reasoning_content: We are given: "the result is a generation of young people whose ignorance and intellectual incompetence is matched only by their good <t>opinion</t> of themselves." This refers to their own positive self-assessment or self-regard. It is a personal belief or judgment about themselves. The phrase "good opinion of themselves" means they think highly of themselves. That aligns with sense 1: "a personal belief or judgment that is not founded on proof or certainty." The synonyms include sentiment, persuasion, view, thought. The example "my opinion differs from yours" shows it's a personal view. Sense 6 is "a vague idea in which some confidence is placed" with synonyms impression, feeling, belief, notion. That could also fit, but "opinion" here is more of a judgment than a vague idea. Sense 1 is more precise: a personal belief or judgment. The context suggests it's their opinion of themselves, a judgment about their own worth. So sense_index 1 is best.

We are asked to choose the best sense for "whole" in the context: "The <t>whole</t> notion of 'creativity' in education was (and is) part and parcel of a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction..."

The word "whole" here modifies "notion". It means the entire notion, complete, or entire. Among the candidate senses:

Sense 1: "including all components without exception; being one unit or constituting the full amount or extent or duration; complete" with examples like "gave his whole attention". This fits perfectly: "the whole notion" means the entire notion.

Sense 2: about siblings, not relevant.

Sense 3: "not injured", not relevant.

Sense 4: "exhibiting or restored to vigorous good health", not relevant.

Sense 5: "acting together as a single undiversified whole" with synonyms "solid, unanimous". This could fit if the notion were undiversified, but it's more about completeness.

Thus sense 1 is the best.

The context discusses the concept of "creativity" in education, referring to it as a "notion" that is part of a romantic rebellion. The phrase "The whole notion of 'creativity' in education" indicates that "notion" here means a general concept or idea, not a vague impression or a fanciful whim. Sense 2 is "a general inclusive concept". Sense 1 is about a vague idea with confidence, but the context here is more about the concept of creativity as a whole. Sense 3 is odd or fanciful, which doesn't fit because the concept is widely held despite being criticized. Sense 4 is about sewing items, irrelevant. Therefore, the best sense is sense 2.

reasoning_content:
We need to choose the best sense for "education" in the context. The context discusses creativity in education, specifically in elementary schools. It talks about the notion of creativity in education as part of a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction. This is about the activities of educating, the system, and the process.

Candidate senses:
1. activities of educating or instructing; activities that impart knowledge or skill.
2. knowledge acquired by learning and instruction.
3. gradual process of acquiring knowledge.
4. profession of teaching.
5. result of good upbringing.
6. US federal department.

The context talks about "the whole notion of 'creativity' in education" and "a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction". This clearly refers to the activities and processes of educating, not just knowledge acquired or profession. The examples for sense 1 include "he received no formal education", which fits. But sense 3 is "the gradual process of acquiring knowledge" with example "education is a preparation for life". The context emphasizes the process and system of education, and the rebellion against disciplined instruction. I think sense 1 (activities of educating) is more appropriate because it's about the instructional activities. However, sense 3 also fits as process. But the phrase "in education" typically refers to the field or system of education. The provided examples: sense 1 "he received no formal education" – that's more about the activity, but "in education" could be ambiguous. The context: "The whole notion of 'creativity' in education" means within the educational system or process. I lean towards sense 1 because it explicitly includes "teaching, instruction, pedagogy". The sentence mentions "disciplined instruction" which is directly related. Sense 3 is more about the individual's process. The context is about what happens in schools. So sense 1 is best.

Thus answer: {"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content: We are given the target lemma "romantic" in the context of a discussion about creativity in education. The context describes a "romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction" and later "this romantic extravagance". The sense should be about being idealistic and unrealistic, not practical. That matches sense 3: "not sensible about practical matters; idealistic and unrealistic". The synonyms include "quixotic" and "wild-eyed". The example "a romantic disregard for money" fits the idea of disregarding practical discipline. Sense 1 is about the Romantic movement in arts, but the context is about education, not art. Sense 2 is about sexual love, which doesn't fit. So sense 3 is correct.

reasoning_content:
We are given a context: "The whole notion of 'creativity' in education was (and is) part and parcel of a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction..." The target word is "rebellion". Candidate senses: sense 1: refusal to accept some authority or code or convention (with example: each generation must have its own rebellion; his body was in rebellion against fatigue). Sense 2: organized opposition to authority; a conflict in which one faction tries to wrest control from another (synonyms: insurrection, revolt, rising, uprising).

