1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "impact" from a provided numbered list, based on its usage in a specific sentence. The output should be *only* the number of the correct sense.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence:**
    *   *Sentence:* "As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration... there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive <t>impact</t> of migration flows on economic growth, wages and employment in countries, which admit immigrants."
    *   *Context:* The sentence discusses the "impact" of migration flows on abstract concepts like economic growth, wages, and employment.
    *   *Keywords:* "positive impact", "migration flows", "economic growth".
    *   *Meaning:* Here, "impact" means an effect, influence, or result. It refers to how migration affects the economy. It is abstract, not physical.

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   *Sense 1:* "definition=the striking of one body against another"
        *   *Type:* Physical collision.
        *   *Fit:* Does migration flow physically strike economic growth? No. This is a literal/physical definition.
    *   *Sense 2:* "definition=a forceful consequence; a strong effect | examples=the book had an important impact on my thinking"
        *   *Type:* Abstract effect/consequence.
        *   *Fit:* The sentence talks about the "positive impact... on economic growth". This matches "strong effect". The example given ("the book had an important impact on my thinking") parallels the usage in the target sentence (a phenomenon having an effect on an outcome).
    *   *Sense 3:* "definition=influencing strongly | examples=they resented the impingement of American values on European culture"
        *   *Type:* Action/Process (influencing).
        *   *Fit:* While similar to sense 2, sense 3 often implies the *act* of impinging or influencing (often negative/intrusive based on the example "impingement"). However, looking at the structure: "positive *impact* of migration flows". "Impact" here is a noun representing the result or effect, not necessarily the active process of influencing (though they are close). Let's compare Sense 2 and Sense 3 more closely.
        *   Sense 2 emphasizes the *consequence* or *effect* ("forceful consequence").
        *   Sense 3 emphasizes the *act* of influencing ("influencing strongly").
        *   In the context "positive impact... on economic growth", it refers to the *result* or *effect* on the economy. "Consequence" or "effect" fits better than the action "influencing". Furthermore, sense 2's example "impact on my thinking" matches the structure "impact... on economic growth" almost perfectly.
    *   *Sense 4:* "definition=the violent interaction of individuals or groups entering into combat | examples=the armies met in the shock of battle"
        *   *Type:* Violent combat.
        *   *Fit:* Migration is not described as a battle here.

4.  **Refine Decision between Sense 2 and Sense 3:**
    *   Sense 2: "a forceful consequence; a strong effect".
    *   Sense 3: "influencing strongly".
    *   In standard WordNet or dictionary definitions (from which these likely originate), "impact" as a noun usually falls under "influence/effect".
    *   The phrase "positive impact" strongly implies a result or effect. "Consequence" is a noun describing the result. "Influencing" (Sense 3) is often the definition for the *verb* form or a slightly different noun sense regarding the act of influence.
    *   Let's look at the examples provided in the prompt:
        *   Sense 2 example: "the book had an important impact on my thinking". This is an abstract effect.
        *   Sense 3 example: "they resented the impingement of American values...". This focuses on the intrusion/action.
    *   The sentence says there is consensus on the "positive impact". "Positive effect" makes perfect sense. "Positive influencing strongly" is grammatically awkward if interpreting Sense 3 as the action itself.
    *   Therefore, Sense 2 is the best fit. "Impact" here is synonymous with "effect" or "consequence".

5.  **Final Check:**
    *   Sentence: "...positive <t>impact</t> of migration flows on economic growth..."
    *   Substitute Sense 2 definition: "...positive [forceful consequence; a strong effect] of migration flows on economic growth..." -> Makes perfect sense.
    *   Substitute Sense 3 definition: "...positive [influencing strongly] of migration flows..." -> Less natural as a noun phrase describing a result.
    *   Substitute Sense 1: Physical striking. -> Incorrect.
    *   Substitute Sense 4: Combat. -> Incorrect.

6.  **Formulate Output:** The correct sense is 2. The instruction says "Return only the number of the correct sense."

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

Sentence: As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration (Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World and Will Define Our Future, mai 2011, Princeton University Press, 352 pp.), there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of <t>migration</t> flows on economic growth, wages and employment in countries, which admit immigrants.

Senses:
1. definition=the movement of persons from one country or locality to another
2. definition=a group of people migrating together (especially in some given time period)
3. definition=(chemistry) the nonrandom movement of an atom or radical from one place to another within a molecule
4. definition=the periodic passage of groups of animals (especially birds or fishes) from one region to another for feeding or breeding

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:**
    *   Input sentence: "As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration (Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World and Will Define Our Future, mai 2011, Princeton University Press, 352 pp.), there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of <t>migration</t> flows on economic growth, wages and employment in countries, which admit immigrants."
    *   Target word: "<t>migration</t>"
    *   Task: Identify the correct sense number from the provided list.
    *   Constraint: Return *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the Context:**
    *   The sentence discusses economists (Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron).
    *   It mentions a book titled "Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World...".
    *   It talks about "immigration" and "countries, which admit immigrants".
    *   The specific phrase is "<t>migration</t> flows".
    *   The context is clearly about people moving from one country to another (immigration/economic impact).

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   Sense 1: "definition=the movement of persons from one country or locality to another".
        *   This fits perfectly. The text discusses "immigration", "countries which admit immigrants", and "economic growth". It refers to the process of people moving.
    *   Sense 2: "definition=a group of people migrating together (especially in some given time period)".
        *   While the text mentions "migration flows", "migration" itself usually refers to the abstract process or phenomenon in this academic/economic context, not a specific group of people (e.g., "a migration of settlers arrived today"). However, even if interpreted as "flows", Sense 1 is the general definition of the concept being discussed. Sense 2 treats "migration" as a countable noun denoting the group itself (e.g., "a large migration"). The sentence uses "migration flows", where "migration" acts more as the abstract noun denoting the action/process. Sense 1 is the primary definition fitting the abstract concept.
    *   Sense 3: "definition=(chemistry) the nonrandom movement of an atom or radical...".
        *   Incorrect. Context is economics and sociology, not chemistry.
    *   Sense 4: "definition=the periodic passage of groups of animals (especially birds or fishes)...".
        *   Incorrect. Context is about humans ("immigrants", "economists").

4.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2:**
    *   Sense 1 is the general act or process.
    *   Sense 2 is a collective noun for a specific group.
    *   In the phrase "migration flows", "migration" refers to the phenomenon/process of moving. The "flows" are the quantifiable aspect of that process.
    *   Most dictionaries (like WordNet, from which these senses likely derive) distinguish between the act/process (Sense 1) and the group (Sense 2).
    *   Example for Sense 1: "Migration is a complex issue."
    *   Example for Sense 2: "A large migration of refugees."
    *   The sentence talks about the "impact of migration flows". Here, "migration" refers to the activity/movement of people. If we substitute the definitions:
        *   "impact of [the movement of persons from one country or locality to another] flows..." -> Makes sense.
        *   "impact of [a group of people migrating together] flows..." -> A bit clunky. Usually, "migration" as a group doesn't take "flows" immediately after it in this specific syntactic way (we would say "migrant flows" or "flows of migrants"). "Migration flows" refers to the *flows of the activity/process*.
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct choice.

5.  **Final Selection:** Sense 1.

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

Sentence: As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration (Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World and Will Define Our Future, mai 2011, Princeton University Press, 352 pp.), there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of migration <t>flows</t> on economic growth, wages and employment in countries, which admit immigrants.

Senses:
1. definition=the motion characteristic of fluids (liquids or gases)
2. definition=the amount of fluid that flows in a given time
3. definition=the act of flowing or streaming; continuous progression
4. definition=any uninterrupted stream or discharge
5. definition=something that resembles a flowing stream in moving continuously | examples=a stream of people emptied from the terminal
6. definition=dominant course (suggestive of running water) of successive events or ideas | examples=two streams of development run through American history
7. definition=the monthly discharge of blood from the uterus of nonpregnant women from puberty to menopause; ; --Hippocrates; --Aristotle | examples=the women were sickly and subject to excessive menstruation

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:**
    *   Target word: "flow" (specifically the plural "flows" marked with <t></t> in the sentence).
    *   Context sentence: "...there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of migration <t>flows</t> on economic growth, wages and employment in countries..."
    *   Task: Identify the correct sense number from the provided list.
    *   Constraint: Return *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the Context Sentence:**
    *   The phrase is "migration flows".
    *   Subject matter: Economics, immigration, demographics.
    *   Meaning in context: It refers to the movement of groups of people (immigrants) from one place to another over time. It's a continuous movement or stream of people.

