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

Sentence: He had no ready <t>answer</t>, as much from surprise as from the fit of coughing.

Senses:
1. definition=a statement (either spoken or written) that is made to reply to a question or request or criticism or accusation | examples=I waited several days for his answer
2. definition=a statement that solves a problem or explains how to solve the problem | examples=they were trying to find a peaceful solution
3. definition=the speech act of replying to a question
4. definition=the principal pleading by the defendant in response to plaintiff's complaint; in criminal law it consists of the defendant's plea of `guilty' or `not guilty' (or nolo contendere); in civil law it must contain denials of all allegations in the plaintiff's complaint that the defendant hopes to controvert and it can contain affirmative defenses or counterclaims
5. definition=a nonverbal reaction | examples=his answer to any problem was to get drunk

We need to determine which sense of "answer" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence: "He had no ready <t>answer</t>, as much from surprise as from the fit of coughing."

Senses list:
1. a statement (either spoken or written) that is made to reply to a question or request or criticism or accusation | examples=I waited several days for his answer
2. a statement that solves a problem or explains how to solve the problem | examples=they were trying to find a peaceful solution
3. the speech act of replying to a question
4. the principal pleading by the defendant in response to plaintiff's complaint; in criminal law it consists of the defendant's plea of `guilty' or `not guilty' ... (legal)
5. a nonverbal reaction | examples=his answer to any problem was to get drunk

The sentence: "He had no ready answer, as much from surprise as from the fit of coughing." Here, "answer" likely refers to a verbal reply, something he could say in response. The context suggests that he was surprised and coughing, so he couldn't produce a reply. That aligns with sense 1: a statement made to reply to a question or request or criticism or accusation. The phrase "ready answer" means a quick reply. Sense 3 is "the speech act of replying to a question," but "answer" in "had no ready answer" refers to the reply itself (the statement), not the act. Typically, "answer" as a noun meaning a reply is sense 1. The example "I waited several days for his answer" refers to the statement. So sense 1 fits. Sense 3 is the speech act, which is a bit more abstract, but the sentence "He had no ready answer" clearly indicates a reply (something he would say). The distinction: sense 1 is the content (statement), sense 3 is the act. In "had no ready answer", "answer" is a thing possessed, a reply. So it's the statement (sense 1). Sense 5 is nonverbal reaction, but the context doesn't suggest a nonverbal reaction; it's likely verbal because he had no ready answer due to surprise and coughing, implying he couldn't speak. So I'll go with 1.

3. definition=the act of surprising someone"

We need to analyze the sentence: "He had no ready answer, as much from surprise as from the fit of coughing." Here, "surprise" refers to his internal feeling of being surprised, which prevented him from having a ready answer. That matches sense 1: the astonishment you feel. Sense 2 is an event, sense 3 is the act of surprising. So it's sense 1. The answer should be "1".

Sentence: "He had no ready answer, as much from surprise as from the <t>fit</t> of coughing."

Senses:
1. definition=a display of bad temper | examples=he had a fit
2. definition=a sudden uncontrollable attack | examples=a paroxysm of giggling
3. definition=the manner in which something fits | examples=I admired the fit of her coat
4. definition=a sudden flurry of activity (often for no obvious reason) | examples=a burst of applause

We need to identify which sense of "fit" is used. The phrase is "fit of coughing". This is a common expression meaning an uncontrollable coughing spell. So it matches "a sudden uncontrollable attack". Sense 2: "definition=a sudden uncontrollable attack | examples=a paroxysm of giggling". "Fit of coughing" is similar to "paroxysm of giggling" – both are uncontrollable attacks. So the correct sense is 2.

We need to determine which sense fits the sentence. The sentence asks "Was the man drunk or crazy or both?" Clearly, it's referring to literal intoxication (by alcohol or drugs) vs. mental instability. It's not metaphorical "as if under the influence". So sense 1 is correct. Answer: 1

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

Sentence: Was the man drunk or <t>crazy</t> or both?

Senses:
1. definition=affected with madness or insanity | examples=a man who had gone mad
2. definition=foolish; totally unsound | examples=a crazy scheme
3. definition=possessed by inordinate excitement | examples=the crowd went crazy
4. definition=bizarre or fantastic | examples=had a crazy dream
5. definition=intensely enthusiastic about or preoccupied with | examples=crazy about cars and racing

reasoning_content:
We are given a sentence: "Was the man drunk or crazy or both?" We need to determine which numbered sense of "crazy" is being used, based on the provided definitions and examples. The word "crazy" in the sentence is contrasted with "drunk". "Was the man drunk or crazy or both?" implies a state of mind. Drunk means intoxicated with alcohol. "Crazy" here likely means mentally unstable or insane. Let's look at the senses:

1. definition=affected with madness or insanity | examples=a man who had gone mad
2. definition=foolish; totally unsound | examples=a crazy scheme
3. definition=possessed by inordinate excitement | examples=the crowd went crazy
4. definition=bizarre or fantastic | examples=had a crazy dream
5. definition=intensely enthusiastic about or preoccupied with | examples=crazy about cars and racing

Sense 1 matches the context: "affected with madness or insanity". The sentence asks if the man was drunk or insane or both. The example "a man who had gone mad" aligns with this. Sense 2 is "foolish; totally unsound" like a crazy scheme, which doesn't fit as well because it's describing a person's mental state, not a plan. Sense 3 is excitement, sense 4 is bizarre, sense 5 is enthusiasm. The best fit is sense 1.

We are asked: "Which numbered sense of 'match' (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense."

Sentence: "But his new-found buddy had <t>matched</t> him drink for drink until he lost count, and the man's eyes were still clear."

