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

Sentence: High-level officials such as Indian environment minister Jairam Ramesh and the Chinese vice minister stepped off planes and raced through the Bella Center's halls to closed-door meetings and news conferences so they could stake out <t>claims</t> that will be arbitrated over the next week.

Senses:
1. definition=an assertion of a right (as to money or property) | examples=his claim asked for damages
2. definition=an assertion that something is true or factual | examples=his claim that he was innocent
3. definition=demand for something as rightful or due | examples=they struck in support of their claim for a shorter work day
4. definition=an informal right to something | examples=his claim on her attentions
5. definition=an established or recognized right | examples=a strong legal claim to the property
6. definition=a demand especially in the phrase | examples=the call of duty

reasoning_content:
We need to identify which sense of "claim" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "High-level officials ... raced ... to closed-door meetings and news conferences so they could stake out <t>claims</t> that will be arbitrated over the next week." The word "claims" here refers to assertions or demands that will be arbitrated. Arbitration typically involves disputes or rights. The phrase "stake out claims" often means to assert a right or position. Looking at the senses:
1. assertion of a right (to money or property)
2. assertion that something is true
3. demand for something as rightful or due
4. informal right
5. established or recognized right
6. a demand especially in the phrase "the call of duty" (seems odd, probably a misprint? But sense 6 says "a demand especially in the phrase | the call of duty" - likely not relevant)

The context: officials staking out claims that will be arbitrated. Arbitration often resolves disputes over rights or demands. The claims are likely assertions of positions or rights, not just factual assertions. It might be sense 1 (assertion of a right) or sense 3 (demand for something as rightful or due). But note: "stake out claims" is idiomatic, meaning to assert a right or interest. In international negotiations, they are staking out positions. The word "arbitrated" suggests a formal process for resolving disputes, often over rights. Sense 5 is "an established or recognized right" – but these claims are not yet established; they are being staked out. Sense 1 is "an assertion of a right" which fits. Sense 3 is "demand for something as rightful or due" also fits. Which one is more precise? The sentence says "claims that will be arbitrated" – arbitration typically deals with disputes over rights or obligations. But both 1 and 3 are similar. Let's see the definitions: sense 1 explicitly includes "as to money or property" but it's not limited? It says "an assertion of a right (as to money or property)" – the example is about damages. Sense 3: "demand for something as rightful or due" – example about shorter work day. In the context of environmental negotiations, they are likely making demands or asserting positions. I think sense 3 might be more appropriate because it's a demand for something (like policy changes). However, "stake out claims" is a common phrase meaning to assert a right or ownership. I recall that "claim" in the sense of "a right to something" is often used in mining claims. But the arbitration suggests a dispute. Let's check the other senses: sense 2 is factual assertion – not likely because arbitration doesn't arbitrate factual assertions usually, but could be about facts. But "stake out" with a factual assertion seems odd. Sense 4 is informal right – less formal. Sense 5 is established right – not yet. So likely between 1 and 3.

I think the best fit is sense 1: assertion of a right. Because "stake out a claim" is an idiom meaning to assert a right to something, often land. In negotiations, they are asserting their rights or positions. The arbitration will decide on those claims. So I'll go with 1.

But let's double-check: The sentence says "stake out claims that will be arbitrated". In arbitration, parties present their claims (demands for relief). That is sense 3 maybe. Actually, in legal arbitration, "claim" often means a demand for something (like compensation). For example, "file a claim" is a demand. So sense 3 might be more direct. However, the definition of sense 3 says "demand for something as rightful or due". That fits. And sense 1 says "assertion of a right" – they are similar. I need to see which one is specifically used.

Given the phrasing "stake out" – that is often used with "claim" meaning a right to land. But also we say "stake out a position". I lean towards sense 1. But the instructions say "Return only the number of the correct sense." So I'll decide.

Maybe sense 2 is also possible? No, because "arbitrated" suggests a dispute, not just factual truth.

