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

Sentence: A test using new "genetic probes "showed that little Will Quinlan had not inherited a damaged retinoblastoma supressor gene and, therefore, faced no more risk than other <t>children</t> of developing the rare cancer.

Senses:
1. definition=a young person of either sex | examples=she writes books for children
2. definition=a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age | examples=they had three children
3. definition=an immature childish person | examples=he remained a child in practical matters as long as he lived
4. definition=a member of a clan or tribe | examples=the children of Israel

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "child" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "A test using new "genetic probes "showed that little Will Quinlan had not inherited a damaged retinoblastoma supressor gene and, therefore, faced no more risk than other <t>children</t> of developing the rare cancer."

Let me analyze the context:
- The sentence is talking about Will Quinlan, who is described as "little"
- It compares his risk to that of "other children"
- The context is about genetic risk of developing cancer
- "Children" here refers to young people/offspring in general

Now let's look at the senses:
1. "a young person of either sex" - examples: "she writes books for children"
2. "a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age" - examples: "they had three children"
3. "an immature childish person" - examples: "he remained a child in practical matters"
4. "a member of a clan or tribe" - examples: "the children of Israel"

In the sentence, "other children" refers to other young people (kids) in general, not specifically someone's offspring (sense 2), not immature people (sense 3), and not members of a tribe (sense 4).

The phrase "other children" here means other young people/kids. This matches sense 1: "a young person of either sex".

Wait, let me reconsider. Sense 2 is "a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age". Could this fit? The sentence says "other children" in the context of comparing risk levels. It's comparing Will Quinlan to other young people/offspring.

But looking at the example for sense 1: "she writes books for children" - this refers to children as a general category of young people.

Looking at sense 2: "they had three children" - this refers to offspring.

In the given sentence, "other children" means other young people in general (who are not Will Quinlan). It's not specifically referring to offspring of particular parents in this context, but rather to the general population of young people.

However, sense 1 and sense 2 are quite similar. Let me think about the distinction:
- Sense 1 emphasizes "young person"
- Sense 2 emphasizes "offspring" (relationship to parents)

In the sentence: "faced no more risk than other children" - this is comparing the risk to that of the general population of young people. It's using "children" to mean young human beings.

The word "little" earlier in the sentence ("little Will Quinlan") suggests we're talking about a young child, and "other children" would mean other young kids.

Sense 1 seems most appropriate: "a young person of either sex".

But let me double-check if sense 2 could fit. If it meant "offspring", it would imply "offspring of any age", but the context suggests we're talking about young people (since Will is described as "little"). Also, the comparison is to the general class of children (young people), not specifically to other people's offspring.

Actually, looking carefully at the sentence structure: "faced no more risk than other children of developing the rare cancer."

This is saying he faces the same risk as other children (young people) face of developing this cancer.

Sense 1 is the best fit.

Wait, I should also consider if sense 4 applies? "Children of Israel" - no, there's no tribal/clan context here.

Sense 3? "Immature childish person" - no, this is clearly about actual children/young people, not adults acting childish.

So it's between 1 and 2.

Sense 1: "a young person of either sex"
Sense 2: "a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age"

The key difference is that sense 2 includes adult children (offspring of any age), while sense 1 focuses on young people.

Given that Will is described as "little", and we're talking about risk of developing cancer in children (which typically affects young people in this context - retinoblastoma is a childhood cancer), sense 1 seems correct.

Also, the phrase "other children" in this medical/genetic context refers to other young individuals in the population, not specifically other offspring.

I believe the answer is 1.

 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "develop" is used in the given sentence.

Let me analyze the sentence:
"A test using new 'genetic probes' showed that little Will Quinlan had not inherited a damaged retinoblastoma supressor gene and, therefore, faced no more risk than other children of <t>developing</t> the rare cancer."

The key context is "developing the rare cancer" - specifically referring to a child developing (getting/contracting) cancer.

Let me look at the definitions:

1. make something new - not this, the cancer isn't being created by the child intentionally
2. work out - no
3. gain through experience - no
4. come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes) - This could be close, as getting cancer is a physical change/developing a physical condition
5. come into existence; take on form or shape - This is about things originating/coming into existence. "A new religious movement originated..." - This could fit as the cancer coming into existence in the body?
6. change the use of - no
7. elaborate - no
8. create by training - no
9. be gradually disclosed - no
10. grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process... - This mentions natural growth, differentiation. Examples: "A flower developed on the branch". This seems like biological growth/development.
11. become technologically advanced - no
12. cause to grow - no (this is transitive)
13. generate gradually - no
14. grow emotionally or mature - no
15. make visible by means of chemical solutions - no
16. superimpose... - no
17. move one's pieces... - no (chess)
18. move into a strategically... - no (chess)
19. elaborate by the unfolding... - no (music)
20. happen - "Report the news as it develops" - this is about events happening/occurring. But "developing cancer" is more about the disease manifesting/growing in the body, not just "happening"
21. expand in the form of a series - no

Between 4, 5, and 10:

Definition 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - examples: "He grew a beard", "The situation developed quickly" (wait, that's not the example given, let me check). The example given is "He grew a beard". This is about growing/developing physical features.

Definition 5: "come into existence; take on form or shape" - examples: "A new religious movement originated in that country", "A love that developed from a long friendship". Wait, the example given is "A new religious movement originated in that country". This is about things starting/beginning.

Definition 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment" - examples: "A flower developed on the branch", "The modern language developed from Latin".

Actually, looking at medical contexts, when we say someone "develops" cancer, we usually mean sense 4 or 10, or possibly 20.

Let me look more carefully at definition 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)". The example is "He grew a beard". This suggests physical changes to the body.

Definition 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process..." Examples include biological growth like flowers.

Definition 20: "happen" - Example: "Report the news as it develops". This is about events unfolding.

But "developing cancer" is a medical condition coming into being or manifesting in the body. This is usually classified under senses related to disease onset.

Looking at the definitions again, definition 4 seems most appropriate: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)". Getting cancer is undergoing a physical change/developing a physical condition.

Definition 5 is about things coming into existence in a general sense.

Definition 10 is about growth/evolution over time.

Actually, looking at WordNet or similar lexical databases (which this seems to be based on), "develop" when used with diseases usually maps to sense 4 or a specific medical sense.

But let me check: if the senses are from WordNet:

WordNet 3.0 senses for develop (verb):

1. make something new...
2. work out...
3. gain through experience...
4. come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)
5. come into existence; take on form or shape
6. change the use of...
7. elaborate...
8. create by training...
9. be gradually disclosed...
10. grow, progress, unfold...
11. become technologically advanced
12. cause to grow...
13. generate gradually...
14. grow emotionally or mature
15. make visible...
16. superimpose...
17. move one's pieces...
18. move into a strategically...
19. elaborate by the unfolding...
20. happen
21. expand...

In the sentence "developing the rare cancer", this means contracting/getting the disease.

In WordNet, the sense "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" (sense 4) includes things like "He developed a new allergy" or similar medical conditions.

Sense 20 "happen" is more for events unfolding, like "the story developed".

Sense 5 "come into existence" is more abstract or for movements/origins.

So I think the answer is 4.

Wait, let me double-check by looking at the examples provided for each sense in the prompt:

Sense 4 examples: "He grew a beard"
Sense 5 examples: "A new religious movement originated in that country"
Sense 10 examples: "A flower developed on the branch"
Sense 20 examples: "Report the news as it develops"

"Cancer developed" or "developing cancer" is most analogous to growing a beard (physical attribute/condition) or a flower growing (biological growth).

Actually, in medical dictionaries, "develop" when referring to diseases often means "to become affected with" or "to contract".

Between sense 4 and sense 10:
- Sense 4 focuses on coming to have physical features/attributes
- Sense 10 focuses on growing, progressing, unfolding through natural processes

Cancer developing is a biological process unfolding (cells growing), so sense 10 might work.

But sense 4 is "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)". Getting cancer is definitely undergoing a change of physical attributes.

However, looking at standard WordNet mappings, "develop" for diseases is typically sense 4.

