Context:
As a matter of fact, he wouldn't have cared at all if the guy had been hit. Actually, he regretted having opened his mouth when the truck came to a stop and the angry driver jumped down from the cab and walked back toward them. By then, the stranger was thanking Haney profusely and had one arm around his shoulders as if he were an old friend. So the driver started to curse at both of them as if they had been in a plot together to ruin his safe-driving record. Then the man he saved turned and looked squarely into the truck driver's face, without saying a word. Very suddenly, the driver stopped swearing at them, turned on his <t>heel</t> and went back to his truck. Haney hadn't given it much thought at the time.

**My Thought Process on "Heel" in Context**

Okay, the target word is "heel," and the context is "...turned on his heel and went back to his truck." Immediately, I recognize this as a fixed expression: "turn on one's heel(s)," which means a sharp turn. My first thought is, does "heel" refer to the foot or the shoe? Let's check WordNet.

I see two senses: the back part of the human foot (heel%1:08:00::) and the bottom of a shoe or boot (heel%1:06:00::). Hmm, "turn on one's heel" seems to lean towards the literal meaning of pivoting on the back of the foot, even if the person is wearing shoes. Does WordNet actually map this idiom to either the foot or the shoe?

Now, I'm thinking, "heel" in this phrase specifically refers to the heel of the foot or the heel of the shoe. Let's look at the definitions again. Definition 2 is the back part of the human foot, and Definition 1 is the bottom of a shoe or boot. "Turn on one's heel" seems to be more about the "human foot" sense or maybe the foot in a more general sense.

I'm mentally searching WordNet now. Under "heel%1:08:00::," the back part of the human foot, is there an example of "turned on his heel"? Let me try to remember and picture the phrase.

Ah, if we consider "turn on one's heel," it usually means pivoting on the heel of the foot. So, I'm leaning toward selecting sense 2, the back part of the human foot.

Wait, let me double-check. The WordNet entry for "heel" has two main senses: the bottom of a shoe or boot and the back part of the human foot. Is "turn on one's heel" listed as an idiom? Probably not as a direct entry, but the pivot is the heel of the foot (or maybe the shoe). Since it's a body-part idiom, like "spin on one's heel," sense 2 makes the most sense. This is because the anatomical part perfectly fits the literal action of using the heel (body part) to pivot.

I'm confident; I'll select sense 2.

**Analyzing the Context of "Truck"**

Okay, so the target is "truck" in this sentence: "Very suddenly, the driver stopped swearing at them, turned on his heel and went back to his truck." Immediately, I'm honing in on the clues. The key here is the driver's actions. He stops, exits the cab, and presumably, is concerned about safe driving. This strongly suggests the word refers to an automotive vehicle used for hauling.

I'm quickly dismissing the possibility of a hand truck or anything else that doesn't fit the scenario of a driver abruptly leaving something. The context paints a picture of a larger vehicle, the driver stepping away and towards others. It is the type of vehicle that has a cab.

Now, let's look at the candidates. Candidate 1, "truck%1:06:00::", with the definition "an automotive vehicle suitable for hauling" and synonym "motortruck," is an obvious fit. The actions of the driver are consistent with this meaning. Candidate 2, "truck%1:06:01::", which defines a hand truck, is clearly incorrect. The context does not suggest that the driver is interacting with a hand cart.

**Analyzing the Verb "Give" in Context**

Okay, so the surface form is "given," which, in this sentence, is the past participle of "give." My task is to determine the correct sense of "give" in the phrase "Haney hadn't given it much thought."

The context immediately suggests that "dedicate" or "devote" is the right direction, which I am quite confident of. Let's delve into the senses. Ah, sense 10 looks promising: *dedicate*; *pay*, *devote* are listed as synonyms. And look at this; the example sentence includes “*give thought to*”. That's spot on! The context uses "thought" and it aligns perfectly with the nuance of sense 10.

Just to be thorough, I'll quickly eliminate other senses. Sense 5, which encompasses conveying something like a compliment or attention, is clearly incorrect. Sense 18 also describes *dedicate*, *consecrate*, etc., but I am confident in sense 10, as the example fits like a glove.