3.  **Evaluate the Senses:**

    *   *Sense 1:* "the motion characteristic of fluids (liquids or gases)"
        *   Analysis: This refers to physical fluids like water or air. Migration involves people, not literal fluids in a physics sense (though metaphorically). This is too literal.

    *   *Sense 2:* "the amount of fluid that flows in a given time"
        *   Analysis: Measurement of fluid volume. Not applicable to people in this specific sense, though "rate of flow" is related. "Flows" here isn't referring to a volume metric directly (e.g., "a flow of 5 liters"), but the movement itself.

    *   *Sense 3:* "the act of flowing or streaming; continuous progression"
        *   Analysis: This is abstract. It could apply, but let's look at the others to see if there's a better fit for "migration flows". "Migration flows" usually implies a stream of something.

    *   *Sense 4:* "any uninterrupted stream or discharge"
        *   Analysis: Similar to 3, but often implies a physical discharge.

    *   *Sense 5:* "something that resembles a flowing stream in moving continuously | examples=a stream of people emptied from the terminal"
        *   Analysis: This definition explicitly mentions "something that resembles a flowing stream". The example provided is "a stream of people". "Migration flows" fits this perfectly. It treats the movement of people as a stream. The people are the "something". The movement is continuous.

    *   *Sense 6:* "dominant course (suggestive of running water) of successive events or ideas | examples=two streams of development run through American history"
        *   Analysis: This is metaphorical for ideas or history (e.g., "the flow of history"). "Migration flows" refers to actual people moving, not abstract ideas or events.

    *   *Sense 7:* "the monthly discharge of blood..."
        *   Analysis: Menstruation. Clearly incorrect.

4.  **Compare Sense 3 and Sense 5:**
    *   Sense 3 is "the act of flowing". While migration is an act, "migration flows" is a noun phrase referring to the groups or the stream of people themselves, or the movement viewed as a stream.
    *   Sense 5 defines the *noun* "flow" as "something that resembles a flowing stream in moving continuously". The example is "a stream of people". "Migration flows" means "streams of migrants/people".
    *   Sense 5 captures the metaphorical extension of fluid dynamics to people movement best.

5.  **Confirming the choice:**
    *   In demographic and economic contexts, "migration flows" refers to the stream of people moving. It is the standard terminology.
    *   Sense 5: "something that resembles a flowing stream in moving continuously" with the example "a stream of people". This matches "migration flows" (streams of people).

6.  **Final Decision:** Sense 5 is the correct match.

Sentence: As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration (Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World and Will Define Our Future, mai 2011, Princeton University Press, 352 pp.), there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of migration flows on economic growth, wages and <t>employment</t> in countries, which admit immigrants.

Senses:
1. definition=the state of being employed or having a job | examples=they are looking for employment
2. definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=he is looking for employment
3. definition=the act of giving someone a job
4. definition=the act of using | examples=he warned against the use of narcotic drugs

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the input sentence:** "As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration (Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World and Will Define Our Future, mai 2011, Princeton University Press, 352 pp.), there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of migration flows on economic growth, wages and <t>employment</t> in countries, which admit immigrants."

2.  **Identify the context of the target word "<t>employment</t>":**
    *   The sentence discusses the impact of migration flows on "economic growth, wages and <t>employment</t>".
    *   These three items (growth, wages, employment) are economic indicators or metrics related to the labor market.
    *   "Economic growth" refers to the increase in production of goods and services.
    *   "Wages" refers to the earnings of workers.
    *   "Employment" here refers to the status of people having jobs or the quantity of people with jobs in an economy.

3.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** `definition=the state of being employed or having a job | examples=they are looking for employment`
        *   Does this fit? Yes. When economists talk about the impact on "employment," they usually mean the number of people who have jobs or the rate of employment (versus unemployment). It refers to the condition of the labor market. "Positive impact on employment" means more people are in the state of having a job.

    *   **Sense 2:** `definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=he is looking for employment`
        *   Does this fit? This sense usually refers to a specific job or role (e.g., "His employment was that of a teacher"). In the context of macroeconomic impact on countries, we aren't talking about a specific occupation, but rather the general labor market status. While "he is looking for employment" (seeking a job) is similar to sense 1 examples, the definition "the occupation for which you are paid" is distinct from the state of having a job. The sentence discusses employment as a collective metric alongside growth and wages. It's not about specific trades or professions.

    *   **Sense 3:** `definition=the act of giving someone a job`
        *   Does this fit? No. This would be "hiring." While hiring impacts employment, the sentence talks about the impact on "employment" as a metric. "Positive impact on the act of giving someone a job" sounds awkward. It's about the resulting state (more jobs), not the act of hiring itself.

    *   **Sense 4:** `definition=the act of using | examples=he warned against the use of narcotic drugs`
        *   Does this fit? No. This is a different meaning of employment (e.g., "the employment of tools" or "the employment of a strategy"). It doesn't fit the context of immigration, economics, wages, and growth.

4.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2 more closely:**
    *   Sense 1 definition: "the state of being employed or having a job".
    *   Sense 2 definition: "the occupation for which you are paid".
    *   The sentence lists "employment" alongside "wages" and "economic growth." These are aggregate economic variables.
    *   "Employment" in this context means the extent to which the workforce has jobs (the state of having a job).
    *   Sense 2 is more akin to "profession" or "line of work." For example, "He found employment as a baker." That is not the usage here. Here it is used as an abstract noun representing the labor market situation.
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct match.

5.  **Final conclusion:** The sentence refers to the macroeconomic state of people having jobs.

6.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.
    *   The number is 1.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "country" (marked as `<t>countries</t>`) in a specific sentence, based on a provided list of numbered senses. I need to return *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence:**
    *   Sentence: "As the economists Ian Goldin and Geoffrey Cameron, remind us in a recent book summarising the most recent knowledge of immigration (Exceptional People: How Migration Shaped Our World and Will Define Our Future, mai 2011, Princeton University Press, 352 pp.), there is wide consensus among specialists on the positive impact of migration flows on economic growth, wages and employment in `<t>countries</t>`, which admit immigrants."
    *   Context: The sentence discusses "migration flows," "economic growth," "wages," and "employment" in the entity marked by `<t>countries</t>`. These entities "admit immigrants."
    *   Grammatical role: Plural noun ("countries").
    *   Meaning: It refers to political entities or nation-states that have governments, borders, and the authority to admit immigrants. It's talking about the geopolitical unit.

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** "definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | examples=the state has elected a new president"
        *   Keywords: politically organized, single government.
        *   Fit: This aligns well with the idea of a country admitting immigrants (a political act governed by laws) and having economic statistics (GDP, wages). It refers to the state or nation-state.

    *   **Sense 2:** "definition=the territory occupied by a nation | examples=he returned to the land of his birth"
        *   Keywords: territory, land.
        *   Fit: While a country has territory, the sentence focuses on economic indicators and immigration policies ("admit immigrants"). These are functions of the political entity, not just the soil. However, often "country" is defined as the territory. Let's compare Sense 1 and Sense 2.
        *   Distinction: Sense 1 focuses on the *political organization* (the state). Sense 2 focuses on the *territory* (the land). The sentence discusses "economic growth, wages and employment" and immigration policy. These are attributes of the *governing body* or the political entity. You don't say "the territory admits immigrants" (the government/policy does). You don't say "wages in the territory" (though possible, it's usually wages within the economy of the political state). The phrase "admit immigrants" is a strong cue for the political entity (Sense 1).

    *   **Sense 3:** "definition=the people who live in a nation or country | examples=a statement that sums up the nation's mood"
        *   Fit: This refers to the population. While economic growth affects the people, the sentence refers to the entity that admits immigrants. "The people" don't admit immigrants as a collective unit; the government/country does.

    *   **Sense 4:** "definition=an area outside of cities and towns | examples=his poetry celebrated the slower pace of life in the country"
        *   Fit: This is "country" as in "countryside" (rural area). This does not fit the context of international migration and national economic statistics.

    *   **Sense 5:** "definition=a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary... | examples=it was a mountainous area"
        *   Fit: This is more about a region. "Countries" in the text refers to specific nation-states with definite borders (since they admit immigrants).

4.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2 again:**
    *   Sense 1: "politically organized body... under a single government".
    *   Sense 2: "territory occupied by a nation".
    *   The sentence mentions "countries, which admit immigrants". Who admits immigrants? The government or the political entity acting through its government. A piece of land (Sense 2) doesn't admit anyone; the political state (Sense 1) does. Economic growth is also a measure of the political economy. Therefore, Sense 1 is the precise definition fitting the geopolitical context.