Let me verify with the specific phrasing: "faced no more risk than other children of developing the rare cancer"

This is about the risk of contracting/getting the cancer.

Sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - This includes diseases and medical conditions.

Sense 20: "happen" - This is too general.

Sense 5: "come into existence" - The cancer would be coming into existence in the body, but this is usually used for abstract things or movements.

Actually, looking carefully at WordNet 3.0:
Sense 4 (verb): "grow, develop" - "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - "He grew a beard"

Sense 20 (verb): "develop" - "happen" - "Report the news as it develops"

Sense 21 (verb): "develop, expand" - "expand in the form of a series" - math term

Sense 25? No, looking at the list provided:
10. grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment

Sense 10 example: "A flower developed on the branch"

Developing cancer is similar to a flower developing - it's a biological growth/process.

But sense 4 is also biological: "He grew a beard"

The distinction in WordNet is that sense 4 is often for specific physical features that appear (beard, callus, etc.), while sense 10 is for gradual evolution/growth of organisms, flowers, languages, etc.

But cancer is a disease that develops/grows in the body. Both could fit.

However, I recall that in many lexical sense disambiguation tasks, "develop cancer" maps to sense 4 or a similar "contract/acquire disease" sense.

Let me reconsider the specific wording of sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)"

And sense 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment"

"Developing cancer" is undergoing a change in physical health status (sense 4 interpretation) OR it's a biological process of the disease growing (sense 10 interpretation).

But looking at the example for sense 4 "He grew a beard" - this is about the subject growing/developing something on their body.

For sense 10 "A flower developed on the branch" - this is about something growing on the subject.

Cancer developing is the cancer growing in the person, so it's like the flower on the branch - sense 10?

Wait, the subject is "children". "children of developing the rare cancer" - so the children are the ones developing the cancer. So it's the children undergoing/developing the condition.

"He grew a beard" - he developed a beard.
"child developing cancer" - child develops cancer.

This seems like sense 4.

But let me check if there's a specific sense for diseases. Looking at the list again, I don't see one specifically labeled for diseases.

Sense 20: "happen" - "Report the news as it develops" - this is intransitive, about events unfolding.

The sentence uses "developing" with an object "the rare cancer", so it's transitive (or rather, in the "of developing" construction, but "develop" takes "the rare cancer" as its object in the gerund phrase).

Wait: "of developing the rare cancer" - here "developing" is transitive with object "cancer".

Which senses are transitive?
1. make something new (transitive)
2. work out (transitive)
3. gain through experience - "I acquired..." - this example is intransitive or transitive? "acquire" can be both. Definition says "gain through experience"
4. come to have... - this is typically intransitive? "He grew a beard" - transitive usage.
5. come into existence - intransitive
6. change the use... - transitive
7. elaborate... - transitive
8. create by training... - transitive
9. be gradually disclosed... - intransitive
10. grow, progress... - intransitive? Examples: "A flower developed..."
11. become technologically advanced - intransitive
12. cause to grow... - transitive
13. generate gradually... - transitive
14. grow emotionally... - intransitive
15. make visible... - transitive
16. superimpose... - transitive
17. move one's pieces... - transitive
18. move into... - transitive
19. elaborate by... - transitive
20. happen - intransitive
21. expand... - transitive

So "developing cancer" with cancer as object - must be a transitive sense.

Sense 4 can be transitive: "develop a rash", "develop a fever", "develop cancer".

Sense 12 is "cause to grow" - "develop grain" - this is causing something to grow, not getting a disease.

Sense 1: "make something new" - not right for cancer.

Sense 13: "generate gradually" - not quite.

So it's likely sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)"

Or possibly sense 4 is the intended answer.

I should verify by checking if "cancer" is considered a "physical feature or attribute". Medical conditions are often categorized under physical attributes in these lexical databases.

Actually, looking at the provided example for sense 4: "He grew a beard" - and the definition "undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)"

And sense 10 example: "A flower developed on the branch" - definition mentions "natural growth"

Between these two, "developing cancer" is closer to "growing a beard" (something happening to the person's body/health) than "a flower developing" (something growing on the subject).

Also, in many standardized tests and WSD datasets, "develop" + disease maps to sense 4 (or the equivalent "grow, develop" sense in WordNet).

Therefore, I believe the answer is 4.

Wait, I want to check if sense 20 could be it. Definition 20: "happen". Example: "Report the news as it develops". This is "the news develops" - intransitive. Our sentence has "developing the rare cancer" - transitive. So 20 is out.

Sense 5: "come into existence" - intransitive.

So it must be a transitive sense that fits disease acquisition.

Sense 4 is the best fit.

Final check: Could it be sense 25? No, there are only 21 senses listed.

So answer: 4

 The user wants me to identify which sense of the word "cancer" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "A test using new "genetic probes "showed that little Will Quinlan had not inherited a damaged retinoblastoma supressor gene and, therefore, faced no more risk than other children of developing the rare <t>cancer</t>."

Let me analyze the context:
- The sentence talks about a medical test involving "genetic probes"
- It mentions a "damaged retinoblastoma supressor gene" (retinoblastoma is a malignant tumor of the retina)
- It mentions "risk... of developing the rare cancer"
- This is clearly referring to a disease/medical condition

Now let's look at the senses:
1. definition=any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division; it may spread to other parts of the body through the lymphatic system or the blood stream
   - This matches the medical context. Retinoblastoma is a type of cancer (malignant tumor), and the sentence is talking about developing this disease.

2. definition=(astrology) a person who is born while the sun is in Cancer
   - This is about astrology/zodiac signs referring to a person. Not relevant here.

3. definition=a small zodiacal constellation in the northern hemisphere; between Leo and Gemini
   - This is about the constellation. Not relevant.

4. definition=the fourth sign of the zodiac; the sun is in this sign from about June 21 to July 22
   - This is about the zodiac sign. Not relevant.

5. definition=type genus of the family Cancridae
   - This is about the genus of crabs (the animal). Not relevant.

The context is clearly medical - talking about genes, inherited risk, and developing a disease. So sense 1 is the correct answer.

The answer should be just the number: 1

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "make" is used in the sentence: "It <t>made</t> our New Year," says Mr. Quinlan.

 Let me analyze the sentence. The phrase "made our New Year" suggests that something caused their New Year to be good/special/enjoyable. It's similar to the idiom "make someone's day" which means to cause someone's day to be enjoyable or special.

 Looking at the definitions:

 1. engage in - no, this is about activities
 2. give certain properties to something - no, not quite
 3. make or cause to be or to become - this is close but very general
 4. cause to do - no, it's not causing an action
 5. give rise to; cause to happen - possible, but "make our New Year" implies making it good/special
 6. create or manufacture - no
 7. make, formulate in the mind - no
 8. compel - no
 9. create by artistic means - no
 10. earn - no
 11. create or design - no
 12. compose or represent - no
 13. reach a goal - no
 14. be capable of being changed - no
 15. make by shaping - no
 16. perform or carry out - no
 17. make by combining - no
 18. change from one form - no
 19. act to acquire - no
 20. charge with a function - no
 21. achieve a point - no
 22. reach a destination - no
 23. institute - no
 24. carry out or commit - no
 25. form by assembling - no
 26. organize - no
 27. put in order - no
 28. head into - no
 29. have a bowel movement - definitely not
 30. undergo fabrication - no
 31. be suitable for - no
 32. add up to - no
 33. amount to - no
 34. constitute the essence of - no, "clothes make the man" is different
 35. appear to begin - no
 36. proceed along - no
 37. reach in time - no
 38. gather and light - no
 39. prepare for eating - no
 40. induce to have sex - no
 41. assure the success of - this is close, but let me check
 42. represent fictitiously - no
 43. consider as being - no
 44. calculate as being - no
 45. cause to be enjoyable or pleasurable - "make my day" - this looks like the best match!
 46. favor the development of - no
 47. develop into - no
 48. behave in a certain way - no
 49. eliminate urine - no

 Looking at sense 45: "cause to be enjoyable or pleasurable | examples=make my day"

 The sentence "It made our New Year" is very similar to the idiom "make my day" - meaning it caused their New Year to be enjoyable or special.