Let's search memory: In common usage, "claim" in the context of international negotiations often refers to demands or assertions of rights. I think sense 1 is the most common for "stake out a claim". Actually, the phrase "stake a claim" is defined as "to assert a right to something". That matches sense 1. So answer: 1.

However, note that sense 6 is "a demand especially in the phrase | the call of duty" – that seems like a typo or misrepresentation. The phrase "the call of duty" is not about claims. Probably a mistake. So ignore.

Thus, answer is 1.

This refers to each 24-hour period, i.e., the time for Earth to complete a rotation. Sense 1 is "time for Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis" with example "two days later they left". That fits. So answer is 1.

We need to determine which sense of "intensity" is used in the given sentence: "The intensity is only building: nearly all of the key ministers are now here, and as early as Wednesday 60 heads of government will be in Copenhagen." The context is about political gathering, building up of something. It suggests a high level or degree of activity, excitement, or importance. Not about energy transmission, sound magnitude, or color purity. So sense 2: high level or degree; the property of being intense.

Thus answer: 2

The sentence: "The intensity is only building: nearly all of the key <t>ministers</t> are now here, and as early as Wednesday 60 heads of government will be in Copenhagen." This is likely about a political event, like a climate summit. "Ministers" here refers to government officials, likely high-ranking ones like cabinet ministers. Sense 2: "a person appointed to a high office in the government" fits. Sense 3 is about diplomats, but ministers here are not necessarily diplomats; they are government officials. Sense 1 is religious, not applicable. Sense 4 is the job itself, not the person. So answer is 2.

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

Sentence: The <t>heavyweights</t> are coming.

3. definition=a professional boxer who weighs more than 190 pounds
4. definition=a very large person; impressive in size or qualities
5. definition=a person of exceptional importance and reputation

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "heavyweight" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence: "The <t>heavyweights</t> are coming." The sentence is ambiguous without context, but we have to choose from the given numbered senses. The phrase "are coming" suggests someone or something is arriving. The word "heavyweights" often refers to people of importance or large size. In common usage, "heavyweights" can refer to important or influential people, like corporate heavyweights or political heavyweights. Sense 5: "a person of exceptional importance and reputation" seems most appropriate. Sense 4: "a very large person; impressive in size or qualities" could also fit, but "heavyweights" in plural often means important figures. However, note that the sentence doesn't specify boxing or wrestling. The context is missing, but we need to select the most likely based on typical usage. Since the sentence is just "The heavyweights are coming," it could be used in a business or political context. The sense 5 is about importance and reputation. Sense 4 is about size or qualities. But "heavyweights" commonly means important people. So I'd go with 5. But check: The senses are numbered, and we need to return only the number. So answer: 5.

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "team" is used in the sentence. The sentence discusses a basketball game: "Caja Laboral achieved a stunning 82-91 victory..." and mentions "Dusko Ivanovic's team's heavy losses" and "the best on his team".

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

Sentence: Caja Laboral achieved a stunning 82-91 victory on their visit to the Maccabee Electra court despite Dusko Ivanovic's team's heavy <t>losses</t>, and after the great performance by Mizra Teltovic, who was the best on his team with eight three-pointers scored (29 points), they now at the top of their group.

Senses:
1. definition=something that is lost | examples=the car was a total loss
2. definition=gradual decline in amount or activity | examples=weight loss
3. definition=the act of losing someone or something | examples=everyone expected him to win so his loss was a shock
4. definition=the disadvantage that results from losing something | examples=his loss of credibility led to his resignation
5. definition=the experience of losing a loved one | examples=he sympathized on the loss of their grandfather
6. definition=the amount by which the cost of a business exceeds its revenue | examples=the company operated at a loss last year
7. definition=military personnel lost by death or capture
8. definition=euphemistic expressions for death | examples=thousands mourned his passing

