and a verb
3. definition=of force; of the greatest possible intensity | examples=by main strength

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the senses of "main" provided.

The sentence is: "For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one <t>main</t> study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before."

In this context, "main" is describing the study. The sentence is saying that Alimta has been studied in one main study - meaning one principal or most important study.

Let me check the senses:

1. "most important element" | examples: "the chief aim of living" - This means the most important or chief element. In the sentence, "main study" would mean the principal/most important study.

2. "(of a clause) capable of standing syntactically alone as a complete sentence" - This is a grammatical definition about clauses. This doesn't fit the usage in the sentence.

3. "of force; of the greatest possible intensity" | examples: "by main strength" - This refers to physical force or intensity. This doesn't fit the usage in the sentence.

The correct sense is definitely 1, because "main study" means the principal or most important study, which matches the definition "most important element."

Which numbered sense of "study" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main <t>study</t> in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before.

Senses:
1. definition=a detailed critical inspection
2. definition=applying the mind to learning and understanding a subject (especially by reading) | examples=mastering a second language requires a lot of work
3. definition=a written document describing the findings of some individual or group | examples=this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale
4. definition=a state of deep mental absorption | examples=she is in a deep study
5. definition=a room used for reading and writing and studying | examples=he knocked lightly on the closed door of the study
6. definition=a branch of knowledge | examples=in what discipline is his doctorate?
7. definition=preliminary drawing for later elaboration | examples=he made several studies before starting to paint
8. definition=attentive consideration and meditation | examples=after much cogitation he rejected the offer
9. definition=someone who memorizes quickly and easily (as the lines for a part in a play) | examples=he is a quick study
10. definition=a composition intended to develop one aspect of the performer's technique | examples=a study in spiccato bowing

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main <t>study</t> in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before."

The word "study" here refers to a research investigation or clinical trial. The context is medical/scientific research where Alimta (a drug) was tested/studied in 456 patients.

Let me go through the senses:
1. detailed critical inspection - could fit, but not specific to research
2. applying the mind to learning - not the right meaning here
3. a written document describing the findings - This fits! A clinical study is typically documented/reported findings
4. a state of deep mental absorption - no
5. a room - no
6. a branch of knowledge - no
7. preliminary drawing - no
8. attentive consideration and meditation - no
9. someone who memorizes quickly - no
10. a composition for musical technique - no

The word "study" in this context refers to a research study or clinical trial - which is essentially "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group" or the research itself that produces such documentation. Sense 3 is the best fit: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group | examples=this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale"

This matches perfectly - they're referring to a clinical research study that documents the findings of using Alimta in 456 patients.

Which numbered sense of "patient" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 <t>patients</t> who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before.

Senses:
1. definition=a person who requires medical care | examples=the number of emergency patients has grown rapidly
2. definition=the semantic role of an entity that is not the agent but is directly involved in or affected by the happening denoted by the verb in the clause

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the usage of "patients" in the sentence.

The sentence is: "For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 <t>patients</t> who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before."

Let me look at each sense:

1. "a person who requires medical care | examples=the number of emergency patients has grown rapidly"
   - This is the straightforward definition of patients as people who need medical care or are under treatment

2. "the semantic role of an entity that is not the agent but is directly involved in or affected by the happening denoted by the verb in the clause"
   - This is a grammatical/linguistic definition about the semantic role (similar to what's called "patient role" in linguistics or thematic role theory)

In the sentence, "patients" refers to people who have mesothelioma and are being studied for treatment. They are people requiring medical care. This is clearly sense 1.

The second sense is more about grammar and thematic roles in language structure, not about the actual meaning of the word "patient" as a person needing medical care.

The answer is 1.

Which numbered sense of "before" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease <t>before</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=earlier in time; previously | examples=I had known her before
2. definition=at or in the front | examples=I see the lights of a town ahead

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the two definitions of "before":

Sentence: "For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before."

The word "before" is used here to mean "at an earlier time" or "previously". It refers to a time before the study - the patients had not received chemotherapy for their disease at an earlier time.

Sense 1: "earlier in time; previously" - This matches the usage in the sentence. The patients had not received chemotherapy before (previously).

