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

 Sentence: "Next to Chez Panisse a homeless couple, bundled into a blue sleeping bag, sat up, said, "Good morning "and then the woman smiled, said, "Isn't it great just to be <t>alive</t>? ""

 The word "alive" is tagged with <t></t> in the sentence.

 Let me analyze the context:
 The woman is saying "Isn't it great just to be alive?" - this is an expression of gratitude or appreciation for being living, for having life, for existing.

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. definition=possessing life | examples=the happiest person alive
 - This means having life, not dead. "To be alive" in the sense of existing as a living being.

 2. definition=(often followed by `with') full of life and spirit | examples=she was wonderfully alive for her age
 - This suggests vitality, energy, often used with "with" (alive with excitement)

 3. definition=having life or vigor or spirit | examples=an animated and expressive face
 - Similar to 2, suggesting animation, vigor

 4. definition=(followed by `to' or `of') aware of | examples=is alive to the moods of others
 - This requires "to" or "of" after alive

 5. definition=in operation | examples=keep hope alive
 - Metaphorical sense, like keeping something active or ongoing

 6. definition=mentally perceptive and responsive | examples=an alert mind
 - Alert, keen

 7. definition=capable of erupting | examples=a live volcano
 - Only for geological features like volcanoes

 In the sentence "Isn't it great just to be alive?", the meaning is clearly about possessing life, being living (as opposed to dead), existing as a living being. This matches sense 1: "possessing life".

 The phrase "just to be alive" means simply to be living, to have life. This is the most basic meaning of alive - not dead.

 Sense 1 examples include "the happiest person alive" which refers to being living/possessing life.

 So the answer should be 1.

 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "agree" is used in the sentence "I agreed."

 Let me analyze the sentence: "I agreed."

 This is a simple intransitive use of the verb "agree" by itself, without any prepositional phrases or objects that would specify what kind of agreement is meant.

 Looking at the senses:
 1. "be in accord; be in agreement" - This is a general sense of being in agreement. Example: "We agreed on the terms" - but this usually implies agreement with someone or about something.
 2. "consent or assent to a condition, or agree to do something" - This would typically take "to" + something, like "agreed to the terms" or "agreed to go."
 3. "be compatible, similar or consistent" - This is about things matching, not typically used for people agreeing in the sense of giving consent.
 4. "go together" - This is about colors, aesthetics, etc.
 5. "show grammatical agreement" - This is linguistic/grammatical agreement.
 6. "be agreeable or suitable" - This takes "with" usually, like "doesn't agree with me."
 7. "achieve harmony of opinion, feeling, or purpose" - This is about people coming to a mutual understanding or consensus.

 Now, looking at "I agreed" in isolation:
 - It could mean "I gave my consent/assent" (sense 2 without the object specified?)
 - It could mean "I am in agreement" (sense 1)
 - It could mean "I achieved harmony of opinion" (sense 7)

 But sense 2 typically requires an object or "to" phrase: "agreed to do something" or "agreed to a condition." Without that, it's incomplete for sense 2.

 Sense 1: "be in accord; be in agreement" - This can be used intransitively. "We agreed" means we are in a state of agreement.

 Sense 7: "achieve harmony of opinion, feeling, or purpose" - This also works with "I agreed" meaning I came to an agreement with others.

 However, looking at the examples:
 - Sense 1 example: "We agreed on the terms of the settlement" - this shows agreement about something specific.
 - Sense 7 example: "No two of my colleagues would agree on whom to elect chairman" - this shows the process of coming to agreement.

 But "I agreed" by itself is most commonly interpreted as giving consent or assent. However, looking carefully at the definitions:

 Sense 2: "consent or assent to a condition, or agree to do something"
 - The key here is that this sense implies agreeing TO something specific. The example is "She agreed to all my conditions."

 If the sentence is just "I agreed" without any context of what was agreed to, it could be elliptical (implying "I agreed [to it/to do it]").

 But let's look at sense 1 again: "be in accord; be in agreement"
 - This is a state of being in agreement.
 - Example: "We agreed on the terms"

 Actually, looking at WordNet or similar lexical databases (which these definitions seem to come from), sense 1 is often the general "be in agreement" sense, while sense 2 is specifically about consenting to do something or accepting a condition.

 In "I agreed", if it's standing alone, it most likely means "I gave my consent" or "I said yes" - which would be sense 2, but elliptically.

 However, looking at the exact wording of sense 1: "be in accord; be in agreement" - this can be used absolutely. "Yes, I agreed." (I was in agreement).