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "loss" is used in the sentence. The sentence talks about a basketball game: "Caja Laboral achieved a stunning 82-91 victory ... despite Dusko Ivanovic's team's heavy losses". Here, "losses" likely refers to players who were absent or unavailable, possibly due to injury, suspension, or other reasons. In sports context, "losses" often means players lost (not playing) or maybe points? But reading carefully: "despite Dusko Ivanovic's team's heavy losses" - meaning the team had many players missing. That fits sense 7: "military personnel lost by death or capture" but adapted to sports? Actually sense 7 is specifically military, but the wording "losses" in sports often means players lost to injury or other reasons. However, the definition for sense 7 is "military personnel lost by death or capture". That's not exactly sports. But there is no other sense that fits. Sense 3: "the act of losing someone or something" could apply, but "heavy losses" typically refers to a number of people lost. Sense 8 is about death euphemisms. So the best fit is sense 7, but it's military. However, note that the sentence is about a basketball team, so "losses" here means players that the team is missing (likely due to injury or not being available). In many dictionaries, "loss" can refer to the number of soldiers killed, but also can be extended to any personnel lost. Given the options, sense 7 is the only one that specifically refers to personnel lost. So answer is 7.

In sports, teams are organized into groups (like in a tournament). That matches sense 1: any number of entities considered as a unit. Sense 2 is chemistry, sense 3 is mathematical group. So answer is 1.

The sentence: "The Vitorian <t>team</t> knew to make up for the significant absences of Herrmann, Oleson, Huertas and Micov with a big dose of involvement and teamwork, even though it had to hold out until the end to take the victory."

Senses:
1. definition=a cooperative unit (especially in sports)

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

Sentence: The Vitorian team knew to make up for the significant <t>absences</t> of Herrmann, Oleson, Huertas and Micov with a big dose of involvement and teamwork, even though it had to hold out until the end to take the victory.

Senses:
1. definition=the state of being absent | examples=he was surprised by the absence of any explanation
2. definition=failure to be present
3. definition=the time interval during which something or somebody is away | examples=he visited during my absence
4. definition=the occurrence of an abrupt, transient loss or impairment of consciousness (which is not subsequently remembered), sometimes with light twitching, fluttering eyelids, etc.; common in petit mal epilepsy

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "absence" is used in the given sentence. The sentence talks about absences of specific players (Herrmann, Oleson, Huertas, Micov). This clearly refers to them not being present (failure to be present). Sense 2 is "failure to be present". Sense 1 is "the state of being absent" which is similar but the example is about absence of explanation, not people. Sense 3 is about time interval. Sense 4 is medical. So the correct sense is 2.

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

Sentence: The Vitorian team knew to make up for the significant absences of Herrmann, Oleson, Huertas and Micov with a big dose of <t>involvement</t> and teamwork, even though it had to hold out until the end to take the victory.

reasoning_content: We need to match the sentence's use of "involvement" to the numbered senses. The sentence talks about a team making up for absences with "involvement and teamwork". This implies participation, sharing in activities. Sense 1: "the act of sharing in the activities of a group" fits. Sense 2 is about connection/inclusion but more like being part of an incident. Sense 3 is about interest/curiosity. Sense 4 is sexual. Sense 5 is about sharing in common with others (fellows/partners). Sense 5 is similar but more about condition of sharing commonality. Sense 1 explicitly mentions "sharing in activities of a group" which matches teamwork context. So answer is 1.

13. definition=a piece of cloth that is left over after the rest has been used or sold
14. definition=(American football) a position on the line of scrimmage | examples=no one wanted to play end

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which sense of "end" is used in the sentence: "The Vitorian team knew to make up for the significant absences ... even though it had to hold out until the <t>end</t> to take the victory."

The phrase "until the end" refers to a point in time: they held out until the conclusion of the game or event. So it's about the point in time when something ends. That matches sense 2: "the point in time at which something ends" with examples like "the end of the year". Alternatively, sense 3: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence" could also fit, but "until the end" typically emphasizes the moment, not the concluding parts. However, let's examine: "hold out until the end" means they endured until the final moment. That is a point in time. Sense 2 is more precise. Sense 3 is about the concluding parts, e.g., "the end was exciting" refers to the final portion of the event. But "until the end" is temporal. So I'll choose sense 2.