 Let me also check sense 41: "assure the success of" - this is also plausible but slightly different. "Make our New Year" could mean assured the success of our New Year, but "cause to be enjoyable" seems more directly parallel to "make my day."

 Actually, looking more carefully at the example for 45: "make my day" - this is exactly the idiom. And "It made our New Year" is using "make" in the same sense - causing the New Year to be enjoyable/special/good.

 So the answer should be 45.

 Wait, let me reconsider if there are other possibilities.

 Sense 34: "constitute the essence of" - examples: "Clothes make the man" - this is similar grammatically but "It made our New Year" doesn't mean the essence of the New Year was "it".

 Sense 2: "give certain properties to something" - examples: "get someone mad" - this is about causing a state.

 Sense 3: "make or cause to be or to become" - examples: "make a mess" - this is very general causative.

 But sense 45 specifically has the example "make my day" which is semantically and syntactically parallel to "make our New Year" (where "our New Year" is the object, and the meaning is that it caused the New Year to be good/enjoyable).

 Therefore, the answer is 45.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "say" is used in the sentence: "It made our New Year, " says Mr. Quinlan.

Let me look at the sentence structure:
- "It made our New Year," says Mr. Quinlan.
- This is a reporting construction where someone (Mr. Quinlan) is speaking or expressing words.
- Mr. Quinlan is expressing in words that "It made our New Year."

Now let's look at the options:

1. definition=express in words | examples=He said that he wanted to marry her
   - This looks like a direct match. Mr. Quinlan is expressing something in words.

2. definition=report or maintain | examples=He alleged that he was the victim of a crime
   - This is more about alleging or claiming something, often with a connotation of asserting without proof. While "say" can mean this, in the given sentence, Mr. Quinlan is simply expressing an opinion or statement, not necessarily reporting or maintaining something in the sense of alleging.

3. definition=express a supposition | examples=Let us say that he did not tell the truth
   - This is about hypothetical situations ("let's say"). Not applicable here.

4. definition=have or contain a certain wording or form | examples=The passage reads as follows
   - This is about how text is written, not about someone speaking.

5. definition=give instructions to or direct somebody to do something with authority | examples=I said to him to go home
   - This is about commanding or instructing. The sentence doesn't show Mr. Quinlan giving instructions.

6. definition=speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way | examples=She pronounces French words in a funny way
   - This is about the manner of pronunciation, not the act of stating something.

7. definition=communicate or express nonverbally | examples=What does this painting say?
   - This is about nonverbal communication. Mr. Quinlan is speaking verbally here.

8. definition=utter aloud | examples=She said `Hello' to everyone in the office
   - This is about speaking aloud specific words. While related, the example shows direct speech ("Hello"), whereas the sentence shows indirect/quoted speech. But sense 1 is more about expressing thoughts/ideas in words.

9. definition=state as one's opinion or judgement; declare | examples=I say let's forget this whole business
   - This is close. It's about stating an opinion. The example "I say let's forget this" is a declaration or proposal.

10. definition=recite or repeat a fixed text | examples=Say grace
    - This is about ritual recitation. Not applicable.

11. definition=indicate | examples=The clock says noon
    - This is about inanimate objects showing information. Not applicable.

Now comparing sense 1 and sense 9:

Sense 1: "express in words" - general definition for communicating verbally.
Sense 9: "state as one's opinion or judgement; declare" - more specific to giving opinions or making declarations.

The sentence "It made our New Year," says Mr. Quinlan is a standard journalistic or narrative way of attributing speech to someone. Mr. Quinlan is expressing his thoughts in words.

Looking at the example for sense 1: "He said that he wanted to marry her" - this is indirect speech.
Looking at the example for sense 9: "I say let's forget this whole business" - this is a suggestion/opinion.

The sentence shows Mr. Quinlan expressing that something made their New Year (presumably a good thing). This is him expressing something in words.

In dictionary definitions, sense 1 is usually the primary sense - to express in words, to speak, to state. The example "He said that he wanted to marry her" matches the structure of reported speech.

Sense 9 is more specific about stating an opinion or judgment, often with a sense of proposing or declaring formally.

The sentence "It made our New Year," says Mr. Quinlan is simply reporting what Mr. Quinlan expressed in words. This aligns best with sense 1.

However, let me reconsider. The phrase "It made our New Year" is an opinion or judgment about something. So sense 9 could also fit.

But looking at standard WordNet or similar dictionary senses (which this appears to be based on):

Sense 1 is typically the most general: "express in words"
Sense 9 is: "state as one's opinion or judgement; declare"

The example for sense 1 uses "that": "He said that he wanted to marry her"
The sentence has: "says Mr. Quinlan" with the quote "It made our New Year"

Actually, looking at the example for sense 8: "She said `Hello' to everyone in the office" - this involves direct quotation.

But sense 1 says "express in words" and the example is indirect speech with "that".
Sense 8 says "utter aloud" and the example is direct speech with backticks.

The sentence has quotation marks (implied by the context), so it's direct speech.

Let me look more carefully:

The sentence is: "It made our New Year, " says Mr. Quinlan.

This is a standard attribution tag. In journalistic style, this is common.

Between sense 1 and sense 8:
- Sense 1: express in words (general)
- Sense 8: utter aloud (specific to vocalizing)

But actually, looking at standard dictionary entries for "say":

The most common sense is "to speak, utter, or express in words" which would be sense 1.

Sense 8 "utter aloud" seems more specific to the physical act of vocalizing specific words.

But in the context of "Mr. Quinlan says [quote]", this is the standard reporting sense.

Let me check if there's a pattern in how these senses are organized. This looks like it could be from WordNet or a similar lexical database.

In WordNet, the senses of "say" include:
1. say, state, tell - express in words
2. allege, aver, say - report or maintain
3. suppose, say - express a supposition
4. read - have or contain a certain wording or form
5. order, tell, enjoin, say - give instructions
6. pronounce, articulate, enounce, sound out, enunciate, say - speak, pronounce, or utter
7. say - communicate or express nonverbally
8. say - utter aloud
9. say - state as one's opinion or judgement; declare
10. say - recite or repeat
11. say - indicate

Wait, sense 6 is "speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way" - that's about pronunciation.
Sense 8 is "utter aloud" - that's about vocalizing.

For the sentence "It made our New Year," says Mr. Quinlan, the word "says" is being used to introduce direct speech. This is the most common use of "say" - to express something in words.

Sense 1 is the best fit: "express in words"

The example for sense 1: "He said that he wanted to marry her" shows reported speech.
The example for sense 8: "She said `Hello' to everyone" shows direct speech.

But the definition of sense 1 is "express in words" which covers both direct and indirect speech.

Actually, looking at the distinction:
- Sense 1: express in words (general)
- Sense 8: utter aloud (specific to saying specific words out loud)

But in the sentence, Mr. Quinlan is expressing his opinion that "It made our New Year."

I think sense 1 is the primary sense and the correct answer. However, sense 9 "state as one's opinion or judgement" could also be argued.

Let me look at the examples again:
Sense 1: He said that he wanted to marry her
Sense 9: I say let's forget this whole business

The example for sense 9 uses "I say" to introduce a proposal or opinion. The sentence has "says Mr. Quinlan" introducing a statement of fact/opinion.

But the most general and accurate sense for standard reported speech is sense 1.

Actually, I should be careful. The user is asking for a specific numbered sense from a provided list. I need to determine which one is the best match.

Sentence: "It made our New Year, " says Mr. Quinlan.

This is a quotation attribution. Mr. Quinlan is the speaker who is being quoted.

Definition 1: express in words - This is the most general definition and fits.
Definition 8: utter aloud - This also fits as he is uttering words.

But definition 1 is usually the primary sense. Let me think about whether there's a distinction being made between these senses in this specific list.

Looking at sense 4: "have or contain a certain wording or form" - examples: "The passage reads as follows" - this is about written text having specific words.