We have 10 senses with definitions and examples.

We need to interpret the sentence: "matched him drink for drink" means the buddy kept up with him by drinking an equal amount of alcohol for each drink the person had. It's about keeping pace, doing the same thing equally. Which sense fits?

1. be compatible, similar or consistent; coincide in their characteristics. (Not exactly; it's about matching actions, not just characteristics.)
2. provide funds complementary to. (No, not money.)
3. bring two objects, ideas, or people together. (No.)
4. be equal to in quality or ability. (Example: Nothing can rival cotton... This is about being equal in quality, but "matched him drink for drink" is about performing an action equally, not just quality.)
5. make correspond or harmonize. (Example: Match my sweater. Not quite.)
6. satisfy or fulfill. (meet a need) - No.
7. give or join in marriage. No.
8. set into opposition or rivalry. (Example: let them match their best athletes against ours. Could be a competition, but the phrase "drink for drink" suggests matching consumption, not opposing.)
9. be equal or harmonize. (Example: The two pieces match. This is intransitive, while sentence uses transitive "matched him".)
10. make equal, uniform, corresponding, or matching. (Example: let's equalize the duties... This is about making things equal.)

Wait, check the wording: "matched him drink for drink". This means for every drink the other person took, the buddy took one too. This is a specific idiom: "match someone drink for drink" means to drink as much as someone else, keeping up with them. This implies a sense of rivalry or competition in drinking, or simply keeping pace. It might correspond to sense 8: "set into opposition or rivalry" (match their best athletes against ours). Or sense 9: "be equal or harmonize"? Sense 9 is intransitive. The verb is used transitively: "matched him". Sense 8 is transitive: "match X against Y". The example: "let them match their best athletes against ours". However, the sentence doesn't have "against". It's "matched him drink for drink". Another possibility: sense 4: "be equal to in quality or ability" - "Nothing can rival cotton for durability". "Rival" is similar. "Match someone in something" can mean to be equal to them in that activity. But "matched him drink for drink" is a specific construction. Sense 10: "make equal, uniform, corresponding, or matching" - example: "let's equalize the duties..." This is about making something equal. "He matched him drink for drink" could mean he made his drinking equal to him? Not exactly.

Let's look at typical dictionary definitions of "match" in "match someone drink for drink": it means to keep pace with, to equal someone in an activity. Often it's considered a challenge or competition. The phrase "drink for drink" implies an equal exchange. I think it's closest to sense 4: "be equal to in quality or ability", but extended to action. However, sense 4's example is "Nothing can rival cotton for durability", which uses "rival". Sense 8 is "set into opposition or rivalry" - but that's about arranging a competition, not about the act of keeping up. Sense 9 is intransitive. Sense 5 "make correspond or harmonize" (match my sweater) is about coordinating. Sense 10 is "make equal, uniform, corresponding, or matching" (equalize duties). Could be 10? "make equal" - he made his drinking equal to his friend's.

Let's see the exact senses:
1. be compatible, similar or consistent; coincide in their characteristics | The two stories don't agree in many details -> intransitive "agree"?
2. provide funds complementary to | transitive
3. bring two objects, ideas, or people together | This fact is coupled to the other one -> "couple"
4. be equal to in quality or ability | Nothing can rival cotton for durability -> "rival"
5. make correspond or harmonize | Match my sweater -> "match" as in coordinate
6. satisfy or fulfill | meet a need
7. give or join in marriage
8. set into opposition or rivalry | let them match their best athletes against ours -> "match against"
9. be equal or harmonize | The two pieces match -> intransitive
10. make equal, uniform, corresponding, or matching | let's equalize the duties among all employees in this office -> "equalize"

The phrase "matched him drink for drink" means he equaled him in drinking, drink for drink. So it's a transitive use meaning "to equal" or "to keep up with". Which sense captures "to equal in performance or action"? Sense 4 says "be equal to in quality or ability" (rival). That seems close; "he rivaled him drink for drink" is similar. But it says "be equal to in quality or ability", not necessarily in action. However, often "match" meaning "to be equal to" is used for actions: "I can't match his speed." "He matched his opponent's every move." This is sense 4 or a variant.

But let's check WordNet or typical sense inventories. The example "Nothing can rival cotton for durability" is for "rival", which is a synonym of "match" in that sense. The sentence "But his new-found buddy had matched him drink for drink..." means the buddy equaled him in drinking. So sense 4: be equal to in quality or ability. Wait, the definition says "be equal to in quality or ability". Drinking is an ability? "Drink for drink" might be considered an ability (ability to hold liquor). So sense 4 fits.

Could it be sense 10? "make equal" - "let's equalize the duties". That implies a deliberate action to make two things equal. "He matched him drink for drink" means he drank an equal amount, not that he made something equal, but his action resulted in equality. He equaled him. Sense 10 is about a person making two things equal, like duties. "Match" can mean to make equal, e.g., "match the scores". But "matched him" is different; the direct object is the person being equaled. In sense 10, the object would be the things being made equal. "He matched his drinking to his buddy's" would be sense 10 or 5. But "matched him" has the person as object, which is typical for sense 4: "rival someone in something".

Let's review the example for sense 4: "Nothing can rival cotton for durability". That's "rival" as a verb. "Match" is often synonymous with "rival" in this sense. So sense 4 is "be equal to in quality or ability". "He matched him drink for drink" means he was equal to him in drinking ability. So I think it's 4.

Alternatively, sense 8: "set into opposition or rivalry" - "match their best athletes against ours". That's setting up a match. The sentence is not setting up a match; it's describing an ongoing action of matching drink for drink. So not 8.

Sense 9: "be equal or harmonize" - "The two pieces match". Intransitive. The verb is transitive here.