Thus answer: 2.

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

Sentence: Additionally, their huge success from the <t>sidelines</t>, with 16 three pointers scored, had a lot to do with the final triumph.

Senses:
1. definition=a line that marks the side boundary of a playing field
2. definition=an auxiliary line of merchandise
3. definition=an auxiliary activity

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "sidelines" is used in the given sentence. The sentence: "Additionally, their huge success from the <t>sidelines</t>, with 16 three pointers scored, had a lot to do with the final triumph." This is about basketball (three pointers). "From the sidelines" likely means they were not on the court but watching or supporting from the side? But the phrase "success from the sidelines" might refer to making three-pointers from the side lines? Actually, three-pointers are shots from beyond the arc, not necessarily from the sideline. However, the phrase "from the sidelines" could be metaphorical, meaning they were not directly involved? But the context: "their huge success from the sidelines, with 16 three pointers scored" – this seems to indicate that the team's success came from shooting three-pointers, which are often taken from the perimeter, near the sidelines? But "sidelines" here likely refers to the actual lines on the basketball court marking the side boundaries. So sense 1: a line that marks the side boundary of a playing field. That fits: they scored three-pointers from the sidelines (i.e., from near the sideline area). Sense 2: an auxiliary line of merchandise – not relevant. Sense 3: an auxiliary activity – not relevant. So answer is 1.

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

Sentence: Additionally, their huge success from the sidelines, with 16 three pointers scored, had a <t>lot</t> to do with the final triumph.

3. definition=an unofficial association of people or groups | examples=the smart set goes there
4. definition=your overall circumstances or condition in life (including everything that happens to you) | examples=whatever my fortune may be
5. definition=anything (straws or pebbles etc.) taken or chosen at random | examples=the luck of the draw
6. definition=any collection in its entirety | examples=she bought the whole caboodle
7. definition=(Old Testament) nephew of Abraham; God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah but chose to spare Lot and his family who were told to flee without looking back at the destruction

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "lot" is used in the sentence: "Additionally, their huge success from the sidelines, with 16 three pointers scored, had a lot to do with the final triumph." The phrase "had a lot to do with" means "was a significant factor" or "was largely responsible for". Here "a lot" means a large amount or degree. That corresponds to sense 1: "a large number or amount or extent". So answer is 1.

Senses:
1. definition=a successful ending of a struggle or contest | examples=a narrow victory

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "triumph" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "Additionally, their huge success from the sidelines, with 16 three pointers scored, had a lot to do with the final triumph."

3. definition=an amusement or pastime | examples=they played word games

10. definition=your occupation or line of work | examples=he's in the plumbing game
11. definition=frivolous or trifling behavior | examples=for actors, memorizing lines is no game

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "game" is used in the sentence: "The game started out in favor of the Azulgranas, who put themselves ahead on the scoreboard from the start." The context is a sports contest, likely soccer (Azulgranas is a reference to a team, possibly FC Barcelona's colors). The sentence talks about a game that started, with a scoreboard. This aligns with sense 2: a single play of a sport or other contest. Sense 1 is a general contest with rules, but sense 2 specifies a single play (like a match). The example "the game lasted two hours" matches the usage. So answer is 2

3. definition=an inclination to approve | examples=that style is in favor this season
4. definition=a feeling of favorable regard
5. definition=souvenir consisting of a small gift given to a guest at a party

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "favor" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "The game started out in favor of the Azulgranas, who put themselves ahead on the scoreboard from the start." The phrase "in favor of" indicates that the advantage is to the benefit of the Azulgranas. This matches sense 2: "an advantage to the benefit of someone or something" with example "the outcome was in his favor". So answer is 2.