In the context, it says "a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction". This is not an organized political uprising; it's more of a general refusal or resistance against a certain approach (disciplined instruction). It's a metaphorical rebellion against an educational philosophy. Sense 1 fits better because it is about "refusal to accept some authority or code or convention" - here, the convention of disciplined instruction. The example "each generation must have its own rebellion" aligns with this usage. Sense 2 implies a more organized, conflict-like situation, which doesn't match the context. So choose sense 1.

Thus, the answer is {"sense_index": 1}.

We are given the target word "disciplined" in context. The context is about a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction, which is seen as authoritarian and repressive. The sentence: "The whole notion of 'creativity' in education was (and is) part and parcel of a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction, which was (and is) regarded as 'authoritarian,' a repression and frustration of the latent talents..."

We need to choose between two senses:
1. disciplined%5:00:00:controlled:00 -> "obeying the rules"
2. disciplined%5:00:00:trained:00 -> "trained mentally or physically by instruction or exercise" with examples: "the beautiful coordination of his disciplined muscles; a disciplined mind"

In the context, "disciplined instruction" is contrasted with "creativity" and is seen as authoritarian, repression, frustration. It refers to instruction that is strict, orderly, following rules. The sense "obeying the rules" seems appropriate. The second sense is about being trained, which could also apply, but the context emphasizes the authoritarian aspect and rule-following. The phrase "disciplined instruction" likely means instruction that requires discipline, i.e., following rules and being controlled. The sense "controlled" (obeying rules) fits better. Also note that the word "disciplined" is used as an adjective modifying "instruction". So sense 1.

Thus, answer should be sense_index 1.{"sense_index": 1}

Sense 4 is computer science. The context clearly talks about education and teaching activities. So sense 2 is the best.

We are given a target lemma "authoritarian" in context. The context discusses a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction, which was regarded as "authoritarian", a repression and frustration of latent talents. The candidate senses are:

1. characteristic of an absolute ruler or absolute rule; having absolute sovereignty (synonyms: autocratic, dictatorial, despotic, tyrannic, tyrannical; examples: an authoritarian regime; autocratic government)
2. expecting unquestioning obedience (synonyms: dictatorial, overbearing; examples: the timid child of authoritarian parents; insufferably overbearing behavior toward the waiter)

The context is about education and parenting: "disciplined instruction" regarded as "authoritarian". This aligns more with sense 2: expecting unquestioning obedience, as it refers to a style of instruction that is strict and demands obedience. Sense 1 is more about political rule. The example for sense 2 includes "the timid child of authoritarian parents", which fits the context of parenting and education. Therefore, the best sense is sense 2.

Thus, the JSON output should be {"sense_index": 2}.

We are given the target lemma "repression" in context. The context discusses education, creativity, and disciplined instruction being regarded as "authoritarian, a repression and frustration of latent talents." The word is used in a general sense of holding back or suppressing something (talents, potential).

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=repression%1:26:00:: | definition=a state of forcible subjugation | examples=the long repression of Christian sects
   This sense refers to political or social subjugation of a group. The context is about education and children, not about subjugating a group. Not the best fit.

2. sense_key=repression%1:22:00:: | definition=(psychiatry) the classical defense mechanism that protects you from impulses or ideas that would cause anxiety by preventing them from becoming conscious
   This is a psychological term, specifically Freudian defense mechanism. The context mentions "repression and frustration of latent talents" which could be interpreted as psychological repression, but the broader context is about educational philosophy and discipline, not about individual psychological defense mechanisms. The word is used in a more general sense of suppressing or holding back.

3. sense_key=repression%1:04:00:: | definition=the act of repressing; control by holding down | examples=his goal was the repression of insolence
   This sense is about the act of repressing, controlling by holding down. It is a general sense. The context says "disciplined instruction... regarded as 'authoritarian,' a repression and frustration of the latent talents." This fits well: the act of repressing or holding down talents. The example "repression of insolence" is similar in structure.

Thus, sense 3 seems most appropriate. The context does not indicate a psychiatric defense mechanism or a state of forcible subjugation of a group. It is about the act of repressing creativity or talents.