5.  **Final Conclusion:** The usage refers to the political state/nation-state.
    *   Sense 1 matches "politically organized body... under a single government".

6.  **Output Generation:** The user requested "Return only the number of the correct sense."
    *   Number: 1.

    *Self-Correction/Double Check:* Does "countries" in "countries, which admit immigrants" refer to the people or the land?
    - Land (Sense 2)? No, land doesn't pass laws or admit people.
    - People (Sense 3)? No, "the people admit immigrants" is awkward phrasing for a general statement about policy.
    - Political entity (Sense 1)? Yes. "The country admitted the refugee." This is the standard geopolitical usage.

    Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct answer.

    *   Constraint: Return *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the Context Sentence:**
    *   Sentence: "Restraining immigration leads to anaemic growth and harms employment."
    *   Key verb: "Restraining". You restrain a process, an action, or a flow.
    *   Context: The sentence discusses the economic impact (growth, employment) of limiting the process of people coming into a country.

3.  **Analyze Sense 1:**
    *   Definition: "migration into a place (especially migration to a country of which you are not a native in order to settle there)"
    *   Analysis: This definition refers to the *process* or *action* of moving to a country to settle. Can you "restrain" this process? Yes. You can put limits on the number of people allowed to enter, tighten border controls, change visa laws. This fits perfectly with the verb "restraining".
    *   Economic context: Restricting the flow of people (the process) impacts labor markets and growth.

4.  **Analyze Sense 2:**
    *   Definition: "the body of immigrants arriving during a specified interval"
    *   Examples: "the increased immigration strengthened the colony"
    *   Analysis: This definition treats "immigration" as a collective noun referring to the *group of people* themselves (the body of immigrants). Can you "restrain" a body of people? Physically, perhaps, but in an economic/policy context, you restrain the *process* or the *flow*. While one might argue you restrain the *influx* (which is close to this sense), Sense 1 is the abstract process.
    *   Let's look closer at the distinction.
        *   Sense 1: The act/process. "Immigration is a controversial topic." "Immigration laws."
        *   Sense 2: The collective group/influx quantity. "The immigration of the 1990s was diverse."
    *   Let's re-evaluate "Restraining immigration".
        *   If I say "Restraining the immigration", it sounds like I am holding back the people (Sense 2-ish).
        *   However, usually, "immigration" without a determiner (like "the") in a phrase like "restraining immigration" refers to the general concept or policy of allowing people to enter (Sense 1).
        *   Let's look at WordNet (source of these definitions). WordNet 3.0 defines "immigration" as:
            *   1. migration into a place...
            *   2. the body of immigrants...
        *   In the sentence "Restraining immigration...", is it referring to the *people* (Sense 2) or the *process* (Sense 1)?
        *   Usually, "restraining immigration" refers to limiting the *activity* or *phenomenon*. "Restraining" acts upon an action/process. You restrain a flow. You restrain an activity.
        *   Sense 1 is "migration into a place". Restraining migration = stopping the movement.
        *   Sense 2 is "the body of immigrants". Restraining a body of immigrants sounds slightly off. You restrain the *movement* of a body, or you restrict the *entry* of the body. You don't usually restrain the collective noun itself in this context. You might "limit" the body of immigrants, but "restrain" pairs most naturally with the action/process.

    *   Let's compare with a standard corpus example for Sense 2: "they witnessed the immigration of the Saxons." Here, it refers to the historical event/group movement.
    *   The sentence "Restraining immigration leads to anaemic growth..." implies a policy decision to limit the flow/entry.
    *   Most lexicographical categorization would place "restraining immigration" under the general concept/process (Sense 1). It refers to the phenomenon of people entering the country.
    *   Let's double-check if Sense 2 is a better fit. Sense 2 is "the body of immigrants arriving". If the sentence meant "Restraining the [body of immigrants]", it would usually say "Restraining immigrants". Using the abstract noun "immigration" usually refers to the process (Sense 1).
    *   Let's look at the example for Sense 2: "the increased immigration strengthened the colony." Here "immigration" refers to the *result* (the people who arrived) strengthening the colony.
    *   In the target sentence: "Restraining immigration..." -> Restraining the *process* of entering.
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct fit.

5.  **Final Decision:**
    *   Sense 1 defines the action/process. "Restraining" acts upon the action/process.
    *   Sense 2 defines the collective group. While you can restrict the group, "restraining immigration" is a standard phrase for controlling the process.

    Let's try a substitution test.
    Sense 1 substitution: "Restraining [migration into a place] leads to..." -> Makes sense.
    Sense 2 substitution: "Restraining [the body of immigrants arriving] leads to..." -> A bit clunky. You would typically say "Restraining immigrants" or "Restricting the flow of immigrants."

    The verb "restrain" strongly favors an active process or force (Sense 1) rather than a static group (Sense 2), although the group is dynamic. The abstract noun usage here is Sense 1.

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

Sentence: Restraining immigration leads to anaemic <t>growth</t> and harms employment.

Senses:
1. definition=(biology) the process of an individual organism growing organically; a purely biological unfolding of events involved in an organism changing gradually from a simple to a more complex level | examples=he proposed an indicator of osseous development in children
2. definition=a progression from simpler to more complex forms | examples=the growth of culture
3. definition=a process of becoming larger or longer or more numerous or more important | examples=the increase in unemployment
4. definition=vegetation that has grown | examples=a growth of trees
5. definition=the gradual beginning or coming forth | examples=figurines presage the emergence of sculpture in Greece
6. definition=(pathology) an abnormal proliferation of tissue (as in a tumor)
7. definition=something grown or growing | examples=a growth of hair

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the input sentence:** "Restraining immigration leads to anaemic <t>growth</t> and harms employment."
    *   Key phrase: "anaemic growth".
    *   Context: Immigration, employment, economics. The sentence is discussing the economic impact of restricting immigration.
    *   Meaning of "growth" here: It refers to economic growth (increase in GDP, economic output, etc.). It implies an increase in size, value, or importance of an economy.

2.  **Analyze the provided senses:**

    *   *Sense 1:* definition=(biology) the process of an individual organism growing organically... examples=he proposed an indicator of osseous development in children.
        *   Context: Biology/Organisms.
        *   Match? No. The sentence is about economics, not a living organism's physical development.

    *   *Sense 2:* definition=a progression from simpler to more complex forms | examples=the growth of culture.
        *   Context: Abstract evolution (culture).
        *   Match? Close, as economics is abstract, but the specific phrase "anaemic growth" usually refers to the *rate* or *magnitude* of expansion (numbers), rather than complexity. Sense 3 looks like a better fit for magnitude.

    *   *Sense 3:* definition=a process of becoming larger or longer or more numerous or more important | examples=the increase in unemployment.
        *   Context: General increase in size/number/importance. The example "the increase in unemployment" relates to labor markets, which is close to the context of the sentence (employment).
        *   Match? Yes. Economic growth is the process of an economy becoming larger or more important. "Anaemic growth" implies the process of becoming larger is weak or slow. This definition fits the concept of economic expansion perfectly.

    *   *Sense 4:* definition=vegetation that has grown | examples=a growth of trees.
        *   Context: Plants/Nature.
        *   Match? No.

    *   *Sense 5:* definition=the gradual beginning or coming forth | examples=figurines presage the emergence of sculpture in Greece.
        *   Context: Emergence/Beginning.
        *   Match? No. The sentence talks about the rate/state of growth (anaemic), not the beginning of it.

    *   *Sense 6:* definition=(pathology) an abnormal proliferation of tissue (as in a tumor).
        *   Context: Medical/Disease.
        *   Match? No.

    *   *Sense 7:* definition=something grown or growing | examples=a growth of hair.
        *   Context: Physical object/substance growing.
        *   Match? No.

3.  **Compare Sense 2 and Sense 3:**
    *   Sense 2 focuses on "simpler to more complex".
    *   Sense 3 focuses on "becoming larger or longer or more numerous or more important".
    *   In economics, "growth" is defined as an increase in the production of economic goods and services (becoming larger/more numerous). "Anaemic growth" specifically refers to a low rate of increase.
    *   Therefore, Sense 3 is the accurate definition for economic growth.

4.  **Final Conclusion:** The correct sense is 3.

5.  **Output Requirement:** Return only the number.