 But sense 2 specifically mentions "consent or assent to a condition" - and "I agreed" often means "I consented."

 Wait, I need to be careful. In many lexical sense inventories:
 - Sense 1 is often the reciprocal "agree with each other"
 - Sense 2 is "agree to do something" (consent)
 - Sense 7 is "agree on something" (come to a consensus)

 But looking at the provided definitions:
 1. "be in accord; be in agreement" - general
 2. "consent or assent to a condition, or agree to do something" - specific to consenting
 7. "achieve harmony of opinion, feeling, or purpose" - specific to reaching consensus

 "I agreed" without context is ambiguous, but in many standard tests of this type, "I agreed" is taken as the consent sense (sense 2), assuming an elliptical object like "I agreed [to it]."

 However, looking at the example for sense 1: "We agreed on the terms of the settlement" - this requires a complement (on the terms).

 Looking at sense 2 example: "She agreed to all my conditions" - requires "to" phrase.

 Looking at sense 7 example: "No two of my colleagues would agree on whom to elect chairman" - requires "on" phrase.

 So which sense allows absolute intransitive use?

 Actually, "agree" can be used absolutely in the sense of giving consent. "Did you agree?" "Yes, I agreed." This is sense 2 (consent).

 But it can also be used as "We agreed" meaning we reached a mutual understanding (sense 7 or 1).

 Given the isolated sentence "I agreed", the most likely intended answer is sense 2, interpreting it as "I gave consent" or "I assented."

 However, I should reconsider. In WordNet (which these definitions resemble):
 - agree#1: be in accord; be in agreement ("We agreed on the terms")
 - agree#2: consent or assent to a condition, or agree to do something ("She agreed to all my conditions")
 - agree#3: be compatible, similar or consistent
 - agree#4: go together
 - agree#5: show grammatical agreement
 - agree#6: be agreeable or suitable
 - agree#7: achieve harmony of opinion, feeling, or purpose

 In WordNet, sense 2 is specifically about consenting to proposals/conditions. The example "She agreed to all my conditions" shows the structure.

 If the sentence is just "I agreed", it might be elliptical for "I agreed to [the proposal]", making it sense 2.

 But could it be sense 1? "I was in agreement"? That's less common as a simple statement without context. Usually, you'd say "I agree" (present) to indicate current state of accord, or "I agreed" (past) to indicate you gave your consent to something.

 Actually, "I agreed" past tense strongly suggests the act of agreeing (giving consent) rather than the state of being in agreement. The state would usually be expressed as "I was in agreement" or "I agreed with him" (but that's different).

 Wait, "I agreed with him" would be sense 1 or 7.

 But "I agreed" alone... in many contexts, this means "I said yes" or "I gave my permission."

 Let me check if there's a pattern in how these questions work. Usually, they want the specific sense that fits the syntax.

 If the sentence is just "I agreed" with no object, no prepositional phrase, it's most likely sense 2 (consent) used absolutely, or possibly sense 1.

 But looking carefully at sense 1 definition: "be in accord; be in agreement" - this is a stative meaning. "We agreed" could mean "We were in agreement."

 Sense 2: "consent or assent..." - this is an action. "I agreed" = I performed the act of consenting.

 In English, "I agreed" (past tense) most commonly reports the act of giving agreement/consent to a specific proposal, even if the proposal isn't mentioned in that exact sentence (it's contextually understood).

 Therefore, sense 2 seems the most appropriate.

 However, I want to double-check sense 7: "achieve harmony of opinion..." - this is about multiple parties coming together. "I agreed" singular subject doesn't fit well with "achieve harmony" which implies mutual action.

 So it's between 1 and 2.

 Sense 1 example: "We agreed on the terms" - plural subject, specific topic.
 Sense 2 example: "She agreed to all my conditions" - singular subject, specific conditions.

 "I agreed" matches the subject type of sense 2 better (singular person consenting).

 Also, in many lexical semantic datasets, the absolute use of "agree" (without preposition) defaults to the consent sense when the subject is a person acting alone.

 Therefore, I believe the answer is 2.

 Wait, I should reconsider if it could be sense 1 with an implied "with you" or similar. But the question asks which sense is used, and if it's absolute, sense 2 is the only one that really works as an absolute verb meaning "give consent."

 Actually, looking at dictionary definitions:
 - Agree (intransitive): to give consent; assent (often followed by to)
 - Agree (intransitive): to come to an agreement (often followed by on or upon)
 - Agree (intransitive): to be of one mind; harmonize (often followed by with)

 So "I agreed" without any following preposition is most naturally interpreted as "I gave consent" (sense 2).

