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

Sentence: One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by <t>Congress</t> last year, a law that has been a rallying cry for conservative activists nationwide.

Senses:
1. definition=the legislature of the United States government
2. definition=a meeting of elected or appointed representatives
3. definition=a national legislative assembly
4. definition=the act of sexual procreation between a man and a woman; the man's penis is inserted into the woman's vagina and excited until orgasm and ejaculation occur

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

The sentence reads: "One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by Congress last year, a law that has been a rallying cry for conservative activists nationwide."

In this context, "Congress" refers to the legislative body of the United States that passed a healthcare law. The sentence is clearly talking about the legislative branch of the U.S. government.

Let me check each sense:

1. "the legislature of the United States government" - This fits perfectly. Congress is the U.S. legislature that passed the healthcare law.

2. "a meeting of elected or appointed representatives" - While Congress does consist of elected representatives, in this context it's not referring to a specific meeting, but rather to the institution itself.

3. "a national legislative assembly" - This could also fit since Congress is a national legislative assembly, but it's more specifically the legislature of the United States rather than just any national legislative assembly.

4. "the act of sexual procreation..." - This is clearly not the meaning here.

The most specific and accurate answer is sense 1, which explicitly identifies Congress as "the legislature of the United States government." This is the primary meaning when referring to the U.S. Congress in a political context.

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

The sentence reads: "One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by Congress last year, a law that has been a rallying cry for conservative activists nationwide."

The context here is referring to "last year" - meaning the year immediately preceding the current time when this was written. It's referring to a 365 (or 366) day period.

Let me check each definition:

1. "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days" - This fits "last year" perfectly. It's referring to the previous calendar year.

2. "a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity" - This would be something like "school year" or "fiscal year." That's not what's meant here.

3. "the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun" - This is an astronomical definition. Not applicable.

4. "a body of students who graduate together" - This would be a class year. Not applicable.

The correct answer is 1.

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

Sentence: One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by Congress last year, a <t>law</t> that has been a rallying cry for conservative activists nationwide.

Senses:
1. definition=the collection of rules imposed by authority | examples=civilization presupposes respect for the law
2. definition=legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity | examples=there is a law against kidnapping
3. definition=a rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature and essential to or binding upon human society
4. definition=a generalization that describes recurring facts or events in nature | examples=the laws of thermodynamics
5. definition=the branch of philosophy concerned with the law and the principles that lead courts to make the decisions they do
6. definition=the learned profession that is mastered by graduate study in a law school and that is responsible for the judicial system | examples=he studied law at Yale
7. definition=the force of policemen and officers | examples=the law came looking for him

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

"One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by Congress last year, a law that has been a rallying cry for conservative activists nationwide."

In this context, "law" refers to the healthcare overhaul that was "passed by Congress." This is a specific piece of legislation - a legal document that sets forth rules.

Let me review the definitions:

1. "the collection of rules imposed by authority" - This is too general and refers to law as a system
2. "legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity" - This matches! The healthcare overhaul is a specific legal document/piece of legislation passed by Congress
3. "a rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature" - This is about natural law
4. "a generalization that describes recurring facts or events in nature" - This is about scientific laws
5. "the branch of philosophy concerned with the law" - This is about legal philosophy
6. "the learned profession mastered by graduate study in a law school" - This is about the legal profession
7. "the force of policemen and officers" - This is about law enforcement

The healthcare overhaul passed by Congress is a specific legal document/statute, so sense 2 is the correct answer.

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

Sentence: One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by Congress last year, a law that has been a <t>rallying cry</t> for conservative activists nationwide.

Senses:
1. definition=a slogan used to rally support for a cause | examples=a cry to arms
2. definition=a yell intended to rally a group of soldiers in battle

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

The sentence is: "One of the cases at issue was a suit brought by 26 states challenging the sweeping healthcare overhaul passed by Congress last year, a law that has been a <t>rallying cry</t> for conservative activists nationwide."

Let me examine each sense:

1. "a slogan used to rally support for a cause" - This refers to using the phrase/concept to gather support for a movement or cause. In the sentence, the healthcare law has been a "rallying cry" for conservative activists, meaning it's been used as a focal point to unite and motivate conservative activists in their opposition or activism.

2. "a yell intended to rally a group of soldiers in battle" - This is specifically about a literal yell or shout used in battle to coordinate soldiers.

In the context of the sentence, the healthcare law is being used as something that motivates and unites conservative activists around a cause (opposition to the law). This is metaphorically using something as a "rallying cry" - a symbol or slogan that galvanizes support for a cause, not literally a battle cry.

This clearly matches sense 1 - "a slogan used to rally support for a cause."

The answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The <t>justices</t> agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released.

Senses:
1. definition=the quality of being just or fair
2. definition=judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments
3. definition=a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice
4. definition=the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws (including the enforcement of all civil rights legislation); created in 1870

reasoning_content:
The sentence uses "justices" which is the plural of "justice." Let me look at the context:

"The <t>justices</t> agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5-hour argument is expected in March..."

This is referring to judges who are part of a court (likely the Supreme Court based on the context of "the court's decision"). The word "justices" here refers to the individual judges/public officials who are authorized to decide cases in a court.

Let me check each sense:
1. "the quality of being just or fair" - This doesn't fit. We're not talking about a quality or characteristic.
2. "judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments" - This is about judgment/decisions, not the people making them.
3. "a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice" - This perfectly fits! Justices ARE public officials authorized to decide cases.
4. "the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws" - This refers to the Department of Justice, not individual judges.

The answer is 3.

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

Sentence: The justices agreed to hear the <t>suit</t>; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released.

Senses:
1. definition=a set of garments (usually including a jacket and trousers or skirt) for outerwear all of the same fabric and color | examples=they buried him in his best suit
2. definition=a comprehensive term for any proceeding in a court of law whereby an individual seeks a legal remedy | examples=the family brought suit against the landlord
3. definition=(slang) a businessman dressed in a business suit | examples=all the suits care about is the bottom line
4. definition=a man's courting of a woman; seeking the affections of a woman (usually with the hope of marriage) | examples=its was a brief and intense courtship
5. definition=a petition or appeal made to a person of superior status or rank
6. definition=playing card in any of four sets of 13 cards in a pack; each set has its own symbol and color | examples=a flush is five cards in the same suit

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

"The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5-hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race..."

The context indicates:
- Justices (court officials) agreeing to hear the suit
- There will be a legal argument in March
- The outcome will affect the presidential race
- This is clearly a legal/court matter

This is referring to a legal proceeding in a court. The justices are hearing a case, there's going to be an argument before the court, and the decision will have legal/political consequences.

Looking at the senses:
1. Garments - No, this is not about clothing
2. A proceeding in a court of law whereby an individual seeks a legal remedy - YES, this matches perfectly
3. A businessman in a suit - No, not about a person
4. Courting of a woman - No, not romantic
5. A petition to a superior - Possibly, but the legal proceeding sense is more specific and accurate
6. Playing card - No, not about cards

The answer is clearly sense 2.