Therefore, sense 4 seems correct.

Let me double-check. The instruction: "Which numbered sense of 'match' ... is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense." So I just output the number.

I'll go with 4.

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

Sentence: But his new-found buddy had matched him <t>drink</t> for drink until he lost count, and the man's eyes were still clear.

Senses:
1. definition=a single serving of a beverage | examples=I asked for a hot drink
2. definition=the act of drinking alcoholic beverages to excess | examples=drink was his downfall
3. definition=any liquid suitable for drinking | examples=may I take your beverage order?
4. definition=any large deep body of water | examples=he jumped into the drink and had to be rescued
5. definition=the act of swallowing | examples=one swallow of the liquid was enough

We are given the sentence: "But his new-found buddy had matched him <t>drink</t> for drink until he lost count, and the man's eyes were still clear."

We need to decide which numbered sense of "drink" (given with <t> tags) is used here. The senses are:

1. definition=a single serving of a beverage | examples=I asked for a hot drink
2. definition=the act of drinking alcoholic beverages to excess | examples=drink was his downfall
3. definition=any liquid suitable for drinking | examples=may I take your beverage order?
4. definition=any large deep body of water | examples=he jumped into the drink and had to be rescued
5. definition=the act of swallowing | examples=one swallow of the liquid was enough

The phrase is "drink for drink". This is an idiomatic expression meaning each person drinks an amount equal to what the other drinks. It refers to the individual servings of a beverage (typically alcoholic). So "drink" here refers to a single serving of a beverage, like a glass of beer, a shot, etc. "Drink for drink" means one drink (one serving) in exchange for another drink (one serving). So sense 1 seems correct.

Let's review the other senses to be sure:
2: the act of drinking to excess – not a countable "drink" that can be matched.
3: any liquid suitable for drinking – too general; "drink for drink" implies countable units, like servings.
4: body of water – irrelevant.
5: act of swallowing – doesn't fit "drink for drink" (that would mean one swallow for one swallow, but "drink" typically means the whole serving, not just one swallow).

Thus, sense 1 is correct.

Sentence: "But his new-found buddy had matched him drink for <t>drink</t> until he lost count, and the man's eyes were still clear."

We need to choose among the given senses:

1. a single serving of a beverage
2. the act of drinking alcoholic beverages to excess
3. any liquid suitable for drinking
4. any large deep body of water
5. the act of swallowing

The phrase is "drink for drink". This idiom means each person drinks one drink, and the other matches it, drink by drink. It's about matching each single serving of an alcoholic beverage. So "drink" here refers to a single serving of a beverage (specifically alcoholic in this context, but the definition is "a single serving of a beverage"). Sense 1 fits perfectly.

Sense 2 is about the act of drinking to excess (like "drink was his downfall"). Sense 5 is the act of swallowing. Neither fits "drink for drink".

Thus, the answer is 1.

8. definition=fail to get or obtain | examples=I lost the opportunity to spend a year abroad
9. definition=retreat
10. definition=fail to perceive or to catch with the senses or the mind | examples=I missed that remark

reasoning_content:
We are given a sentence: "But his new-found buddy had matched him drink for drink until he <t>lost</t> count, and the man's eyes were still clear."

We need to identify which numbered sense of "lose" is used. The senses are provided with definitions and examples. We need to return only the number.

Let's analyze the phrase: "lost count". This is an idiomatic expression meaning to fail to keep a tally or to lose track of the number of drinks. The relevant sense would be something like "fail to keep or maintain", but let's see the options.

Sense 1: fail to keep or to maintain; cease to have, either physically or in an abstract sense. Example: She lost her purse... This could fit because he ceased to have/maintan an accurate count. "Lost count" is a common collocation with "lose" meaning to fail to keep track.

Other senses:
2: fail to win (not about count)
3: suffer loss of person (no)
4: misplace (not about count)
5: miss from possessions (no)
6: allow to go out of sight (no)
7: fail to make money (no)
8: fail to get or obtain (could be "lost count" but "count" is not an opportunity; it's maintaining a number)
9: retreat (no)
10: fail to perceive or catch with senses or mind (might fit "lost count" as failing to keep mental track? "fail to perceive or catch with the senses or the mind" - "missed that remark". "Lost count" is more about losing track of a number, not failing to perceive a remark. It's closer to sense 1: fail to maintain an abstract sense, i.e., a count.)
11: be set at a disadvantage (no)

Sense 1 seems the best fit: "fail to keep or maintain; cease to have... in an abstract sense". "Lose count" means you cease to have an accurate count. So answer: 1.

2. definition=the act of counting; reciting numbers in ascending order | examples=the counting continued for several hours
3. definition=a nobleman (in various countries) having rank equal to a British earl

The word in the sentence is "lost count", which means to fail to keep a tally or to forget the number of something. It's an idiom meaning that he could no longer keep track of the number of drinks. This relates to keeping a running total, not the act of counting, nor a nobleman. Sense 1 says "the total number counted". "Lost count" means he lost the total number. So it's sense 1.

Let's double-check: "a blood count" is an example, meaning the total number of blood cells counted. "Lost count" means you lost the total number you were keeping. So 1.

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which sense of "man" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "But his new-found buddy had matched him drink for drink until he lost count, and the man's eyes were still clear."

The word "man" here refers to a specific individual, the "new-found buddy" who is a male person. We need to match this with one of the definitions.