Sense 6 is about pronunciation.

Sense 7 is about nonverbal communication.

Sense 11 is about indication (clocks, signs).

So the relevant ones are 1, 2, 8, and possibly 9.

Sense 2 is about alleging/maintaining (often with the connotation of claiming without proof, or formally asserting). Example: "He alleged that he was the victim" - this is stronger than just saying.

Sense 9 is about stating an opinion or judgment. The example "I say let's forget this" is using "say" to propose or declare an opinion.

In the sentence, Mr. Quinlan is expressing that something made their New Year. This is a statement of fact or opinion.

But the most common dictionary sense for this usage is sense 1.

However, looking at the example for sense 1 again: "He said that he wanted to marry her" - this uses "that" and is indirect speech.
The example for sense 8: "She said `Hello' to everyone" - uses direct speech (backticks representing quotes).

The target sentence uses direct speech (with quotation marks).

But definition 1 says "express in words" which encompasses both.
Definition 8 says "utter aloud" which is about vocalizing.

Actually, looking at standard WordNet glosses:
- Sense 1 (wordnet): express in words; "He said that he wanted to marry her"; "Tell me what is bothering you"
- Sense 8 (wordnet): utter aloud; "She said `Hello' to everyone in the office"

The distinction in WordNet is subtle. But looking at the target sentence structure with the subject "Mr. Quinlan" after the verb (says Mr. Quinlan), this is a standard reporting verb usage.

I think the answer is 1.

But wait - let me reconsider sense 9: "state as one's opinion or judgement; declare"
Example: "I say let's forget this whole business"

In the sentence, is Mr. Quinlan declaring something or just stating a fact? "It made our New Year" is a subjective statement (an opinion about what made their New Year special), so it could fit sense 9.

However, sense 1 is the broader category. Usually, in these types of questions, they want the most specific sense that applies, or the primary sense.

Let me look at the other senses to see the pattern:
3. express a supposition (let's say)
5. give instructions (tell someone to do something)
9. state as one's opinion or judgement (declare)

Sense 1 is the general "express in words."

In many lexical semantic tests, the answer for standard reported speech with "say" is sense 1.

The fact that the example for sense 1 uses "that" (indirect speech) shouldn't exclude direct speech, as "express in words" covers both.

But let's look at sense 8 again: "utter aloud" - the example has direct quotes.

If the system distinguishes between sense 1 and sense 8 based on direct vs indirect, then:
- Sense 1: indirect (with that)
- Sense 8: direct (quoted words)

The target has quoted words (implied by the quotation mark in the sentence: "It made our New Year, ").

Wait, the sentence shows: "It made our New Year, " says Mr. Quinlan.

The quote is cut off (with the comma), but it's clearly direct speech being attributed.

If sense 8 is specifically for uttering specific words aloud (direct speech), and sense 1 is for expressing the content (indirect speech), then sense 8 might be the answer.

But actually, looking at the WordNet database more carefully:
WordNet 3.1 senses for verb "say":
1. state, say, tell - express in words; "He said that he wanted to marry her"; "Tell me what is bothering you"
2. allege, aver, say - report or maintain; "He alleged that he was the victim of a crime"
3. suppose, say - express a supposition; "Let us say that he did not tell the truth"
4. read, say - have or contain a certain wording or form; "The passage reads as follows"
5. say - give instructions to or direct somebody to do something with authority; "I said to him to go home"
6. pronounce, articulate, enounce, sound out, enunciate, say - speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way; "She pronounces French words in a funny way"
7. say - communicate or express nonverbally; "What does this painting say?"
8. say - utter aloud; "She said `Hello' to everyone in the office"
9. say - state as one's opinion or judgement; declare; "I say let's forget this whole business"
10. say - recite or repeat a fixed text; "Say grace"; "Say one's prayers"
11. say - indicate; "The clock says noon"

Now, for sentence: "It made our New Year, " says Mr. Quinlan.

This is a direct quotation. The verb "says" introduces what Mr. Quinlan uttered.

Sense 8 is "utter aloud" with the example using direct quotes.
Sense 1 is "express in words" with the example using indirect speech (with "that").

However, sense 1 is the hypernym or more general category. But in WordNet, these are distinct senses.

Sense 9 is for stating an opinion or judgement. "It made our New Year" is an opinion.

But the most accurate answer is likely sense 1, as it's the primary sense.

Actually, looking at similar sentences in WordNet or SemCor corpus:
For direct speech attribution, sense 1 is typically used.

Wait, I should think about this more carefully. The user says "Return only the number of the correct sense."

This is likely from a word sense disambiguation dataset or task (like SemEval or similar).

In such tasks, for a sentence like "'Quote,' says Person", the sense is usually the main sense - sense 1.

Let me think about sense 9 again. "State as one's opinion or judgement; declare"
The example "I say let's forget this whole business" uses "I say" as a performative - the speaker is using "say" to introduce their proposal.

In the target sentence, Mr. Quinlan is reporting a fact (that something made their New Year), not necessarily declaring an opinion in the sense of "I say we should..."

Actually, "It made our New Year" is an assessment, so it is an opinion.

But I think sense 1 is still the best fit because:
1. It's the general definition for speaking/expressing verbally
2. The sentence is a standard report of speech
3. Sense 9 is more specific to cases where someone is declaring a judgment or proposal, often with "I say" as in the example

Let me check if there's any other clue. The word is marked as "says" (third person singular).

Sense 1 example: "He said" - matches the structure.
Sense 8 example: "She said" - also matches.
Sense 9 example: "I say" - first person, different structure.

The target is third person "says".

I think the answer is 1.

But I want to be thorough. Could it be sense 8?
Sense 8: "utter aloud" - specific to vocalizing words.
The example: "She said `Hello' to everyone in the office"

The target: "says Mr. Quinlan" introducing "It made our New Year"

Both involve direct speech. But sense 1 is broader and more commonly the correct sense for general "say" in reported speech.

Actually, looking at the distinction between sense 1 and sense 8 in WordNet:
Sense 1 (express in words): This is about communicating information verbally.
Sense 8 (utter aloud): This is about the physical act of speaking words out loud.

In journalistic attribution ("says Mr. Quinlan"), it's sense 1.

I'll go with 1.

Wait, I just realized something. Looking at the list again:
1. express in words
8. utter aloud
9. state as one's opinion or judgement

The example for 9 is: "I say let's forget this whole business"
This is using "say" to propose something.

The target sentence: "It made our New Year" - this is a statement of fact from Mr. Quinlan's perspective.

Actually, "It made our New Year" means "It made our New Year [special/good]" - this is an opinion about the value of something.

But still, sense 1 is the standard sense for this.

I recall that in WordNet, sense 1 is the most frequent sense and is used for general reported speech.

Therefore, the answer is: 1

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

Sentence: This test was the <t>first</t> to predict reliably whether an individual could expect to develop cancer.

Senses:
1. definition=preceding all others in time or space or degree | examples=the first house on the right
2. definition=indicating the beginning unit in a series
3. definition=serving to set in motion | examples=the magazine's inaugural issue
4. definition=serving to begin | examples=the beginning canto of the poem
5. definition=ranking above all others | examples=was first in her class
6. definition=highest in pitch or chief among parts or voices or instruments or orchestra sections | examples=first soprano

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "first" is used in the given sentence.

 Sentence: "This test was the <t>first</t> to predict reliably whether an individual could expect to develop cancer."

 Let me analyze the senses:

 1. "preceding all others in time or space or degree" - This refers to being before others chronologically or spatially. Example: "the first house on the right" (spatial), or "the first time" (temporal).

 2. "indicating the beginning unit in a series" - This refers to ordinal position (1st in a sequence).

 3. "serving to set in motion" - Examples include "inaugural issue" - something that initiates or starts something off.

 4. "serving to begin" - Examples include "beginning canto" - similar to #3 but perhaps more about marking the start.

 5. "ranking above all others" - Being the best or highest rank. Example: "was first in her class."

 6. "highest in pitch or chief among parts" - Musical context.

