Target lemma: coincidence
Target surface form: coincidence
Context:
If he was just a nut, no harm was done. But if he was the real thing, he could do something about Lolly. He felt very cunning, very proud of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot. "No offense intended ", he said gently. "But it's just that -- well, you know. The cops didn't suspect a thing, and I thought it was a <t>coincidence</t>. After all, I didn't know you, Pete.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=coincidence%1:11:00:: | definition=an event that might have been arranged although it was really accidental | synonyms=happenstance
2. sense_key=coincidence%1:07:02:: | definition=the quality of occupying the same position or area in space | examples=he waited for the coincidence of the target and the cross hairs

reasoning_content: We are given a context: "The cops didn't suspect a thing, and I thought it was a coincidence. After all, I didn't know you, Pete." The speaker is suggesting that the situation seemed like a chance occurrence, not planned. This aligns with sense 1: "an event that might have been arranged although it was really accidental". The other senses are about spatial or temporal coincidence, not relevant here. So sense_index is 1.

role: assistant

reasoning_content: We are given the target word "know" in context: "I didn't <t>know</t> you, Pete." The speaker is saying they did not know Pete (the person). This clearly indicates a lack of acquaintance with the person. Among the candidate senses, sense 4 is "be familiar or acquainted with a person or an object" with examples like "Do you know my sister?" This matches the context perfectly. The other senses like being aware of information (sense 1), knowing how (sense 2), etc. do not fit. So the correct sense index is 4.

reasoning_content:
We are given the context: "But if you say you managed it" The target word is "say". The context is a conversation where one person is saying "if you say you managed it". This seems like the sense of "say" meaning to state or express in words, or possibly to allege. Let's examine the candidate senses.

Sense 1: express in words (state, tell). Example: "He said that he wanted to marry her". This fits: "if you say you managed it" is expressing that you managed it.

Sense 2: report or maintain (allege, aver). Example: "He alleged that he was the victim of a crime". This is similar to sense 1 but more about asserting something possibly contentious. In the context, the speaker is acknowledging that the other person claims to have managed it. Could be either 1 or 2.

Sense 3: express a supposition (suppose). Example: "Let us say that he did not tell the truth". This is more hypothetical, like "let's say". In the context, it's "if you say you managed it", which is not a supposition but a condition based on what the other person says.

Sense 4: have or contain a certain wording (read). Not applicable.

Sense 5: give instructions (order, tell). Not applicable.

Sense 6: speak, pronounce in a certain way. Not applicable.

Sense 7: communicate nonverbally. Not applicable.

Sense 8: utter aloud. This is too general, but the context is about stating a claim.

Sense 9: state as one's opinion or judgement; declare. Example: "I say let's forget this whole business". This could fit if the speaker is declaring something, but in the context, it's the other person saying something.

Sense 10: recite or repeat a fixed text. Not applicable.

Sense 11: indicate. Example: "The clock says noon". Not applicable.

The most natural interpretation is that "you say you managed it" means "you state that you managed it". So sense 1 seems best. Sense 2 is also possible but sense 1 is more general and fits the examples. The context does not suggest an allegation or maintaining something against opposition; it's simply a statement.

Thus, the best sense is sense 1.

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
We are given the target surface form "managed" in context: "But if you say you <t>managed</t> it". The speaker is saying that if the person admits they orchestrated or caused something (likely with some negative connotation). The context suggests that "managed" here might imply doing something with some trickery or effort, possibly in a negative light. Let's examine the candidate senses.

1. sense 1: be successful; achieve a goal. Synonyms: pull off, bring off. That could fit: "you managed it" meaning you succeeded in doing it. But the context says "The stranger was hooked." The speaker is implying that if the person says they "managed it", that confirms something. There may be a sense of deception.

2. sense 2: be in charge of, act on, or dispose of. This is more like handling or dealing with something. Not really fitting.

3. sense 3: come to terms with; cope. That doesn't fit.

4. sense 4: watch and direct; oversee. Not fitting.

5. sense 5: achieve something by means of trickery or devious methods. Synonyms: wangle, finagle. This seems very plausible given the context: "The cops didn't suspect a thing" and the speaker says "you managed it" implying that the person may have done something sneaky. The stranger is "hooked", meaning intrigued or caught. This sense has a negative connotation of trickery.

6. sense 6: carry on or function. Not fitting.

7. sense 7: handle effectively (like wield). Not fitting.