Let's look at the senses:
1. an adult person who is male (as opposed to a woman) - This fits perfectly: "the man" refers to an adult male person, the buddy.
2. someone who serves in the armed forces - No military context.
3. generic use to refer to any human being - Not generic, it's a specific man.
4. any living or extinct member of Hominidae - Too scientific/biological.
5. a male subordinate - Not subordinate.
6. an adult male person with manly character - Could be, but the basic sense is just "adult male". The sentence doesn't necessarily emphasize manly character, just that he's a man.
7. manservant - No.
8. male person who plays a significant role (husband/lover/boyfriend) - Not in this context.
9. Isle of Man - No.
10. game equipment - No.
11. all living human inhabitants - No.

The most straightforward and correct sense is 1: an adult person who is male (as opposed to a woman). The sentence says "the man's eyes" referring back to "his new-found buddy" (a male). So sense 1.

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

Sentence: But his new-found buddy had matched him drink for drink until he lost count, and the man's <t>eyes</t> were still clear.

Senses:
1. definition=the organ of sight
2. definition=good discernment (either visually or as if visually) | examples=she has an eye for fresh talent
3. definition=attention to what is seen | examples=he tried to catch her eye
4. definition=an area that is approximately central within some larger region | examples=it is in the center of town
5. definition=a small hole or loop (as in a needle) | examples=the thread wouldn't go through the eye

reasoning_content:
We are given a sentence: "But his new-found buddy had matched him drink for drink until he lost count, and the man's <t>eyes</t> were still clear."

We need to pick which numbered sense of "eye" is used. The senses:

1. the organ of sight
2. good discernment (either visually or as if visually)
3. attention to what is seen
4. an area that is approximately central within some larger region
5. a small hole or loop (as in a needle)

The sentence says "the man's eyes were still clear." This refers to the physical eyes, the organs of sight, appearing clear (not bloodshot or blurry from drinking). So sense 1 is correct.

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

Sentence: The <t>guy</t> is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself, and looked away from those eyes.

Senses:
1. definition=an informal term for a youth or man | examples=a nice guy
2. definition=an effigy of Guy Fawkes that is burned on a bonfire on Guy Fawkes Day
3. definition=a cable, wire, or rope that is used to brace something (especially a tent)

reasoning_content:
We are asked to identify which numbered sense of "guy" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "The guy is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself, and looked away from those eyes."

We have three senses:
1. an informal term for a youth or man (e.g., "a nice guy")
2. an effigy of Guy Fawkes burned on a bonfire on Guy Fawkes Day
3. a cable, wire, or rope used to brace something (especially a tent)

In the sentence, "guy" refers to a person (a man). "Off his rocker" is an idiom meaning crazy or insane. So "the guy" means "the man". This matches sense 1.

Thus, the correct sense number is 1.

We are asked: "Which numbered sense of 'think' (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense."

Sentence: "The guy is off his rocker, Haney <t>thought</t> to himself, and looked away from those eyes."

We need to match the usage of "thought" in that sentence to one of the provided sense definitions. The word is "thought", past tense of "think". The phrase is: "The guy is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself, and looked away..."

This is a direct internal monologue. Haney is thinking the words "The guy is off his rocker". So "think" is used to mean having a thought in one's mind, silently forming a sentence or idea. Let's check the senses.

1. judge or regard; look upon; judge. Example: "I think he is very smart". In the sentence, "The guy is off his rocker" is a judgment. "think" could be sense 1.
2. expect, believe, or suppose. Example: "I imagine she earned a lot". Possibly, but "off his rocker" is a judgment/opinion.
3. use or exercise the mind or one's power of reason to make inferences... "I've been thinking all day". Not exactly, it's a specific thought.
4. recall knowledge from memory; have a recollection. Not recalling.
5. imagine or visualize. Not exactly, it's an opinion.
6. focus one's attention on a certain state. No.
7. have in mind as a purpose. No.
8. decide by pondering. No.
9. ponder; reflect on. No.
10. dispose the mind in a certain way. "Do you really think so?" This might be similar to sense 1.
11. have or formulate in the mind. Example: "think good thoughts". This is forming a thought in the mind. In the sentence: "The guy is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself". It's exactly formulating a thought in his mind.
12. be capable of conscious thought. No.
13. bring into a given condition by mental preoccupation. No.

Let's compare sense 1 and 11. Sense 1: "judge or regard; look upon; judge" with example "I think he is very smart". The sentence "The guy is off his rocker" is a judgment: "I think he is crazy". So it could be sense 1. Sense 11: "have or formulate in the mind" with example "think good thoughts". But "think to oneself" is often just the act of having a thought, not necessarily judging. However, "thought" in "he thought to himself" is reporting internal speech, which is formulating a sentence in the mind. Many dictionaries would classify "think" as "to have a conscious mind, to reason, or to form thoughts" but "think to oneself" often means simply to say something internally, which is sense 11: have or formulate in the mind.

Let's see the exact wording. "The guy is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself". This is a direct quote of his thought. He is literally thinking those words. "think to oneself" is typically defined as "to have an inner monologue, to say something in one's mind". That matches sense 11: "have or formulate in the mind". Meanwhile sense 1 is "judge or regard; look upon", which is about holding an opinion. While the content of the thought is a judgment, the verb "thought" in this construction is acting as a reporting verb for internal dialogue. Often, in such listings of senses, "think" used with direct speech or internal monologue is a separate sense or the same as "say to oneself", which is "have or formulate in the mind".

Consider the definitions:
1: judge/regard (I think he is smart) - opinion.
11: have/formulate in the mind (think good thoughts) - internal mental activity.

In the sentence, "The guy is off his rocker" is a complete clause that he thought. It's like "He thought, 'The guy is off his rocker'". That's forming that sentence in his mind. I believe sense 11 is most appropriate here. "Think good thoughts" implies forming thoughts, not necessarily judging. Sense 1 is "I think he is smart" where "think" is followed by a clause without quotes, expressing opinion. The sentence given has "thought" with a quotation-like structure (even without quotes): "The guy is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself". It's reporting the exact words he formulated. So sense 11.