Therefore, the answer should be {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content: We are given a sentence: "which was (and is) regarded as 'authoritarian,' a repression and frustration of the latent talents..." The target is "frustration". The context is about disciplined instruction being seen as authoritarian, repression, and frustration of children's latent talents. The frustration here is an act of hindering or thwarting the development of talents. Sense 2 is "an act of hindering someone's plans or efforts" with synonyms thwarting, foiling. That fits: the discipline is seen as an act that hinders the children's talents. Sense 1 is a feeling, but here it's not a feeling, it's something done to the talents. Sense 3 is also a feeling of annoyance, but again, the context is about repression and frustration of talents, not a feeling. So sense 2 is correct.

reasoning_content: We need to choose between sense 1 and sense 2. The context: "a repression and frustration of the latent talents and the wonderful, if as yet undefined, potentialities inherent in the souls of all our children." The word "latent" modifies "talents". The context is about potential talents that are not yet realized. This matches sense 1: "potentially existing but not presently evident or realized". Sense 2 is pathological (latent infection, latent diabetes) which does not fit the context of talents. So sense_index is 1.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "yet" in the context: "...the wonderful, if as <t>yet</t> undefined, potentialities..." The phrase "as yet" is a fixed expression meaning "up to now" or "so far". Sense 2 includes "as yet" as a synonym: "used in negative statement to describe a situation that has existed up to this point or up to the present time" with synonyms including "as yet". The example "the sun isn't up yet" matches usage. The context is negative? Actually it's "if as yet undefined" which implies that up to now they are undefined. So sense 2 is the best. Sense 1 also says "up to the present time" but it uses "I have yet to see" which is similar but the synonym list for sense 2 specifically includes "as yet". Also sense 1 is for "yet" alone, while here it's "as yet". The definition of sense 2 explicitly mentions "used in negative statement" - but the context here is not strictly negative; it's "if as yet undefined" which is a conditional. However, the phrase "as yet" is commonly used in negative or interrogative contexts, but also in affirmative with "as yet" meaning "so far". I think sense 2 is the most appropriate because it lists "as yet" as a synonym. So answer: {"sense_index": 2}.

reasoning_content: We need to choose between sense 1 and sense 2. The context: "the latent talents and the wonderful, if as yet undefined, potentialities inherent in the souls of all our children." The word "inherent" here means existing as an essential constituent or characteristic, something that is built-in or integral. The phrase "latent talents" and "potentialities" are described as inherent, meaning they are intrinsic to the children's souls. Sense 1: "existing as an essential constituent or characteristic" fits well. Sense 2: "in the nature of something though not readily apparent" also fits because these potentialities are latent and not yet apparent. However, the context emphasizes that these are essential characteristics, not just underlying but not apparent. The synonyms for sense 1 include "built-in, constitutional, inbuilt, integral" which match the idea of being part of the soul. Sense 2's synonyms "implicit in, underlying" also fit but the example "shortcomings inherent in our approach" suggests something that is a natural part. The phrase "inherent in the souls" suggests an essential quality. I think sense 1 is more precise because it emphasizes being an essential constituent. Also, the definition of sense 1 says "existing as an essential constituent or characteristic" which directly matches. Sense 2 says "in the nature of something though not readily apparent" which is also true but the "not readily apparent" is already covered by "latent" and "undefined". The word "inherent" itself is being used to mean that these potentialities are an integral part of the soul. So I'll choose sense 1.

We are given the target lemma "soul" in the context: "the latent talents and the wonderful, if as yet undefined, potentialities inherent in the <t>souls</t> of all our children."

The context discusses children's inner qualities, talents, potentialities inherent in their "souls". This refers to the immaterial part of a person, their inner being, not a person as an individual (sense 2), not deep emotion (sense 3), not an embodiment (sense 4), and not a musical genre (sense 5). So sense 1 is the best fit: "the immaterial part of a person; the actuating cause of an individual life" with synonym "psyche". It matches the idea of inherent potentialities in the soul.

Thus the answer is sense index 1.

reasoning_content:
We are asked to choose the best indexed sense for "children" in the given context. The context talks about American parents and elementary schools encouraging creativity in their children. The sentence: "But what do we mean, specifically, by 'creativity'? ... a romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction ... inherent in the souls of all our <t>children</t>." This clearly refers to young offspring, likely school-aged children.

Sense 1: a young person of either sex. Synonyms: kid, youngster, minor, etc. Examples: "she writes books for children; they're just kids" - fits.