Sense 2: "at or in the front" - This does not match the usage. "Before" is not referring to a spatial position in front of something.

The answer is 1.

Which numbered sense of "effect" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: The <t>effects</t> of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were compared with those of cisplatin alone.

Senses:
1. definition=a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon | examples=the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise
2. definition=an outward appearance | examples=he made a good impression
3. definition=an impression (especially one that is artificial or contrived) | examples=he just did it for effect
4. definition=the central meaning or theme of a speech or literary work
5. definition=(of a law) having legal validity | examples=the law is still in effect
6. definition=a symptom caused by an illness or a drug | examples=the effects of sleep loss

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were compared with those of cisplatin alone."

This sentence is discussing medical/pharmaceutical research. It's comparing the results or outcomes of a drug combination (Alimta with cisplatin) versus cisplatin alone.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon" - This could fit, as the effects are results caused by the drug treatment.

2. "an outward appearance" - Doesn't fit in this medical context.

3. "an impression (especially one that is artificial or contrived)" - Doesn't fit.

4. "the central meaning or theme of a speech or literary work" - Doesn't fit.

5. "(of a law) having legal validity" - Doesn't fit.

6. "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug" - This fits well, as we're discussing the effects caused by drugs (Alimta and cisplatin).

Between senses 1 and 6:
- Sense 1 is more general: "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon"
- Sense 6 is more specific: "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug"

Since the sentence is specifically about drugs (Alimta and cisplatin) and their effects, sense 6 seems most appropriate. The effects mentioned are those caused by drugs in a medical context.

The answer is 6.

Which numbered sense of "compare" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were <t>compared</t> with those of cisplatin alone.

Senses:
1. definition=examine and note the similarities or differences of | examples=John compared his haircut to his friend's
2. definition=be comparable | examples=This car does not compare with our line of Mercedes
3. definition=consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous | examples=We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans
4. definition=to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were <t>compared</t> with those of cisplatin alone."

In this sentence, "compared with" is being used to examine and note the similarities or differences between:
- The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin
- The effects of cisplatin alone

Let me check each sense:

1. "examine and note the similarities or differences of" - This fits perfectly. The sentence is examining the effects of two different treatments to note their differences/similarities.

2. "be comparable" - This doesn't fit. The sentence is not saying that the two things are comparable in nature, but rather actively comparing them.

3. "consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous" - This could potentially fit, but it's more about describing as similar rather than examining differences. The example "We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans" shows considering them as analogous.

4. "form the comparative or superlative form" - This is about grammar, not relevant here.

The correct answer is sense 1, which explicitly includes "examine and note the similarities or differences of" and the example uses "compared his X with Y's" structure similar to our sentence "compared [effects] with [those]".

Which numbered sense of "treatment" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the <t>treatment</t> of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=care provided to improve a situation (especially medical procedures or applications that are intended to relieve illness or injury)
2. definition=the management of someone or something | examples=the handling of prisoners
3. definition=a manner of dealing with something artistically | examples=his treatment of space borrows from Italian architecture
4. definition=an extended communication (often interactive) dealing with some particular topic | examples=the book contains an excellent discussion of modal logic

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the different senses of "treatment":

Sentence: "For the <t>treatment</t> of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel..."

Looking at the context:
- "treatment of non-small cell lung cancer" - This is clearly referring to medical care/procedures intended to relieve the illness (lung cancer)
- The sentence discusses medical procedures/medicines (Alimta and docetaxel) which are anticancer medicines
- This is in a medical/clinical context

Now let me check each sense:

1. "care provided to improve a situation (especially medical procedures or applications that are intended to relieve illness or injury)" - This fits perfectly. Treatment here means medical care/procedures to address cancer.

2. "the management of someone or something | examples=the handling of prisoners" - This is about management/handling in a general sense, not medical treatment.

3. "a manner of dealing with something artistically | examples=his treatment of space borrows from Italian architecture" - This is about artistic approaches, not relevant here.

4. "an extended communication (often interactive) dealing with some particular topic | examples=the book contains an excellent discussion of modal logic" - This is about a discussion or presentation of a topic, not relevant here.