Let's double-check if there's any other possibility. Sense 2: expect/believe. "I imagine she earned..." Not really. Sense 9: ponder. Not here. I'll go with 11.

The context: "The guy is off his rocker, Haney thought to himself, and looked away from those <t>eyes</t>." Here, "eyes" clearly refers to the bodily organs, as he is looking away from someone's eyes. This is the literal organ of sight, which is sense 1.

Thus answer: 1.

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

Sentence: Eyes that were clear, but also <t>bright</t> with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them.

We are asked: "Which numbered sense of 'bright' ... is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense."

Sentence: "Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them."

Senses:
1. emitting or reflecting light readily
2. having striking color
3. characterized by quickness and ease in learning
4. having lots of light
5. made smooth and bright by rubbing; reflecting a sheen or glow
6. splendid
7. not made dim or less bright
8. clear and sharp and ringing
9. characterized by happiness or gladness
10. full of promise

The context: eyes that are "bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them." This suggests a metaphorical brightness, perhaps a gleaming or shining quality in the eyes, not literally emitting light but a figurative intensity. It could be sense 1 (emitting or reflecting light) used metaphorically. Or sense 9? But "bright faces" is happiness; here it's "strange intensity... cold fire", not happiness. Sense 6: splendid? Sense 8: clear and sharp and ringing (applies to sound). Sense 1 seems the closest: eyes that seem to emit light, a fiery intensity. The phrase "bright with a strange intensity... cold fire burning behind them" suggests a gleaming or shining quality, like fire. So sense 1 is probably correct. But let's check if any other fits. Sense 5: reflecting a sheen or glow, like polished surface. Eyes could be bright as in shiny, but "fire" points to light. Sense 1: "emitting or reflecting light readily". That fits "cold fire burning behind them". So I'll go with 1.

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

Sentence: Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a <t>strange</t> intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them.

Senses:
1. definition=being definitely out of the ordinary and unexpected; slightly odd or even a bit weird | examples=a strange exaltation that was indefinable
2. definition=not known before | examples=used many strange words
3. definition=relating to or originating in or characteristic of another place or part of the world | examples=foreign nations

reasoning_content:
We are given a sentence with the word "strange" tagged, and we need to determine which numbered sense applies. Let's analyze the sentence: "Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them." The phrase "strange intensity" suggests an intensity that is unusual, out of the ordinary, perhaps slightly odd or weird. The description "a sort of cold fire" emphasizes this unexpected, paradoxical quality.

Now look at the senses:
1. definition=being definitely out of the ordinary and unexpected; slightly odd or even a bit weird | examples=a strange exaltation that was indefinable
2. definition=not known before | examples=used many strange words
3. definition=relating to or originating in or characteristic of another place or part of the world | examples=foreign nations

The sense that fits best is clearly 1: the intensity is out of the ordinary and unexpected, odd. It's not "not known before" (sense 2) as if it's a new word, nor does it relate to foreign origin (sense 3). So the answer is 1.

4. definition=chromatic purity: freedom from dilution with white and hence vivid in hue

We need to choose the sense that fits. The sentence describes eyes with a "strange intensity", a "cold fire burning behind them". This is metaphorical, indicating a high degree of a quality (like focus, passion, emotion). It's not about literal energy or sound magnitude, nor about chromatic purity. The most appropriate sense is 2: "high level or degree; the property of being intense." This covers abstract intensity, like intensity of a stare or emotion.

Thus, answer: 2

Sentence: "Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a strange intensity, a sort of <t>cold</t> fire burning behind them."

The word "cold" is used in the phrase "cold fire". This is an oxymoron, combining "cold" and "fire". The meaning isn't literal low temperature; it's describing an intense, almost paradoxical quality. The fire is "cold", suggesting a fire that burns with intensity but without warmth, perhaps a fierce but emotionless or implacable intensity.

Let's examine the senses:

1. having a low or inadequate temperature... (literal coldness)
2. extended meanings; especially of psychological coldness; without human warmth or emotion (examples: a cold unfriendly nod)
3. having lost freshness through passage of time (a cold trail)
4. (color) giving no sensation of warmth (a cold bluish grey)
5. marked by errorless familiarity (had her lines cold...)
6. lacking originality or spontaneity; no longer new
7. so intense as to be almost uncontrollable (cold fury gripped him)
8. sexually unresponsive
9. without compunction or human feeling (in cold blood)
10. feeling or showing no enthusiasm (a cold audience)
11. unconscious from a blow...
12. of a seeker; far from the object sought
13. lacking the warmth of life (cold in his grave)