 I'll go with 2.

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

Sentence: U.N. <t>group</t> drafts plan to reduce emissions

Senses:
1. definition=any number of entities (members) considered as a unit
2. definition=(chemistry) two or more atoms bound together as a single unit and forming part of a molecule
3. definition=a set that is closed, associative, has an identity element and every element has an inverse

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of the word "group" is used in the sentence: "U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions".

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 - "U.N." stands for United Nations
 - "group" here refers to some kind of committee, panel, or team within the U.N.
 - The context is about drafting a plan to reduce emissions (likely referring to environmental/climate change efforts)

 Now let's look at the senses:
 1. "any number of entities (members) considered as a unit" - This is a general definition of a group of people or things forming a unit.
 2. "(chemistry) two or more atoms bound together as a single unit and forming part of a molecule" - This is the chemical definition (functional group, etc.), not relevant here.
 3. "a set that is closed, associative, has an identity element and every element has an inverse" - This is the mathematical definition of a group (algebraic structure).

 In the sentence "U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions", the word "group" clearly refers to a collection of people (entities) working together as a unit within the U.N. organization. This matches sense 1.

 Sense 2 is chemistry-specific.
 Sense 3 is mathematics-specific.

 Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "plan" is used in the sentence: "U.N. group drafts <t>plan</t> to reduce emissions"

The options are:
1. definition=a series of steps to be carried out or goals to be accomplished | examples=they drew up a six-step plan
2. definition=an arrangement scheme | examples=the awkward design of the keyboard made operation difficult
3. definition=scale drawing of a structure | examples=the plans for City Hall were on file

Let me analyze the sentence: "U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions"

In this context, the U.N. group is creating a plan (drafting it) to reduce emissions. This refers to a series of steps or goals to be accomplished - a strategy or proposal for how to achieve the goal of reducing emissions.

Sense 1: "a series of steps to be carried out or goals to be accomplished" - This fits perfectly. The U.N. group is creating a series of steps to reduce emissions.

Sense 2: "an arrangement scheme" - This seems to refer more to a design or layout (like the example mentions "design of the keyboard"). This doesn't fit as well.

Sense 3: "scale drawing of a structure" - This is clearly about architectural blueprints or technical drawings. This doesn't fit the context of reducing emissions.

Therefore, the correct answer is sense 1.

The example given for sense 1 is "they drew up a six-step plan" which is very similar to "drafts plan to reduce emissions" - both involve creating a strategic plan of action.

So the answer is: 1

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

Sentence: U.N. group drafts plan to reduce <t>emissions</t>

Senses:
1. definition=the act of emitting; causing to flow forth
2. definition=a substance that is emitted or released
3. definition=the release of electrons from parent atoms
4. definition=any of several bodily processes by which substances go out of the body | examples=the discharge of pus
5. definition=the occurrence of a flow of water (as from a pipe)

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "emission" is used in the sentence: "U.N. group drafts plan to reduce <t>emissions</t>"

Let me look at the sentence context. It's about a U.N. group drafting a plan to reduce emissions. This typically refers to reducing the release of substances like greenhouse gases, pollutants, etc. into the atmosphere.

Now let's look at the senses:
1. the act of emitting; causing to flow forth - This is the act/process itself.
2. a substance that is emitted or released - This refers to the actual substance.
3. the release of electrons from parent atoms - This is physics-specific.
4. any of several bodily processes by which substances go out of the body - This is biological/medical.
5. the occurrence of a flow of water (as from a pipe) - This is about water flow.

In the sentence "U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions", the word "emissions" is being used as a countable noun referring to the substances being released (like greenhouse gas emissions). When we talk about reducing emissions in the context of U.N. and environmental plans, we mean reducing the amount of substances (gases, pollutants) that are released.

Wait, let me reconsider. "Emissions" in environmental contexts can sometimes refer to the act (sense 1) or the substances (sense 2). Let me think carefully.

If I say "reduce emissions", am I reducing the act of emitting or the substances emitted? Usually, in environmental policy, "emissions" refers to the substances discharged - e.g., carbon emissions, greenhouse gas emissions. These are substances.

But let me check: "emission" can be:
- Sense 1: the act or process of emitting (uncountable or singular)
- Sense 2: something that is emitted (countable, often plural)

In "reduce emissions", the plural form and the context of U.N. plans (like Kyoto Protocol, Paris Agreement) strongly suggests greenhouse gases or pollutants - i.e., substances that are emitted. You reduce the amount of these substances.

Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions:
- Emission (countable): an amount of gas, heat, light, etc. that is sent out into the air, or a substance that is sent out into the air
- Emission (uncountable): the act of sending out gas, heat, light, etc.

In the phrase "reduce emissions", it's typically referring to the substances themselves (greenhouse gases, etc.). The U.N. drafts plans to reduce the amount of pollutants/gases released.

So sense 2: "a substance that is emitted or released" seems correct.

Wait, but could it be sense 1? "The act of emitting" - reducing the act of emitting? In some contexts, "emission" as a mass noun refers to the act. But "emissions" plural strongly points to countable instances of substances being released.

Let me verify with the definitions again:
1. the act of emitting; causing to flow forth
2. a substance that is emitted or released
3. the release of electrons from parent atoms
4. bodily processes
5. flow of water

Yes, in environmental contexts, "emissions" (plural) almost always refers to substances like exhaust gases, pollutants, etc. So sense 2 is the best fit.

Actually, I should double-check. In WordNet or similar lexical databases, how are these senses structured? The definitions look like they might be from WordNet.

WordNet 3.1 for "emission":
1. emission, emanation - the act of emitting; causing to flow forth
2. discharge, emission - a substance that is emitted or released
3. emission - the release of electrons from parent atoms
4. discharge, emission, expelling - any of several bodily processes by which substances go out of the body
5. emission - the occurrence of a flow of water (as from a pipe)

In the sentence "U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions", this is about reducing pollutants/greenhouse gases. So it's sense 2.

But wait - could "emissions" in this context be interpreted as the act? Let me think. If it were the act, it would be more like "the emission of greenhouse gases" (singular/mass). But "emissions" as a standalone noun in environmental policy refers to the pollutants themselves. For example, "carbon emissions" means carbon that is emitted - the substance.

Therefore, the answer is 2.

The user wants me to identify which sense of the word "climate" is used in the given sentence. The word is marked with <t></t> tags in the sentence.

Let me analyze the sentence:
"The U.N.-sponsored <t>climate</t> conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

The context is about:
- A U.N.-sponsored conference
- Greenhouse-gas reductions
- Industrialized nations shouldering burden
- Environmental policy context

Now let's look at the two senses:
1. "the weather in some location averaged over some long period of time" - This is the meteorological/climatological definition referring to weather patterns.
2. "the prevailing psychological state" - This refers to the atmosphere or mood of opinion, attitudes, etc.

In the sentence, "climate conference" refers to a conference about climate change/global warming - the environmental phenomenon related to weather patterns and atmospheric conditions over time. This matches sense 1.

Sense 2 would be used in contexts like "the political climate" or "the climate of opinion" referring to prevailing attitudes or moods.

The mention of "greenhouse-gas reductions" confirms this is about environmental climate (sense 1), not psychological climate (sense 2).

Therefore, the answer is 1.

Senses:

The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "conference" is used in the given sentence. The target word is marked with <t></t> tags: "conference".

Sentence: "The U.N.-sponsored climate <t>conference</t> -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

Senses:
1. definition=a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda)
2. definition=an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members
3. definition=a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic

Let me analyze the context. The sentence talks about a "U.N.-sponsored climate conference". This is clearly referring to a formal meeting where representatives gather to discuss climate issues. It's a prearranged meeting for consultation and exchange of information on a formal agenda (greenhouse-gas reductions).

Sense 1 fits perfectly: "a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda)". Climate conferences like the UNFCCC COP meetings are exactly this.

Sense 2 is about sports teams, which is clearly irrelevant here.

Sense 3 is "a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic". While a conference involves discussion, sense 3 seems to emphasize the discussion itself rather than the meeting/event. But wait, looking closely at sense 3: "a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic". This could potentially fit, but typically in WordNet or similar lexicographic resources, sense 1 is the primary sense for a formal meeting (like a convention, summit, etc.), while sense 3 might be more like a seminar or academic conference focusing on the discussion aspect.

However, looking at the sentence, it mentions "U.N.-sponsored climate conference" which is an event that takes place over days, with posturing, recriminations, release of documents, etc. It's definitely referring to the meeting/event itself.

Sense 1 mentions "a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda)". This matches exactly.

Sense 3: "a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic". This is more abstract, focusing on the act of discussing rather than the event. But in the sentence, they are talking about the event gaining focus, not just a discussion.