Now to verify:
sense_key=give%2:31:02::
definition=dedicate
synonyms=pay, devote
examples=give thought to; give priority to

This confirms that the surface form "given" is used in the sense of dedicating much thought, and therefore my original sense of "dedicate much thought" is the intended meaning. Done.

**Analyzing the Nuances of "Thought"**

Okay, so the key phrase is "given it much thought," and I need to figure out what "thought" means here. Basically, Haney didn't *think* about it very much, didn't give it careful consideration. My mind immediately goes to the act of "thinking," that process of using your mind to carefully consider something. Let's run through the potential senses.

I'm considering these senses: first, the actual *content* of thinking, the "idea" itself. Second, and this is the strongest contender, the *process* of thinking carefully – that's the "thinking" or "thought process" itself. Third, organized beliefs. Fourth, a personal belief or judgment, an "opinion."

"Give it much thought" clearly leans towards the process of thinking. WordNet, I believe, usually groups "give thought to" under that process-oriented sense.

Looking closer at Sense 2, the "process of using your mind to consider something carefully." The synonyms are "thinking," "thought process." Examples like "she paused for thought" fit perfectly. Sense 1, the "idea" sense, is more about the content, like the "main thing you are thinking about."

Therefore, when we unpack "Haney hadn't given it much thought," it becomes: He hadn't considered it carefully. Sense 2 is the best fit, undoubtedly. That's the correct interpretation.

**Analyzing the Lemma "Recall" in Context**

Okay, so the lemma I'm working with is "recall," and the specific form in the text is "recalled." The context is intriguing, with Haney reflecting on an event. He *didn't* dwell on it at the time, but now he "recalled it very clearly," and wonders about the truck driver's perspective. Immediately, my mind jumps to the core meaning: remembering, recollecting something from memory.

Let's break down the senses to confirm. Sense 1, "recall knowledge from memory; have a recollection" – that seems like a perfect fit, with synonyms like "remember," "retrieve," and "recollect." Haney is clearly doing exactly that; he's bringing the event back to mind.

The other senses are worth a quick glance, just to be thorough. Sense 2, "go back to something earlier," is related, but not quite the same emphasis. Sense 3, "call to mind" (echo), is also relevant as an aspect of the act of recall, but it doesn't quite capture the full process here. Sense 4, "summon to return," is out of place, as is Sense 6, "make unavailable; bar from sale or distribution," and Sense 7, "cause to be returned." And finally, Sense 5, "cause one's (or someone else's) thoughts or attention to return from a reverie or digression", is also potentially applicable, if considering the contrast between Haney's present reflective state and his lack of thought at the time.

Given the text, Sense 1 is the clear dominant interpretation. Haney's action is fundamentally about the retrieval of a memory, the act of recollection after a period of non-consideration.

**Deconstructing the Nuances of "Wondered"**

Okay, so the task at hand is to pinpoint the exact meaning of "wondered" in this specific sentence: "Now he recalled it very clearly, and wondered what the truck driver had seen in those eyes to make him back off." Right, let's break this down systematically, as I always do.

My initial instinct is to consider all the possible interpretations, to ensure I'm getting the core of it. I'm thinking about the standard dictionary definitions. There's the sense of *inquiring*, the desire to *know* something. Then there's the element of *doubt*, the "wonder whether" scenario, a hesitant speculation. And finally, the feeling of *amazement* or *marvel*.

Looking closely at the context, specifically "Haney wondered what the truck driver had seen," I see a strong suggestion of a desire to *understand*. He's not doubting, and he's not expressing amazement. He's curious. He *wants* to know the reason. The phrase "what the truck driver had seen" is the key.

This points directly to sense number one, to *have a wish or desire to know something*. This is the perfect fit. The example they give, "He wondered who had built this beautiful church," is practically identical in its structure and intent. It's a clear inquiry. Sense two, using "wonder" to show doubt, doesn't align at all. And sense three is about amazement, which doesn't fit either. So, I am confident that my conclusion is the correct one.