The phrase "cold fire" is a figurative expression. It suggests a fire that is intense but lacks warmth, often meaning a passionate intensity that is emotionless, merciless, or detached. It echoes "cold fury" from sense 7: "so intense as to be almost uncontrollable - cold fury gripped him". However, sense 7 is specifically about intensity that is uncontrollable, with "cold" modifying an emotion like fury. "Cold fire" could be similar, indicating an intense, burning quality that is paradoxically cold. But is there a better match? Sense 2: extended meanings; especially of psychological coldness; without human warmth or emotion. That could also fit: a cold fire meaning a fire without warmth, metaphorically without human warmth. But the phrase "cold fire" often denotes an intense but emotionless passion. Let's consider common usage: "cold fire" might refer to a fire that burns with an intense light but no heat, or metaphorically, an intense drive or emotion that is devoid of warmth or compassion. The sentence says: "Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them." This describes eyes that have a burning intensity, but it's a "cold" fire, so it's an intense but unemotional or perhaps ruthless intensity. Sense 7 is specifically "so intense as to be almost uncontrollable", example "cold fury gripped him". That matches "cold fire" as an intense, almost uncontrollable fire. However, "cold fury" is a set phrase, and the definition includes that intensity. But "cold fire" is very similar. Sense 2 is about psychological coldness, without human warmth. "Cold fire" could also mean a fire lacking warmth, i.e., emotionless. Which one is more precise? I need to see if there's a sense that directly defines "cold" as "intense and uncontrollable" as in "cold fury". Sense 7 says: "so intense as to be almost uncontrollable | examples=cold fury gripped him". In "cold fire", the fire is intense, and it's described as cold, meaning it's an intense fire that feels cold. That aligns with sense 7's meaning of intensity. Sense 2 is about being without human warmth or emotion. A "cold unfriendly nod" is emotionless, unfriendly. A "cold fire" burning behind eyes could imply an emotionless intensity, but the fire itself suggests passion. So it's not that the person is without emotion; they have a fire, but it's a cold fire—intense but perhaps controlled, or intense and cruel. "Cold fury" is intense anger. The sentence says "bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire". That directly points to intensity. The word "intensity" is even used: "bright with a strange intensity". So "cold" here likely means "so intense as to be almost uncontrollable" or at least intense and fierce. I think sense 7 is the intended match.

Check all senses: None other fits "cold fire" in this context. Sense 4 is about color, but it's not about color. Sense 2 could be argued, but the emphasis on "intensity" makes 7 the best match.

Thus answer: 7

9. intense adverse criticism

We need to match the sense of "fire" in the sentence. The sentence describes eyes with a "strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them." This is a metaphorical usage, not a literal fire. The phrase "cold fire" suggests an intense emotion or passion, but cold. The closest sense among the numbered definitions is 6: "feelings of great warmth and intensity". Even though it says "cold fire", it's still referring to an intense feeling in the eyes, a burning intensity, which is a metaphorical fire. The examples for 6 include "he spoke with great ardor". So it's the emotional intensity sense. Therefore, the correct sense is 6.

I'll answer with just the number.

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which numbered sense of "burn" is used in the given sentence:

"Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire <t>burning</t> behind them."

The word in question is "burning" as used metaphorically: "a sort of cold fire burning behind them." This describes a metaphorical fire behind the eyes, indicating an intense emotion or passion. The eyes are bright with intensity. "Cold fire" paradoxically suggests a burning passion that is cold, perhaps intense but controlled. So "burning" here is metaphorical, meaning to feel or exhibit strong emotion, passion, or intensity.

Let's examine the senses:

1. destroy by fire - literal fire, not applicable.
2. shine intensely, as if with heat - "The coals were glowing..." Could this be it? The eyes are bright, but the phrase is "a sort of cold fire burning behind them." It's not about literal shining like coals; it's about an inner intensity.
3. undergo combustion - literal, no.
4. cause a sharp or stinging pain - no.
5. cause to burn or combust - no.
6. feel strong emotion, especially anger or passion - examples: "She was burning with anger." This fits perfectly. The "cold fire burning behind them" suggests a strong emotion or passion, a metaphorical burning.
7. cause to undergo combustion - no.
8. burn at the stake - no.
9. spend money - no.
10. feel hot or painful - "My eyes are burning" - this is physical sensation, not metaphorical passion. The sentence says "Eyes that were clear, but also bright with a strange intensity, a sort of cold fire burning behind them." It's not saying the person's eyes themselves feel hot or painful; it's describing a metaphorical fire behind the eyes, an intensity. So 10 is literal physical sensation, while 6 is emotional.
11. cauterize - no.
12. sunburn - no.
13. duplicate data - no.
14. use up energy - no.
15. burn with heat, fire, or radiation - literal.

So sense 6 is the correct one: "feel strong emotion, especially anger or passion". This aligns with "strange intensity", "cold fire". Therefore, answer is 6.

We need to choose the sense that best matches "noticed" in "Why hadn't he noticed it before?". "Noticed" here means perceived, became aware of. Sense 2 is "notice or perceive", with example "She noted that someone was following her". That seems to be the exact meaning. Sense 1 is about discovering/detecting, which is similar but notice is more about perception. However, sense 2 says "notice or perceive" which directly matches the word "notice". Let's check definitions: Sense 1 is "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of". Sense 2 is "notice or perceive". The sentence uses "noticed", which is the verb "notice" meaning to perceive or become aware of. So sense 2 is the direct match. Sense 3 is about commenting. Sense 4 is about acknowledging someone. So the answer should be 2.

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

Sentence: No, the man was not <t>drunk</t>

Senses:
1. definition=stupefied or excited by a chemical substance (especially alcohol) | examples=a noisy crowd of intoxicated sailors
2. definition=as if under the influence of alcohol | examples=felt intoxicated by her success

reasoning_content:
We are given a sentence: "No, the man was not <t>drunk</t>". We need to select which numbered sense of "drunk" is being used. Two senses are provided:

1. stupefied or excited by a chemical substance (especially alcohol) | example: a noisy crowd of intoxicated sailors
2. as if under the influence of alcohol | example: felt intoxicated by her success

The sentence says "the man was not drunk", which implies literal intoxication by alcohol (or a chemical substance). There's no metaphorical context like "drunk with success". So sense 1 is the correct one.

The answer should be just the number.

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

Sentence: He <t>wondered</t> how he got tied up with this stranger.