 Now looking at the sentence: "This test was the first to predict reliably..."

 This means this test preceded all other tests in being able to predict reliably. It's the earliest test to have this capability. It's about temporal precedence - coming before others in time.

 This aligns with sense 1: "preceding all others in time or space or degree."

 It's not about being #2 (beginning unit in a series) because it's not necessarily saying it's the first test in a series, but rather the first one to do something specific (predict reliably).

 It's not sense 3 or 4 (inaugural/beginning) because it's not setting something in motion in the sense of an inauguration, and it's not necessarily the beginning of a series.

 It's not sense 5 (ranking above all others) because the sentence isn't saying it's the best test, just that it came before others in achieving this capability.

 It's not sense 6 (musical).

 So the answer should be 1.

 Wait, let me reconsider. Could it be sense 3 or 4?

 Sense 3: "serving to set in motion" - "the magazine's inaugural issue" - this test could be seen as setting in motion the ability to predict cancer, but the definition says "serving to set in motion" which usually means initiating an institution, period, etc.

 Sense 4: "serving to begin" - "the beginning canto" - again, about starting something.

 But sense 1 "preceding all others in time" seems most accurate. The test came before other tests that could predict reliably.

 Actually, looking closely at sense 2: "indicating the beginning unit in a series" - this could also fit if we think of it as the first test (Test #1) in a series of tests. But the context suggests it's about being the earliest chronologically to achieve this feat, not about being item #1 in a numbered list.

 Sense 1 seems the most comprehensive and accurate: "preceding all others in time... or degree". Here it's preceding others in time (it was the earliest test to do this).

 Let me check the examples again:
 - Sense 1 example: "the first house on the right" (spatial), but also implies temporal precedence.
 - Sense 5: "was first in her class" (ranking).

 The sentence "This test was the first to predict..." is saying no test before this one could predict reliably. So it's temporally first.

 Therefore: 1.

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

Sentence: This test was the first to predict reliably whether an <t>individual</t> could expect to develop cancer.

Senses:
1. definition=a human being | examples=there was too much for one person to do
2. definition=a single organism

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which sense of "individual" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "This test was the first to predict reliably whether an <t>individual</t> could expect to develop cancer."

The two senses provided are:
1. definition=a human being | examples=there was too much for one person to do
2. definition=a single organism

Let me analyze the sentence. The sentence is talking about predicting whether someone could develop cancer. Cancer is a disease that affects human beings (and other animals, but in the context of medical tests predicting cancer, it's almost always referring to human beings).

Sense 1 defines "individual" as "a human being" with an example about a person doing work.
Sense 2 defines "individual" as "a single organism" which is more biological and general.

In the context of medical testing for cancer prediction, "individual" refers to a human being. While technically humans are organisms, the specific context of cancer prediction tests and the phrase "could expect to develop" suggests a human context. Also, sense 1 is the more common usage when referring to people in general contexts.

Looking at the example for sense 1: "there was too much for one person to do" - this clearly refers to a human.
Sense 2 is "a single organism" which could be any living thing.

In the sentence about predicting cancer, it's referring to a human individual. Therefore, sense 1 is the correct answer.

Wait, let me double-check. Could it be sense 2? If we're talking about biology or ecology, "individual" might refer to any organism. But the context here is a "test" that predicts whether someone "could expect" to develop cancer. The word "expect" suggests human anticipation or medical prognosis for a person. Also, cancer tests are typically for humans (or sometimes animals in veterinary contexts, but the default assumption is human medical context).

Therefore, the answer should be 1.

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

Sentence: This test was the first to predict reliably whether an individual could <t>expect</t> to develop cancer.

Senses:
1. definition=regard something as probable or likely | examples=The meteorologists are expecting rain for tomorrow
2. definition=consider obligatory; request and expect | examples=We require our secretary to be on time
3. definition=look forward to the probable occurrence of | examples=We were expecting a visit from our relatives
4. definition=consider reasonable or due | examples=I'm expecting a full explanation as to why these files were destroyed
5. definition=look forward to the birth of a child | examples=She is expecting in March
6. definition=be pregnant with | examples=She is bearing his child

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "expect" is used in the given sentence.

 Sentence: "This test was the first to predict reliably whether an individual could <t>expect</t> to develop cancer."

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 - The test predicts whether an individual could expect to develop cancer
 - This means the individual would regard developing cancer as probable or likely
 - It's about anticipating or predicting a future event (developing cancer)

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. "regard something as probable or likely" - This fits. The individual would regard developing cancer as probable or likely based on the test.

 2. "consider obligatory; request and expect" - This doesn't fit. There's no sense of obligation or request here.

 3. "look forward to the probable occurrence of" - This usually implies anticipation of something desired or neutral, but "look forward to" often has a positive connotation. Developing cancer is not something one looks forward to. However, the definition says "probable occurrence" which could fit, but the "look forward to" part makes it less likely for a negative event like cancer.

 4. "consider reasonable or due" - This doesn't fit well. It's not about considering something reasonable or due, but about anticipating a probability.

 5. "look forward to the birth of a child" - This is specifically about pregnancy/childbirth. Doesn't fit.

 6. "be pregnant with" - This is about pregnancy. Doesn't fit.

 Between sense 1 and sense 3:
 - Sense 1: "regard something as probable or likely" - This is about assessing probability.
 - Sense 3: "look forward to the probable occurrence of" - This is about anticipating something, often with expectation of it happening.

 In the context of predicting cancer, the test predicts whether someone could expect (anticipate/foresee) that they will develop cancer. This is about regarding it as probable.

 Actually, looking more carefully:
 "whether an individual could expect to develop cancer" - this means whether the individual could anticipate or foresee that they will develop cancer.

 Sense 1: "regard something as probable or likely" - The individual would regard developing cancer as probable.
 Sense 3: "look forward to the probable occurrence of" - While "look forward to" can be neutral, it often implies waiting for something. But in the context of cancer, one wouldn't "look forward" to it.

 However, looking at the examples:
 Sense 1 example: "The meteorologists are expecting rain for tomorrow" - this is about predicting/anticipating a future event.
 Sense 3 example: "We were expecting a visit from our relatives" - this is about anticipating a visit.

 Actually, both could potentially fit, but sense 1 is more about probability and prediction, while sense 3 is more about anticipation.

 The key is "predict reliably whether an individual could expect" - the test predicts what the individual can anticipate about their future health.

 But wait, "expect to develop cancer" - is this about:
 a) regarding it as probable that one will develop cancer (sense 1)
 b) anticipating that one will develop cancer (sense 3)

 In medical contexts, when we say someone can "expect" to develop a disease, we mean they are likely to develop it or it is probable that they will develop it.

 Sense 1: "regard something as probable or likely"
 Sense 3: "look forward to the probable occurrence of"

 The phrase "look forward to" in sense 3 is problematic for cancer, as one doesn't look forward to cancer. But dictionary definitions often use "look forward to" to mean "anticipate" in a neutral sense.

 However, looking at the specific wording:
 Sense 1 focuses on probability/likelihood.
 Sense 3 focuses on anticipation of occurrence.

 The sentence is about prediction: the test predicts whether someone could expect (anticipate/foresee) that they will develop cancer.

 But actually, looking at the example for sense 1: "The meteorologists are expecting rain for tomorrow" - this is a predictive sense.
 Looking at sense 3: "We were expecting a visit from our relatives" - this is also predictive/anticipatory.

 The difference is subtle. Let me think about the specific usage "expect to develop cancer".

 If I say "I expect to develop cancer", I mean I believe it is probable that I will develop cancer. This aligns with sense 1.

 Sense 3 with "look forward to" suggests a temporal orientation toward a future event, often with some emotional component (positive or negative), but the key is the anticipation.

 However, in the context of "predict reliably whether an individual could expect to develop cancer", the meaning is that the test predicts the probability of the individual developing cancer.

 Actually, looking at WordNet or similar lexical databases (which this seems to be based on):
 Sense 1 is usually the generic "anticipate, expect" - regard as likely.
 Sense 3 is often "expect, look, await, wait" - look forward to the probable occurrence of.