**Deconstructing the "See" in "What Did He See?"**

Okay, so the sentence is: "Now he recalled it very clearly, and wondered what the truck driver had seen in those eyes to make him back off." I'm immediately drawn to the verb "seen." In this context, it's not a literal sighting of something; it's about interpreting what was communicated by the look in the man's eyes. The truck driver was *affected* by this "look," so what did he *perceive*?

My initial instinct, and I'm going through the dictionary senses in my head, is to lean towards "perceive by sight" (sense 1). The idea is that the driver *visually* registered something significant in those eyes. It's a look, a visual expression. Alternatively, it could be "make sense of; assign a meaning to" (sense 24) - which I had originally considered. But it is unlikely.

But let's clarify that the "seen" is not about a physical object the truck driver was looking at, but a type of expression he was reading. So, in "what the truck driver had seen in those eyes," he *saw* a "look." This is still perceived by sight.

Therefore, sense 1 ("perceive by sight") really seems the most fitting here. The truck driver registered an expression. I'm going to stick with sense 1.

**Analyzing the "Eyes" Context**

Okay, so the target word is "eyes," and the surrounding text is "...wondered what the truck driver had seen in those eyes to make him back off." Right away, it's clear we're dealing with the literal, physical *organ* of sight here. Not some metaphorical interpretation, no, this is about a direct visual experience.

Let's quickly run through the likely senses to be sure. I've got my list:

1.  *eye%1:08:00:: | the organ of sight | oculus, optic* - This is the primary contender, the anatomical definition.
2.  *eye%1:09:00:: | good discernment* - While discernment *could* be relevant, it's less direct here. The truck driver *saw* something.
3.  *eye%1:09:01:: | attention to what is seen* - Again, related but secondary. It's the physical act of seeing that's critical.
4.  *eye%1:15:00:: | an area that is approximately central* - This is completely irrelevant in this context. No.
5.  *eye%1:06:00:: | a small hole or loop* - Nope, not applicable.

Given the phrase "what the truck driver *had seen in those eyes*," the logical and most plausible sense is definitely sense 1: the physical organs of sight. It's a straightforward case of direct observation and the resulting reaction. Nothing too complex, just a clear choice.

**Analyzing the Senses of "Make" in Context**

Okay, here's what I'm thinking. The target word is "make," and the surface form is, well, "make." The context is: "Now he recalled it very clearly, and wondered what the truck driver had seen in those eyes to make him back off." I need to determine the correct sense of "make" here.

My initial thought is to consider a few senses. I'm focusing on two particularly relevant ones. Sense 8: "compel or make somebody or something to act in a certain way," and Sense 4: "cause to do; cause to act in a specified manner." Sense 4 also includes synonyms like "induce," "stimulate," "cause," "have," and "get."

I'm thinking, "what did the truck driver *see* to *make* him back off?" That "make" there, seems to be about *causing* an action.

Now, let's look at the WordNet examples. Sense 8 includes examples like, "People cannot be made to integrate..." and "Heat makes you sweat." Sense 4 gives examples like, "The ads induced me to buy a VCR" and "My children finally got me to buy a computer." Those feel quite different.

"Heat makes you sweat" feels more like a direct, almost involuntary causation or a strong compulsion. Sense 4 tends towards *persuasion* or *inducement*. I'm leaning toward "compel or make somebody or something to act in a certain way" given the context.

Let me think… "make him back off." That feels like he was *compelled* to back off, that it was a strong reaction.

I'm also considering other senses, like Sense 2 which has to do with giving certain properties, but that doesn't feel right given the action-oriented context.

Let's check the examples more carefully. Sense 4 example: "My wife made me buy a new sofa." That fits with the sense that is related to induce. However, the examples in Sense 8 feel stronger: "People cannot be made to integrate..." "Heat makes you sweat."

Now, back to the context: "what the truck driver had seen in those eyes to *make* him back off." The eyes *forced* the action. We are talking about something very direct and forceful here. It's a look that "can call a bluff without saying a word," a strong effect, like intimidation. It feels like sense 8, compelling the action.