Senses:
1. definition=have a wish or desire to know something | examples=He wondered who had built this beautiful church
2. definition=place in doubt or express doubtful speculation | examples=I wonder whether this was the right thing to do
3. definition=be amazed at | examples=We marvelled at the child's linguistic abilities

reasoning_content:
We are asked to identify which numbered sense of "wonder" is used in the sentence: "He wondered how he got tied up with this stranger." The senses are:

1. have a wish or desire to know something (example: He wondered who had built this beautiful church)
2. place in doubt or express doubtful speculation (example: I wonder whether this was the right thing to do)
3. be amazed at (example: We marvelled at the child's linguistic abilities)

The sentence "He wondered how he got tied up with this stranger" can be interpreted. "Wondered how" typically means he was curious about the manner in which he got involved. This is a desire to know something, so sense 1 seems appropriate. Sense 2 is about expressing doubt, i.e., I wonder whether... but the sentence is wondering "how", which is asking for an explanation, not expressing doubt about whether it was right. Sense 3 is about amazement. So it's sense 1.

reasoning_content:
We need to identify which sense of "get" corresponds to the sentence: "He wondered how he got tied up with this stranger." Specifically, "got" is used in "got tied up with". The phrase "got tied up with" likely means "became involved with" or "became entangled with". It's a state or condition: he became tied up with this stranger. So "get" + past participle often forms a passive meaning or a change of state. "Get tied up" means to become tied up. Looking at the senses:

1. come into possession... no.
2. enter or assume a certain state or condition | examples: He became annoyed... That's exactly "get" + adjective/past participle indicating entering a state: He got tied up -> He became tied up. So sense 2 seems the fit.
3. cause to move; cause to be in a certain position or condition. But here it's not causative; he got tied up (he himself entered a state). Not "He got someone tied up". So 3 is not correct.
Check if any other sense might fit: Sense 4: receive a specified treatment (abstract) – might be, but "tied up" is a state. Sense 10: cause to do; cause to act, but no. Sense 2 definition exactly: "enter or assume a certain state or condition" with example "He became annoyed when he heard the bad news". This matches the use of "get" as a copula indicating a change of state. So number 2.

Thus answer: 2.

Sentence: He wondered how he got tied up with this <t>stranger</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found

We need to determine which sense fits. "He wondered how he got tied up with this stranger." "got tied up with" means became involved or associated with. So the stranger is someone he doesn't know, an individual he is not acquainted with. Sense 2 fits. Sense 1 implies someone who doesn't belong in an environment, like a stranger in a town. Here it's about personal acquaintance. So the answer is 2.

Sentence: But, of course, he <t>remembered</t> now.

Senses:
1. recall knowledge from memory; have a recollection | I can't remember saying any such thing
2. keep in mind for attention or consideration | Remember the Alamo
3. recapture the past; indulge in memories | he remembered how he used to pick flowers
4. show appreciation to | He remembered her in his will

7. exercise, or have the power of, memory | After the shelling, many people lost the ability to remember
8. call to remembrance; keep alive the memory of someone or something, as in a ceremony | We remembered the 50th anniversary of the liberation

We need to see which sense fits "But, of course, he remembered now." The sentence implies that he had a recollection of something that he previously forgot, now he recalls it. It's "recall knowledge from memory; have a recollection". That's sense 1.

Check others: 2 is about keeping in mind for attention, 3 is indulging in memories, 4 is showing appreciation, 5 prayer, 6 greeting, 7 general ability to remember, 8 commemorating. Context suggests he remembered something he had previously forgotten. So sense 1.

Output should be only the number.

reasoning_content:
We need to determine which sense of "hour" is used in the sentence: "It was blurred, after two <t>hours</t> of steady drinking, but the occasion of it came back to him."

The senses provided:
1. a period of time equal to 1/24th of a day (e.g., the job will take more than an hour)
2. clock time (e.g., the hour is getting late)
3. a special and memorable period (e.g., it was their finest hour)
4. distance measured by the time taken to cover it (e.g., we live an hour from the airport)

Sentence analysis: "after two hours of steady drinking" – This refers to a duration of time, specifically a period of time equal to two units of the 1/24th of a day measure. It's not referring to clock time (like "the hour is late"), not a special memorable period (like "finest hour"), and not a distance. So it matches sense 1.

Thus, the answer is 1.

We are asked: "Which numbered sense of 'steady' (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense."

Sentence: "It was blurred, after two hours of <t>steady</t> drinking, but the occasion of it came back to him."

Senses:
1. not subject to change or variation especially in behavior | examples=a steady beat
2. not liable to fluctuate or especially to fall | examples=stocks are still firm
3. securely in position; not shaky | examples=held the ladder steady
4. marked by firm determination or resolution; not shakable | examples=firm convictions
5. relating to a person who does something regularly | examples=a regular customer
6. not easily excited or upset | examples=steady nerves

The phrase is "steady drinking". This means continuous, unceasing drinking. It implies drinking without stopping, constant. Which sense matches that?

Sense 1: "not subject to change or variation especially in behavior" - example: a steady beat. This fits "steady drinking" meaning continuous, constant, unvarying. Drinking steadily, without pause or variation.

Sense 5: "relating to a person who does something regularly" - example: a regular customer. That's about a person being a regular, not an activity being continuous. "Steady drinking" describes the action, not a person who drinks regularly (though it could be interpreted that way, but the context "after two hours of steady drinking" means continuous drinking over those two hours). So it's more about the unceasing nature, not the habitual nature. Sense 1 is the best match: not subject to change or variation. The drinking was steady, meaning constant, unvarying.