The best fit is sense index 5. The sentence: "But if you say you managed it" – in the context of the conversation about cops not suspecting and possible coincidence, the implication is that the person did something deceptive. So sense 5 is appropriate.

The narrator is speaking to Pete, but the stranger is a third person. The stranger is someone the narrator doesn't know? The narrator says "I didn't know you, Pete. It could have been an accident." Then "But if you say you managed it 'The stranger was hooked.'" So the stranger is someone not acquainted with the narrator? Also "anyone who does not belong in the environment" might fit but the context doesn't indicate environmental alienation. More likely it's just someone not known. Sense 2: "an individual that one is not acquainted with" fits better. The stranger is clearly a person not known. So sense 2. Return {"sense_index": 2

reasoning_content: We need to determine the correct sense of "hooked" in the given context. The context: "The stranger was hooked. His eyes burned feverishly." This suggests that the stranger became captivated, addicted, or ensnared by something. The preceding conversation indicates the stranger is reacting to something Pete said. The phrase "hooked" here likely means being deeply interested or addicted, not physically hooked. Looking at the senses: sense 9 is "to cause (someone or oneself) to become dependent (on something, especially a narcotic drug)" with synonyms "addict". That fits: the stranger is "hooked" meaning addicted or captivated. Sense 11 is "entice and trap" with synonym "snare" - also possible but sense 9 specifically mentions becoming dependent, which aligns with "eyes burned feverishly" indicating an obsessive state. Sense 12 is sexual solicitation, not fitting. Others are physical or theft-related. So best sense is 9.

Sense 10 "feel hot or painful" could also apply, but "feverishly" suggests intensity of shine or glow.

The adverb "impatiently" suggests annoyance, but not necessarily complaining. The stranger is hooked, eyes burning feverishly, and says "Yes, yes" impatiently. This seems like a low voice, indistinct muttering due to impatience. Sense 1: talk indistinctly; usually in a low voice. Sense 2: make complaining remarks or noises under one's breath. The example for sense 2 is "she grumbles when she feels overworked" – grumbling. Here, the character is not complaining but expressing agreement impatiently. The word "impatiently" might align with a grumble but more likely just low voice. I think sense 1 is better. So answer {"sense_index": 1}.

The phrase "looked like an accident" means it appeared to be an accident. This matches sense 2: "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect" with synonyms appear, seem. The example "She seems to be sleeping" is similar. So sense_index=2.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "way" in the context: "I always work it that <t>way</t>". The speaker is explaining how he manages to make things look like accidents. The phrase "work it that way" means "do it in that manner" or "in that fashion". This aligns with sense 1: "how something is done or how it happens" (manner, mode, style, fashion). The synonyms and examples match: "her dignified manner; his rapid manner of talking". The context is about a method or manner of doing something. Sense 2 is about means/agency, but that's more about a means to an end, not exactly the same. Sense 1 is the most direct. So answer: {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content: We are given the sentence: "I always work it that way -- and always at a <t>time</t> when the customer has an alibi." The context is about a stranger who is explaining how he commits accidents, always at a time when the customer has an alibi. The word "time" here refers to a specific point or period when the customer is not present or has an alibi. It is not about a clock time (sense 7) but rather an occasion or moment. Sense 1 is "an instance or single occasion for some event" which fits: "always at a time when..." means an occasion. Sense 2 is about a resource, sense 3 indefinite period, sense 4 suitable moment (might be close, but "suitable" is implied, but not exactly), sense 5 continuum, sense 6 experience, sense 7 clock time, sense 8 fourth dimension, sense 9 rhythm, sense 10 prison term. The best is sense 1: "an instance or single occasion for some event". The example "this time he succeeded" matches. So sense_index: 1.

We are given the target lemma "have" with surface form "has" in the context: "Yes, yes ", he muttered impatiently. "Of course it looked like an accident. I always work it that way -- and always at a time when the customer <t>has</t> an alibi. Let me prove it, Phil."

We need to disambiguate the sense of "has" here. The customer has an alibi. The phrase "has an alibi" means that the customer possesses an alibi, i.e., has evidence or a statement that they were elsewhere. This is a possession sense. Among the candidate senses, sense 1 is "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense" with synonyms have got, hold, and examples including "She has $1,000 in the bank" and "He has got two beautiful daughters". Sense 4 is "have ownership or possession of" with synonyms own, possess. Both are similar, but sense 1 seems more general and includes abstract possession. The context says "has an alibi" - an alibi is an abstract thing (a claim or evidence). Sense 1 explicitly includes "either in a concrete or an abstract sense". Sense 4 is more about ownership, which typically applies to tangible objects. So sense 1 is more appropriate. Also, note that the phrase "has an alibi" is a common collocation meaning possessing an alibi. None of the other senses fit: it's not about experiencing (3), causing (5), consuming (6), relationship (7), organizing (8), having left (9), being confronted with (10), undergoing (11), suffering from (12), causing to do (13), receiving (14,15), achieving a point (17), giving birth (18), or sex (19). So the best sense is 1.