Now, wait a minute, the core distinction between the two is compulsion versus inducement. I think it is compulsion. *make%2:36:15::* (compel) vs *make%2:32:00::* (induce).

Okay, after thinking through the example again I'm sure it is Sense 8. That "make" strongly implies *compelling* or *forcing* the driver to back off. It isn't mere inducement; it's a stronger form of causation. "Made him back off" strongly implies compulsion. I am confident I can select 8.

**Analyzing the Lemma "sort" in Context**

Okay, so the lemma I'm working with is "sort," and the surface form is, unsurprisingly, also "sort." The context is "It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff without saying a word." I need to determine the correct sense of "sort" here.

Let's dive into the candidate senses. I've got a few possibilities. Sense 1, with the key `sort%1:09:00::`, defines "sort" as "a category of things distinguished by some common characteristic or quality," essentially a "kind," "form," or "variety." The examples given are useful: "sculpture is a form of art," or "what kinds of desserts are there?"

Sense 2, keyed as `sort%1:07:00::`, indicates "an approximate definition or example." Think "a sort of magenta dress" or "a creamy sort of dessert thing." This feels less likely, but I need to keep it in mind.

Then there's Sense 3, `sort%1:18:00::`, which refers to "a person of a particular character or nature." Examples include "what sort of person is he?" or "he's a good sort." Definitely not fitting in this context.

Finally, there's Sense 4, keyed as `sort%1:22:00::`, which means "an operation that segregates items into groups according to a specified criterion," essentially "sorting." Clearly not it.

Okay, back to the context. "Sort of look." What does that mean? It refers to a type or kind of look, a category of looks. The "look" is the thing, and "sort" is describing the category or kind it belongs to.

Now, considering the senses again, I think I've got it. Sense 1 hits the mark exactly. It defines "sort" as "a category of things distinguished by some common characteristic or quality," and that fits perfectly. "The sort of look" means a particular kind or type of look. It's that clear. It's equivalent to saying "the kind of look." Sense 1 it is!

**Analyzing the Nuances of "Look" in Context**

Okay, the target is "look," and the surface form is just "look." Let's dive into this sentence: "... It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff without saying a word." Right away, I'm thinking about the non-literal meanings here. The text describes a scenario where a man's expression has a powerful effect on a truck driver. The text mentions the man looked into the truck driver's face, and the truck driver stopped swearing, and then we have the specific phrasing "wondered what the truck driver had seen in those eyes... It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff..."

I've got a few candidate senses in mind. There's the visual act of looking (sense 2), the general appearance (sense 3 and 4), and then, importantly, the expression on someone's face – the "feelings expressed" (sense 1). In this context, it seems clear the focus is on the *effect* of the man's expression, what the truck driver *saw* in his eyes, which *influenced* the truck driver's behavior. I'm leaning heavily towards the "facial expression" sense (sense 1).

I need to confirm this. I'm going back to sense 1 and sense 2. Let me check the examples associated with each. Sense 1 has "a look of triumph." Okay, that fits. The phrase in the text "It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff..." very much fits a facial expression. Sense 2 is "the act of directing the eyes toward something and perceiving it visually". "his look was fixed on her eyes". Right, so that's a direct gaze. The context here is a bit more figurative, not just the act of looking.

Now I'm sure. I'm going back to the full sentence.
"wondered what the truck driver had seen in those eyes to make him back off. It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff without saying a word."

Yes, the eyes are key. The phrase "the sort of look" is what cements it. We're not talking about a casual glance; we're talking about a *specific kind* of expression. Phrases like "give someone a look," or "a dirty look," or "a look of defiance" all clearly point to sense 1. The nuance here is all about the *emotional impact* communicated through the eyes and facial expression. Sense 1 is the clear winner.

**Analyzing the Nuances of "Bluff" in Context**

Okay, so the target is "bluff" – surface form and lemma match, that simplifies things a bit. The context, "It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff without saying a word," is key. Let's see, we have three candidate senses: a steep bank, a pretense of strength, and the poker-specific act of bluffing.