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

Sentence: The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - <t>hour</t> argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released.

Senses:
1. definition=a period of time equal to 1/24th of a day | examples=the job will take more than an hour
2. definition=clock time | examples=the hour is getting late
3. definition=a special and memorable period | examples=it was their finest hour
4. definition=distance measured by the time taken to cover it | examples=we live an hour from the airport

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

The sentence reads: "...a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March..."

The phrase "5.5-hour argument" is describing the length or duration of the argument. The number 5.5 indicates how many hours the argument will last.

Let me check each sense:

1. "a period of time equal to 1/24th of a day" - This definition describes hour as a unit of time. In the sentence, "5.5-hour argument" means an argument that lasts 5.5 hours, which is describing a period of time. This fits this definition.

2. "clock time" - This would be referring to what time it is on a clock (like 3 o'clock). The sentence is not referring to clock time.

3. "a special and memorable period" - This refers to a significant moment in time (like "their finest hour"). The sentence doesn't seem to be using it this way.

4. "distance measured by the time taken to cover it" - This would be like "an hour away" meaning a distance. The sentence is not using it this way.

The correct answer is sense 1, as "5.5-hour argument" describes a duration/period of time equal to 5.5 twenty-fourths of a day.

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

Sentence: The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour <t>argument</t> is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released.

Senses:
1. definition=a fact or assertion offered as evidence that something is true | examples=it was a strong argument that his hypothesis was true
2. definition=a contentious speech act; a dispute where there is strong disagreement | examples=they were involved in a violent argument
3. definition=a discussion in which reasons are advanced for and against some proposition or proposal | examples=the argument over foreign aid goes on and on
4. definition=a summary of the subject or plot of a literary work or play or movie | examples=the editor added the argument to the poem
5. definition=(computer science) a reference or value that is passed to a function, procedure, subroutine, command, or program
6. definition=a variable in a logical or mathematical expression whose value determines the dependent variable; if f(x)=y, x is the independent variable
7. definition=a course of reasoning aimed at demonstrating a truth or falsehood; the methodical process of logical reasoning | examples=I can't follow your line of reasoning

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

"The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released."

The context is about a Supreme Court case (referring to "the justices" and "the suit"). The "5.5-hour argument" refers to oral arguments presented before the court - a formal presentation where lawyers argue their case to the justices.

Let me check each sense:

1. "a fact or assertion offered as evidence that something is true" - This is about evidence/proof, not quite fitting
2. "a contentious speech act; a dispute where there is strong disagreement" - This is about a quarrel/fight, not the formal legal argument
3. "a discussion in which reasons are advanced for and against some proposition or proposal" - This could fit, but it's not quite the formal legal proceeding sense
4. "a summary of the subject or plot of a literary work" - Not applicable
5. "computer science" - Not applicable
6. "a variable in a logical or mathematical expression" - Not applicable
7. "a course of reasoning aimed at demonstrating a truth or falsehood; the methodical process of logical reasoning" - This fits well - oral arguments in court involve a methodical process of logical reasoning presented to the court

Actually, looking more carefully, sense 7 seems most accurate. The "argument" in a legal context refers to the formal presentation of reasoning by lawyers before the court. This is about the methodical process of presenting reasoning to demonstrate why the court should rule a certain way.

The answer is 7.

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

Sentence: The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in <t>March</t>, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released.

6. definition=genre of music written for marching | examples=Sousa wrote the best marches
7. definition=a degree granted for the successful completion of advanced study of architecture

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

The sentence reads: "The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in <t>March</t>, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race..."

Looking at the context:
- "in March" - this is referring to a time period
- It's capitalized as "March"
- It comes after "in" which is a preposition typically used with months

Let me review the senses:
1. the month following February and preceding April - This fits! "March" is a month.
2. the act of marching; walking with regular steps - This doesn't fit the context
3. a steady advance - This doesn't fit
4. a procession of people walking together - This doesn't fit
5. district consisting of the area on either side of a border - This doesn't fit
6. genre of music written for marching - This doesn't fit
7. a degree granted for architecture - This doesn't fit

The answer is clearly 1, as "March" here refers to the month of March (between February and April) when the Supreme Court argument is expected to occur.

3. definition=people who are believed to belong to the same genetic stock | examples=some biologists doubt that there are important genetic differences between races of human beings
4. definition=(biology) a taxonomic group that is a division of a species; usually arises as a consequence of geographical isolation within a species
5. definition=the flow of air that is driven backwards by an aircraft propeller
6. definition=a canal for a current of water

reasoning_content:
The sentence is talking about "the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released."

This is clearly referring to a competition for the presidency - the race to win the 2012 presidential election.

Looking at the senses:
1. definition=any competition | examples=the race for the presidency - This matches!
2. definition=a contest of speed | examples=the race is to the swift - This is more specific to speed contests
3. definition=people who are believed to belong to the same genetic stock - Not relevant
4. definition=(biology) a taxonomic group that is a division of a species - Not relevant
5. definition=the flow of air that is driven backwards by an aircraft propeller - Not relevant
6. definition=a canal for a current of water - Not relevant

The answer is 1, as the example even says "the race for the presidency" which directly matches the usage in the sentence.

8. definition=in baseball; a batter's attempt to hit a pitched ball | examples=he took a vicious cut at the ball
9. definition=a square dance figure; a pair of dancers join hands and dance around a point between them

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

The sentence states: "the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's decision is released."

The phrase "in full swing" is an idiomatic expression meaning that something is in active progress, operating at full capacity or intensity.

Let me look at the definitions:

1. "a state of steady vigorous action that is characteristic of an activity" with example "the party went with a swing" - This matches! "In full swing" describes when an activity is in a state of steady, vigorous action.

2. mechanical device for playtime - No

3. sweeping blow or stroke - No

4. changing location by moving back and forth - No

5. style of jazz from 1930s - No

6. jaunty rhythm in music - No

7. golf swing - No

8. baseball swing - No

9. square dance figure - No

The answer is clearly **1** because "in full swing" means the presidential race will be in a state of steady, vigorous action/activity.

Sentence: The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the <t>court</t>'s decision is released.

Senses:
1. definition=an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business
2. definition=a room in which a lawcourt sits | examples=television cameras were admitted in the courtroom
3. definition=the sovereign and his advisers who are the governing power of a state
4. definition=a specially marked horizontal area within which a game is played | examples=players had to reserve a court in advance
5. definition=Australian woman tennis player who won many major championships (born in 1947)
6. definition=the family and retinue of a sovereign or prince
7. definition=a hotel for motorists; provides direct access from rooms to parking area
8. definition=a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws
9. definition=the residence of a sovereign or nobleman | examples=the king will visit the duke's court
10. definition=an area wholly or partly surrounded by walls or buildings | examples=the house was built around an inner court
11. definition=respectful deference | examples=pay court to the emperor

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

The sentence is: "The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the <t>court</t>'s decision is released."

Context clues:
- "justices" - indicates judges/judicial context
- "hear the suit" - legal proceedings
- "argument" - judicial argument
- "court's decision" - referring to the body that makes legal decisions

This is clearly referring to an institution/body of judges that conducts judicial business.