Also, looking at standard WordNet senses for "conference":
- Sense 1: a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda)
- Sense 2: an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members (league, conference)
- Sense 3: a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic (conference, group discussion)

Wait, actually in WordNet 3.0:
- conference, group discussion (a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic)
- conference, league (an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members)
- conference (a prearranged meeting for consultation or exchange of information or discussion (especially one with a formal agenda))

But the numbering in the prompt is:
1. prearranged meeting...
2. association of sports teams...
3. discussion among participants...

So sense 1 is the meeting/event sense. The UN climate conference is definitely sense 1.

Let me double-check. The sentence says "The U.N.-sponsored climate conference... gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document...". This is describing a formal meeting/event. So the answer is 1.

Wait, I should make sure about sense 3. Could "conference" here mean the discussion itself? "The discussion gained renewed focus Friday..." But the phrase "U.N.-sponsored climate" strongly modifies it as an event. Also, the dash describes it as having "unruly posturing and mutual recriminations" which are things that happen at meetings/events. And "release of a document" is something that happens at a formal meeting.

Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

The user wants only the number returned. So I should output just "1".

2. definition=maximum clarity or distinctness of an image rendered by an optical system | examples=in focus
3. definition=maximum clarity or distinctness of an idea | examples=the controversy brought clearly into focus an important difference of opinion

 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "focus" is used in the given sentence. Let me analyze the sentence and the definitions.

Sentence: "The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed <t>focus</t> Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

The word "focus" here is used in the context of the conference gaining renewed focus. Let me look at the definitions:

1. definition=the concentration of attention or energy on something | examples=the focus of activity shifted to molecular biology
2. definition=maximum clarity or distinctness of an image rendered by an optical system | examples=in focus
3. definition=maximum clarity or distinctness of an idea | examples=the controversy brought clearly into focus an important difference of opinion
4. definition=a central point or locus of an infection in an organism | examples=the focus of infection
5. definition=special emphasis attached to something | examples=the stress was more on accuracy than on speed
6. definition=a point of convergence of light (or other radiation) or a point from which it diverges
7. definition=a fixed reference point on the concave side of a conic section

In the sentence, the conference "gained renewed focus" - this means it gained renewed concentration or attention on its purpose. The context suggests that the conference, which had been characterized by unruly posturing, now has a clearer direction or concentration on the task at hand (greenhouse-gas reductions).

Looking at definition 1: "the concentration of attention or energy on something" - this fits well. The conference gained renewed concentration/attention on its goals.

Definition 3 mentions "maximum clarity or distinctness of an idea" - this could potentially fit, but the example "the controversy brought clearly into focus an important difference of opinion" suggests something being brought into clarity or view, whereas the sentence says the conference itself gained focus.

Definition 5: "special emphasis attached to something" - this is close, but the example uses "stress" which is a synonym, but "focus" in the sentence seems more about the conference having a clearer direction or concentration rather than emphasis.

Actually, looking more carefully: "gained renewed focus" - this is similar to saying the conference became more focused. In the context of a meeting or conference, having "focus" means having a clear concentration on the main issues.

Definition 1 seems the best fit: "the concentration of attention or energy on something"

The example given is "the focus of activity shifted to molecular biology" - which is similar to how "focus" is used in the sentence - the conference gained renewed concentration/attention on its purpose.

Let me double-check definition 3: "maximum clarity or distinctness of an idea" - the example is "the controversy brought clearly into focus an important difference of opinion". This is about bringing something into view or clarity. But in the sentence, the conference itself is gaining focus, not something being brought into focus.

Definition 1 is about the concentration of attention or energy. When a conference gains focus, it means the participants are now concentrating their attention better on the main topic.

So the answer should be 1.

Wait, let me reconsider definition 5: "special emphasis attached to something" with the example "the stress was more on accuracy than on speed".

Actually, looking at the sentence again: "gained renewed focus" - this could mean that the conference gained a renewed sense of purpose or direction.

But definition 1 is the most general and common meaning of focus when referring to activities, events, or efforts. The conference had been chaotic (unruly posturing and mutual recriminations) and now it has gained renewed focus - meaning the attention is now concentrated on the actual task.

Yes, definition 1 is correct.

Actually, looking at the example for definition 1: "the focus of activity shifted to molecular biology" - this is a noun usage where focus means the center of attention or concentration.

In the sentence: "gained renewed focus" - focus is a noun here, meaning the state of being concentrated.

Definition 1: "the concentration of attention or energy on something" - this matches perfectly.

Definition 3 is about clarity of an idea, which is different.

So the answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a <t>document</t> outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term.