Return JSON with sense_index 1.

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content: We are given a sentence where a stranger is talking about making a murder look like an accident, and ensuring the customer has an alibi. The context suggests that the alibi is a false claim that the customer was elsewhere, thus not responsible for the crime. This aligns with sense 1: (law) a defense by an accused person purporting to show that he or she could not have committed the crime in question. Sense 2 is more about general excuses for behavior or failure, not necessarily a criminal defense. The context explicitly mentions crime and accident, so sense 1 is correct.

reasoning_content:
We are given the target lemma "let" in the context: "Let me prove it, Phil." The speaker is asking for permission or making a request to prove something. The phrase "Let me prove it" is a common expression meaning "allow me to prove it" or "give me the chance to prove it."

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. Sense 1: "make it possible through a specific action or lack of action for something to happen" - This could fit, but it's more general.
2. Sense 2: "actively cause something to happen" - This is about causing, not necessarily permission.
3. Sense 3: "consent to, give permission" - This directly matches "let me" as in "allow me." The example "I won't let the police search her basement" shows permission. This seems the best fit.
4. Sense 4: "cause to move; cause to be in a certain position or condition" - Not relevant.
5. Sense 5: "leave unchanged" - Not relevant.
6. Sense 6: "grant use or occupation of under a term of contract" - Not relevant.

Thus, sense 3 is the best. The JSON should be {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "prove" in the context. The context: "Let me prove it, Phil." The speaker is saying he can demonstrate or show something. The speaker is talking about making accidents look like accidents and having an alibi. He wants to prove it to Phil. This aligns with sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment" with synonyms demonstrate, establish, show. Also sense 3 is "provide evidence for". But sense 2 seems more direct: demonstrate or show. The context: "Let me prove it" meaning let me show you or demonstrate that I can do it. So sense 2 is best. Sense 1 is "be shown or be found to be" which is more about being proven, not actively proving. Sense 3 is about providing evidence, but sense 2 is about establishing validity. The character wants to demonstrate his method. So I'll choose sense index 2.

reasoning_content: We are given the sentence: "I <t>think</t> I can manage one more favor for you". The context shows the speaker saying this after stating they always work it that way. The speaker is expressing a belief or expectation that they can manage one more favor. This aligns most closely with sense 2: "expect, believe, or suppose" with synonyms like guess, suppose. The examples include "I thought to find her in a bad state" which is similar in structure. Sense 1 is "judge or regard; look upon; judge" which is more about opinion, but sense 2 explicitly includes "expect, believe, suppose". The speaker is saying "I think I can manage" meaning "I believe I can manage". Therefore, sense 2 is best.

The context clearly indicates eager expectation, which aligns with sense 3 (look forward to). Sense 1 is more about physically waiting in a line, but here it's about expecting something. Sense 2 is about delaying action, but here he is not holding off; he is waiting for a response. So sense 3 is best.

reasoning_content: We are given the context: "Haney swished the liquor in the bottom of his glass." The target word is "bottom". The sentence describes liquor in the bottom of a glass. The most appropriate sense is the lowest part of something, specifically the bottom of a glass. Among the candidate senses, sense 2 is "the lowest part of anything" with example "they started at the bottom of the hill". That fits well. Sense 1 is "the lower side of anything" which might also apply, but sense 2 more directly refers to the lowest part. The context mentions "the bottom of his glass" which is the lowest interior part. So sense 2 seems best. Other senses are unrelated (buttocks, baseball inning, riverbed, bottomland, cargo ship). Therefore, answer: {"sense_index": 2}.

Sense 1 is about a disorderly crowd, which doesn't fit. So answer sense_index 2.

reasoning_content:
We are given the target lemma "back" with surface form "backed" in context: "Tuesday's rout of a GOP congressional hopeful in a Mississippi district that hasn't <t>backed</t> a Democratic presidential candidate since Adlai Stevenson is another reminder..."