Let me compare the relevant definitions:
1. "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business" - This fits well. The court is the assembly of justices/judges that conducts judicial business.

8. "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws" - This also could fit, as it describes the court as a tribunal.

Both 1 and 8 are about judicial courts. The main difference is:
- Definition 1 emphasizes "an assembly" of judges
- Definition 8 emphasizes "a tribunal" presided over by judges

Given the context mentioning "justices" (plural) and the institution that hears cases and makes decisions, definition 1 seems most appropriate as it explicitly mentions "an assembly (including one or more judges)."

Actually, looking more carefully, both could work, but definition 1 is more general and foundational - it's the assembly of judges that conducts judicial business. Definition 8 is more specific about a tribunal.

I think the answer is 1.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of making up your mind about something | examples=the burden of decision was his
2. definition=a position or opinion or judgment reached after consideration | examples=a decision unfavorable to the opposition
3. definition=(boxing) a victory won on points when no knockout has occurred | examples=had little trouble in taking a unanimous decision over his opponent
4. definition=the outcome of a game or contest | examples=the team dropped three decisions in a row
5. definition=the trait of resoluteness as evidenced by firmness of character or purpose | examples=a man of unusual decisiveness

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

The sentence is: "The justices agreed to hear the suit; indeed, a landmark 5.5 - hour argument is expected in March, and the outcome is likely to further roil the 2012 presidential race, which will be in full swing by the time the court's <t>decision</t> is released."

This is talking about a Supreme Court decision - specifically the outcome/ruling that the court will release regarding the suit.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "the act of making up your mind about something" - This is about the process of deciding, not the result itself. This doesn't fit because we're talking about the actual decision/ruling, not the act of deciding.

2. "a position or opinion or judgment reached after consideration" - This fits well. The court's decision is a judgment or position reached after consideration of the case. This could be it.

3. "a victory won on points when no knockout has occurred" - This is boxing-specific. Not applicable here.

4. "the outcome of a game or contest" - While this could fit broadly (a court case is in some sense a contest), this seems too narrowly sports-focused.

5. "the trait of resoluteness as evidenced by firmness of character or purpose" - This is about a character trait, not relevant here.

Sense 2 is the best fit. The court's decision is a judgment or ruling reached after considering the case arguments. The example "a decision unfavorable to the opposition" also shows how a decision can be a judgment on a matter.

The answer is 2.

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

Sentence: The lawyer who will stand before the <t>court</t> and argue that the law should be thrown out is likely to be Paul Clement, who served as U.S. solicitor general during the George W. Bush administration.

Senses:
1. definition=an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business
2. definition=a room in which a lawcourt sits | examples=television cameras were admitted in the courtroom
3. definition=the sovereign and his advisers who are the governing power of a state
4. definition=a specially marked horizontal area within which a game is played | examples=players had to reserve a court in advance

10. definition=an area wholly or partly surrounded by walls or buildings | examples=the house was built around an inner court
11. definition=respectful deference | examples=pay court to the emperor

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

The sentence is: "The lawyer who will stand before the <t>court</t> and argue that the law should be thrown out is likely to be Paul Clement, who served as U.S. solicitor general during the George W. Bush administration."

The key context is:
- A lawyer standing before the court
- Arguing that the law should be thrown out
- This is clearly a legal/judicial context
- A solicitor general is a legal position

Now let me examine each sense:

1. An assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business - This fits! A lawyer stands before an assembly of judges to argue cases.

2. A room in which a lawcourt sits - This is about the physical room, but the context is about the judicial body/assembly, not the room itself.

3. The sovereign and his advisers - Not relevant to a legal trial context.

4. A specially marked area for games - Not relevant.

5. An Australian woman tennis player - Not relevant.

6. Family and retinue of a sovereign - Not relevant.

7. A hotel for motorists - Not relevant.

8. A tribunal presided over by a magistrate or judges - This also fits! This is similar to #1 but specifically mentions "tribunal" and describes the judicial function.

9. Residence of a sovereign - Not relevant.

10. An area surrounded by walls/buildings - Not relevant.

11. Respectful deference - Not relevant.

Between 1 and 8, both are about judicial assemblies. However, sense 1 emphasizes it as "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business" while sense 8 emphasizes it as "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws."

The most common and standard definition when referring to "standing before the court" in a legal argument context would be sense 1 - an assembly of judges to conduct judicial business. This is the most direct match for how "court" is used when referring to the judicial body before whom lawyers argue.
Definitions 1 and 8 are quite similar, but 1 is the more fundamental and general sense of a judicial body, so that's the best fit here.

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

Sentence: The lawyer who will stand before the court and argue that the <t>law</t> should be thrown out is likely to be Paul Clement, who served as U.S. solicitor general during the George W. Bush administration.

Senses:
1. definition=the collection of rules imposed by authority | examples=civilization presupposes respect for the law
2. definition=legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity | examples=there is a law against kidnapping
3. definition=a rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature and essential to or binding upon human society
4. definition=a generalization that describes recurring facts or events in nature | examples=the laws of thermodynamics
5. definition=the branch of philosophy concerned with the law and the principles that lead courts to make the decisions they do
6. definition=the learned profession that is mastered by graduate study in a law school and that is responsible for the judicial system | examples=he studied law at Yale
7. definition=the force of policemen and officers | examples=the law came looking for him

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

The sentence is: "The lawyer who will stand before the court and argue that the <t>law</t> should be thrown out is likely to be Paul Clement, who served as U.S. solicitor general during the George W. Bush administration."

Context: A lawyer is arguing that "the law" should be thrown out. This is referring to a specific piece of legislation or a specific legal rule/statute that the lawyer believes should be invalidated by the court.

Let me evaluate each sense:

1. "the collection of rules imposed by authority" - This is too broad; it's referring to the general concept of law itself
2. "legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity" - This could work. A "law" that should be "thrown out" (declared unconstitutional or invalid) would be a specific legal document or statute
3. "a rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature" - No, this is referring to natural law
4. "a generalization that describes recurring facts or events in nature" - No, this is about scientific laws
5. "the branch of philosophy concerned with the law" - No, this doesn't fit
6. "the learned profession that is mastered by graduate study" - No, this is about the profession of law
7. "the force of policemen and officers" - No, this doesn't fit

The most appropriate sense is #2 - a legal document (statute or law) that can be challenged and "thrown out" by the court. This is referring to a specific enacted law or statute.

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

Sentence: Clement's law firm, Bancroft PLLC, was one of almost two dozen firms that helped sponsor the annual <t>dinner</t> of the Federalist Society, a longstanding group dedicated to advocating conservative legal principles.

Senses:
1. definition=the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday | examples=dinner will be at 8
2. definition=a party of people assembled to have dinner together | examples=guests should never be late to a dinner party

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

The sentence reads: "Clement's law firm, Bancroft PLLC, was one of almost two dozen firms that helped sponsor the annual <t>dinner</t> of the Federalist Society, a longstanding group dedicated to advocating conservative legal principles."

Let me examine each sense:

1. "the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday" - This refers to the meal itself.