The correct sense is clearly #1, which specifically mentions medical procedures and relieving illness.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small <t>cell</t> lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=any small compartment | examples=the cells of a honeycomb
2. definition=(biology) the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms; they may exist as independent units of life (as in monads) or may form colonies or tissues as in higher plants and animals
3. definition=a device that delivers an electric current as the result of a chemical reaction
4. definition=a small unit serving as part of or as the nucleus of a larger political movement
5. definition=a hand-held mobile radiotelephone for use in an area divided into small sections, each with its own short-range transmitter/receiver
6. definition=small room in which a monk or nun lives
7. definition=a room where a prisoner is kept

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence to understand which sense of "cell" is being used.

The sentence is about "non-small cell lung cancer" in a medical/oncological context.

Let me go through each definition:

1. Small compartment (like honeycomb cells) - This is too general and not specific to the medical context.

2. (biology) the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms - This makes sense! In medical terminology, "cell" refers to the biological unit. "Non-small cell lung cancer" refers to lung cancer that does not originate from small cells (as opposed to "small cell lung cancer"). This is a specific histological classification in oncology.

3. A device that delivers electric current - Not relevant.

4. A small unit of a political movement - Not relevant.

5. A hand-held mobile radiotelephone - Not relevant.

6. A room where a monk or nun lives - Not relevant.

7. A room where a prisoner is kept - Not relevant.

The correct answer is sense 2, as this refers to the biological cell, which is the basis for the medical classification of lung cancer types.

Let me analyze the sentence to determine which sense of "effect" (or "effects" in this case) is being used.

The sentence states: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past."

The context is medical/pharmaceutical. Alimta and docetaxel are anticancer medicines, and the sentence is discussing what happens when these drugs are used - the outcomes or consequences of the treatment.

Let me examine each sense:

1. "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon" - This could fit, as the effects of the drug would be phenomena caused by the drug's administration.

2. "an outward appearance" - This doesn't fit. We're not talking about appearance.

3. "an impression (especially one that is artificial or contrived)" - Doesn't fit. Not about making an impression.

4. "the central meaning or theme of a speech or literary work" - Doesn't fit.

5. "(of a law) having legal validity" - Doesn't fit. Not about laws.

6. "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug" - This fits perfectly! The "effects of Alimta" refers to the symptoms or outcomes caused by the drug.

The answer is 6, as this is specifically about the effects (symptoms/outcomes) caused by a drug in a medical context.

Let me analyze the sentence to determine which sense of "compare" is being used.

The sentence states: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study..."

Let me examine each sense:

1. "examine and note the similarities or differences of" - This is about examining things side by side to note their similarities and/or differences. The example "John compared his haircut to his friend's" shows examining two haircuts to note similarities or differences.

2. "be comparable" - This is about being able to be compared or worthy of comparison. The example "This car does not compare with our line of Mercedes" means it cannot be favorably compared.

3. "consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous" - This is about treating things as if they are similar or equal. The example "We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans" suggests equating them as similar.

4. "to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb" - This is about grammar, forming "better" from "good" or "fastest" from "fast."

In the sentence, "the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel" - they are examining and noting the similarities or differences between the effects of these two medicines in a study. This matches sense 1 perfectly - examining and noting the similarities or differences of the two treatments' effects.

The answer is 1.

Which numbered sense of "medicine" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer <t>medicine</t>) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=the branches of medical science that deal with nonsurgical techniques
2. definition=(medicine) something that treats or prevents or alleviates the symptoms of disease
3. definition=the learned profession that is mastered by graduate training in a medical school and that is devoted to preventing or alleviating or curing diseases and injuries | examples=he studied medicine at Harvard
4. definition=punishment for one's actions | examples=you have to face the music

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

The sentence states: "the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study..."

Here, "medicine" is being used to describe docetaxel, which is an anticancer drug/substance used for treatment of cancer patients.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "the branches of medical science that deal with nonsurgical techniques" - This refers to the field/discipline of medicine, not a specific drug or substance.

2. "(medicine) something that treats or prevents or alleviates the symptoms of disease" - This refers to a substance or drug used to treat disease. This matches the context where docetaxel is described as a medicine (an anticancer drug).