The context is about a congressional district that has not "backed" a Democratic presidential candidate since Adlai Stevenson. This means the district has not supported or endorsed a Democratic candidate for president. The verb "backed" here means to support or endorse.

Looking at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=back%2:41:00:: | definition=be behind; approve of | synonyms=endorse, indorse, plump for, plunk for, support | examples=He plumped for the Labor Party; I backed Kennedy in 1960
This matches the context: supporting a political candidate.

2. sense_key=back%2:38:00:: | definition=travel backward (not appropriate)

3. sense_key=back%2:41:01:: | definition=give support or one's approval to | synonyms=second, endorse, indorse | examples=I'll second that motion; I can't back this plan
This is very similar to sense 1, but sense 1 has "be behind; approve of" and includes "support" as a synonym. Both are plausible.

4. sense_key=back%2:38:01:: | definition=cause to travel backward (no)

5. sense_key=back%2:40:00:: | definition=support financial backing for (could be, but context doesn't specify financial)

6. sense_key=back%2:42:00:: | definition=be in back of (no)

7. sense_key=back%2:33:00:: | definition=place a bet on (no, not betting)

8. sense_key=back%2:30:03:: | definition=shift to a counterclockwise direction (no)

9. sense_key=back%2:30:00:: | definition=establish as valid or genuine (no)

10. sense_key=back%2:30:01:: | definition=strengthen by providing with a back or backing (no)

Between sense 1 and sense 3, both are about support. Sense 1 has "be behind; approve of" and "I backed Kennedy in 1960" which is exactly about a presidential candidate. Sense 3 also has "give support or one's approval" but the example "I can't back this plan" is more general. The context specifically mentions backing a presidential candidate, so sense 1 seems most fitting. Additionally, sense 1 has the synonym "support" and the example "I backed Kennedy in 1960" matches the context of backing a presidential candidate.

Thus, the best sense is sense 1 (index 1).

I need to output a JSON object with "sense_index". The instructions say "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}." but that was just an example; I should put the correct index. So {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content: We need to determine the correct sense of "Democratic" in the given context. The sentence mentions "a Mississippi district that hasn't backed a Democratic presidential candidate since Adlai Stevenson". This clearly refers to the Democratic Party, i.e., the political party. So sense 2: "belong to or relating to the Democratic Party" is the correct one. Sense 1 is about democracy in general, sense 3 is about popular appeal. The capital D in "Democratic" also hints at the party. Thus sense_index = 2.

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which sense of "candidate" fits the context. The context: "a Democratic presidential <t>candidate</t>" and later "different party's candidate for the White House". This clearly refers to a person running for public office (presidential candidate). Sense 1: "a politician who is running for public office" is exactly that. Sense 2 is broader: "someone who is considered for something (for an office or prize or honor etc.)" which could also apply, but the context specifically mentions "presidential candidate" and "candidate for the White House", which aligns with running for office. Also the synonyms for sense 1 are "campaigner, nominee" which fit. Sense 2 synonyms are "prospect", which is more general. So sense 1 is best.

Thus answer: {"sense_index": 1}

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
We are given a target word "reminder" in a context sentence. The context is about a political event (a rout of a GOP congressional hopeful in a Mississippi district) being a reminder that ticket splitting has been on the rise. The candidate senses are:

1. sense_key=reminder%1:10:00:: | definition=a message that helps you remember something | examples=he ignored his wife's reminders
2. sense_key=reminder%1:09:00:: | definition=an experience that causes you to remember something
3. sense_key=reminder%1:18:00:: | definition=someone who gives a warning so that a mistake can be avoided | synonyms=admonisher, monitor

The context says "is another reminder that ..." The reminder is not a message (like a note) nor a person giving a warning. It is an event (the rout) that causes you to remember something. So sense 2 fits best: "an experience that causes you to remember something." The rout is an experience/event that reminds us of the trend. Therefore, the best sense index is 2.

We need to output JSON with "sense_index" as the index number. So output: {"sense_index": 2}

We need to choose the best sense for "federal" in the given context. The sentence: "Tuesday's rout of a GOP congressional hopeful in a Mississippi district that hasn't backed a Democratic presidential candidate since Adlai Stevenson is another reminder that, at least at the <t>federal</t> level, political 'ticket splitting' has been on the rise over the past half century."