2. "a party of people assembled to have dinner together" - This refers to a social event/gathering of people.

In the sentence, they're talking about sponsoring "the annual dinner of the Federalist Society." The context is that law firms are sponsoring this event. This suggests it's not just referring to the meal itself, but rather to a formal event/gathering where people come together.

The phrase "sponsor the annual dinner" suggests this is an event (a party/gathering), not just a meal. When you sponsor a dinner in this formal context, you're sponsoring an event, not just food.

This fits sense 2: "a party of people assembled to have dinner together" - it's describing a social/formal event.

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

Sentence: Another firm that sponsored the <t>dinner</t>, Jones Day, represents one of the trade associations that challenged the law, the National Federation of Independent Business.

Senses:
1. definition=the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday | examples=dinner will be at 8
2. definition=a party of people assembled to have dinner together | examples=guests should never be late to a dinner party

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "Another firm that sponsored the <t>dinner</t>, Jones Day, represents one of the trade associations that challenged the law, the National Federation of Independent Business."

In this context, "dinner" refers to an event - specifically a formal gathering or party where people come together to dine. The firm "Jones Day" sponsored "the dinner," which suggests it's referring to a formal dinner event/party rather than just a meal.

Looking at the two senses:
1. "the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday" - This is about the meal itself
2. "a party of people assembled to have dinner together" - This is about an event/gathering of people

Given that the sentence talks about sponsoring "the dinner," it's more likely referring to a formal dinner event (a party/gathering) rather than just a meal. Companies sponsor dinner events/parties, not just meals.

This matches sense 2: "a party of people assembled to have dinner together"

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

Sentence: Another firm that sponsored the dinner, Jones Day, represents one of the trade associations that challenged the <t>law</t>, the National Federation of Independent Business.

Senses:
1. definition=the collection of rules imposed by authority | examples=civilization presupposes respect for the law
2. definition=legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity | examples=there is a law against kidnapping
3. definition=a rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature and essential to or binding upon human society

6. definition=the learned profession that is mastered by graduate study in a law school and that is responsible for the judicial system | examples=he studied law at Yale
7. definition=the force of policemen and officers | examples=the law came looking for him

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

"Another firm that sponsored the dinner, Jones Day, represents one of the trade associations that challenged the law, the National Federation of Independent Business."

In this context, the trade association "challenged the law." This means they challenged some rule or rules that were imposed by authority. Looking at the context, they challenged a specific law - not the entire legal profession or the police force or a general principle of nature.

Let me examine each sense:

1. "the collection of rules imposed by authority" - This could fit, as they challenged rules imposed by authority
2. "legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity" - This seems more specific to a single law/statute
3. "a rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature" - This doesn't fit the context
4. "a generalization that describes recurring facts or events in nature" - This doesn't fit
5. "the branch of philosophy concerned with the law" - This doesn't fit
6. "the learned profession" - This doesn't fit
7. "the force of policemen and officers" - This doesn't fit

Looking more carefully at senses 1 and 2:
- Sense 1 is about "the collection of rules" - more general
- Sense 2 is about "a legal document setting forth rules governing a particular kind of activity" - more specific to one law

The sentence suggests they challenged "the law" (singular), which seems to point to a specific legal document or statute rather than the entire collection of rules. This would be sense 2.

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

Sentence: Another <t>sponsor</t> was pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc, which has an enormous financial stake in the outcome of the litigation.

Senses:
1. definition=someone who supports or champions something
2. definition=an advocate who presents a person (as for an award or a degree or an introduction etc.)

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

The sentence: "Another sponsor was pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc, which has an enormous financial stake in the outcome of the litigation."

Let me look at each sense:

1. "someone who supports or champions something" - This would mean Pfizer is supporting or championing something (presumably the litigation or one side of it).

2. "an advocate who presents a person (as for an award or a degree or an introduction etc.)" - This would mean Pfizer is presenting a person for some purpose.

In the context of litigation, Pfizer has a financial stake in the outcome. They are acting as a "sponsor" in the sense that they are financially supporting or backing one side of the litigation. They are providing financial support, which means they are "supporting or championing" something - in this case, likely one side of the legal case.

The second sense is specifically about presenting a person (as for an award, degree, introduction, etc.), which doesn't apply here. The sentence is not about Pfizer presenting a person.

Therefore, the correct sense is **1** - "someone who supports or champions something."

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

Sentence: Another sponsor was pharmaceutical <t>giant</t> Pfizer Inc, which has an enormous financial stake in the outcome of the litigation.

Senses:
1. definition=any creature of exceptional size
2. definition=a person of exceptional importance and reputation
3. definition=an unusually large enterprise | examples=Walton built a retail giant
4. definition=a very large person; impressive in size or qualities
5. definition=someone or something that is abnormally large and powerful
6. definition=an imaginary figure of superhuman size and strength; appears in folklore and fairy tales
7. definition=a very bright star of large diameter and low density (relative to the Sun)

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and each sense of "giant":

Sentence: "Another sponsor was pharmaceutical <t>giant</t> Pfizer Inc, which has an enormous financial stake in the outcome of the litigation."

In this context, "pharmaceutical giant" refers to Pfizer as being a very large and important company in the pharmaceutical industry. It's not referring to:
- A creature of exceptional size (sense 1)
- A person of exceptional importance (sense 2)
- Someone abnormally large and powerful (sense 5)
- An imaginary superhuman figure (sense 6)
- A star (sense 7)

Looking at sense 3: "an unusually large enterprise | examples=Walton built a retail giant"
Looking at sense 4: "a very large person; impressive in size or qualities"

The key phrase is "pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc" - Pfizer is being described as a giant in the context of being an enormous/very large enterprise (corporation). This directly matches sense 3, which is "an unusually large enterprise" with the example "Walton built a retail giant."

The answer is 3.

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

Sentence: Another sponsor was pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc, which has an enormous financial <t>stake</t> in the outcome of the litigation.

Senses:
1. definition=(law) a right or legal share of something; a financial involvement with something | examples=they have interests all over the world
2. definition=a pole or stake set up to mark something (as the start or end of a race track) | examples=a pair of posts marked the goal
3. definition=instrument of execution consisting of a vertical post that a victim is tied to for burning
4. definition=the money risked on a gamble
5. definition=a strong wooden or metal post with a point at one end so it can be driven into the ground

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the senses of "stake":

Sentence: "Another sponsor was pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc, which has an enormous financial <t>stake</t> in the outcome of the litigation."

The sentence is talking about Pfizer having a "financial stake" in litigation. This clearly means they have a financial involvement or legal share in the outcome.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "a right or legal share of something; a financial involvement with something" - This matches perfectly. The example "they have interests all over the world" also aligns with this usage.

2. "a pole or stake set up to mark something" - This is a physical marker, doesn't fit.

3. "instrument of execution consisting of a vertical post" - This is clearly not what's meant here.

4. "the money risked on a gamble" - While this involves money, it's specifically about gambling/wagering, not about having a financial involvement in litigation.

5. "a strong wooden or metal post with a point at one end" - This is a physical object, doesn't fit.