Thus the answer is 1.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of consuming liquids
2. definition=the act of drinking alcoholic beverages to excess | examples=drink was his downfall

We need to determine which sense fits the sentence. The sentence says "after two hours of steady drinking", and the context suggests it's likely alcohol because it's blurred afterwards, implying intoxication. "Steady drinking" in this context typically means drinking alcohol. Sense 2 is about drinking alcoholic beverages to excess. Sense 1 is just consuming liquids, which wouldn't normally cause things to be "blurred". So sense 2 is correct.

Senses:

2. definition=an individual that one is not acquainted with"

We need to decide whether the word "stranger" in this sentence means "anyone who does not belong in the environment" or "an individual that one is not acquainted with." The sentence is describing a person crossing the street. The context does not explicitly say the person is unknown to the observer, but typically "stranger" in such a narrative means someone the narrator (or characters) do not know. There's no indication that the person does not belong in the environment. They are crossing the street, which is a normal environment for anyone. So it's sense 2: an individual that one is not acquainted with.

Thus answer: 2

Sentence: "The stranger, his <t>head</t> seemingly sunk in thought, started to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection."

Senses: list given.

We need to find which sense fits here. The sentence says "his head seemingly sunk in thought". That means his mind was sunk in thought. The sense of head that corresponds to "seat of thought, mind" is sense 3: "that which is responsible for one's thoughts and feelings; the seat of the faculty of reason | examples=his mind wandered". So the definition matches "his head ... sunk in thought" i.e., his mind was preoccupied. Thus, the numbered sense is 3.

We are asked: "Which numbered sense of 'thought' ... is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense."

Sentence: "The stranger, his head seemingly sunk in thought, started to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection."

We have four senses:

1. the content of cognition; the main thing you are thinking about (examples: it was not a good idea)
2. the process of using your mind to consider something carefully (examples: thinking always made him frown)
3. the organized beliefs of a period or group or individual (examples: 19th century thought)
4. a personal belief or judgment that is not founded on proof or certainty (examples: my opinion differs from yours)

The phrase "sunk in thought" means deeply engaged in the act of thinking, pondering, or considering something. That aligns with sense 2: the process of using your mind to consider something carefully. The example given for sense 2 is "thinking always made him frown", which matches the idea of being in the process of thinking. Sense 1 is about the specific content: "the main thing you are thinking about". Here, "sunk in thought" doesn't specify the content, just that he is thinking. So it's the process. Sense 3 is about collective beliefs, sense 4 is about a personal belief/opinion. So the answer is 2.

We are asked: "Which numbered sense of 'start' (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below?" Sentence: "The stranger, his head seemingly sunk in thought, <t>started</t> to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection."

We need to find the sense that fits the use of "started" in this context. The phrase is "started to cross the street". So "started" here means "began" or "took the first step" in the action of crossing. It's not about moving suddenly in surprise (sense 7: move or jump suddenly, as if in surprise or alarm). Context: "his head seemingly sunk in thought" might suggest he was deep in thought, but then he started to cross the street. Could it be interpreted as he started suddenly? "Start" can mean to make a sudden movement from surprise. However, "started to cross the street" typically means "began to cross". The phrase "started to cross" is a common construction meaning "began crossing". Let's verify the senses.

Sense 1: definition=take the first step or steps in carrying out an action | examples=We began working at dawn. That fits: "started to cross the street" = took the first steps in carrying out the action of crossing the street.

Sense 7: move or jump suddenly, as if in surprise or alarm. Example: She startled when I walked into the room. If it were "started" in that sense, it would be "The stranger started" (without "to cross") or "started at the noise". But here it's "started to cross the street", which indicates the beginning of an action. So sense 1 is the correct one.

Thus the answer is 1.

We are asked to identify which sense of "cross" is used in the sentence: "The stranger, his head seemingly sunk in thought, started to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection."

We have a list of numbered senses with definitions and examples. We need to return the number of the correct sense.

Let's analyze the sentence: "started to cross the street". This means to move from one side of the street to the other, traveling across it.

Now let's check the provided senses:

1. definition=travel across or pass over | examples=The caravan covered almost 100 miles each day
   - "travel across" fits perfectly: crossing the street means traveling across it.
2. definition=meet at a point
   - Not relevant.
3. definition=hinder or prevent (the efforts, plans, or desires) of | examples=What ultimately frustrated every challenger was Ruth's amazing September surge
   - "cross" can mean to oppose, but not here.
4. definition=fold so as to resemble a cross | examples=she crossed her legs
   - Not relevant.
5. definition=to cover or extend over an area or time period; , | examples=Rivers traverse the valley floor
   - Could be similar but "cross the street" is more about traveling across than covering an area.
6. definition=meet and pass | examples=the trains crossed
   - Could be used for paths crossing, but "cross the street" implies moving across, not two things meeting and passing each other. The stranger is crossing the street, not meeting another entity and passing it.
7. definition=trace a line through or across | examples=cross your `t'
   - Not relevant.
8. definition=breed animals or plants using parents of different races and varieties | examples=cross a horse and a donkey
   - Not relevant.

Sense 1 is "travel across or pass over". This exactly matches "cross the street". The example given for sense 1 is "The caravan covered almost 100 miles each day", which uses "covered" as a synonym, but "travel across or pass over" is the definition. "Cross" in the sentence means to travel across the street.

Therefore, the correct sense number is 1.

We need to pick which sense matches the usage. The sentence says "started to cross the street". This refers to crossing the part of the thoroughfare where vehicles travel, i.e., the roadway between sidewalks. Sense 2 says: "the part of a thoroughfare between the sidewalks; the part of the thoroughfare on which vehicles travel" and gives example "be careful crossing the street". That's a perfect match. Sense 1 is the whole thoroughfare including sidewalks, lined with buildings. But "cross the street" typically means crossing the roadway, not the entire area with buildings. So answer is 2.