Senses:
1. definition=writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature)
2. definition=anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks
3. definition=a written account of ownership or obligation
4. definition=(computer science) a computer file that contains text (and possibly formatting instructions) using seven-bit ASCII characters

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

"The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a <t>document</t> outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

The senses provided are:
1. writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature)
2. anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks
3. a written account of ownership or obligation
4. (computer science) a computer file that contains text (and possibly formatting instructions) using seven-bit ASCII characters

Let me analyze the context:
- It's a U.N.-sponsored climate conference
- The document was "released"
- It outlines ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years
- It involves industrialized nations and burden sharing

This sounds like an official paper or report from a conference - likely something like a treaty, agreement, or official report.

Sense 1: "writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature)" - This fits well. It's an official document from a U.N. conference outlining policy.

Sense 2: "anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks" - This is too broad and philosophical. The context suggests a specific official paper, not just any representation of thinking.

Sense 3: "a written account of ownership or obligation" - This sounds like legal documents related to property or contracts. While the document might contain obligations (greenhouse-gas reductions), it's not primarily about ownership or obligation in the legal sense of deeds or contracts.

Sense 4: This is specifically about computer files with ASCII characters. The context doesn't suggest this is a computer file specifically - it's a document released at a conference, likely a paper or report.

Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit. It's an official writing providing information about greenhouse-gas reductions from a U.N. conference.

The answer should be: 1

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

Sentence: The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas <t>reductions</t> over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of decreasing or reducing something
2. definition=any process in which electrons are added to an atom or ion (as by removing oxygen or adding hydrogen); always occurs accompanied by oxidation of the reducing agent
3. definition=the act of reducing complexity

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which sense of "reduction" is used in the given sentence. The target word is marked with <t>reductions</t>.

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 "The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas <t>reductions</t> over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

 The context is about greenhouse-gas reductions. This refers to decreasing the amount of greenhouse gases.

 Now let's look at the three senses:
 1. definition=the act of decreasing or reducing something
 2. definition=any process in which electrons are added to an atom or ion (as by removing oxygen or adding hydrogen); always occurs accompanied by oxidation of the reducing agent
 3. definition=the act of reducing complexity

 Sense 2 is clearly a chemistry term (redox reactions), which doesn't fit here.

 Sense 3 is about reducing complexity, which doesn't fit either. Greenhouse-gas reductions are about decreasing the quantity or amount of gases, not making them less complex.

 Sense 1 is "the act of decreasing or reducing something." This fits perfectly. Greenhouse-gas reductions means decreasing or reducing the amount of greenhouse gases.

 So the answer is 1.

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

Sentence: The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 <t>years</t>, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term.

Senses:
1. definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old
2. definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year
3. definition=the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days
4. definition=a body of students who graduate together | examples=the class of '97

reasoning_content:
The user is asking me to identify which sense of "year" is used in the sentence. The word "years" is marked with <t> tags in the sentence: "over the next 40 <t>years</t>".

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 "The U.N.-sponsored climate conference ... gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

 The phrase is "over the next 40 years" - this refers to a period of time containing approximately 40 × 365 days.

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old
    - This refers to a general period of time measured in years.
    - "40 years" would mean 40 periods of 365/366 days each.

 2. definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year
    - This refers to specific institutional periods like "school year", "academic year", "fiscal year", etc.
    - The sentence doesn't mention any specific institutional year; it's just a general period of 40 years.

 3. definition=the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days
    - This is specifically about planetary revolution periods.
    - While "year" technically comes from Earth's revolution, in the context of "40 years" as a duration, this is not the specialized astronomical sense being used.

 4. definition=a body of students who graduate together | examples=the class of '97
    - This refers to a graduating class.
    - Clearly not applicable here.

 The phrase "over the next 40 years" is referring to a duration of time - 40 periods of approximately 365 days each. This is the basic, general sense of "year" as a unit of time.

 Sense 1 is "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days" with the example "she is 4 years old".

 In "she is 4 years old", "years" refers to periods of 365/366 days.
 Similarly, "over the next 40 years" refers to 40 periods of 365/366 days.

 This matches sense 1.

 Sense 2 is about specific institutional years (school year, fiscal year, etc.). The sentence is talking about a general 40-year period in the future, not a specific type of institutional year.

 Therefore, the answer should be 1.

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

Sentence: The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the <t>burden</t> in the near term.

Senses:
1. definition=an onerous or difficult concern | examples=the burden of responsibility
2. definition=weight to be borne or conveyed
3. definition=the central meaning or theme of a speech or literary work
4. definition=the central idea that is expanded in a document or discourse

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which sense of "burden" is used in the given sentence. Let me analyze the sentence and the definitions.