Sense 2: a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age. Synonyms: kid. Examples: "they had three children; they were able to send their kids to college" - also plausible, but note that in the context, the children are being discussed in relation to elementary schools, implying they are young. However, sense 2 includes "of any age", so it could still fit. But the nuance is that they are being referred to as young people in the educational system, not just as offspring. The phrase "your children" often means your offspring, but the context emphasizes their youth and being in elementary school.

Sense 3: an immature childish person. That doesn't fit; it's derogatory and not appropriate.

Sense 4: a member of a clan or tribe. That doesn't fit.

Between sense 1 and sense 2, sense 1 is more specific to a young person. The context says "youngsters" and "children" in the sense of students. The definition of sense 1 is "a young person of either sex", which matches the context where they are in elementary school. Sense 2 emphasizes offspring, but it can be of any age, and the examples include college. However, the immediate context uses "children" as those being educated, and the phrase "your children" likely means your offspring, but the focus is on their youth. WordNet often distinguishes between "child" as a young person (sense 1) and "child" as offspring (sense 2). In many contexts, both could apply, but here the context explicitly mentions "elementary schools" and "youngsters", and the romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction is about children as learners. The sentence says "the souls of all our children" which could be interpreted as all young people. I think sense 1 is more precise because it highlights their age and status as young people, not just as offspring. The synonyms for sense 1 include "youngster" which is used in the text. Also, the text says "the youngsters' 'self-esteem'." So I lean towards sense 1.

Thus, the best sense index is 1.

Sense 2: an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained. Clearly, the context is about human parents and their relationship to their children in an educational context. Thus, sense 1 is the correct one. The output should be {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content:
We are given the target word "find" in context: "It is not surprising that parents find this romantic extravagance so attractive." The context is about parents finding something (the romantic extravagance) attractive. We need to select the best sense.

Candidate senses:
1. sense 1: "come upon, as if by accident; meet with" - synonyms: happen, chance, bump, encounter. Example: "We find this idea in Plato; I happened upon the most wonderful bakery not very far from here." This could fit, but it's more about accidental discovery.
2. sense 2: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" - synonyms: detect, observe, discover, notice. Example: "She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water." This is about detecting something.
3. sense 3: "come upon after searching; find the location of something that was missed or lost" - synonyms: regain. Example: "Did you find your glasses?" This is about locating a lost item, not fitting.
4. sense 4: "establish after a calculation, investigation, experiment, survey, or study" - synonyms: determine, find out, ascertain. Example: "find the product of two numbers". This is more analytical.
5. sense 5: "come to believe on the basis of emotion, intuitions, or indefinite grounds" - synonyms: feel. Example: "I feel that he doesn't like me; I find him to be obnoxious." This seems close: "I find him to be obnoxious" means I have an opinion or perception. The context: "parents find this romantic extravagance so attractive" – they have an opinion or perception of it as attractive. This sense uses "find" meaning "come to believe" or "feel" based on emotion/intuition. The word "attractive" is a perception or emotional response.
6. sense 6: "perceive or be contemporaneous with" - synonyms: witness, see. Example: "We found Republicans winning the offices" – that's about witnessing an event. Not exactly.
7. sense 7: "get something or somebody for a specific purpose" - synonyms: line up, get hold, come up. Example: "I found this gadget that will serve as a bottle opener." This is about obtaining something.
8. sense 8: "make a discovery, make a new finding" - synonyms: discover. Example: "Roentgen discovered X-rays" – scientific discovery.
9. sense 9: "make a discovery" – example: "She found that he had lied to her" – discovering a fact.
10. sense 10: "obtain through effort or management" – example: "She found the time and energy" – obtaining resources.
11. sense 11: "decide on and make a declaration about" – synonyms: rule, example: "find someone guilty" – judicial.
12. sense 12: "receive a specified treatment (abstract)" – synonyms: receive, get, obtain, incur. Example: "These aspects of civilization do not find expression" – receive expression.
13. sense 13: "perceive oneself to be in a certain condition or place" – example: "I found myself in a difficult situation" – self-perception.
14. sense 14: "get or find back; recover the use of" – synonyms: recover, retrieve, regain. Example: "She regained control of herself; She found her voice" – recovery.
15. sense 15: "succeed in reaching; arrive at" – example: "The arrow found its mark" – reaching target.
16. sense 16: "accept and make use of one's personality, abilities, and situation" – synonyms: find oneself. Example: "My son went to Berkeley to find himself" – self-discovery.