The correct answer is sense 1, as it explicitly mentions "a financial involvement with something" which is exactly what "stake" means in this context.

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

Sentence: The <t>dinner</t> was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's conference over the case.

Senses:
1. definition=the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday | examples=dinner will be at 8
2. definition=a party of people assembled to have dinner together | examples=guests should never be late to a dinner party

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The <t>dinner</t> was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's conference over the case."

The sentence is talking about a dinner that "was held at a Washington hotel." This suggests a gathering or event where people come together for dinner.

Let me look at the two senses:

1. "the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday" - This is about the meal itself as food.

2. "a party of people assembled to have dinner together" - This is about the gathering/event of people coming together to have dinner.

In the context of the sentence, "the dinner was held at a Washington hotel" - this is describing an event that was held (hosted) at a location. If it were sense 1, it would more naturally be phrased as "dinner was served at..." or "dinner took place at..." But "a dinner was held" typically refers to a formal event/gathering of people, not just the meal itself.

This matches sense 2 better - "a party of people assembled to have dinner together."

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

Sentence: The dinner was held at a <t>Washington</t> hotel hours after the court's conference over the case.

Senses:
1. definition=the capital of the United States in the District of Columbia and a tourist mecca; George Washington commissioned Charles L'Enfant to lay out the city in 1791
2. definition=a state in northwestern United States on the Pacific
3. definition=the federal government of the United States
4. definition=1st President of the United States; commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution (1732-1799)
5. definition=United States educator who was born a slave but became educated and founded a college at Tuskegee in Alabama (1856-1915)

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's conference over the case."

The key phrase is "Washington hotel" - this is referring to a hotel located in Washington. Since it's just referred to as "Washington hotel" without any additional context, and the sentence mentions a court conference (which would likely be a federal court), this is most likely referring to Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States.

Let me check the senses:
1. Washington, D.C. - the capital of the United States
2. Washington state - a state in northwestern United States
3. Federal government of the United States
4. George Washington - the 1st President
5. Booker T. Washington - an educator

Since the sentence refers to "a Washington hotel" as a physical location where a dinner was held, it must be referring to a place. This could be either sense 1 (Washington D.C.) or sense 2 (Washington state).

Given that the context mentions "the court's conference" and it's more likely that a notable federal court case would be heard in Washington D.C. (the capital where federal courts are located), sense 1 seems most likely.

The answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The dinner was held at a Washington hotel <t>hours</t> after the court's conference over the case.

Senses:
1. definition=a period of time equal to 1/24th of a day | examples=the job will take more than an hour
2. definition=clock time | examples=the hour is getting late
3. definition=a special and memorable period | examples=it was their finest hour
4. definition=distance measured by the time taken to cover it | examples=we live an hour from the airport

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's conference over the case."

In this context, "hours" is being used to indicate a duration of time - specifically, some period of time passed after the court's conference. The dinner occurred multiple hours (a period of time measured in hours) after the conference.

Let me check each sense:
1. "a period of time equal to 1/24th of a day" - This matches. The sentence uses "hours" to describe a duration or period of time that passed between two events.
2. "clock time" - This doesn't fit. It's not referring to what time by the clock it is.
3. "a special and memorable period" - This doesn't fit. There's nothing special or memorable about the period.
4. "distance measured by the time taken to cover it" - This doesn't fit. We're not measuring distance here.

The answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the <t>court</t>'s conference over the case.

Senses:
1. definition=an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business
2. definition=a room in which a lawcourt sits | examples=television cameras were admitted in the courtroom
3. definition=the sovereign and his advisers who are the governing power of a state
4. definition=a specially marked horizontal area within which a game is played | examples=players had to reserve a court in advance
5. definition=Australian woman tennis player who won many major championships (born in 1947)
6. definition=the family and retinue of a sovereign or prince
7. definition=a hotel for motorists; provides direct access from rooms to parking area
8. definition=a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws
9. definition=the residence of a sovereign or nobleman | examples=the king will visit the duke's court
10. definition=an area wholly or partly surrounded by walls or buildings | examples=the house was built around an inner court
11. definition=respectful deference | examples=pay court to the emperor

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's conference over the case."

The key context clues are:
- "conference over the case" - this is about a legal/judicial matter
- The court is holding a conference about a case
- This is clearly a judicial/legal context

Let me review the definitions:
1. "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business" - This fits! A court conducting judicial business would hold a conference over a case.
2. "a room in which a lawcourt sits" - This is the physical room, but the sentence talks about the court holding a conference, which is the institution
3. "the sovereign and his advisers" - Not about law
4. "a specially marked horizontal area within which a game is played" - About sports, not law
5. "Australian woman tennis player" - A person's name, not relevant
6. "the family and retinue of a sovereign or prince" - Not about law
7. "a hotel for motorists" - Not relevant
8. "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws" - This also fits! It's about the judicial body
9. "the residence of a sovereign or nobleman" - Not about law
10. "an area wholly or partly surrounded by walls or buildings" - Not about law
11. "respectful deference" - Not about law

Between 1 and 8, both could work. Let me think about the difference:
- Sense 1: "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business"
- Sense 8: "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws"

The phrase "court's conference over the case" uses "court" as the institution/body that conducts judicial business. Both 1 and 8 are about this, but sense 8 is more specific about it being a tribunal that administers justice according to laws. Sense 1 is more general about an assembly.
The context of "conference over the case" points most directly to sense 1—an assembly conducting judicial business—as the best fit for how "court" is being used here.

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

Sentence: The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's <t>conference</t> over the case.

Senses:
1. definition=a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda)
2. definition=an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members
3. definition=a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's <t>conference</t> over the case."

Looking at the three sense definitions:

1. "a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda)" - This describes a formal meeting that's been planned in advance for discussion/exchange of information.

2. "an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members" - This is about sports leagues, which doesn't apply here.

3. "a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic" - This is about a discussion with participants on a serious topic.

In the sentence, the context is "the court's conference over the case." This is referring to a meeting held by the court to discuss/consult about the case.

Sense 1 emphasizes it's "prearranged" and involves "consultation or exchange of information or discussion," which fits well with a court meeting about a case.

Sense 3 also could fit, as it's a discussion with agreed topic.

However, in legal context, when a court holds a "conference," it typically refers to a formal meeting or consultation. Sense 1 seems to be the best fit because it emphasizes the prearranged formal nature and consultation aspect, which is how courts use the term "conference" (like a pre-trial conference).

The answer is 1.

18. definition=(printing) the receptacle in which a compositor has his type, which is divided into compartments for the different letters, spaces, or numbers | examples=for English, a compositor will ordinarily have two such cases, the upper case containing the capitals and the lower case containing the small letters
19. definition=bed linen consisting of a cover for a pillow | examples=the burglar carried his loot in a pillowcase
20. definition=a glass container used to store and display items in a shop or museum or home

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The dinner was held at a Washington hotel hours after the court's conference over the <t>case</t>."