The phrase "call a bluff" is definitely metaphorical here. It's not a literal "high steep bank" situation, obviously. While the phrase *did* originate from poker (sense 3), the way it's used in this context isn't strictly limited to a card game, so we need to zoom out a bit. It’s more about calling someone's *pretense* – that they are tougher or more confident than they really are, much like the truck driver acting tough. That aligns perfectly with sense 2: "pretense that your position is stronger than it really is."

"Call a bluff," by definition, typically involves the pretense itself (sense 2) or the act of creating that pretense (sense 3). Going back to the definitions: sense 2, “pretense that your position is stronger than it really is,” makes the most sense. Sense 3, "the act of bluffing in poker," is just too specific for the general scenario described.

Let's do a quick confirmation loop. We're dealing with the truck driver's cursing—that's the "bluff." The man's look is "calling the bluff" and, therefore, making him back off. Sense 2 nails it, clearly. Sense 2 is the correct interpretation.

**Analyzing "Saying" in Context**

Okay, so the target is "saying," and the context is "...call a bluff without saying a word." My initial thought is to zero in on the phrase "saying a word." This immediately points to a sense of expressing something through words – or, conversely, the *absence* of such expression.

Looking at the candidate senses, I'm drawn to several, particularly:

1.  "express in words"
2.  "utter aloud"
3.  "communicate or express nonverbally."

The phrase "without saying a word" strongly suggests a lack of verbal communication. I quickly consider whether the usual sense of "saying a word" – expressing something in words ("say%2:32:00::") – or "uttering aloud" ("say%2:32:15::").

I then query WordNet for "say a word" for more clues, confirming that the most common interpretation aligns with expressing something in words – effectively 'speaking'. The synonyms for this sense – "state," "tell" – all fit this idea of conveying information through language.

I re-examine the example sentences: "He said that he wanted to marry her" (Sense 1), and "She said 'Hello' to everyone in the office" (Sense 8). "Without saying a word" implies the absence of *either* of these actions. However, the *core* meaning seems closer to *expressing* something.

I test another context: "He left without saying a word." Again, the interpretation of Sense 1 - "express in words" seems best. The "say" definition in WordNet, with its variety of senses, confirms this.

I'm now zeroing in on Sense 1 as the strongest candidate. I think about whether "say a word" maps to expressing something in words (stating, telling). It does!

Looking at synonymous expressions like "speak a word" and "utter a word" further solidifies this understanding. Now, I'm very confident. "Saying" in this context is best defined as 'expressing (something) in words'.

The context: "look that can call a bluff without saying a word." This means "call a bluff without *expressing* it in words". My selection is Sense 1. The primary sense of "say" is to express something. I need to select Sense 1.

I don't find any idiomatic meaning of "say a word." Sense 1 is the most frequent and general sense of 'say'. Sense 1 it is.

**Analyzing the "word" Sense in Context**

Okay, so the target word is "word" in the phrase "...without saying a word." The goal is to determine which sense of "word" is being used here. First, let's consider the candidate senses. Sense 1, a unit of language, and sense 2, a brief statement, immediately come to mind. Now, I see "he didn't say a word about it" as an example which seems closely related to sense 2.

But hold on, let's re-examine that example: "he hardly said ten words all morning". This fits sense 1. Hmmm... now looking at the sentence "It must have been the sort of look that can call a bluff without saying a word." What does "say a word" mean here, really? Does it mean "making any statement" or "uttering a unit of language"?

My initial thought is that "without saying a word" means without making any statement. But let's consult WordNet to confirm my intuition. According to WordNet, "without saying a word" is strongly associated with both sense 1 and sense 2. Let's dig deeper: "a brief statement" (sense 2). But in the context of the sentence, "without saying a word" means... absolutely silent.

WordNet gives "word" as in "he didn't say a word about it" the sense key word%1:10:03::. Let's look at sense 1: "a unit of language that native speakers can identify". The example here makes it sound like sense 1, as in "he hardly said ten words all morning". Let me go back to the text and consider if it's "without uttering a unit of language."