Sentence: "...with industrialized nations shouldering most of the <t>burden</t> in the near term."

The context is about climate conference, greenhouse-gas reductions, and industrialized nations taking responsibility for most of the reductions.

Now let's look at the senses:

1. definition=an onerous or difficult concern | examples=the burden of responsibility
2. definition=weight to be borne or conveyed
3. definition=the central meaning or theme of a speech or literary work
4. definition=the central idea that is expanded in a document or discourse

In the sentence, "burden" refers to the responsibility or obligation of reducing greenhouse gases, which is an onerous or difficult concern. The phrase "shouldering most of the burden" suggests taking on responsibility or a difficult task.

Sense 1 fits best: "an onerous or difficult concern" with the example "the burden of responsibility."

Sense 2 is about physical weight, which doesn't fit here (it's metaphorical).
Sense 3 is about the theme of a speech or literary work - not applicable.
Sense 4 is about the central idea of a document - not applicable.

The answer should be 1.

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

Sentence: The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near <t>term</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=a word or expression used for some particular thing | examples=he learned many medical terms
2. definition=a limited period of time | examples=a prison term
3. definition=(usually plural) a statement of what is required as part of an agreement | examples=the contract set out the conditions of the lease
4. definition=any distinct quantity contained in a polynomial | examples=the general term of an algebraic equation of the n-th degree
5. definition=one of the substantive phrases in a logical proposition | examples=the major term of a syllogism must occur twice
6. definition=the end of gestation or point at which birth is imminent | examples=a healthy baby born at full term
7. definition=(architecture) a statue or a human bust or an animal carved out of the top of a square pillar; originally used as a boundary marker in ancient Rome

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

Let me look at the sentence: "The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near <t>term</t>."

The phrase is "in the near term". This is a common expression meaning "in the near future" or "in the short term" - referring to a limited period of time.

Let me check the senses:
1. definition=a word or expression used for some particular thing - This doesn't fit. "term" here isn't referring to a word or expression.
2. definition=a limited period of time - This fits. "in the near term" means in the near future, a limited period of time.
3. definition=(usually plural) a statement of what is required as part of an agreement - This doesn't fit. We're not talking about terms of a contract here.
4. definition=any distinct quantity contained in a polynomial - Mathematical term, doesn't fit.
5. definition=one of the substantive phrases in a logical proposition - Logic term, doesn't fit.
6. definition=the end of gestation or point at which birth is imminent - This is about pregnancy/birth, doesn't fit.
7. definition=(architecture) a statue or a human bust... - Architectural term, doesn't fit.

The phrase "in the near term" is an idiom meaning "in the near future" or referring to a short period of time from now. This matches sense 2: "a limited period of time".

Examples given for sense 2: "a prison term" - yes, that refers to a period of time. "in the near term" also refers to a period of time.

So the answer should be 2.

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

Sentence: The <t>text</t>, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward.

Senses:
1. definition=the words of something written | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text
2. definition=a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon | examples=the preacher chose a text from Psalms to introduce his sermon
3. definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition
4. definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand

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

 The sentence is: "The <t>text</t>, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward."

 Let me analyze the context:
 - It's talking about something that could provide the basis for a final political deal
 - It's related to regulating greenhouse gases
 - It highlights obstacles and illuminates a path forward
 - This sounds like a document, written material, or written content being negotiated or discussed

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. "the words of something written" - examples: "there were more than a thousand words of text"
    - This is a general definition referring to written content/words.

 2. "a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon" - examples: "the preacher chose a text from Psalms..."
    - This is specifically biblical/religious context. The sentence is about political deals and greenhouse gases, so this doesn't fit.

 3. "a book prepared for use in schools or colleges" - examples: "his economics textbook..."
    - This refers to a textbook. The sentence doesn't mention education or a book for students. It's about a political deal.

 4. "the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.)" - examples: "pictures made the text easier to understand"
    - This distinguishes text from illustrations/footnotes.

 In the given sentence, "text" refers to a written document or the words/content of a written document that is being used as a basis for negotiation. This seems closest to sense 1: "the words of something written" or potentially sense 4.

 Let me reconsider. The sentence mentions "the text" as something that could provide the basis for a political deal. This sounds like a draft document, written proposal, or written agreement.

 Sense 1: "the words of something written" - This is very general and could fit.
 Sense 4: "the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.)" - This seems to be about the structure/layout of a publication (text vs pictures).