The context is:
- A court's conference
- A legal/judicial setting (court)
- The conference is "over" (concerning/about) the case

In this context, "case" refers to a legal matter or proceeding that the court is addressing. Let me look at the definitions:

1. An occurrence of something - doesn't fit
2. A special set of circumstances - could fit but seems too general
3. "a comprehensive term for any proceeding in a court of law whereby an individual seeks a legal remedy" - This fits perfectly! It's about a court proceeding.
4. The actual state of things - doesn't fit
5. A portable container - doesn't fit
6. A person requiring professional services - doesn't fit
7. A person subjected to experimental procedures - doesn't fit
8. "a problem requiring investigation" - This could work, and "Perry Mason solved the case" is about solving a legal case
9. A statement of facts and reasons - doesn't fit the context
10. The quantity contained in a case - doesn't fit
11. Grammatical terms (nouns, pronouns, adjectives) - doesn't fit
12. A temporary state of mind - doesn't fit
13. A person of specified kind - doesn't fit
14. Type style - doesn't fit
15. Enveloping structure - doesn't fit
16. Housing or covering - doesn't fit
17. Frame around door/window - doesn't fit
18. Printing receptacle - doesn't fit
19. Bed linen - doesn't fit
20. Glass container - doesn't fit

The best fit is definition 3 or 8. Given that this is specifically about a "court's conference," definition 3 (a comprehensive term for any proceeding in a court of law) is the most appropriate.

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

Sentence: In <t>attendance</t> was, among others, Mitch McConnell, the Senate's top Republican and an avowed opponent of the healthcare law.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of being present (at a meeting or event etc.)
2. definition=the frequency with which a person is present | examples=a student's attendance is an important factor in her grade
3. definition=the number of people that are present | examples=attendance was up by 50 per cent

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

The sentence is: "In <t>attendance</t> was, among others, Mitch McConnell, the Senate's top Republican and an avowed opponent of the healthcare law."

Let me look at each sense:

1. "the act of being present (at a meeting or event etc.)" - This would refer to the act of being present.

2. "the frequency with which a person is present" - This refers to how often someone is present over time.

3. "the number of people that are present" - This refers to a count of people present.

In the sentence "In attendance was, among others, Mitch McConnell..." - this is saying that Mitch McConnell was present (along with others). The phrase "in attendance" means "present at the event."

This is describing the act or state of being present at an event. It's not about the frequency of attendance over time (sense 2), and it's not about counting total numbers of people (sense 3).

So this is sense 1: "the act of being present (at a meeting or event etc.)"

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

Sentence: In attendance was, among others, Mitch McConnell, the <t>Senate</t>'s top Republican and an avowed opponent of the healthcare law.

Senses:
1. definition=assembly possessing high legislative powers
2. definition=the upper house of the United States Congress

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze this sentence and the two definitions provided.

The sentence reads: "In attendance was, among others, Mitch McConnell, the <t>Senate</t>'s top Republican and an avowed opponent of the healthcare law."

Mitch McConnell is a U.S. politician who serves in the Senate. He is described as "the Senate's top Republican," which is referring to his leadership position in the Senate.

Now let's look at the two definitions:
1. "assembly possessing high legislative powers" - This is a general definition that could apply to various legislative bodies, not specifically the U.S. Senate.
2. "the upper house of the United States Congress" - This is specifically referring to the U.S. Senate.

In this context, the sentence is clearly referring to the U.S. Senate, as Mitch McConnell is a member of the U.S. Senate and his position as "top Republican" refers to his leadership role in that body.

Therefore, the correct sense is 2.

1. definition=a contestant that you are matched against
2. definition=someone who offers opposition

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

The sentence is: "In attendance was, among others, Mitch McConnell, the Senate's top Republican and an avowed opponent of the healthcare law."

Here, Mitch McConnell is described as an "avowed opponent of the healthcare law." This means he is someone who openly opposes the healthcare law.

Now let me look at the two senses:
1. "a contestant that you are matched against" - This would refer to someone you're competing against in a contest or competition
2. "someone who offers opposition" - This would refer to someone who opposes something

In this context, Mitch McConnell is described as opposing the healthcare law. He's not necessarily a contestant in a match against someone, but rather someone who opposes/is against the healthcare law.

Sense 2 ("someone who offers opposition") is the correct interpretation here. He is offering opposition to the healthcare law.

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

Sentence: The featured <t>guests</t> at the dinner? Scalia and Thomas.

Senses:
1. definition=a visitor to whom hospitality is extended
2. definition=United States journalist (born in England) noted for his syndicated homey verse (1881-1959)
3. definition=a customer of a hotel or restaurant etc.
4. definition=(computer science) any computer that is hooked up to a computer network

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The featured <t>guests</t> at the dinner? Scalia and Thomas."

The sentence is talking about featured guests at a dinner event. Scalia and Thomas are people who were invited to and attended a dinner.

Let me look at each sense:

1. "a visitor to whom hospitality is extended" - This describes people who are invited to an event and receive hospitality. This fits the context of being "featured guests at the dinner."

2. "United States journalist (born in England) noted for his syndicated homey verse (1881-1959)" - This is referring to a specific person (Edgar Guest), not what "guests" means in this context.

3. "a customer of a hotel or restaurant etc." - While guests at a dinner could be in a restaurant, they're not primarily there as "customers" in the sense of paying customers. This is more specific than the general meaning.

4. "(computer science) any computer that is hooked up to a computer network" - This doesn't apply at all to people at a dinner.

The most appropriate sense is #1: "a visitor to whom hospitality is extended." Scalia and Thomas are visitors/attendees at a dinner event where hospitality is being extended to them.

The answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The featured guests at the <t>dinner</t>? Scalia and Thomas.

Senses:
1. definition=the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday | examples=dinner will be at 8
2. definition=a party of people assembled to have dinner together | examples=guests should never be late to a dinner party

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "The featured guests at the <t>dinner</t>? Scalia and Thomas."

The sentence is talking about guests at a dinner event. The word "dinner" here refers to a gathering or event where people come together to dine.

Let me look at the two senses:

1. "the main meal of the day served in the evening or at midday" - This is referring to the meal itself
2. "a party of people assembled to have dinner together" - This is referring to a social gathering/event with people

In the sentence, "the featured guests at the dinner" - this is clearly referring to a social event/gathering where people are assembled, not just the meal itself. The focus is on the guests who are attending the dinner event.

This matches sense 2: "a party of people assembled to have dinner together"

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

Sentence: It's nothing new: The two <t>justices</t> have been attending Federalist Society events for years.

Senses:
1. definition=the quality of being just or fair
2. definition=judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments
3. definition=a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice
4. definition=the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws (including the enforcement of all civil rights legislation); created in 1870

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "It's nothing new: The two <t>justices</t> have been attending Federalist Society events for years."

The word "justices" is plural here. Let me look at each sense:

1. "the quality of being just or fair" - This is an abstract concept, not something that would be plural or would attend events
2. "judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments" - This is also abstract and wouldn't attend events
3. "a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice" - This makes sense. Justices are judges. Multiple justices (judges) could attend events together
4. "the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws..." - This is referring to the Department of Justice, which wouldn't be plural "justices"

The Federalist Society is a real organization focused on law and jurisprudence, and it makes sense that justices (judges) would attend their events.