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

Sentence: Restraining immigration leads to anaemic growth and harms <t>employment</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=the state of being employed or having a job | examples=they are looking for employment
2. definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=he is looking for employment
3. definition=the act of giving someone a job
4. definition=the act of using | examples=he warned against the use of narcotic drugs

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the input sentence:** "Restraining immigration leads to anaemic growth and harms employment."
    *   Context: The sentence discusses economics and policy (immigration, growth).
    *   Target word: "employment".
    *   Meaning in context: The sentence says that restricting immigration negatively affects "employment". In economic contexts, "employment" usually refers to the aggregate state of people having jobs or the number of people who have jobs. "Harms employment" means it causes fewer people to have jobs or increases unemployment.

2.  **Analyze the provided senses:**
    *   Sense 1: definition=the state of being employed or having a job | examples=they are looking for employment. This refers to the condition or status of having a job. In an economic context (like "harms employment"), this is the closest match. It refers to the overall employment level or status within an economy.
    *   Sense 2: definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=he is looking for employment. This focuses on a specific *type* of work or a specific *job* role (e.g., "his employment was that of a teacher"). The sentence talks about "employment" as a general concept being harmed, not a specific occupation.
    *   Sense 3: definition=the act of giving someone a job. This refers to the action of hiring. "Harms the act of giving someone a job" is a bit clunky. While restrictive policies might reduce hiring, the phrase "harms employment" usually refers to the *result* (people having jobs) rather than the specific act of hiring.
    *   Sense 4: definition=the act of using | examples=he warned against the use of narcotic drugs. This is often used in phrases like "employment of tools" or "employment of resources." It doesn't fit the economic context of immigration and growth.

3.  **Compare Sentence vs. Senses:**
    *   The sentence discusses macroeconomics ("growth," "immigration").
    *   "Harms employment" is synonymous with "increases unemployment" or "reduces the number of people with jobs."
    *   Sense 1 ("the state of being employed or having a job") captures this abstract, aggregate noun usage best. It refers to the condition of the workforce.
    *   Sense 2 is more about a specific post/position.
    *   Sense 3 is the act of hiring.
    *   Sense 4 is usage/utilization.

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 2.
    *   Sense 1: "State of being employed". When we say "employment is high" or "employment is harmed," we are talking about the state of affairs regarding jobs.
    *   Sense 2: "The occupation". If I say "I found employment," it's ambiguous between 1 and 2. But usually, dictionaries distinguish between "employment" (state of having a job) and "employment" (a specific job/occupation).
    *   WordNet (often the source for these tasks) distinguishes between:
        *   employment (the state of being employed or having a job) -> matches Sense 1.
        *   employment (the occupation for which you are paid) -> matches Sense 2.
    *   In the sentence "harms employment", it refers to the general availability of jobs or the state of the labor market. It is not referring to a specific occupation (e.g., "harms the job of a bricklayer"). It refers to the general condition. Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct choice.

4.  **Final Decision:** Sense 1 fits the context of the sentence best ("state of being employed").

5.  **Format Output:** Return only the number.
    *   The number is 1.

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

Sentence: <t>Fears</t> about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages.

Senses:
1. definition=an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by a desire to flee or fight)
2. definition=an anxious feeling | examples=care had aged him
3. definition=a feeling of profound respect for someone or something | examples=the fear of God

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:**
    *   Target word: "Fears" (wrapped in `<t></t>`).
    *   Sentence context: "<t>Fears</t> about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages."
    *   Task: Identify the correct sense from the provided list.
    *   Output constraint: Return *only* the number of the correct sense.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence Context:**
    *   The sentence discusses "Fears about the impact of immigrants".
    *   These "fears" are regarding a potential economic outcome (replacing workers, lowering wages).
    *   Is it a sudden, visceral emotion of terror (like being chased by a bear)? No. It's a general concern or anxiety regarding a specific topic (immigration impact).
    *   Is it a feeling of profound respect (like "fear of God")? No. The context is negative anxiety about consequences, not reverence.

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by a desire to flee or fight)".
        *   *Critique:* This is the primary biological/visceral definition of fear. While the people might feel this eventually, "Fears about..." suggests specific concerns or worries rather than the immediate fight-or-flight reaction. It's close, but often "fears" in the plural (concerns/worries) leans slightly differently than "fear" in the singular (the emotion). However, let's look at the other options.
    *   **Sense 2:** "an anxious feeling".
        *   *Critique:* This definition usually maps to "concern" or "worry". "Fears about the impact..." fits well with "anxious feelings" or "concerns" about a future event. The example "care had aged him" seems a bit disconnected from the definition provided (usually definitions are distinct from examples, but sometimes datasets like WordNet have slightly opaque mappings). However, looking at standard dictionary definitions (like WordNet 1.19 or similar):
            *   WordNet 1.7: "an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger" (matches Sense 1).
            *   WordNet 1.7: "an anxious feeling" (matches Sense 2).
            *   WordNet 1.7: "a feeling of profound respect for someone or something" (matches Sense 3).
        *   *Comparison:* In the context "Fears about...", the word acts more like "concerns" or "worries." While Sense 1 is the core emotion, Sense 2 captures the nuance of an "anxious feeling" or a specific worry about a situation rather than immediate mortal danger. "Fears about the impact" = "Concerns about the impact". Sense 2 often covers the "concern/worry" aspect of fear.
    *   **Sense 3:** "a feeling of profound respect for someone or something".
        *   *Critique:* Definitely not. The sentence is about economic anxiety, not reverence.

4.  **Differentiating Sense 1 vs. Sense 2:**
    *   Sense 1 emphasizes "pain or danger" and "desire to flee or fight". This is "fear" of a snake, fear of falling.
    *   Sense 2 emphasizes "an anxious feeling". This is often used for "fear" in the sense of worry about an outcome (e.g., "my fear is that we will be late").
    *   The sentence says: "Fears about the impact of immigrants..."
    *   This usage aligns with "worries" or "concerns." People are worried about the economic impact. This fits the definition "an anxious feeling."
    *   If the sentence were "He felt fear when the intruder entered," that would be Sense 1.
    *   Since it is "Fears about [a policy/social issue]", it represents a state of anxiety or concern.
    *   Therefore, Sense 2 is the best fit among the choices.

5.  **Final Verification:**
    *   Sentence: "Fears about the impact..."
    *   Sense 1: Visceral reaction to danger? No, it's a deliberated worry.
    *   Sense 2: Anxious feeling/concern? Yes.
    *   Sense 3: Reverence? No.

    Therefore, the correct number is 2.

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

Sentence: Fears about the <t>impact</t> of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages.

Senses:
1. definition=the striking of one body against another
2. definition=a forceful consequence; a strong effect | examples=the book had an important impact on my thinking
3. definition=influencing strongly | examples=they resented the impingement of American values on European culture
4. definition=the violent interaction of individuals or groups entering into combat | examples=the armies met in the shock of battle

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "impact" from a provided list, based on a specific sentence. The output must be *only* the number of the correct sense.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence:**
    *   "Fears about the <t>impact</t> of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages."
    *   Context: The sentence discusses the *effect* or *consequence* of immigrants on the job market (native workers, wages).
    *   The word "impact" here refers to an abstract influence or consequence on an economic/social scale, not a physical collision.