2. definition=the quantity contained in a basket
3. definition=horizontal circular metal hoop supporting a net through which players try to throw the basketball

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "basket" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "As Vitora's first four <t>baskets</t> were from the perimeter, the speculation was already that they had jumped into the Israeli net with hot wrists." The context is basketball: "baskets" likely refer to scores, as in points made by throwing the ball through the hoop. Sense 4: "a score in basketball made by throwing the ball through the hoop." The phrase "from the perimeter" indicates shots from outside, and "baskets" here means the points scored. So answer is 4.

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

Sentence: As Vitora's first four baskets were from the <t>perimeter</t>, the speculation was already that they had jumped into the Israeli net with hot wrists.

Senses:
1. definition=the boundary line or the area immediately inside the boundary
2. definition=a line enclosing a plane areas
3. definition=the size of something as given by the distance around it

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "perimeter" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "As Vitora's first four baskets were from the perimeter, the speculation was already that they had jumped into the Israeli net with hot wrists." This is about basketball. In basketball, "perimeter" refers to the area outside the key, typically where jump shots are taken. That aligns with sense 1: "the boundary line or the area immediately inside the boundary" — specifically the area inside the boundary. Sense 2 is a line enclosing a plane area, which is more geometric. Sense 3 is the size around something. Here it's the area. So sense 1 is correct.

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

Sentence: As Vitora's first four baskets were from the perimeter, the <t>speculation</t> was already that they had jumped into the Israeli net with hot wrists.

Senses:
1. definition=a message expressing an opinion based on incomplete evidence

4. definition=continuous and profound contemplation or musing on a subject or series of subjects of a deep or abstruse nature | examples=the habit of meditation is the basis for all real knowledge

reasoning_content: We need to match the sentence's use of "speculation" to one of the four numbered senses. The sentence: "As Vitora's first four baskets were from the perimeter, the speculation was already that they had jumped into the Israeli net with hot wrists." This is about a basketball scenario: Vitora made four baskets from the perimeter (long-range), so people are speculating that they (the team?) have hot wrists and jumped into the Israeli net? It's a bit unclear but likely means people are guessing or forming an opinion based on incomplete evidence. Sense 1: "a message expressing an opinion based on incomplete evidence" fits. Sense 2 is similar but more about hypothesis forming; however sense 1 is more direct. Sense 3 is investment, not relevant. Sense 4 is meditation, not relevant. So sense 1 is the best.

Sentence: English and Teletovic were the main <t>scorers</t> of the 18-20 at the end of the first period.

Senses:
1. definition=a player who makes a score in a game or contest
2. definition=a logger who marks trees to be felled

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "scorer" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "English and Teletovic were the main <t>scorers</t> of the 18-20 at the end of the first period." This is a sports context: "18-20" likely refers to a score (points), and "first period" is a period of a game. So "scorers" here means players who made points. That matches sense 1. Sense 2 is about logging trees, sense 3 is an official recording scores. The sentence says "main scorers" meaning the players themselves. So correct sense is 1.

13. definition=a piece of cloth that is left over after the rest has been used or sold
14. definition=(American football) a position on the line of scrimmage | examples=no one wanted to play end

reasoning_content: We need to identify which numbered sense of "end" is used in the sentence: "English and Teletovic were the main scorers of the 18-20 at the end of the first period." The phrase "at the end of the first period" refers to a point in time when the first period ends. That matches sense 2: "the point in time at which something ends". Also sense 3 "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence" could be similar, but the phrase "at the end" typically indicates a point in time rather than the concluding parts as a whole. However, sense 2 explicitly says "the point in time at which something ends". The example "the end of the year" is analogous to "the end of the first period". So sense 2 is correct. Return only the number.

We need to identify which sense of "quarter" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43)."

Here, "quarter" refers to a division of a game, as it mentions "half-time" and a score. The context is sports (likely basketball or football, given "inside game" and "half-time"). The second quarter of a game. This matches sense 3: (football, professional basketball) one of four divisions into which some games are divided.