The correct answer is 3.

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

Sentence: It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society <t>events</t> for years.

Senses:
1. definition=something that happens at a given place and time
2. definition=a special set of circumstances | examples=in that event, the first possibility is excluded
3. definition=a phenomenon located at a single point in space-time; the fundamental observational entity in relativity theory
4. definition=a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon | examples=the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise

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

Sentence: "It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society events for years."

Let me consider each definition:

1. "something that happens at a given place and time" - This fits the context. The "events" here are gatherings/activities organized by the Federalist Society that happen at specific times and places.

2. "a special set of circumstances | examples=in that event, the first possibility is excluded" - This is more like a conditional usage ("in that event" means "in that case" or "if that happens"), which doesn't fit here.

3. "a phenomenon located at a single point in space-time; the fundamental observational entity in relativity theory" - This is a physics/relativity theory term, which doesn't apply to Federalist Society gatherings.

4. "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon" - This refers to a consequence or effect, which is not what's meant here.

The sentence is clearly referring to "events" as scheduled activities or gatherings - things that happen at specific places and times. This matches sense 1.

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

Sentence: It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society events for <t>years</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=a late time of life | examples=old age is not for sissies
2. definition=a prolonged period of time | examples=we've known each other for ages
3. definition=the time during which someone's life continues | examples=the monarch's last days
4. definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old
5. definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year
6. definition=the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days
7. definition=a body of students who graduate together | examples=the class of '97

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society events for <t>years</t>."

The key phrase is "for years" which indicates a prolonged or extended period of time. The sentence is saying they've been attending these events for a long time.

Let me check each sense:
1. "a late time of life" - No, this doesn't fit. "Years" isn't referring to old age.
2. "a prolonged period of time" - Yes, this fits perfectly. "For years" means "for a prolonged period of time"
3. "the time during which someone's life continues" - No, this is too general/permanent
4. "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days" - This could technically apply, but the phrase "for years" (plural) suggests multiple years, and the context suggests an unspecified prolonged period rather than referring to specific calendar years
5. "a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year" - No, this is about school years or similar specific types of years
6. "the period of time that it takes for a planet to make a complete revolution" - No, not relevant
7. "a body of students who graduate together" - No, not relevant

The best fit is sense 2: "a prolonged period of time" with the example "we've known each other for ages" - which is parallel to "for years" in the given sentence.

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

Sentence: And it's nothing that runs afoul of ethics <t>rules</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior | examples=it was his rule to take a walk before breakfast
2. definition=something regarded as a normative example | examples=the convention of not naming the main character
3. definition=prescribed guide for conduct or action
4. definition=(linguistics) a rule describing (or prescribing) a linguistic practice
5. definition=a basic generalization that is accepted as true and that can be used as a basis for reasoning or conduct | examples=their principles of composition characterized all their works
6. definition=the duration of a monarch's or government's power | examples=during the rule of Elizabeth
7. definition=dominance or power through legal authority | examples=France held undisputed dominion over vast areas of Africa
8. definition=directions that define the way a game or sport is to be conducted | examples=he knew the rules of chess
9. definition=any one of a systematic body of regulations defining the way of life of members of a religious order | examples=the rule of St. Dominic
10. definition=a rule or law concerning a natural phenomenon or the function of a complex system | examples=the principle of the conservation of mass
11. definition=(mathematics) a standard procedure for solving a class of mathematical problems | examples=he determined the upper bound with Descartes' rule of signs
12. definition=measuring stick consisting of a strip of wood or metal or plastic with a straight edge that is used for drawing straight lines and measuring lengths

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "And it's nothing that runs afoul of ethics <t>rules</t>."

The sentence is referring to "ethics rules" - rules that govern ethical conduct or ethical practices. It's saying that something doesn't violate ethical rules.

Let me go through the senses:

1. "a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior" - This could fit, as ethics rules are principles that govern behavior.

2. "something regarded as a normative example" - This doesn't fit well.

3. "prescribed guide for conduct or action" - This could fit, as ethics rules are guides for conduct.

4. "(linguistics) a rule describing a linguistic practice" - This is specifically about linguistics, doesn't fit.

5. "a basic generalization that is accepted as true and that can be used as a basis for reasoning or conduct" - This is more about principles/generalizations.

6. "the duration of a monarch's or government's power" - Doesn't fit at all.

7. "dominance or power through legal authority" - Doesn't fit.

8. "directions that define the way a game or sport is to be conducted" - This is specifically about games/sports.

9. "any one of a systematic body of regulations defining the way of life of members of a religious order" - This is specifically religious.

10. "a rule or law concerning a natural phenomenon or the function of a complex system" - This is about natural phenomena/systems.

11. "(mathematics) a standard procedure for solving a class of mathematical problems" - This is specifically mathematical.

12. "measuring stick consisting of a strip of wood or metal or plastic" - This is the physical object.

Looking at senses 1 and 3:
- Sense 1: "a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior"
- Sense 3: "prescribed guide for conduct or action"

"Ethics rules" are guidelines or regulations that govern ethical conduct.

Sense 3 fits best because ethics rules are explicitly prescribed—they're established standards meant to direct how people should act. While sense 1 captures the governing aspect, sense 3 more precisely describes rules as formal guides that are deliberately set down for conduct.

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

Sentence: In fact, <t>justices</t> are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal justices.

Senses:
1. definition=the quality of being just or fair
2. definition=judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments
3. definition=a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice
4. definition=the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws (including the enforcement of all civil rights legislation); created in 1870

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "In fact, <t>justices</t> are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal justices."

The word "justices" is being used here to refer to people - specifically, judges or judicial officers who work in courts. The sentence is talking about "justices" (plural) being exempt from a code of conduct, and it also mentions "lower federal justices" as a comparison.

Let me check each sense:

1. "the quality of being just or fair" - This would be a noun meaning a concept/quality, but "justices" is plural and referring to people. This doesn't fit.

2. "judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments" - This is about the process/act of judgment, but "justices" is referring to people, not a process. This doesn't fit.

3. "a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice" - This definition refers to a person who is a judicial officer/judge. "Justices" would be the plural form, and the sentence is clearly using it to refer to people who are judicial officials. This fits perfectly.

4. "the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws" - This is referring to the Department of Justice (an institution), but "justices" is plural and referring to people, not a department. This doesn't fit.

The answer is 3.

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

Sentence: In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the <t>actions</t> of lower federal justices.

Senses:
1. definition=something done (usually as opposed to something said) | examples=there were stories of murders and other unnatural actions
2. definition=the state of being active | examples=his sphere of activity
3. definition=a military engagement | examples=he saw action in Korea
4. definition=a process existing in or produced by nature (rather than by the intent of human beings) | examples=the action of natural forces
5. definition=the series of events that form a plot | examples=his novels always have a lot of action
6. definition=the trait of being active and energetic and forceful | examples=a man of action
7. definition=the operating part that transmits power to a mechanism | examples=the piano had a very stiff action
8. definition=a judicial proceeding brought by one party against another; one party prosecutes another for a wrong done or for protection of a right or for prevention of a wrong
9. definition=an act by a government body or supranational organization | examples=recent federal action undermined the segregationist position
10. definition=the most important or interesting work or activity in a specific area or field | examples=the action is no longer in technology stocks but in municipal bonds

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence: "In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the <t>actions</t> of lower federal justices."