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "the striking of one body against another" (Physical collision).
        *   Does this fit? No. Immigrants aren't physically striking native workers in a collision sense.
    *   **Sense 2:** "a forceful consequence; a strong effect" | examples: "the book had an important impact on my thinking".
        *   Does this fit? Yes. The sentence talks about the consequence/effect of immigrants on labor and wages. It matches the abstract noun usage meaning "effect/influence".
    *   **Sense 3:** "influencing strongly" | examples: "they resented the impingement of American values on European culture".
        *   Does this fit? This is very close to Sense 2. Let's distinguish.
        *   Sense 2 defines "impact" as the *consequence* or *effect* itself (noun).
        *   Sense 3 defines "impact" as the *act* of influencing (often verbal noun usage or close to it).
        *   However, looking at standard dictionary distinctions (like WordNet, which this list strongly resembles):
            *   WordNet 1: "the striking of one body against another"
            *   WordNet 2: "a forceful consequence; a strong effect" (e.g., "the book had an important impact")
            *   WordNet 3: "influencing strongly" (e.g., "the impact of the new law").
        *   Let's re-evaluate the specific sentence context. "Fears about the *impact* of immigrants...". Here "impact" functions as the result/effect.
        *   Let's look closer at the nuances of Sense 2 vs Sense 3 in WordNet data.
            *   Sense 2 usually refers to the magnitude of the effect ("had an important impact").
            *   Sense 3 usually refers to the act/process of impinging or having an effect ("the impact of X on Y").
        *   Let's check the example sentences provided in the prompt again.
            *   Sense 2 example: "the book had an important impact on my thinking". This refers to the resulting effect.
            *   Sense 3 example: "they resented the impingement of American values on European culture". This example actually uses the word "impingement" in the example text provided, but the definition is "influencing strongly". Wait, usually, these lists come from WordNet. In WordNet, the synset for Sense 3 includes "impact" and "impingement".
        *   Let's look at the sentence again: "Fears about the impact of immigrants..."
            *   Is it Sense 2? "Fears about the strong effect of immigrants". This makes perfect sense.
            *   Is it Sense 3? "Fears about the influencing strongly of immigrants". This is grammatically slightly awkward but conceptually similar.
        *   Let's try to disambiguate based on standard WSD (Word Sense Disambiguation) principles.
            *   Sense 2 (forceful consequence) is the most general sense for the abstract meaning.
            *   Sense 3 (influencing strongly) often implies a more dynamic process.
        *   Let's check standard WordNet mappings.
            *   WordNet 3.0:
                *   1: physical collision.
                *   2: "a forceful consequence; a strong effect" (Synonyms: impact). Example: "the book had an important impact".
                *   3: "influencing strongly" (Synonyms: impact, impingement). Example: "they resented the impingement of American values...".
        *   In many WSD datasets (like SemCor), "impact" in the context of "the impact of [agent] on [patient]" usually maps to the "effect/consequence" sense.
        *   Sense 2 focuses on the *result* (the consequence).
        *   Sense 3 focuses on the *action* (influencing).
        *   "Fears about the *impact*..." suggests a result/outcome (wages going down). It is a noun denoting the effect.
        *   However, Sense 2's definition "a forceful consequence; a strong effect" is a noun phrase.
        *   Sense 3's definition "influencing strongly" looks like a verb phrase acting as a definition for a noun (action).
        *   Which fits better? "The impact of immigrants" = "The effect of immigrants".
        *   If we substitute definitions:
            *   "Fears about the [strong effect] of immigrants..." -> Sense 2. Fits perfectly.
            *   "Fears about the [influencing strongly] of immigrants..." -> Sense 3. Grammatically clunky ("the influencing..."), though semantically close.
        *   Sense 2 is widely considered the general "effect" sense. Sense 3 is often distinguished by the synonymy with "impingement" (encroachment).
        *   There is no implication of encroachment/impingement in the specific sentence (it's about replacement and wages, an economic effect), though the example in Sense 3 mentions values. The sentence provided talks about economic results.
        *   Let's look at Sense 2 again. "a forceful consequence; a strong effect".
        *   Let's look at Sense 3 again. "influencing strongly".
        *   Usually, Sense 2 is the main abstract noun definition. Sense 3 in WordNet is often treated as the act of impinging.
        *   Let's assume this is based on WordNet. In WordNet, the distinction is:
            *   2: the effect itself.
            *   3: the act/process.
        *   "Impact" here refers to the *effect* on wages and jobs. It is the consequence. Therefore, Sense 2 is the strongest candidate.

4.  **Final Verification:**
    *   Sentence: "impact of immigrants" -> "effect of immigrants".
    *   Sense 1: Physical collision? No.
    *   Sense 2: Strong effect/consequence? Yes. Matches "effect on wages".
    *   Sense 3: Influencing strongly (action)? Close, but usually "impingement" involves a encroachment nuance (as seen in the example). While immigrants replacing workers is a form of impingement, the word "impact" here is primarily discussing the *result* (downward pressure), which aligns with Sense 2 (consequence).
    *   Sense 4: Combat? No.

    *   Comparison of 2 and 3 is the tricky part. Sense 2 is "the effect". Sense 3 is "the influence".
    *   "The book had an important impact" -> The book created a result.
    *   "Fears about the impact of immigrants" -> Fears about the result of immigrants.
    *   Sense 3's definition "influencing strongly" describes the *act*. The sentence describes the *outcome* (replacement, wage pressure).
    *   Therefore, Sense 2 is the correct label for the "effect/consequence" meaning.

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

Sentence: Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the <t>notion</t> that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages.

Senses:
1. definition=a vague idea in which some confidence is placed | examples=his impression of her was favorable
2. definition=a general inclusive concept
3. definition=an odd or fanciful or capricious idea | examples=the theatrical notion of disguise is associated with disaster in his stories
4. definition=(usually plural) small personal articles or clothing or sewing items | examples=buttons and needles are notions

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the input sentence:** "Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the <t>notion</t> that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages."
    *   The word "notion" is the target.
    *   Context: The sentence discusses "fears" being based on a specific idea or belief. This idea is explicitly defined in the "that" clause following it: "that they are liable to replace native workers...".
    *   This suggests "notion" here refers to a belief, a conception, or an idea held by people (presumably the public or specific economists).

2.  **Analyze the provided senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** "definition=a vague idea in which some confidence is placed | examples=his impression of her was favorable"
        *   Keywords: "vague idea", "confidence is placed", "impression".
        *   Fit: The sentence talks about a specific belief ("that they are liable to replace..."). Is it a "vague idea"? Often in economic contexts, a "notion" is a belief or a theory held by people. While "vague" might imply a lack of clarity, "confidence is placed" fits well with "fears are based on [it]". The synonym "impression" suggests a mental conception. In many dictionaries (like WordNet), this sense corresponds to a belief, opinion, or view. The specific definition "a vague idea in which some confidence is placed" is the standard WordNet definition for the most common sense of "notion" (often synonymous with belief, impression, opinion). The sentence says fears are *based on* this notion, implying people believe it to be true (confidence is placed).

    *   **Sense 2:** "definition=a general inclusive concept"
        *   Keywords: "general inclusive concept".
        *   Fit: Does the sentence refer to a general inclusive concept (like "justice" or "freedom")? No, it refers to a specific causal theory about labor markets ("immigrants replace native workers"). This isn't a broad category or a general abstract concept in that sense. It's a specific proposition.

    *   **Sense 3:** "definition=an odd or fanciful or capricious idea | examples=the theatrical notion of disguise is associated with disaster in his stories"
        *   Keywords: "odd", "fanciful", "capricious".
        *   Fit: Is the idea that immigrants replace native workers described as "fanciful" or "odd" here? While the author might be skeptical of the fear, the word "notion" itself in this context usually just means "idea" or "belief" without necessarily implying it's whimsical or capricious. If the author wanted to dismiss it as silly, they might use "whim" or "fantasy". However, "notion" can sometimes carry a connotation of being slightly doubtful, but Sense 1 is the standard usage for "belief/opinion". Sense 3 is more about an impulsive thought or a whim. The "labor substitution theory" is a standard economic argument (whether true or false), not a "capricious idea".

    *   **Sense 4:** "definition=(usually plural) small personal articles or clothing or sewing items | examples=buttons and needles are notions"
        *   Fit: Clearly incorrect. The sentence is not about sewing supplies.

3.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2 (the main contenders):**
    *   Sense 1: "a vague idea in which some confidence is placed". This is the standard dictionary definition for when someone has a "notion about something" or a "notion that...". It implies a mental belief or conviction. Even if the idea is specific, "vague" in dictionary definitions often contrasts with "distinct" or "clearly proven fact", or simply refers to a mental conception. The key is "confidence is placed"—people believe this idea.
    *   Sense 2: "a general inclusive concept". This usually applies to terms like "The notion of democracy" or "The notion of time". Here, the text specifies "the notion *that*..." followed by a specific proposition. A proposition (subject -> predicate) is usually an "idea/belief" (Sense 1) rather than a "general concept" (Sense 2). A "general concept" is usually a noun representing a category (e.g., "The notion of 'freedom' is complex"). Here, "the notion that immigrants replace workers" is a belief statement.

    Let's check standard WordNet mappings (which this dataset likely comes from).
    *   WordNet 3.0:
        *   S: (n) *notion* (a vague idea in which some confidence is placed) "his impression of her was favorable"; "what are your feelings?"; "he had a feeling that he was being watched" -> This maps to Sense 1 provided.
        *   S: (n) *notion* (a general inclusive concept)
        *   S: (n) *notion*, *whim*, *whimsy*, *whimsy* (an odd or fanciful or capricious idea) "the theatrical notion of disguise is associated with disaster in his stories"; "he had a whimsy about flying to the moon"; "whimsy can be humorous"
        *   S: (n) *notion* ((usually plural) small personal articles or clothing or sewing items) "buttons and needles are notions"

    In the sentence: "Fears... are based on the notion that..."
    This is a statement of belief held by a group. It fits the "idea in which some confidence is placed" definition. Even though the idea is articulated specifically ("that they are liable to replace..."), the function of "notion" here is to describe the mental acceptance of this theory.

    Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct match. It denotes a belief or mental impression.

4.  **Final Verification:**
    *   Sentence: Fears are based on the [belief/idea] that...
    *   Sense 1: vague idea in which some confidence is placed. (Matches "belief").
    *   Sense 2: general inclusive concept. (Doesn't fit a specific "that" clause proposition as well as Sense 1).
    *   Sense 3: odd/fanciful idea. (Too specific/pejorative).
    *   Sense 4: sewing items. (Incorrect).

    Result: Sense 1.

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

Sentence: Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native <t>workers</t>, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages.

Senses:
1. definition=a person who works at a specific occupation | examples=he is a good worker
2. definition=a member of the working class (not necessarily employed) | examples=workers of the world--unite!
3. definition=sterile member of a colony of social insects that forages for food and cares for the larvae
4. definition=a person who acts and gets things done | examples=he's a principal actor in this affair

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "worker" from a provided list, based on a specific sentence context. The output must be just the number.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence:**
    *   "Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native <t>workers</t>, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward pressure on wages."
    *   Key context clues: "replace native workers", "unskilled ones", "downward pressure on wages", "impact of immigrants".
    *   This clearly refers to people employed in jobs (or seeking employment) within an economy. They are being discussed in the context of labor markets, wages, and specific skill levels ("unskilled").

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "a person who works at a specific occupation". Examples: "he is a good worker".
        *   *Evaluation:* This fits well. It refers to people holding jobs or occupations. The context discusses them being "replaced" in the labor market.
    *   **Sense 2:** "a member of the working class (not necessarily employed)". Examples: "workers of the world--unite!".
        *   *Evaluation:* This is a broader sociological/class definition. While "workers" in the sentence are likely working class, the context focuses specifically on their role in the economy/job market ("replace", "wages", "unskilled"). Sense 1 is more precise regarding the economic activity/occupation aspect mentioned. However, often Sense 1 and Sense 2 can be close in standard WordNet-style datasets. Let's look closer. Sense 1 implies having an occupation. Sense 2 implies class status. The sentence discusses "unskilled ones", which often points to class, but the threat of replacement is an employment/occupation threat. "Native workers" usually implies people working in jobs. Let's look at the standard distinction. Sense 1 is usually the default for "employee" or "person with a job". Sense 2 is the Marxist/sociological class. The sentence is about economic labor market dynamics. Sense 1 (person working at an occupation) is the direct referent.
    *   **Sense 3:** "sterile member of a colony of social insects..."
        *   *Evaluation:* Definitely not bees or ants.
    *   **Sense 4:** "a person who acts and gets things done".
        *   *Evaluation:* This is more metaphorical/idiomatic ("he's a real worker"). Not the economic sense.

4.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2 more closely:**
    *   Sense 1: "person who works at a specific occupation".
    *   Sense 2: "member of the working class".
    *   In the phrase "native workers", the contrast is with "immigrants" who might take their jobs. This is about the labor market. The people being replaced hold jobs (or are the labor supply). "Unskilled ones" refers to the type of occupation/labor.
    *   Most dictionary definitions (like WordNet) distinguish between the general "employee/laborer" (Sense 1) and the "proletariat/class member" (Sense 2).
    *   The sentence discusses wages and replacement. This refers to the economic role of the person. Sense 1 is the standard definition for "worker" in an economic/employment context.

5.  **Final Decision:** Sense 1 fits best. It refers to individuals engaged in labor/occupation, specifically contrasted by skill level ("unskilled") and economic impact (wages/replacement).

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

Sentence: Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled <t>ones</t>, exerting downward pressure on wages.

Senses:
1. definition=the smallest whole number or a numeral representing this number | examples=he has the one but will need a two and three to go with it
2. definition=a single person or thing | examples=he is the best one

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "one" (specifically the token "<t>ones</t>") in the provided sentence. The output must be just the number of the correct sense.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence:**
    *   Sentence: "Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled <t>ones</t>, exerting downward pressure on wages."
    *   Context: The word "<t>ones</t>" refers back to "native workers" or "unskilled [native workers]".
    *   Grammatical Function: It acts as a pronoun substituting for a noun phrase ("native workers").

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   Sense 1: definition=the smallest whole number or a numeral representing this number | examples=he has the one but will need a two and three to go with it.
        *   Does this fit? Is "ones" being used as a number here? No. It's not counting 1, 2, 3. It's referring to entities.
    *   Sense 2: definition=a single person or thing | examples=he is the best one.
        *   Does this fit? The definition says "a single person or thing". The example "he is the best one" shows usage where "one" stands in for a noun (e.g., "he is the best [candidate/runner/person]").
        *   Let's check the target word: "unskilled <t>ones</t>". Here, "ones" is the plural form of "one". It stands in for "workers". It refers to "persons".
        *   The definition provided for Sense 2 ("a single person or thing") seems to describe the singular usage, but the *sense* itself covers the use of "one" as a prop-word or substitute for a count noun. The example "he is the best one" aligns with the semantic function of substituting for a person/thing.
        *   Does Sense 2 encompass the plural usage? In dictionary contexts (like WordNet, from which these definitions often come), Sense 2 usually covers "one" used as a pronoun referring to people/things. The plural "ones" falls under this same lexical sense category (referencing entities rather than the number).

4.  **Compare the Senses against the Context:**
    *   The sentence talks about "unskilled [workers]". The word "ones" replaces "workers".
    *   "Workers" are people/persons.
    *   Sense 1 is the number (1). The sentence is not saying "unskilled 1s".
    *   Sense 2 is a person or thing. "Workers" are persons. The substitution works.

5.  **Verification:**
    *   "He is the best one." (Sense 2)
    *   "Unskilled ones [workers]." (Target)
    *   Both use "one/ones" as a substitute for a specific noun referring to a person/thing.

6.  **Final Decision:** The correct sense is 2.

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

Sentence: Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward <t>pressure</t> on wages.

Senses:
1. definition=the force applied to a unit area of surface; measured in pascals (SI unit) or in dynes (cgs unit) | examples=the compressed gas exerts an increased pressure
2. definition=a force that compels | examples=the public brought pressure to bear on the government
3. definition=the act of pressing; the exertion of pressure | examples=he gave the button a press
4. definition=the state of demanding notice or attention | examples=the insistence of their hunger
5. definition=the somatic sensation that results from applying force to an area of skin | examples=the sensitivity of his skin to pressure and temperature was normal
6. definition=an oppressive condition of physical or mental or social or economic distress
7. definition=the pressure exerted by the atmosphere

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:**
    *   Target word: "pressure" (marked with <t></t>).
    *   Sentence: "Fears about the impact of immigrants are based on the notion that they are liable to replace native workers, in particular unskilled ones, exerting downward <t>pressure</t> on wages."
    *   Task: Identify the correct numbered sense from the provided list.
    *   Constraint: Return *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence Context:**
    *   The sentence discusses economics (immigrants, workers, wages).
    *   The phrase is "exerting downward pressure on wages".
    *   What does "pressure on wages" mean in this context? It means a force or influence that pushes wages down. It's not a physical force in the Newtonian physics sense (touching an object), but rather an abstract force or influence within a system (the labor market).

3.  **Evaluate the Senses:**
    *   *Sense 1:* "the force applied to a unit area of surface..." (Physics definition). While the metaphor comes from physics, "wages" are not a physical surface, and "downward pressure" here is not measured in pascals. It's an abstract application, not the literal definition.
    *   *Sense 2:* "a force that compels". Examples: "the public brought pressure to bear on the government". This matches well. In economics, "pressure" is a figurative force that compels a change (in this case, lowering wages). It is a compelling force or influence.
    *   *Sense 3:* "the act of pressing". Examples: "he gave the button a press". This is a physical action. Does not fit the abstract economic context.
    *   *Sense 4:* "the state of demanding notice or attention". Examples: "the insistence of their hunger". Not relevant.
    *   *Sense 5:* "the somatic sensation...". Examples: "sensitivity of his skin". This is biological/sensory. Not relevant.
    *   *Sense 6:* "an oppressive condition of physical or mental or social or economic distress". Examples: "the pressure of modern life". While economic distress is mentioned as a *fear*, the specific usage "exerting downward pressure *on wages*" describes the *mechanism* or *force* acting on the wages, not the state of distress itself. It is an active force ("exerting"), not a state of being oppressed. Sense 2 ("a force that compels") is a better fit for "exerting downward pressure" causing a change.
    *   *Sense 7:* "the pressure exerted by the atmosphere". Irrelevant.