Thus, answer is 3.

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

Sentence: The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan <t>team</t> opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43).

Senses:
1. definition=a cooperative unit (especially in sports)
2. definition=two or more draft animals that work together to pull something

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "team" is used in the sentence. The sentence mentions "Alavan team" in the context of a basketball game (second quarter, inside game, etc.). So it's a sports team. Sense 1 is "a cooperative unit (especially in sports)". Sense 2 is about draft animals. Clearly sense 1. Return only the number.

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

Sentence: The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the <t>work</t> of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43).

Senses:
1. definition=activity directed toward making or doing something | examples=she checked several points needing further work
2. definition=a product produced or accomplished through the effort or activity or agency of a person or thing | examples=it is not regarded as one of his more memorable works
3. definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=he is looking for employment
4. definition=applying the mind to learning and understanding a subject (especially by reading) | examples=mastering a second language requires a lot of work
5. definition=(physics) a manifestation of energy; the transfer of energy from one physical system to another expressed as the product of a force and the distance through which it moves a body in the direction of that force | examples=work equals force times distance
6. definition=a place where work is done | examples=he arrived at work early today
7. definition=the total output of a writer or artist (or a substantial part of it) | examples=he studied the entire Wagnerian oeuvre

reasoning_content: We need to determine which sense of "work" is used in the sentence: "the work of Eliyahu". The context is a basketball game. "The inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu" suggests Eliyahu's performance or efforts on the court. The sense likely refers to activity directed toward making or doing something, i.e., his actions or play. Sense 1: "activity directed toward making or doing something" fits. Sense 2 is a product, but here it's his performance, not a product. Sense 3 is occupation, not relevant. Sense 4 is learning, no. Sense 5 is physics, no. Sense 6 is a place, no. Sense 7 is total output, not. So answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with <t>whistles</t> and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43).

Senses:
1. definition=the sound made by something moving rapidly or by steam coming out of a small aperture
2. definition=the act of signalling (e.g., summoning) by whistling or blowing a whistle | examples=the whistle signalled the end of the game
3. definition=a small wind instrument that produces a whistling sound by blowing into it
4. definition=acoustic device that forces air or steam against an edge or into a cavity and so produces a loud shrill sound
5. definition=an inexpensive fipple flute

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which sense of "whistle" fits the sentence: "he was greeted with whistles and applause". This is likely referring to sounds made by people (audience) as a form of greeting or expression. Among the senses, sense 2 is about signaling by whistling or blowing a whistle. But here, "whistles" are likely the sounds made by people whistling (using their mouths) as a sign of approval or greeting, not necessarily a signaling device. However, sense 1 is "the sound made by something moving rapidly or by steam coming out of a small aperture" – that doesn't fit. Sense 3 is a small wind instrument, sense 4 is an acoustic device, sense 5 is a fipple flute. None of those fit the context of people whistling. But sense 2 includes "the act of signalling (e.g., summoning) by whistling or blowing a whistle". The example given is "the whistle signalled the end of the game", which is a whistle as an object. However, "whistles" in the sentence could be the plural of the noun meaning the sound made by people whistling? The dictionary might list sense 2 as the act of whistling as a signal. The sentence says "greeted with whistles and applause" – typically this means people are whistling and clapping. So it's the sound of whistling. Which sense covers that? Sense 1 is for sound made by something moving rapidly or steam – not people. Sense 2 is about signaling by whistling – that includes the act of whistling? The definition says "the act of signalling (e.g., summoning) by whistling or blowing a whistle". So the act itself is the signal. But "whistles" as a noun could refer to the sounds produced during that act. In common usage, "whistles" in such contexts means the sound of people whistling. I think sense 2 is the closest: it's the act of signaling by whistling, and the sentence uses it as a noun meaning the sounds of whistling. The example uses "whistle" as a noun for the device, but the definition mentions "the act of signalling by whistling". So I'll go with sense 2.