The sentence is talking about a Code of Conduct that governs the actions (behaviors/conduct) of lower federal justices. It's referring to the things that these justices do - their conduct, behaviors, decisions, and conduct.

Let me look at the senses:

1. "something done (usually as opposed to something said)" - This seems like the right fit. The Code of Conduct governs what these justices do/don't do.

2. "the state of being active" - No, this is about the state of being active, not specific actions.

3. "a military engagement" - No, this is about military.

4. "a process existing in or produced by nature" - No, this is about natural processes.

5. "the series of events that form a plot" - No, this is about narrative/stories.

6. "the trait of being active and energetic and forceful" - No, this is about a character trait.

7. "the operating part that transmits power to a mechanism" - No, this is about mechanical parts.

8. "a judicial proceeding brought by one party against another" - This could fit as "actions" could refer to legal actions/lawsuits, but that's not the primary meaning in this context.

9. "an act by a government body or supranational organization" - This could fit, but the actions refer more broadly to conduct.

10. "the most important or interesting work or activity in a specific area or field" - No, not relevant here.

I think sense 1 is the most appropriate - "something done (usually as opposed to something said)". The Code of Conduct governs what the justices do.

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the tagged word "justices":

"In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal <t>justices</t>."

The word "justices" here refers to people - specifically, judges or public officials who work in the federal court system. The sentence is talking about "lower federal justices" - meaning lower-ranking judges in the federal court system.

Let me check each definition:

1. "the quality of being just or fair" - This is a noun referring to an abstract concept, not a person. This doesn't fit.

2. "judgment involved in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments" - This is also an abstract noun about the process of judgment, not a person. This doesn't fit.

3. "a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice" - This fits! A justice is a person, a public official (a judge) who decides cases in court. "Lower federal justices" would mean federal judges.

4. "the United States federal department responsible for enforcing federal laws..." - This refers to the Department of Justice, not to individual justices. This doesn't fit.

The answer is 3.

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

Sentence: If they were, they arguably fell under <t>code</t>'s Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

Senses:
1. definition=a set of rules or principles or laws (especially written ones)
2. definition=a coding system used for transmitting messages requiring brevity or secrecy
3. definition=(computer science) the symbolic arrangement of data or instructions in a computer program or the set of such instructions

reasoning_content:
Let me analyze the sentence and the definition of "code" as it's used here.

The sentence states: "If they were, they arguably fell under <t>code</t>'s Canon 4C, which states, 'A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event.'"

The context shows that "code" is being used to refer to a set of rules or principles that include specific canons. Canon 4C is described as a rule that "states" something about how judges should conduct themselves. This is clearly a set of rules or principles, specifically written ones.

Looking at the three senses:
1. "a set of rules or principles or laws (especially written ones)" - This matches perfectly. The code contains written rules (the Canon 4C).
2. "a coding system used for transmitting messages requiring brevity or secrecy" - This doesn't fit the context.
3. "(computer science) the symbolic arrangement of data or instructions in a computer program or the set of such instructions" - This is about computer programming, which is not relevant here.

The answer is clearly sense 1.

Senses:
1. definition=a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice
2. definition=an authority who is able to estimate worth or quality

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

The sentence states: "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

This is referring to a "judge" in the context of a legal/professional code of conduct (Canon 4C), discussing what a judge can and cannot do at events. The context clearly indicates this is referring to a judicial officer - a public official who works in the court system.

Sense 1 definition: "a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice" - This fits perfectly. The sentence is discussing the conduct rules for judges who are court officials.

Sense 2 definition: "an authority who is able to estimate worth or quality" - This doesn't fit. The sentence is not about someone evaluating or assessing the worth or quality of something. It's about a court judge's behavior at fund-raising events.

The correct answer is 1.

Sentence: If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising <t>events</t> of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

4. definition=a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon | examples=the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise

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

The sentence states: "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

Here, "events" refers to fund-raising events - these are organized gatherings or occasions where something happens at a specific place and time. They are things that occur in the real world.

Let me check each sense:

1. "something that happens at a given place and time" - This fits perfectly. Fund-raising events are things that happen at specific places and times. This is the most natural interpretation.

2. "a special set of circumstances | examples=in that event, the first possibility is excluded" - This is a conditional sense, like "in case that happens." This doesn't fit the usage here.

3. "a phenomenon located at a single point in space-time; the fundamental observational entity in relativity theory" - This is a technical physics term. Not applicable here.

4. "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon" - This refers to something caused by a prior cause. While fund-raising events might be caused by prior decisions, this is not the primary sense being used. The focus is not on causation here.

The answer is clearly sense 1 - "something that happens at a given place and time."

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

Sentence: If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other <t>organizations</t> although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

5. definition=an ordered manner; orderliness by virtue of being methodical and well organized | examples=his compulsive organization was not an endearing quality
6. definition=the activity or result of distributing or disposing persons or things properly or methodically | examples=his organization of the work force was very efficient
7. definition=the act of forming or establishing something | examples=the constitution of a PTA group last year

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

The sentence reads: "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other <t>organizations</t> although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

In this context, "organizations" refers to entities - specifically, law-related organizations and other organizations that hold fund-raising events. These are groups of people working together for a common purpose (in this case, law-related organizations).

Let me check each sense:

1. "a group of people who work together" - This fits! The organizations being referred to are entities made up of people working together for common purposes.

2. "an organized structure for arranging or classifying" - This doesn't fit the context.

3. "the persons (or committees or departments etc.) who make up a body for the purpose of administering something" - This is similar to sense 1 but more specific to administrative bodies. This could work, but sense 1 is more general and direct.

4. "the act of organizing a business or an activity related to a business" - This is about the process/act, not the entity itself.

5. "an ordered manner; orderliness" - This doesn't fit.

6. "the activity or result of distributing or disposing persons or things properly or methodically" - This is about the process/activity, not the entity.

7. "the act of forming or establishing something" - This is about the process, not the entity.

The correct answer is sense 1, which refers to organizations as groups of people who work together.

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

Sentence: If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the <t>judge</t> may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event."

Senses:
1. definition=a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice
2. definition=an authority who is able to estimate worth or quality

reasoning_content:
The sentence is discussing a judge in the context of fund-raising events and legal code Canon 4C. It talks about what a judge may or may not do at these events (not being a speaker, guest of honor, or featured on the program).

In this context, "judge" refers to a public official who works in the court system and is subject to ethical codes and regulations. This is clearly sense 1 - "a public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice."

Sense 2 would be something like "he is a good judge of character" or "she is a judge of fine art" - meaning someone with authority to estimate or evaluate worth or quality, not necessarily a legal official.

The answer is 1.