Okay, let's look at sense 2 again. Examples: "he didn't say a word about it". Synonyms: None. The example emphasizes a lack of a *brief* statement. "Without saying a word" usually suggests not uttering a single unit of language (sense 1). So, "saying a word" is a fixed phrase, it could be sense 2, but here? No, "a word or two" points to sense 5. I will re-read the examples, let's see, sense 2 is "he didn't say a word about it." And sense 1 is, "he hardly said ten words all morning".

"Without saying a word" sounds like not uttering a unit of language. Could "without saying a word" be mapped to sense 2? But in WordNet, sense 2 is "a brief statement: he didn't say a word about it", and "without saying a word" sounds more like silence. "Say a word" in "without saying a word" is literally "uttering a single word." So, I need to look at similar cases.

Ah, actually, sense 1 has an example: "words are the blocks from which sentences are made; he hardly said ten words all morning". This makes more sense! Sense 2 has an example: "he didn't say a word about it". In the text: "call a bluff without saying a word." This matches "say a word" -> utter a unit of language.

If "say a word" means "make a brief statement", then does "without making a brief statement" vs. "without uttering a single unit of language" make sense? The expression often implies sense 1. If someone "didn't say a word about it," it implies they didn't mention it. "Without saying a word" implies keeping completely silent. "Word" in "without saying a word" is literal - not even one word. I think sense 1 is more appropriate.

Wait! In many WSD datasets, "without saying a word" is tagged as sense 1. However, what if it means "a brief statement?" Here, it seems like he literally didn't speak a single word. So this seems to match sense 1.

Let's think of the phrase "say a word." "Without saying a word" equals zero words! If sense 1 is "a unit of language," "a word" equals one unit of language. Does "without saying a word" imply not "making a brief statement"? I think sense 1 is appropriate because he literally didn't utter a word.

Let me double-check sense 1 vs. sense 2 in SemCor. In SemCor, "say a word" is often tagged as word%1:10:00:: (sense 1). Based on that, I'll guess sense 1.

No! Wait, look at sense 2: "he didn't say a word about it" - here "a word" means a statement

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Light" in Context**

Okay, so the task is to figure out the meaning of "light" in the sentence "When the light went their way, they went on across the street." Straightforward enough – the target lemma is "light," the surface form is "light." The context immediately screams traffic light, or pedestrian signal.

Let's quickly run through the senses to see which ones apply. Hmm, we have the usual suspects: visible light, light source, luminosity, illuminated area, perspective, and so on. But, thinking more directly, we get to the more specific senses such as spiritual awareness, visual effect in pictures, a person regarded fondly, abundant light, mental understanding, merriment expressed by brightness, public awareness, divine presence, and lighter. Some are obviously off, but we have to be sure.

Aha! Sense 14 – "a visual warning signal" – that's the one. Examples provided solidify the connection: "they saw the light of the beacon; there was a light at every corner." Bingo. "When the light went their way" clearly implies the signal turned green, indicating it's safe to proceed. It’s a classic example of this type of sense, so it seems correct to me. That it's related to the WordNet sense light%1:10:00:: ("a visual warning signal") with the example including a light at every corner is the final clincher. Sense 14 it is.

**Analyzing "Way" in Context**

Okay, so the target lemma is "way" and the surface form is "way". The context is "When the light went their way, they went on across the street." Right away, I'm thinking, "went their way" is probably idiomatic. It seems to mean "went in their direction" or maybe, "changed to favor them."

Let's drill down. Since it's about a light, a *traffic* light, I think "light went their way" refers to the traffic light turning in their direction, a green light. "Went their way" then probably implies "went their direction". Does it mean "when the traffic light turned green for them?" Yes, that seems right.

So, is "way" here referring to direction (sense 3: a line leading to a place or point)? Or is it something like "favorable condition," as in "things are going my way"? "Went their way" is likely idiomatic, and in this specific case, it's the light *literally* "went their way".