4.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2:**
    *   Sense 1 is literal physical pressure.
    *   Sense 2 is figurative pressure (a force that compels/influences).
    *   The sentence uses the language of physics ("exerting downward pressure") metaphorically to describe economic influence. In WordNet style dictionaries (from which these senses likely derive), economic or social "pressure" is usually categorized under the "force that compels" definition, or sometimes treated as a metaphorical extension of physical force.
    *   Let's look at the examples provided for Sense 2: "the public brought pressure to bear on the government". This is social/political pressure. The target sentence is economic pressure. Both function similarly: an influence pushing for a specific outcome.
    *   Sense 1 is strictly physical ($P = F/A$).
    *   Therefore, Sense 2 is the correct classification for this abstract usage of force/influence.

5.  **Final Check:**
    *   Sentence: "...exerting downward pressure on wages."
    *   Meaning: The presence of immigrants acts as a force compelling wages to go down.
    *   Sense 2 definition: "a force that compels".
    *   Match: Yes.

6.  **Formulate Output:**
    *   The user wants only the number.
    *   Result: 2.

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

Sentence: But <t>experience</t> shows that in reality immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local labor, exercising trades in which there is a shortage of local labor.

Senses:
1. definition=the accumulation of knowledge or skill that results from direct participation in events or activities | examples=a man of experience
2. definition=the content of direct observation or participation in an event | examples=he had a religious experience
3. definition=an event as apprehended | examples=a surprising experience

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "But experience shows that in reality immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local labor, exercising trades in which there is a shortage of local labor."
The senses are:
1. definition=the accumulation of knowledge or skill that results from direct participation in events or activities
2. definition=the content of direct observation or participation in an event
3. definition=an event as apprehended

In the sentence, "experience shows" means that the accumulated knowledge over time demonstrates a fact. "Experience" here refers to what has been learned from past events, which corresponds to sense 1.

Sense 2 is about a specific observation or participation (e.g., a religious experience).
Sense 3 is about an event as apprehended (e.g., a surprising experience).

Therefore, sense 1 is the correct one.

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

Sentence: But experience shows that in reality immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than <t>replacements</t> of, local labor, exercising trades in which there is a shortage of local labor.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another | examples=replacing the star will not be easy
2. definition=someone who takes the place of another person
3. definition=an event in which one thing is substituted for another | examples=the replacement of lost blood by a transfusion of donor blood
4. definition=a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
5. definition=filling again by supplying what has been used up
6. definition=a person who follows next in order | examples=he was President Lincoln's successor

reasoning_content:
The sentence uses "replacements" in the context of "immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local labor".
"Replacements" refers to people (immigrants) taking the place of other people (local labor).
Sense 1: act of furnishing (abstract, act) - not matching the plural noun "replacements" referring to people.
Sense 2: someone who takes the place of another person - matches "immigrants" taking the place of "local labor".
Sense 3: event - not matching.
Sense 4: a person or thing - could be, but "immigrants" are definitely "someone" (persons). Let's check 2 vs 4.
Wait, sense 2: "someone who takes the place of another person". Sense 4: "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another".
Usually, WordNet sense 2 for "replacement, replacement worker, substitute" is "someone who takes the place of another person". WordNet sense 4 for "substitute, replacement" is "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another".
Wait, let's look at the given senses closely.
Sense 2: definition=someone who takes the place of another person
Sense 4: definition=a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
Since immigrants are people, both 2 and 4 fit grammatically. Let's see the exact WordNet senses.
In WordNet 3.0:
Noun
1: replacement, replacing -- the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another
2: substitute, replacement -- a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
3: replacement, replacing -- the event of substituting one thing for another
4: successor, replacement -- a person who follows next in order
5: replacement, renewal -- filling again by supplying what has been used up
6: replacement, substitute, stand-in, relief, reliever, backup, backup man, fill-in -- someone who takes the place of another (as in the case of a person missing from a duty post)

Wait, the given list:
1. definition=the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another | examples=replacing the star will not be easy -> WN 1
2. definition=someone who takes the place of another person -> WN 6
3. definition=an event in which one thing is substituted for another | examples=the replacement of lost blood by a transfusion of donor blood -> WN 3
4. definition=a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another -> WN 2
5. definition=filling again by supplying what has been used up -> WN 5
6. definition=a person who follows next in order | examples=he was President Lincoln's successor -> WN 4

Which sense is it? "rather than replacements of, local labor"
"Replacements" here means "someone who takes the place of another person" or "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another".
In WordNet, sense 6 (someone who takes the place of another person) usually refers to a stand-in, relief, substitute player.
Wait, sense 2 (a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another) is more general and applies to "replacements of local labor" (people taking the place of other people in the labor market).
Actually, let's consider the phrase "replacements of local labor".
WN sense 2 for "replacement": substitute, replacement -- a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another.
WN sense 6 for "replacement": replacement, substitute, stand-in, relief, reliever, backup, backup man, fill-in -- someone who takes the place of another (as in the case of a person missing from a duty post).

Is it sense 2 or sense 4 in the prompt?
In the prompt:
Sense 2: someone who takes the place of another person.
Sense 4: a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another.

Let's check which WordNet sense is being used.
"rather than replacements of, local labor" - they are taking the place of local labor. Is it sense 2 or 4?
In many dictionaries, "replacement" as a person is defined as "a person or thing that takes the place of another" (sense 4 in the prompt) or "someone who takes the place of another person" (sense 2 in the prompt).
Let's look at the WordNet senses for "replacement":
1: the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another
2: an event in which one thing is substituted for another
3: a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
4: a person who follows next in order
5: filling again by supplying what has been used up
6: someone who takes the place of another person

Wait, the prompt's order:
1. act of furnishing...
2. someone who takes the place of another person
3. event in which one thing is substituted...
4. a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
5. filling again...
6. a person who follows next in order

Does "replacements" in this context mean sense 2 or sense 4?
Sense 2 specifies "someone who takes the place of another person". "Immigrants" are people, "local labor" are people.
Sense 4 says "a person or thing".
Usually, WordNet sense ordering might have "a person or thing" as the more general sense (substitute), and "someone who takes the place of another person" as the specific sense (stand-in).
But let's look at the wording: "rather than replacements of, local labor". It means they do not replace local labor, they complement them. "Replacements" means people who replace. So "someone who takes the place of another person" (sense 2) or "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another" (sense 4).
Which one is better? "someone who takes the place of another person" specifically applies to people, which matches "immigrants" and "local labor".
However, "replacements" in this context might be mapped to WordNet 3.0 sense 2 ("substitute, replacement -- a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another").
Let's search for the exact sentence. "But experience shows that in reality immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local labor, exercising trades in which there is a shortage of local labor."
This is a quote from a book or paper, maybe OECD or something.
In WordNet, sense 2 (prompt's sense 4) is "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another".
Sense 6 (prompt's sense 2) is "someone who takes the place of another person".
Wait, if it's WordNet, sense 2 is usually "substitute, replacement" (a person or thing), sense 6 is "replacement, substitute..." (someone who takes the place of another person). The prompt's order is:
1 = WN 1
2 = WN 6
3 = WN 3
4 = WN 2
5 = WN 5
6 = WN 4
Why would the prompt's order be like this? Maybe from a specific WSD dataset like SemCor.
In SemCor, "replacement" instances:
"replacing the star will not be easy" -> sense 1
"the replacement of lost blood by a transfusion of donor blood" -> sense 3
"he was President Lincoln's successor" -> sense 4 (which is sense 6 here)
What about "someone who takes the place of another person" vs "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another"?
Wait, if it's from WordNet 3.0:
Sense 1: the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another
Sense 2: an event in which one thing is substituted for another
Sense 3: a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
Sense 4: a person who follows next in order
Sense 5: filling again by supplying what has been used up
Sense 6: someone who takes the place of another person
The prompt order is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. So the prompt's order is different from WordNet 3.0's. The prompt has "someone who takes the place of another person" as sense 2 and "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another" as sense 4.
Wait! If the prompt has sense 2 as "someone who takes the place of another person", and sense 4 as "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another".
Which one fits "replacements" here? "replacements of local labor". The immigrants are taking the place of local labor. This is exactly "someone who takes the place of another person". But it could also be "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another".
Actually, "replacement of local labor" implies substituting local labor. "Replacements" here means substitutes. Sense 4 says "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another". Sense 2 says "someone who takes the place of another person".
Let's consider the typical SemCor mapping.
In SemCor, the word "replacement" is mostly tagged as `replacement%1:04:00::` (the act of furnishing) or `replacement%1:11:00::` (a person or thing).
Let's find the exact WordNet senses for "replacement":
%1:04:00:: the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another
%1:11:00:: an event in which one thing is substituted for another
%1:18:00:: a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
%1:18:01:: someone who takes the place of another person
Wait, %1:18:00:: is "substitute, replacement" (a person or thing). %1:18:01:: is "replacement, substitute, stand-in..." (someone who takes the place of another person).
If the text is from a WSD dataset, "replacements" referring to immigrants taking jobs might be tagged as %1:18:00:: (a person or thing) because it's the general sense of substitute, or %1:18:01:: because they are people taking the place of other people.
However, "rather than replacements of, local labor" is parallel with "complementary to". Immigrants are complementary to local labor, rather than replacements of local labor. They are people taking the place of other people.
Let's look closely at "someone who takes the place of another person". It implies a specific person taking the place of another specific person (like a stand-in, a substitute teacher, a replacement player). In this sentence, immigrants are taking the place of local labor in general, not a specific person. "Local labor" is a collective noun. Thus, "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another" (sense 4) might be more appropriate because "another" can refer to "another thing" or "another person" in a general sense, whereas "another person" implies a direct personal substitution.
Wait, "another person" in sense 2 might restrict it to specific individuals.
Let's check WordNet examples for sense 6 (someone who takes the place of another person): "someone who takes the place of another (as in the case of a person missing from a duty post)". This supports the "specific person" idea.
Sense 2 (a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another): "electricity could substitute for gas", "a replacement for the worn-out television set". This is a general substitute.
In the sentence, immigrants substitute for local labor in general. This is a general substitute, so sense 4 ("a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another") fits better.
But wait, "replacements of local labor" - "local labor" is the thing being replaced. So they are substitutes for local labor.
Let me double check the prompt's sense numbers:
Sense 2: definition=someone who takes the place of another person
Sense 4: definition=a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another