 But in the sentence "could expect to develop cancer", this is about the likelihood of an event happening to oneself.

 Let me reconsider sense 4: "consider reasonable or due" - "I'm expecting a full explanation" - this is about expecting something from someone, demanding it.

 The sentence is about self-expectation: expecting something to happen to oneself.

 Between sense 1 and 3:
 Sense 1 example: "The meteorologists are expecting rain" - external event prediction
 Sense 3 example: "We were expecting a visit" - external event prediction

 Both seem similar. But sense 1 is more about probability assessment, while sense 3 is about waiting/anticipating.

 In "expect to develop cancer", the person is the subject who will experience the event. So it's like "I expect [that I will] develop cancer".

 This is similar to "I expect rain" (sense 1) or "I expect a visit" (sense 3).

 But "develop cancer" is something that happens to the subject, not something external like rain or a visit.

 Actually, looking at the definitions again carefully:

 1. regard something as probable or likely
 2. consider obligatory; request and expect
 3. look forward to the probable occurrence of
 4. consider reasonable or due
 5. look forward to the birth of a child
 6. be pregnant with

 For "expect to develop cancer":
 - Is it regarding cancer as probable? (Sense 1)
 - Is it looking forward to the occurrence of cancer? (Sense 3)

 While "look forward to" usually implies a positive anticipation, in dictionary definitions it can be neutral. However, sense 1 is the most general sense of "expect" meaning "believe something will happen" or "regard as probable".

 Also, looking at the example for sense 1: "The meteorologists are expecting rain for tomorrow" - this is about predicting a future event.

 The sentence says "predict reliably whether an individual could expect to develop cancer" - this is parallel to predicting whether rain will come (meteorologists expecting rain).

 So sense 1 seems correct.

 But let me double-check sense 3. "look forward to the probable occurrence of" - if we interpret "look forward to" broadly as "anticipate", then it could fit. But the specific wording "look forward to" suggests a temporal orientation that might not fit cancer prediction as well as the probability sense.

 Also, sense 3 is often used for "we expect him to arrive at 5" - anticipating someone's arrival.

 But sense 1 is the most common, general sense of "expect" when talking about future events and probability.

 The answer should be 1.

 Wait, I should check if there's any other interpretation.

 Could it be sense 4? "consider reasonable or due" - Is the individual considering it reasonable to develop cancer? No, that doesn't make sense.

 Sense 2? No, no obligation.

 Sense 5 or 6? No, not about pregnancy.

 So it's between 1 and 3.

 In many lexical databases (like WordNet), sense 1 is:
 expect (v) = regard something as probable or likely; "I expect he'll win"; "The meteorologists are expecting rain for tomorrow"

 Sense 3 is:
 expect (v) = look forward to the probable occurrence of; "We were expecting a visit from our relatives"; "She is looking forward to the concert"

 The difference is subtle. Sense 1 is about belief/assessment of probability. Sense 3 is about anticipation/awaiting.

 In "could expect to develop cancer", the modal "could" suggests possibility of the expectation, and the context is prediction. This aligns with assessing probability.

 Also, "expect to develop" is a construction where the subject is the one who will undergo the action. This is similar to "expect to win", "expect to lose", "expect to succeed" - these are all about assessing one's own chances.

 This is sense 1.

 Therefore, the answer is 1.

 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "develop" is used in the given sentence.

Sentence: "This test was the first to predict reliably whether an individual could expect to <t>develop</t> cancer."

Let me analyze the context:
- The subject is "an individual" (a person)
- The object is "cancer" (a disease)
- The meaning is about a person getting/acquiring a disease over time

Looking at the senses:

1. make something new - No, this is about creating products, not getting a disease
2. work out - No, this is about developing theories/plans
3. gain through experience - This is close but the example is about acquiring an aversion, not a disease
4. come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes) - Examples: "He grew a beard". This could fit - coming to have a disease is a physical change
5. come into existence; take on form or shape - More about abstract things or movements originating
6. change the use of - Real estate development, not relevant
7. elaborate - Making something more detailed, not relevant
8. create by training - Not relevant
9. be gradually disclosed - About plots/stories unfolding
10. grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution... - Examples: "A flower developed on the branch". This is about natural growth/processes. Cancer developing fits here - it's a biological process where the disease grows/emerges.
11. become technologically advanced - Countries developing economically
12. cause to grow - Making grain grow, transitive
13. generate gradually - Creating customers
14. grow emotionally or mature - Personal development
15. make visible - Photography
16. superimpose - Geometry
17. move pieces - Chess
18. move into position - Chess
19. elaborate musically - Music
20. happen - News developing
21. expand in series - Math

Between 4 and 10:
- Sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - example "He grew a beard"
- Sense 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment" - example "A flower developed on the branch"

"Develop cancer" means to acquire/get cancer, for the disease to begin and grow in the body. This is a biological/medical process where the disease originates and progresses.

Sense 10 seems most appropriate because:
- It's about natural growth/processes unfolding
- Cancer is a biological process that develops (grows/evolves) in the body
- The example "A flower developed on the branch" shows natural biological development

Sense 4 is about undergoing a change in physical features (like growing a beard, getting taller, etc.). While getting cancer is a physical change, sense 10 captures the progressive, unfolding nature of the disease process better.

However, looking at typical dictionary definitions, "develop" in medical contexts (develop a disease) often corresponds to senses like "begin to have", "contract", or "acquire" - which might map to sense 4 or sense 10.

Actually, looking more carefully at sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - this could include developing a disease as the body undergoing a change.

But sense 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment" - this also fits as cancer grows/progresses.

Let me look for similar patterns in the examples:
- Sense 4 example: "He grew a beard" - this is about physical appearance/features
- Sense 10 example: "A flower developed on the branch" - this is about something coming into being through natural process

When we say someone "develops cancer", we mean the cancer begins to grow in their body - it unfolds/evolves as a biological process. So sense 10 seems better.

But wait, I should check if there's a sense about contracting/acquiring diseases...

Sense 3: "gain through experience" - example "I acquired a strong aversion" - this is about acquisition through experience

Actually, looking at standard WordNet or similar lexical databases (which this formatting resembles), "develop" when used with diseases typically falls under sense 10 or similar - the sense about growing, progressing, unfolding naturally.

Or it could be sense 20 "happen" - but that's usually for events/news.

Let me reconsider sense 4 vs 10:
- Develop a beard = grow a beard (sense 4)
- Develop cancer = get/catch cancer, the cancer begins to exist in the body

In many lexical resources, "develop" with illness is listed under the sense meaning "to begin to have", "contract", or "acquire" - which would be closest to sense 4 "come to have".

But sense 4 specifies "physical features and attributes" - cancer is a disease/condition, not exactly a feature or attribute, though it is physical.

Sense 10 is about natural growth and evolution - cancer is unwanted but it is a biological growth process.

Actually, looking at the exact wording of sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)"
And sense 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment"

I think 10 is more accurate for diseases. When we say a person develops cancer, we mean the cancer develops (grows) in them, or they enter the state of having cancer through this biological process.

Wait, I see sense 20: "happen" - example "Report the news as it develops". This is about events unfolding.

Actually, looking at this specific list (which appears to be from WordNet), checking WordNet 3.0 or similar:
- develop#12 (or similar number) is often "grow, progress, unfold..."
- develop#9 is "come to have"

But without knowing the exact mapping, I need to judge from the definitions provided.

Sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)"
- This seems to be about the subject gaining physical characteristics

Sense 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process..."
- This is about the process itself

When a person develops cancer, they are undergoing the process of the disease developing in them. Both could work, but medical "develop" (as in "develop symptoms", "develop a disease") is usually categorized under the sense of entering a state or condition, often biological growth.

Given the example for 10 is "A flower developed on the branch" - this is intransitive, about something growing naturally.
Given the example for 4 is "He grew a beard" - this is also about natural growth.

Actually, looking at the sentence structure: "an individual could expect to develop cancer"
This is transitive - the individual develops (acquires/gets) cancer.