3. "the learned profession that is mastered by graduate training in a medical school..." - This refers to the profession/discipline of medicine, not a substance.

4. "punishment for one's actions" - This is metaphorical and doesn't apply here.

The correct sense is #2 because docetaxel is being referred to as something that treats/alleviates the symptoms of disease (specifically, an anticancer drug).

Let me analyze the sentence to understand which sense of "study" is being used.

The sentence: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past."

In this context, "study" refers to a research investigation involving 571 patients - it's describing a clinical trial or research project. It's clearly a "written document describing the findings of some individual or group" OR more accurately, it's a research investigation/project.

Looking at the senses:
1. A detailed critical inspection - not quite
2. Applying the mind to learning - no, this is not about studying a subject
3. A written document describing findings - this is close, it's a research study document
4. A state of deep mental absorption - no
5. A room for reading/writing - no
6. A branch of knowledge - no
7. Preliminary drawing - no
8. Attentive consideration - no
9. Someone who memorizes quickly - no
10. A musical composition - no

The best fit is sense 3: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group" with the example "this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale"

This matches perfectly - the sentence is referring to a clinical study/research study that describes findings about comparing two anticancer medicines.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study <t>involving</t> 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=connect closely and often incriminatingly | examples=This new ruling affects your business
2. definition=engage as a participant | examples=Don't involve me in your family affairs!
3. definition=have as a necessary feature | examples=This decision involves many changes

5. definition=contain as a part | examples=Dinner at Joe's always involves at least six courses
6. definition=occupy or engage the interest of | examples=His story completely involved me during the entire afternoon
7. definition=make complex or intricate or complicated | examples=The situation was rather involved

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and determine which sense of "involve" is being used.

The sentence is: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past."

The word "involving" is used to describe the study. It's saying the study included 571 patients. Let me look at each sense:

1. "connect closely and often incriminatingly" - No, that doesn't fit
2. "engage as a participant" - This could work, as the patients are participants in the study
3. "have as a necessary feature" - This could work too, as the study must have these patients
4. "require as useful, just, or proper" - No, doesn't fit
5. "contain as a part" - Yes, this fits. The study contains 571 patients as part of it
6. "occupy or engage the interest of" - No, not really
7. "make complex or intricate or complicated" - No, that doesn't fit

Looking at senses 2, 3, and 5:
- Sense 2 is "engage as a participant" - the patients are participants
- Sense 3 is "have as a necessary feature" - the study has these patients as a feature
- Sense 5 is "contain as a part" - the study contains these patients

Sense 5 seems most natural. "A study involving 571 patients" means the study contains/includes 571 patients as a component. This is essentially "contain as a part."

The answer is 5.

Which numbered sense of "patient" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 <t>patients</t> with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=a person who requires medical care | examples=the number of emergency patients has grown rapidly
2. definition=the semantic role of an entity that is not the agent but is directly involved in or affected by the happening denoted by the verb in the clause

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the usage of "patients" in the given sentence.

The sentence reads: "...in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past."

Now let me examine each sense:

Sense 1: "a person who requires medical care" - This is a simple, direct definition of the word "patient" referring to people receiving medical treatment.

Sense 2: "the semantic role of an entity that is not the agent but is directly involved in or affected by the happening denoted by the verb in the clause" - This is a linguistic/grammatical definition referring to the semantic role (patient role in linguistics) - the entity that is acted upon or affected by an action.

In the sentence, "patients" refers to people who require medical care and are involved in a study comparing treatments for lung cancer. They are directly involved in being treated and studied.

The first sense is more straightforward and literal - these are people who need medical care (they have cancer and are receiving treatment).

The second sense is a more technical/linguistic definition about semantic roles.

Given the context and the straightforward nature of how the word is used (referring to real people receiving medical treatment), the answer should be sense 1.

Which numbered sense of "locally" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with <t>locally</t> advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=by a particular locality | examples=it was locally decided
2. definition=to a restricted area of the body | examples=apply this medicine topically

reasoning_content:
The sentence is about patients with "locally advanced or metastatic disease" in the context of lung cancer treatment.