Thus answer: 2

12. definition=(American football) the act of running back the ball after a kickoff or punt or interception or fumble
13. definition=the act of someone appearing again | examples=his reappearance as Hamlet has been long awaited

reasoning_content:

The sentence: "The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43)."

The phrase is "at his return home". This clearly refers to coming back to his home, i.e., a return to his home. Among the senses, #2: "a coming to or returning home" with example "on his return from Australia we gave him a welcoming party" matches exactly. So answer is 2.

7. definition=an environment offering affection and security | examples=home is where the heart is

9. definition=an institution where people are cared for | examples=a home for the elderly

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which sense of "home" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return <t>home</t>, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43)."

Context: A basketball game? "Alavan team" likely a team name. "Barac" and "Eliyahu" are players. "Greeted with whistles and applause at his return home" suggests that Eliyahu is returning to his home arena or city. In sports, "home" often refers to the team's home venue or home city. So it's about the place where the team plays its home games. Among the senses, sense 3: "the country or state or city where you live" fits, but more specifically it could be sense 5: "the place where you are stationed and from which missions start and end" (like a home base). Sense 5 is defined as "the place where you are stationed and from which missions start and end" – that could apply to a sports team's home arena. However, sense 3 says "the country or state or city where you live" which is broader. The player is returning to his home team's city/arena. The phrase "return home" often means return to one's hometown or home city. In sports, "home" can also refer to the home field/court. Let's check the other senses: sense 1 is where you live at a particular time (like your residence), sense 2 is housing, sense 4 is baseball base, sense 6 is place where something began, sense 7 is environment of affection, sense 8 is a social unit, sense 9 is institution. The most plausible is sense 3 or sense 5. Sense 5 explicitly mentions "the place where you are stationed and from which missions start and end" – that fits a team's home base. But sense 3 also works: the city where you live. Since the player is returning to his home city/arena, both are close. However, the example for sense 3 is "Canadian tariffs enabled United States lumber companies to raise prices at home" – that's about domestic market. For sports, "home" often refers to the home stadium. Sense 5's example is not given, but the definition is apt. I lean towards sense 5 because it's more specific to a base of operations. Alternatively, sense 3 could be interpreted as "the country or state or city where you live" – the player's home city. But in sports context, "return home" often means returning to play in front of their home fans, i.e., their home arena. The sentence says "greeted with whistles and applause at his return home" – likely the fans are greeting him as he returns to the home venue. So it's the place where the team plays its home games. That is essentially the team's home base. Therefore, sense 5 is the best match.

Check sense 6: "place where something began and flourished" – not really; the player isn't returning to where basketball began. Sense 7: environment of affection – could be metaphorical but not literal.

Thus, answer should be 5.

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

Sentence: The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their <t>lead</t> by half-time (34-43).

Senses:
1. definition=an advantage held by a competitor in a race | examples=he took the lead at the last turn
2. definition=a soft heavy toxic malleable metallic element; bluish white when freshly cut but tarnishes readily to dull grey | examples=the children were playing with lead soldiers
3. definition=evidence pointing to a possible solution | examples=the police are following a promising lead
4. definition=a position of leadership (especially in the phrase `take the lead') | examples=he takes the lead in any group
5. definition=the angle between the direction a gun is aimed and the position of a moving target (correcting for the flight time of the missile)
6. definition=the introductory section of a story | examples=it was an amusing lead-in to a very serious matter
7. definition=(sports) the score by which a team or individual is winning
8. definition=an actor who plays a principal role

10. definition=an indication of potential opportunity | examples=he got a tip on the stock market
11. definition=a news story of major importance
12. definition=the timing of ignition relative to the position of the piston in an internal-combustion engine