Let's check the senses. Sense 3: `way%1:15:00::` | definition=a line leading to a place or point | synonyms=direction | examples=he looked the other direction; didn't know the way home. Hmm, that looks promising, and the synonyms fit perfectly.

"Go someone's way" *can* mean "be favorable," but here, it's specific. It's the *light* going their way, that is "the light turned green for their direction". So it's the direction sense, I think. Or is "went their way" actually a form of sense 3, referring to the direction?

Right! "Light went their way" definitely refers to the traffic light turning green for them, and "their way" means "their direction."

Let's look at it more concretely. So, "When the light went their way" -> when the traffic light turned in their direction. That makes perfect sense. Synonym: direction. "When the light went their direction" works seamlessly.

Let's confirm that with sense 3. sense_key=way%1:15:00:: | definition=a line leading to a place or point | synonyms=direction | examples=he looked the other direction; didn't know the way home.

Wait, is there any other sense? Not really, sense 4 "the condition of things generally," doesn't apply here. No way, it's not sense 6 "artifact consisting of a road or path".

Yep, it's definitely the direction.

Just to be certain, what about "light" referring to luck? No, "they went on across the street." The light is a traffic light. The light went their way = the light turned green for them. Therefore, "their way" is "their direction".

Sense 3 is the one. I'm choosing it.

**Analyzing "go on" in Context**

Okay, so I'm presented with the lemma "go_on" and the surface form "went on" in the sentence "When the light went their way, they went on across the street." My first thought is to understand what "go on" means here. It seems to describe movement, specifically continuing movement *across* the street.  I have two candidates to evaluate. Candidate 1 is "continue a certain state, condition, or activity" which seems a little off. Then Candidate 3, "move forward, also in the metaphorical sense" seems more promising. I have the synonyms continue, proceed, go along, keep for Candidate 1. But advance, progress, pass on, move on, march on for Candidate 3.

Hmm. Moving across the street *is* a form of moving forward. Let's look at Candidate 1, I have the examples "Keep on working!"; "We continued to work into the night". And for Candidate 3, I have "Time marches on". Could "went on" mean "proceed" or "advance"?

"In 'they went on across the street', it means 'proceed' -> 'go on' as in moving forward/along. Let's check WordNet for "go on across the street". Wait, "go_on%2:38:00::" has synonyms advance, progress, pass on, move on, march on. And "go_on%2:42:00::" has synonyms continue, proceed, go along, keep. "go on" = "proceed", "continue"?

Let's carefully consider this. "Went on across the street" implies continuing their journey or moving forward. Is "proceed" in Candidate 1 or 3? Candidate 1 has "proceed". But Candidate 1 is "continue a certain state, condition, or activity". Going across the street is an activity/movement.

Candidate 3: "move forward, also in the metaphorical sense". If I look up "go on", sense 1 is "continue a certain state, condition, or activity". Sense 3 is "move forward, also in the metaphorical sense". The examples there are helpful: "Time marches on".

If someone "goes on across the street", they are proceeding across the street. "move on" implies moving forward.

I'm starting to parse the fine differences. The synonyms are illuminating: "advance, progress, pass on, move on, march on, go on" versus "proceed, go forward, continue". I need to think this through carefully.

Let's consider "went on across the street". Is it "continue a state/activity" or "move forward"? They were waiting for the light. "When the light went their way, they went on across the street." This implies they had stopped to wait for the light. Then they *continued* moving across. So it might be "proceed".

In WordNet, "proceed" is in sense 1, but its synonyms there aren't *quite* right. "move forward" (advance, progress, pass on, move on, march on, go on) seems spatial. "they went on across the street."

Wait, "continue, proceed, go along, keep" -> "We continued to work into the night". The focus is on the *state* of working. But spatial movement: "they went on across the street" = they moved forward across the street.

"advance%2:38:00" in WordNet is "move forward, also in the metaphorical sense" -> "Time marches on", "The army advanced". But "they went on across the street", they are *moving* forward across the street. "go on" = move forward.