Let me analyze what "locally" means in this context:

- Sense 1: "by a particular locality" - This would mean that the advancement was decided by a particular locality, which doesn't make sense in a medical context.

- Sense 2: "to a restricted area of the body" - This refers to cancer being restricted to a particular area of the body (locally advanced means the cancer has spread but is still confined to a local area of the body, as opposed to metastatic which means it has spread throughout the body).

In medical terminology, "locally advanced cancer" is a standard term meaning the cancer has spread beyond the initial tumor site but is still confined to a local/regional area of the body. This clearly aligns with sense 2, which refers to "a restricted area of the body."

The answer is 2.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally <t>advanced</t> or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=farther along in physical or mental development | examples=the child's skeletal age was classified as `advanced'
2. definition=comparatively late in a course of development | examples=the illness had reached an advanced stage
3. definition=ahead of the times | examples=the advanced teaching methods
4. definition=at a higher level in training or knowledge or skill | examples=an advanced degree
5. definition=ahead in development; complex or intricate | examples=advanced technology
6. definition=far along in time | examples=a man of advanced age
7. definition=(of societies) highly developed especially in technology or industry | examples=advanced societies
8. definition=situated ahead or going before | examples=an advance party

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and find which sense of "advanced" is being used.

The sentence is: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past."

In this context, "advanced" is used to describe the stage or severity of cancer disease. The sentence mentions "locally advanced or metastatic disease" - this is describing the progression level of the cancer.

Let me check each sense:

1. "farther along in physical or mental development" - Not really about disease progression
2. "comparatively late in a course of development" - This fits! It's describing the disease as being at a late stage in its development/progression
3. "ahead of the times" - No, not about modern methods
4. "at a higher level in training or knowledge or skill" - No, not about training
5. "ahead in development; complex or intricate" - Not really about complexity here
6. "far along in time" - Not about time, but about progression
7. "(of societies) highly developed especially in technology or industry" - Not about society
8. "situated ahead or going before" - No, not spatial

The best fit is sense 2: "comparatively late in a course of development" - which refers to how the cancer has progressed through its course of development/stages.

Which numbered sense of "past" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the <t>past</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=the time that has elapsed | examples=forget the past
2. definition=a earlier period in someone's life (especially one that they have reason to keep secret) | examples=reporters dug into the candidate's past
3. definition=a verb tense that expresses actions or states in the past

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the given senses of "past."

The sentence reads: "...who had received chemotherapy in the <t>past</t>."

Let me examine each sense:

1. "the time that has elapsed" - example: "forget the past" - This refers to the general concept of time that has gone by, a period of time.

2. "a earlier period in someone's life (especially one that they have reason to keep secret)" - example: "reporters dug into the candidate's past" - This refers to someone's personal history or background.

3. "a verb tense that expresses actions or states in the past" - This is about grammar.

In the sentence, "in the past" is being used to indicate a time period - specifically, the patients "had received chemotherapy in the past" means they received it at some earlier time. This is referring to "the time that has elapsed" or a general time period before now.

This matches sense 1: "the time that has elapsed" with the example "forget the past."

The answer is 1.

Which numbered sense of "compare" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Alimta was also <t>compared</t> with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=examine and note the similarities or differences of | examples=John compared his haircut to his friend's
2. definition=be comparable | examples=This car does not compare with our line of Mercedes
3. definition=consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous | examples=We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans
4. definition=to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past."

The verb "compared" is used with "was also compared with gemcitabine." This is examining and noting the similarities or differences between Alimta and gemcitabine in a clinical study.

Let me check each sense:

1. "examine and note the similarities or differences of" - This fits. The study is comparing Alimta with gemcitabine to examine their similarities or differences in treating lung cancer.

2. "be comparable" - This would be more like "This car does not compare with our line of Mercedes" - it's saying something is or isn't of comparable quality. This doesn't fit the context.

3. "consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous" - This could potentially fit, but it's more about describing something as similar rather than examining differences/similarities.

4. "to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb" - This is a grammatical sense and doesn't apply here.