15. definition=mixture of graphite with clay in different degrees of hardness; the marking substance in a pencil
16. definition=a jumper that consists of a short piece of wire | examples=it was a tangle of jumper cables and clip leads
17. definition=the playing of a card to start a trick in bridge | examples=the lead was in the dummy

reasoning_content: We need to identify which sense of "lead" is used in the sentence. The sentence: "to continue increasing their <t>lead</t> by half-time (34-43)." The context is a basketball game (Alavan team, inside game, etc.). The number in parentheses (34-43) indicates the score. So "lead" refers to the point advantage that one team has over the other. Among the senses, sense 7 is "(sports) the score by which a team or individual is winning." That matches. Sense 1 is also "an advantage held by a competitor in a race" which is similar but sense 7 is specifically sports score. However, the description for sense 1 says "he took the lead at the last turn" which is more about being in first place. But here it's increasing the lead, meaning increasing the margin. Sense 7 explicitly says "the score by which a team or individual is winning." That fits perfectly. So answer is 7.

We need to determine which sense of "night" is used in the sentence: "Teletovic had already begun to stand out as the best on his team with 13 points, even though Splitter's 'six fewer' points already signaled that it wasn't going to be the best night for the Brazilian."

The context is about a basketball game or sports event. "Night" here refers to the evening or the time of the game, likely meaning the performance during that particular game. The phrase "the best night" means the best performance or outcome for that player during that evening's game. Among the senses, sense 7: "the time between sunset and midnight" with example "he watched television every night" is close, but sense 1: "the time after sunset and before sunrise while it is dark outside" is also possible. However, the phrase "it wasn't going to be the best night" is idiomatic, meaning it wasn't going to be a good performance or outcome for that player. This is similar to sense 3: "the period spent sleeping" but that's not it. Actually, sense 3 is about sleeping, not about a game. Sense 7 is about the time period, but the usage is more about the event that occurs during that time. Often in sports, "night" refers to the game that takes place in the evening. The sentence says "the best night for the Brazilian" meaning the best game or performance. This is a common usage: "He had a great night" meaning a great performance. Among the given senses, none explicitly say "a particular evening's event", but sense 7 is the closest: "the time between sunset and midnight" which is when games typically occur. Sense 1 is broader. However, the phrase "the best night" is not about the time itself but about the quality of the event. But we must choose from the numbered senses. Let's read all senses carefully:

1. definition=the time after sunset and before sunrise while it is dark outside
2. definition=a period of ignorance or backwardness or gloom
3. definition=the period spent sleeping | examples=I had a restless night
4. definition=the dark part of the diurnal cycle considered a time unit | examples=three nights later he collapsed
5. definition=darkness | examples=it vanished into the night
6. definition=a shortening of nightfall | examples=they worked from morning to night
7. definition=the time between sunset and midnight | examples=he watched television every night
8. definition=Roman goddess of night; daughter of Erebus; counterpart of Greek Nyx

The sentence: "it wasn't going to be the best night for the Brazilian." This is similar to saying "it wasn't going to be his best night" meaning his performance that evening. This is a common idiomatic use. Which sense captures that? Sense 7 is about the time period, but the example "he watched television every night" is about habitual action. Sense 1 is also about time. However, the phrase "best night" is often used to refer to a particular evening's experience. In sports commentary, "night" is used to refer to the game. I think sense 7 is the most appropriate because it specifies the time between sunset and midnight, which is when games are played. Sense 1 is too broad (includes entire night). But note that sense 3 is about sleeping, which is not relevant. Sense 4 is about a time unit. Sense 6 is about nightfall. None directly match the idiomatic usage, but sense 7 is the closest. Alternatively, sense 1 could also work. However, we need to pick the number. Let's think: In the sentence, "night" is used to refer to the period of the game, which is typically in the evening. The phrase "the best night" means the best performance during that evening. So it's a specific time period. I'd go with sense 7. But let's see if there's any other clue. The sentence mentions "Splitter's 'six fewer' points" indicating a basketball game. So it's about a game that happened at night. So sense 7 is appropriate. I'll answer 7.