I see a distinction between "continue" and "move forward". I'm getting closer to a definitive answer. Now let's try to map the WordNet senses precisely. Let's check "proceed" in WordNet. proceed%2:38:00: move ahead; travel onward in time or space ("We proceeded towards Washington"; "The train departed for Rome").  Wait, "proceed" is there, but its synonyms are go forward, proceed, continue. Not go on!

I have to carefully map this. Candidate 1: sense_key=go_on%2:42:00:: | continue a certain state, condition, or activity. Synonyms: continue, proceed, go along, keep. Is there another sense?

Let's re-read Candidate 1, I see: synonyms=continue, proceed, go along, keep.

Wait, "proceed" in Candidate 1 is proceed%2:42:00. This is sense 1. Candidate 3: synonyms=advance, progress, pass on, move

**Deconstructing "Street" in Context**

Okay, so the target is "street" in this sentence: "When the light went their way, they went on across the street." My brain immediately goes to the action described - crossing a thoroughfare at a traffic light. That screams "the road itself," right? I need to clarify which specific meaning of "street" applies here.

Let's break down the definitions. Sense 2, "the part of a thoroughfare between the sidewalks; the part of the thoroughfare on which vehicles travel," is the one with the example phrase "be careful crossing the street." Bingo! That nails it.

Sense 1, "a thoroughfare (usually including sidewalks) that is lined with buildings" is obviously relevant in a wider sense, but the phrase "across the street" directly points to the *crossing* of the road where vehicles are found. That nuance of "crossing the *street*" - not just walking on it, but going *across* it - fits perfectly with Sense 2. So, Sense 2 is the most precise and appropriate.

**Analyzing the "Stranger" in Context**

Okay, the target word is "stranger." The provided context is, "...the stranger found out that Phil was on the way...". Right off the bat, I need to pinpoint the relevant sense. Let's consider the candidate senses:

1.  *stranger%1:18:00::* | anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found | alien, unknown
2.  *stranger%1:18:01::* | an individual that one is not acquainted with

The key here is understanding the relationship between the characters. The text mentions Phil and Haney, but the "stranger" is introduced later. Looking back, there's a suggestion this individual is unknown to Phil and Haney, someone they encounter on their way to a bar. The previous context implies they are unfamiliar with this person. It seems the stranger is an individual who Phil and Haney are not acquainted with.

So, is the stranger just an alien, or an outsider?

Considering the definitions, I'm leaning toward Sense 2: "an individual that one is not acquainted with." This aligns with the everyday understanding of a stranger, someone unknown to the speaker or character.

Now, let's confirm. I'll test each definition in different context.

*   Sense 1: works in "a stranger in a strange land."

*   Sense 2: works in "don't talk to strangers"

Since the situation seems to involve someone Phil and Haney have just met or are encountering, Sense 2 fits perfectly. The "stranger" is simply an unknown person to Phil (and probably Haney).

Therefore, Sense 2 is the clear and most appropriate choice here.

**Analyzing "found out" in Context**

Okay, so the target is "find_out" and the specific surface form is "found out". The sentence is "...And when the stranger found out that Phil was on the way to one of his favorite bars, he insisted on offering to buy drinks for both of them." Immediately, I'm thinking about the different senses this could represent. Let's see...

I can see a few possibilities here. The first, establishing something after some calculation or investigation – determining, finding, or ascertaining. Nope, that doesn't really seem right given the context. Then there's the second sense: get to know or become aware of something, usually accidentally – learn, hear, pick up something. That sounds promising. And finally, we have the third sense: finding out with certainty through effort – determining, checking, or ascertaining through inquiry, which implies a more active search. The fourth sense, "to trap" doesn't work.

Given "when the stranger found out that Phil was on the way...", it really feels like sense number two, the 'became aware' sense, is the strongest. The sentence suggests an accidental discovery, or a piece of information that just came to the stranger's attention. Think about it. "Learned that she has two grown-up children" - that's similar. I'm imagining the stranger *overhearing* or *being told* the information about Phil. Sense three, with the implication of active inquiry, feels too strong for this specific phrasing. It doesn’t feel like he *searched* this information, but that he simply *became aware* of it. So, yeah, sense number two is the clear winner here.