The correct answer is sense 1, as the sentence is describing a clinical study where Alimta was examined and compared with gemcitabine to note their similarities or differences in effectiveness.

The sentence is: "Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer <t>medicine</t>), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past."

In this context, "medicine" refers to a substance or drug used to treat disease. Gemcitabine is described as an "anticancer medicine," meaning it's a medicinal substance used to treat cancer.

Let me check each sense:

1. "the branches of medical science that deal with nonsurgical techniques" - This refers to fields/areas of study, not applicable here.

2. "(medicine) something that treats or prevents or alleviates the symptoms of disease" - This fits perfectly. Gemcitabine is a drug/substance that treats cancer (alleviates the disease).

3. "the learned profession that is mastered by graduate training in a medical school..." - This refers to the profession of medicine, not applicable here.

4. "punishment for one's actions" - This is a metaphorical use meaning consequences/punishment, not applicable here.

The correct answer is sense 2, as "medicine" in this sentence refers to a pharmaceutical substance used to treat disease (cancer in this case).

The sentence is: "Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a <t>study</t> involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past."

In this context, "study" refers to a research study - a clinical trial involving 1,725 patients. This is a systematic investigation or research project conducted to gather data and findings.

Let me look at the senses:
1. a detailed critical inspection - this could fit, but it's more general
2. applying the mind to learning and understanding a subject - this is about personal learning

Which numbered sense of "involve" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study <t>involving</t> 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=connect closely and often incriminatingly | examples=This new ruling affects your business
2. definition=engage as a participant | examples=Don't involve me in your family affairs!
3. definition=have as a necessary feature | examples=This decision involves many changes
4. definition=require as useful, just, or proper | examples=It takes nerve to do what she did
5. definition=contain as a part | examples=Dinner at Joe's always involves at least six courses
6. definition=occupy or engage the interest of | examples=His story completely involved me during the entire afternoon
7. definition=make complex or intricate or complicated | examples=The situation was rather involved

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study <t>involving</t> 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past."

The word "involving" is used here to describe a study that includes 1,725 patients. It means the study includes or contains these patients as a necessary part.

Let me match this to the senses:

1. "connect closely and often incriminatingly" - No, that's not the meaning here
2. "engage as a participant" - This could be close, but "involve me in your family affairs" suggests being drawn into something negative or problematic
3. "have as a necessary feature" - This fits! A study involving 1,725 patients means the study has these patients as a necessary feature
4. "require as useful, just, or proper" - No, that's not it
5. "contain as a part" - This also fits well. The study contains 1,725 patients as a part
6. "occupy or engage the interest of" - No, that's about interest/attention
7. "make complex or intricate or complicated" - No, that's not relevant

Looking at senses 3 and 5:
- Sense 3: "have as a necessary feature" with example "This decision involves many changes"
- Sense 5: "contain as a part" with example "Dinner at Joe's always involves at least six courses"

Both could work, but sense 5 seems more directly applicable. The study contains 1,725 patients as a part, similar to how dinner contains courses as parts. This is the most straightforward meaning of "involving" in this context.

Actually, I think sense 3 is also very applicable - the study has the participation of 1,725 patients as a necessary feature.

Between 3 and 5, I think 5 is the best fit because it's about what is contained or included, which is what "involving" means here - the study involves (includes) 1,725 patients.

Which numbered sense of "patient" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 <t>patients</t> who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past.

Senses:
1. definition=a person who requires medical care | examples=the number of emergency patients has grown rapidly
2. definition=the semantic role of an entity that is not the agent but is directly involved in or affected by the happening denoted by the verb in the clause

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the two senses of "patient":

Sentence: "Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past."

Sense 1: "a person who requires medical care" - This is the typical definition of a patient, someone receiving medical treatment.

Sense 2: "the semantic role of an entity that is not the agent but is directly involved in or affected by the happening denoted by the verb in the clause" - This is a grammatical/linguistic definition referring to the patient role in sentence structure.

In the given sentence, "patients" refers to 1,725 people who are involved in a study about cancer treatment. They "had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer" - these are actual people receiving or being considered for medical care/treatment.

This is clearly using Sense 1, as it refers to actual people requiring/receiving medical care, not the grammatical semantic role.