The phrase "at the federal level" contrasts with state or local levels. It refers to the national government of the United States, as distinct from state governments. Sense 1: "national; especially in reference to the government of the United States as distinct from that of its member units" with examples "the Federal Bureau of Investigation; federal courts" fits well. Sense 2: "of or relating to the central government of a federation" is similar but broader. Sense 3 refers to the Civil War and Union, not relevant here. Sense 4 is about a form of government with divided power, but the context is specifically about the national level as opposed to state level. Sense 1 seems most precise because it explicitly says "as distinct from that of its member units". The context mentions "federal level" contrasting with congressional district and state? Actually, it's about ticket splitting at the federal level (presidential vs. congressional) as opposed to state/local? The phrase "at least at the federal level" implies that at the national level, ticket splitting is rising. So sense 1 is appropriate.

Thus, sense_index 1.

The target word is "level" used in "at the federal level". This refers to a position in a hierarchy or scale of governance. It is not about intensity or quantity (sense 1), nor about a grade or tier in a graded group (sense 2), but it is about a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series (sense 3) with synonyms degree, stage, point. "Federal level" is a level of government, which fits sense 3: a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series, especially in a process. Also sense 7 (an abstract place) could be considered, but sense 3 seems more precise: "level" here means a stage or degree in a system. The example in sense 3 includes "at what stage are the social sciences?" which is similar. So sense_index 3 is the best.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "political" in the context. The context talks about "political 'ticket splitting'" and discusses congressional districts choosing different party candidates. This is about politics, parties, and elections. Sense 1: "involving or characteristic of politics or parties or politicians" fits very well with the context of ticket splitting, which is a political phenomenon. Sense 2: "relating to your views about social relationships involving authority or power" might be too specific to opinions. Sense 3: "relating to the profession of governing" is more about a career. The phrase "political ticket splitting" is about electoral politics, not necessarily governing profession. So sense 1 is best.

Target lemma: past
Target surface form: past
Context:
Tuesday's rout of a GOP congressional hopeful in a Mississippi district that hasn't backed a Democratic presidential candidate since Adlai Stevenson is another reminder that, at least at the federal level, political "ticket splitting "has been on the rise over the <t>past</t> half century. In only one presidential election year prior to 1948 did more than 20% of the nation's congressional districts choose a different party's candidate for the White House than for the House of Representatives.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=past%3:00:00:: | definition=earlier than the present time; no longer current | examples=time past; his youth is past
2. sense_key=past%5:00:00:outgoing:00 | definition=of a person who has held and relinquished a position or office | synonyms=preceding, retiring | examples=a retiring member of the board

Instructions:
1. Choose the single best indexed sense for the target word in context.
2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "past" in the context. The target is "past" as an adjective (since both senses are adjective senses). Context: "over the <t>past</t> half century." Here "past" means the half century that has passed, earlier than the present. Sense 1: "earlier than the present time; no longer current" fits perfectly. Sense 2: "of a person who has held and relinquished a position or office" does not fit because it's about a person, not a time period. So sense 1. Return JSON with sense_index 1.

raw_output: We are given a target word "presidential" in context. The context is about a "presidential election year" and "presidential candidate". The sentence mentions "presidential election year" and "presidential candidate". The first sense (3:01:00) is "relating to a president or presidency" with examples like "presidential aides; presidential veto". The second sense (3:00:00) is "befitting a president" with example "criticized the candidate for not looking presidential". In the context, it is used in "presidential election year" and "presidential candidate", which clearly refer to the office of the president, not to the quality of being like a president. So the first sense is appropriate. Thus, sense_index should be 1 (since the first sense is sense_key=presidential%3:01:00::). But note: the instruction says "Do not answer with a WordNet sense key" and "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}". Wait, the example output shows {"sense_index": 3}. That is ambiguous: sense_index might refer to the number in the list? The candidate senses are listed as 1 and 2. So we should output the sense index number (1 or 2). But the example says "like {"sense_index": 3}" which is not matching. Possibly a typo? The instruction says "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}". But in the candidate senses, they are labeled 1 and 2. So we need to output the index number that corresponds to the correct sense. Since the first sense is "relating to a president or presidency", which matches the context (presidential election, presidential candidate), that is sense 1. The second sense is "befitting a president", which is not about the election or candidate. So sense 1 is correct. So output {"sense_index": 1}. But the example in the instruction says "like {"sense_index": 3}" - that might be a placeholder. I'll follow the format as given but use the appropriate number.{"sense_index": 1}

[User] Your previous answer was invalid. Choose one candidate index between 1 and 2. Return only valid JSON exactly like {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content: The context says "presidential election year" and "presidential candidate". This clearly refers to the presidency as an office, not the quality of being like a president. So sense 1 is correct.