Is there any reason to choose 2 over 4?
If I look at the definitions:
Sense 2 says "another person".
Sense 4 says "another".
In "replacements of local labor", "local labor" is a collective entity, not "another person". Therefore, sense 4 ("another") is more accurate than sense 2 ("another person").
Wait, let's think about if it's sense 2 because immigrants are people. But sense 4 includes "a person or thing". Since immigrants are people, they fall under "person" in "person or thing". They take the place of "another" (local labor, which is another entity). Sense 2 specifically says "takes the place of another person". "Local labor" is a collective noun, representing a workforce, not a specific "another person". So sense 4 seems broader and more appropriate.

Let's test this with another perspective.
Could "replacement" here be the act? "rather than replacements of local labor". "complementary to... replacements of". They are parallel. "immigrants are complementary to... rather than replacements of...". "Immigrants" is the subject, "complementary" is adjective, "replacements" is noun. They are acting as replacements. So it's a noun referring to the people. Sense 2 or 4.
Sense 2: "someone who takes the place of another person"
Sense 4: "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another"
Which WordNet sense does "replacement" have in this context?
Usually, in WSD, "replacement" meaning "substitute" (person or thing) is sense 2 in WordNet (WN 3.0: 2: substitute, replacement -- a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another). Wait, WN 3.0 sense 2 is "an event in which one thing is substituted for another". WN 3.0 sense 3 is "substitute, replacement -- a person or thing...".
Let's check WordNet 3.0 for "replacement":
Noun
1: replacement, replacing -- the act of furnishing an equivalent person or thing in the place of another; "replacing the star will not be easy"
2: replacement, replacing -- the event of substituting one thing for another; "the replacement of lost blood by a transfusion of donor blood"
3: substitute, replacement -- a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another
4: successor, replacement -- a person who follows next in order; "he was President Lincoln's successor"
5: replacement, renewal -- filling again by supplying what has been used up
6: replacement, substitute, stand-in, relief, reliever, backup, backup man, fill-in -- someone who takes the place of another (as in the case of a person missing from a duty post)

So the prompt's senses correspond to:
1 = WN 1
2 = WN 6
3 = WN 2
4 = WN 3
5 = WN 5
6 = WN 4

Wait, if the prompt's sense 4 is WN 3, then it's the general "substitute" sense.
If the prompt's sense 2 is WN 6, then it's the "stand-in, relief" sense.
Immigrants replacing local labor is a general substitution, not a specific "person missing from a duty post" stand-in.
So sense 4 (WN 3) makes the most sense.

Let's re-verify the prompt's sense 2: "someone who takes the place of another person". If someone uses this sense, they might focus on "immigrants are people replacing people". But the standard WSD annotation for this type of substitution is WN 3 (prompt's sense 4).
Let's see if there are any other interpretations.
"Immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local labor"
Could it be sense 1? "the act of furnishing" -> "rather than the act of furnishing an equivalent of local labor"? No, "immigrants are" -> they are the replacements.
So it's either 2 or 4.
I will bet on 4 because "replacements of local labor" treats "local labor" as a whole (a thing/collective entity), not "another person". Sense 4 allows for "another" (which can be a thing or collective), while sense 2 restricts to "another person". Furthermore, sense 2 in WordNet is typically for stand-ins and fill-ins (duty post), which doesn't fit the socioeconomic context of immigrant labor vs local labor. Sense 4 is the standard "substitute" sense, which applies perfectly to immigrants substituting for local labor.

Let me double check the definitions.
Sense 2: "someone who takes the place of another person"
Sense 4: "a person or thing that takes or can take the place of another"
"another" in sense 4 refers to "another person or thing".
"local labor" is a collective entity, so "another" fits well. "another person" in sense 2 implies an individual.
Also, the wording "complementary to... replacements of..." uses "replacements" as a general substitute.
I will output 4.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the user's request:** The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "labor" (marked with <t></t>) in a specific sentence. I need to return *only* the number of the correct sense.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "But experience shows that in reality immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local <t>labor</t>, exercising trades in which there is a shortage of local labor."

3.  **Analyze the context of "labor" in the sentence:**
    *   The sentence discusses immigrants and their relationship to "local labor".
    *   It mentions "exercising trades" and "shortage of local labor".
    *   It contrasts immigrants with "local labor".
    *   "Local labor" refers to the people who work, specifically the workforce available in a specific area.
    *   The phrase "shortage of skilled labor" in Sense 1 is very similar to "shortage of local labor" in the text.

4.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** "a social class comprising those who do manual labor or work for wages".
        *   Examples: "there is a shortage of skilled labor in this field".
        *   Fit: The sentence talks about "local labor" (the local workforce/people) and mentions a "shortage". This fits perfectly. It refers to the body of workers.

    *   **Sense 2:** "productive work (especially physical work done for wages)".
        *   Examples: "his labor did not require a great deal of skill".
        *   Fit: This refers to the *activity* of working. While related, the sentence refers to "local labor" as an entity that immigrants complement or replace. You replace a person/worker, not the abstract concept of work itself in this context. Also, the phrase "shortage of local labor" implies a shortage of people/workers, not a shortage of the activity.

    *   **Sense 3:** "concluding state of pregnancy...".
        *   Fit: Completely irrelevant.

    *   **Sense 4:** "an organized attempt by workers to improve their status...".
        *   Fit: This usually refers to "labor" as a movement or "Labor" (often capitalized). The sentence discusses local workers vs immigrants, not a union movement.

    *   **Sense 5:** "a political party...".
        *   Fit: Refers to the British Labour Party. Irrelevant context.

    *   **Sense 6:** "the federal department...".
        *   Fit: Refers to the US Department of Labor. Irrelevant context.

    *   **Sense 7:** "any piece of work that is undertaken or attempted".
        *   Fit: Synonyms would be "task" or "project". "Shortage of local task" doesn't make sense. "Replacement of local task" doesn't make sense. It implies people.

5.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2 closely:**
    *   Sense 1 refers to the *workers* (the collective noun for the workforce).
    *   Sense 2 refers to the *work* (the effort/task).
    *   In the sentence: "immigrants are much more complementary to, rather than replacements of, local <t>labor</t>".
        *   Are immigrants complementary to the *work*? No, they perform work.
        *   Are immigrants replacements of the *work*? No, they replace workers.
        *   Also, "shortage of local labor". A shortage implies a lack of people (supply of workers). A shortage of "work" would mean not enough jobs, which contradicts the idea of a shortage that immigrants fill.
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct interpretation. It refers to the workforce/class of workers.

6.  **Final verification:** The example in Sense 1 ("shortage of skilled labor") matches the phrasing in the prompt ("shortage of local labor"). This confirms Sense 1.

7.  **Format output:** The user requested "Return only the number of the correct sense."

    Result: 1