Sense 10 can be intransitive: "The plant develops"
Sense 4: "He grew a beard" - he developed a beard?

Actually, "develop" in sense 4 with "beard" - "He developed a rash", "He developed a beard" - yes, this fits acquiring physical attributes.

Cancer is similar - it's a physical condition that appears/grows.

But sense 10 with the flower example is also biological growth.

The distinction might be:
- Sense 4: coming to have features/attributes (acquisition)
- Sense 10: growing/evolving as a process (development over time)

For cancer, both apply, but typically in lexical semantics, disease + develop maps to the "contract/acquire" sense which is closest to sense 4 (come to have).

However, looking carefully at sense 3: "gain through experience" - no, that's about learning/acquiring skills or preferences.

Let me reconsider sense 36... wait, the list goes up to 21.

Actually, looking at the list again, I think sense 4 or 10 are the main candidates.

But I recall that in WordNet, develop.v.12 is about biological growth (crops, flowers), and develop.v.8 or similar is about coming to have.

Let me think about which makes more sense pedagogically:
- If I develop cancer, did I "come to have a physical feature" (sense 4)? Cancer is not typically called a feature.
- Did I "grow/evolve through natural process" (sense 10)? Yes, the cancer grows in me.

Actually, looking at the example "He grew a beard" for sense 4 - "grew" is used, suggesting physical growth of body parts.
Looking at sense 10 "A flower developed" - natural biological process.

Cancer is a biological process, so 10 seems right.

But wait, I should check if there's a sense about diseases specifically or "contracting" illnesses. I don't see one explicitly.

Another thought: sense 20 "happen" - "Report the news as it develops" - could "develop cancer" mean cancer happens to someone? That's a stretch.

Sense 4 vs 10:
- Sense 4 examples: "He grew a beard" - about personal physical attributes
- Cancer is not an attribute but a pathology

However, in many thesauruses, "develop" meaning "contract (a disease)" is grouped with "acquire" or "get".

Sense 3 is "gain through experience" - not quite.
Sense 4 is "come to have" - this is literally the meaning of "get/contract" a disease.

Even though cancer isn't a "physical feature", sense 4 might be the intended answer because it's about the subject coming to have a physical condition.

But the definition says "physical features and attributes" specifically. Cancer is a disease, not a feature.

Sense 10 says "grow, progress, unfold..." - this describes the process of cancer developing.

I think I'm overthinking. Let me look for clues in the wording.

The sentence: "predict reliably whether an individual could expect to develop cancer"

This is about predicting if someone will get cancer in the future.

In WordNet 3.1:
- develop (v) sense 10: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment" - e.g., "A flower developed on the branch"
- develop (v) sense 9: "come into existence; take on form or shape" - "A new religious movement originated..."
- develop (v) sense 14: "become technologically advanced"
- develop (v) sense related to "acquire": "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - this is sense 4 in the list provided.

Actually, checking standard WordNet:
develop.v.04: undergo a change or development; "The water turned into ice"; "Her former friend became her worst enemy"; "He turned traitor"
develop.v.05: come into existence; take on form or shape; "A new religious movement originated in that country"...
develop.v.12: grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment; "Spring developed...

Wait, the numbers in the prompt don't match WordNet exactly.

Given the specific list provided:
4. come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes) | examples=He grew a beard
10. grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution... | examples=A flower developed on the branch

Between these two, 10 seems slightly better because cancer is a biological growth (like a flower), whereas a beard is a normal physical attribute.

However, patients "develop" cancer in the sense of acquiring the disease.

Actually, looking at sense 3: "gain through experience" - example "I acquired a strong aversion". "Acquire" is the key word. We acquire cancer.

Sense 4: "come to have" - also means acquire.

But the examples distinguish them: sense 3 is about experience/learning (aversion), sense 4 is about physical features (beard).

Cancer is physical, so sense 4 might be intended.

But let me check if "develop" with diseases is sense 10 in any standard classification. In WordNet, "develop" for diseases is often sense 2 or 12 depending on version.

Upon second thought, looking at the example "He grew a beard" for sense 4, and knowing that "develop a disease" is similar to "grow a tumor" or similar, and sense 10 is about natural growth processes...

Actually, the crucial difference might be transitive vs intransitive.
- "An individual could expect to develop cancer" - here "develop" is transitive (taking cancer as object).
- Sense 4 definition doesn't specify transitivity, but "He grew a beard" suggests transitive (grew what? a beard).
- Sense 10 definition "grow, progress, unfold..." suggests intransitive (the subject grows).

In the sentence, "cancer" is the object being developed (by the individual? No - the individual develops cancer, meaning cancer comes to exist in the individual).

Wait, "develop" can be used transitively or intransitively with diseases:
- Intransitive: "The cancer developed slowly" (the cancer grew)
- Transitive: "He developed cancer" (he acquired/got cancer)

In the sentence: "an individual could expect to develop cancer" - this is transitive usage (individual = subject, cancer = object).

So which senses allow transitive objects?
- Sense 1: make something new (transitive)
- Sense 2: work out (transitive)
- Sense 4: come to have... (transitive - come to have what?)
- Sense 6: change the use of... (transitive)
- Sense 7: elaborate... (transitive)
- Sense 8: create... (transitive)
- Sense 12: cause to grow... (transitive)
- Sense 13: generate... (transitive)
- Sense 15: make visible... (transitive)

Sense 10: "grow, progress..." - this looks intransitive (the flower developed - not the gardener developed the flower, though that could be sense 12).

So for transitive "develop cancer", sense 10 (intransitive growth) is probably not the right category.

Sense 4: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - this allows objects like "beard", "muscles", "wrinkles", and likely "cancer" (as a physical change/condition).

Sense 3: "gain through experience" - this might work for "gain cancer through exposure" but the example suggests psychological things (aversion).

Therefore, despite the "physical features" wording, sense 4 is likely the intended answer because it's about the subject coming to have a physical condition.

But I need to be careful. Let me reconsider sense 20 "happen". No.

What about sense 9? "be gradually disclosed or unfolded" - no.

Let me look for "become sick" or similar. Not listed explicitly.

Actually, looking at WordNet online for "develop":
One sense is: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth..." - verb 12 in WordNet 3.0
Another is: "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes)" - verb 19?

Wait, I found a similar list online. This looks like it might be from the Oxford dictionary or a specific semantic dataset.

Given the constraint that I must return a number, and the most likely candidates are 4 or 10, and considering that "develop cancer" is about the disease arising in the body (like a flower on a branch), and sense 10 specifically mentions natural growth in a conducive environment (which fits cancer developing due to genetic mutations/environmental factors), and the flower example is biological like cancer...

But earlier I thought sense 10 is intransitive. Let me check: can sense 10 be transitive? "He developed a flower on his branch"? No, that doesn't work. "He developed a cancer"? Possible but less common than "The cancer developed" or "He developed cancer".

Actually, "He developed cancer" is transitive - the verb takes a direct object.

Sense 10's definition: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve..." - these are intransitive verbs (you don't "grow something" in the sense of undergoing growth yourself - wait, you can "grow a beard" - transitive).

But "unfold" is typically intransitive.

The pattern for sense 10 suggests intransitive: "A flower developed..."

So for transitive "develop cancer", we need a sense that allows acquisition/creation.

Sense 4: "come to have" - can take object (come to have cancer)
Sense 12: "cause to grow" - "The climate develops the grain"
Sense 13: "generate gradually" - transitive

Between 4, 12, and 13:
- Sense 12: external cause (climate causes grain to grow)
- Sense 13: generate customers - creating/generating something new
- Sense 4: undergoing change oneself - coming to have a feature

When a person develops cancer, they are not causing it (usually), they are not generating it purposefully, they are coming to have it as a condition.

So sense 4.

But I'm not fully satisfied. Let me see if there's another way.

Sense 10 could be used transitively in some frameworks, or "cancer" could be the subject of an intransitive verb in a relative clause... but no, the structure is "individual ... to develop cancer", so individual develops cancer.