The context: "parents find this romantic extravagance so attractive." This means parents have the opinion or perception that it is attractive. It's not about finding a lost item (sense 3), not about detecting (sense 2), not about obtaining (sense 7 or 10), not about scientific discovery (sense 8), not about making a declaration (sense 11), not about receiving (sense 12), not about reaching (sense 15). It's about forming a belief based on emotion or intuition. The synonyms for sense 5 are "feel", and examples include "I find him to be obnoxious" – that is exactly the structure: "find [someone/something] [adjective]". Here, it's "find this romantic extravagance so attractive". So sense 5 is "come to believe on the basis of emotion, intuitions, or indefinite grounds." That fits perfectly.

Also, sense 6 is "perceive or be contemporaneous with" but that example is "We found Republicans winning the offices" which is more about witnessing an event. Sense 13 is about perceiving oneself in a condition, not perceiving something else. Sense 5 is the best.

Thus answer: sense 5.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "romantic" in the context. The context discusses a "romantic rebellion against disciplined instruction" and calls it "romantic extravagance". This is about an idealistic, unrealistic approach to education, not about Romanticism in arts or about sexual love. So sense 3: not sensible about practical matters; idealistic and unrealistic fits best.

reasoning_content:
We are asked to choose the single best indexed sense for the target word "so" in the given context. The sentence is: "It is not surprising that parents find this romantic extravagance <t>so</t> attractive."

We need to consider the meaning of "so" here. It is used as an adverb modifying "attractive". The phrase "so attractive" indicates a degree: parents find this extravagance very attractive. Among the candidate senses, sense 1 is "to a very great extent or degree" with example "the idea is so obvious; never been so happy". That fits perfectly. Sense 7 is similar but usually followed by 'that' to an extent or degree as expressed, like "he was so tired he could hardly stand". Here, "so attractive" does not have a following 'that' clause. It is just intensifying "attractive". So sense 1 is the best.

Other senses: sense 2 is "in a manner that facilitates" (so he could...), sense 3 is "in such a condition or manner" (they're happy and I hope they will remain so), sense 4 is "to a certain unspecified extent" (only so far), sense 5 is "in the same way; also", sense 6 is "in the way indicated" (hold the brush so), sense 8 is "subsequently or soon afterward", sense 9 is "introducing a logical conclusion", sense 10 is "in truth" (indeed). None of these fit.

Thus, the correct sense index is 1.

The sentence: "It is not surprising that parents find this romantic extravagance so attractive." The word "attractive" here means that parents are drawn to or find appealing this romantic extravagance. It is not about physical beauty (sense 1) or magnetic properties (sense 3). It is about having power to arouse interest, which matches sense 2: "having power to arouse interest" with examples like "an attractive opportunity". The context says parents find it attractive, meaning they are interested or drawn to it. So sense 2 is the best.

reasoning_content:
We are given a context where the target word is "same". The phrase is: "Fortunately, these <t>same</t> parents do want their children to get a decent education..." The context refers to parents who were previously mentioned as being attracted to romantic extravagance about creativity. The word "same" here refers to the identical parents, not just similar ones. It means "the same parents" as previously discussed. That matches sense 1: "same in identity". The definition says "same in identity" and examples like "the same man I saw yesterday". In the context, it's referencing the same parents that were attracted to romantic extravagance. So sense 1 is correct.

Sense 2 is about comparability in kind or quality, not identity. Sense 3 is about equal amount or value, not identity. Sense 4 is about unchanged in character, but here we are referring to the same individuals, not that they are unchanged. So the best is sense 1.

Thus, output should be {"sense_index": 1}.

Sense 2 is "have need of" which is more about needing something, but here it's a desire. Sense 3 is hunting/looking for. Sense 4 is wish/demand presence of, not appropriate. Sense 5 is lack. So sense 1 is correct.

We are given the target word "children" in context. The context discusses parents wanting their children to get a decent education. The sense that fits is "a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age". The sentence: "these same parents do want their children to get a decent education as traditionally understood". Here, "children" refers to the offspring of the parents, not just young persons in general. Also note that the context says "parents" and "their children", indicating familial relationship. Sense 2 is specifically about offspring. Sense 1 is about young persons generally (like "kid" meaning young person), but here it's specifically the parents' own children. So sense 2 is best.

Thus answer: {"sense_index": 2}