Another possibility: sense 20 "happen" - "Report the news as it develops". Here "develop" is intransitive (the news develops). But "develop cancer" is transitive.

Unless... "develop" here means "to contract" and is specifically sense 4.

I think I should go with **4** or **10**, but I'm leaning toward **10** because cancer is a biological process like a flower growing, while sense 4 is about attributes like beards.

But then there's the transitivity issue.

Wait, looking at sense 10 again: "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment"

In biological contexts, "develop" for diseases is exactly this sense. The disease develops (grows) in the person. Even if grammatically transitive ("He developed cancer"), semantically it's the cancer undergoing the development.

In contrast, sense 4 is about the person undergoing change of features.

Actually, both work, but I think **10** is the standard semantic classification for "develop" with diseases in contexts like WordNet.

However, looking at the specific examples:
- 4: "He grew a beard" - personal physical change
- 10: "A flower developed on the branch" - biological growth

Cancer is a biological growth, not a personal attribute like a beard. So 10.

But let me check if sense 4 covers diseases in some dictionaries. Collins: "When something such as a problem or illness develops, it starts to exist or it gets worse." That's intransitive.
Merriam-Webster: "to acquire gradually : contract [develop a cough]"

The definition "contract" or "acquire" maps to sense 4 "come to have".

Given the ambiguity, and that sense 10's example is biological (flower), and cancer is biological, I'll go with 10.

But I recall that in some specific lexical sample datasets (like the SEMCOR or similar), "develop" with cancer is sense 10.

Final check: Is there any other sense that fits better?
- Sense 20: happen - no
- Sense 5: come into existence - "A new religious movement originated" - could work for cancer originating, but 10 is more specific to biological processes
- Sense 25... no, only up to 21.

I'll provide **4** or **10**. I need to decide.

Actually, looking at the sentence structure once more: "whether an individual could expect to develop cancer"

If I substitute the definitions:
- 4: whether an individual could expect to come to have or undergo a change of physical features and attributes [called] cancer - awkward but works
- 10: whether an individual could expect to grow, progress, unfold... cancer - doesn't fit grammatically (you don't grow cancer transitively in this sense, the cancer grows)

Therefore, sense 4 is the only one that makes grammatical sense as transitive.

So the answer is **4**.

Wait, but sense 12 is "cause to grow": "whether an individual could expect to cause cancer to grow" - no, the individual doesn't cause it usually, and that's not the meaning.

Sense 13 "generate gradually" - "generate cancer gradually" - possible but not the primary meaning.

Sense 4 is best.

But I'm going to reconsider sense 10 one last time. If the definition is "grow..." and the example is intransitive, but the sentence is transitive, then 10 is wrong.

So 4 is the answer.

Actually, looking at similar tasks online (this looks like a Word Sense Disambiguation task), "develop" in the context of diseases is often sense ... let me think.

In WordNet 3.0:
develop#v#12: grow, progress, unfold... (intransitive, biological)
develop#v#19: undergo a change or development: "The water turned into ice" (intransitive)
develop#v#18: come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes) - "The developed a beard"

"Undergo a change" - yes, the individual undergoes the change of developing cancer.

But also develop#v#7: move into a strategically more advantageous position - chess
develop#v#8: superimpose...
develop#v#9: generate gradually...
develop#v#10: work out...
develop#v#11: make visible...
develop#v#13: elaborate...
develop#v#14: happen...

Actually, checking a standard WordNet browser, develop.v.18 is "come to have or undergo a change of (physical features and attributes); "He grew a beard"".

And develop.v.12 is "grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth..."

For "develop cancer", it is most commonly annotated as develop.v.12 (the biological growth sense), even though it's used transitively. This is because the cancer is the entity that is literally developing (growing), though we speak of the patient developing it.

But strictly by the "transitive requires sense 4" logic, 4 would be correct.

However, given this is likely from WordNet or similar, and the numbering:
WordNet 3.0/3.1 has about 20 senses for develop.

The list provided has 21 senses, suggesting it's a comprehensive list like WordNet.

In WN develop.v.04 is something else, develop.v.04 might be "by training and teaching" (no, that's different).

Actually, looking at the provided list:
8 is "create by training and teaching" - this matches WN develop.v.8 (cause to grow and develop, as of children or animals, or train)

So the numbering is likely:
1: make (new product)
2: work out (theory)
3: gain through experience
4: come to have (physical features)
5: come into existence
6: change use (land)
7: elaborate (theories)
8: create by training (students)
9: be gradually disclosed (plot)
10: grow natural (flower)
11: technologically advanced (countries)
12: cause to grow (grain)
13: generate gradually (customers)
14: grow emotionally (child)
15: make visible (film)
20: happen
21: expand series

That matches WN develop.v.* where * is roughly the number.

So for "develop cancer", it would be develop.v.17 or similar for "become sick", but 4 or 10.

Given that in WN, "develop symptoms" or "develop cancer" falls under the sense similar to grow/evolve (biological), which is sense 10 "grow, progress...".

I'm going with **10**.

But to be safe, let me consider if it could be **20** (happen). "Report the news as it develops" - "whether cancer develops in the individual". But the sentence is "an individual ... to develop cancer", not "cancer ... to develop". So 20 is wrong.

Between 4 and 10, I think the answer is **4** if we consider it transitive acquisition, or **10** if we consider the biological process.

Given the example "He grew a beard" for 4 and "A flower developed" for 10, and that cancer is an internal biological process like a flower growing (not an external feature like a beard), I choose **10**.

Final answer: 4

No wait, I changed my mind. Standard WSD for "develop cancer" is typically the "contract/acquire" sense, which is 4.

I'll go with 4.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "cancer" is used in the given sentence.

Sentence: "This test was the first to predict reliably whether an individual could expect to develop <t>cancer</t>."

The word "cancer" here refers to the disease, which is a malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division.

Let's look at the senses:
1. definition=any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division; it may spread to other parts of the body through the lymphatic system or the blood stream
2. definition=(astrology) a person who is born while the sun is in Cancer
3. definition=a small zodiacal constellation in the northern hemisphere; between Leo and Gemini
4. definition=the fourth sign of the zodiac; the sun is in this sign from about June 21 to July 22
5. definition=type genus of the family Cancridae

Sense 1 is clearly the medical condition. The sentence talks about a test predicting whether an individual could develop cancer, which refers to the disease.

So the answer is 1.

I need to return only the number.

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

Sentence: <t>Equally</t> important, the initial discovery of the gene that controls retinal cell growth, made by a Boston doctor named Thaddeus Dryja, has opened a field of cancer study, which in recent months has exploded.

Senses:
1. definition=to the same degree (often followed by `as') | examples=they were equally beautiful
2. definition=in equal amounts or shares; in a balanced or impartial way | examples=a class evenly divided between girls and boys

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "equally" is used in the given sentence.

 Sentence: "Equally important, the initial discovery of the gene that controls retinal cell growth, made by a Boston doctor named Thaddeus Dryja, has opened a field of cancer study, which in recent months has exploded."

 The word "equally" here is modifying "important". It's saying that something is equally important (presumably to something mentioned previously or implied).

 Let me look at the two senses provided:

 1. "to the same degree (often followed by `as')" - examples: "they were equally beautiful"
    This suggests comparison to the same degree as something else. The structure is often "equally + adjective" where the comparison is implied or explicit with "as".

 2. "in equal amounts or shares; in a balanced or impartial way" - examples: "a class evenly divided between girls and boys"
    This suggests distribution or division into equal parts.

 In the sentence "Equally important...", we are saying that the discovery is important to the same degree as something else (likely something mentioned earlier in the text). This is using "equally" to mean "to the same degree."

 The phrase "equally important" is a common collocation meaning "of the same importance" or "to the same degree of importance."

 Sense 1 fits because:
 - It means "to the same degree"
 - It's modifying an adjective (important)
 - It's making a comparison of degree

 Sense 2 doesn't fit because:
 - We're not talking about dividing something into equal amounts or shares
 - We're not talking about distribution or impartial division

 Therefore, the answer should be 1.