 In diplomatic or political contexts, "text" often refers to the wording or content of a document or agreement. For example, "the text of the treaty" or "the final text." This aligns with sense 1 - the words of something written.

 However, looking at the examples:
 - Sense 1 example: "there were more than a thousand words of text" - this refers to the quantity/words themselves
 - Sense 4 example: "pictures made the text easier to understand" - this contrasts text with pictures

 In the sentence, "the text" is being treated as a document or written content that can serve as a basis for a deal. It's referring to the written material itself.

 Actually, looking more carefully at sense 1: "the words of something written" - this captures the content/writing itself.

 Sense 4 is more specific about being the main body distinct from paratextual elements.

 In the context of political negotiations about greenhouse gases, "the text" likely refers to a draft document or the written content of a proposed agreement. This is most consistent with sense 1.

 Wait, let me look at the exact wording again. "The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal..."

 In international relations and diplomacy, when they refer to "the text" in negotiations, they usually mean the draft document or the written wording of an agreement.

 Between sense 1 and sense 4:
 - Sense 1 is broader: the words of something written
 - Sense 4 is more specific: main body distinct from illustrations/footnotes

 The sentence doesn't mention illustrations, pictures, footnotes, or anything that would contrast with "main body." It's simply referring to a written document/proposal.

 Therefore, sense 1 seems most appropriate: "the words of something written" or more generally, a written work/document.

 Actually, looking at typical dictionary entries for "text":
 - Sense 1 often covers the general meaning of written words or a written document
 - Sense 4 is specifically about the main body vs auxiliary elements

 Given the context about a political deal and greenhouse gases, this is referring to a document or written proposal. The most fitting definition is sense 1.

 Let me double-check by elimination:
 - Sense 2: Bible passage? No.
 - Sense 3: School textbook? No.
 - Sense 4: Main body vs illustrations? No mention of illustrations or layout.
 - Sense 1: The words of something written? Yes, this fits a written document/proposal.

 The answer should be 1.

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

Sentence: The text, which could provide the <t>basis</t> for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward.

Senses:
1. definition=a relation that provides the foundation for something | examples=they were on a friendly footing
2. definition=the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed or calculated or explained | examples=the whole argument rested on a basis of conjecture
3. definition=the most important or necessary part of something | examples=the basis of this drink is orange juice

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "basis" is used in the given sentence. Let me analyze the sentence and the definitions.

Sentence: "The text, which could provide the <t>basis</t> for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward."

The word "basis" here is used in the context of providing a foundation or starting point for a final political deal. The text serves as the foundation upon which the political deal can be built or developed.

Now let's look at the three senses:

1. "a relation that provides the foundation for something" - examples: "they were on a friendly footing"
   - This seems to be about a state of relations or footing between parties.

2. "the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed or calculated or explained" - examples: "the whole argument rested on a basis of conjecture"
   - This is about the starting point, foundation, or underlying assumptions for developing something.

3. "the most important or necessary part of something" - examples: "the basis of this drink is orange juice"
   - This is about the main ingredient or component.

In the sentence, the text provides the "basis" for a political deal. This means the text serves as the foundation or starting point from which the deal is developed or created.

Sense 2 mentions "from which something is begun or developed" - this fits well because the text is providing the foundation for developing the political deal.

Sense 1 talks about a "relation" and uses the example "friendly footing" which doesn't fit here.

Sense 3 talks about the "most important or necessary part" like an ingredient in a drink. While the text is important, the context suggests it's providing the foundational framework or starting point for the deal, not that it is the main component/ingredient of the deal.

Actually, looking more carefully:
- Sense 2: "the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed or calculated or explained"
- The text provides the basis for a deal. A text can provide the fundamental assumptions or framework from which a deal is developed.

Wait, let me reconsider Sense 1: "a relation that provides the foundation for something"
The example is "they were on a friendly footing" - this seems to be using "basis" in the sense of "footing" or "status of relations."

Sense 2 seems most appropriate: "the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed"
The text provides the foundation/starting point for the deal to be developed.

Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions:
- Basis can mean: the underlying support or foundation for an idea, argument, or process
- It can mean: the system or process according to which an activity is carried out
- It can mean: the justification for or reasoning behind something

In this context, "provide the basis for" means to provide the foundation or starting point for.

Sense 2 says: "the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed"
This matches "provide the basis for a final political deal" - the text provides the fundamental assumptions/starting point from which the deal is developed.

Sense 3 is about ingredients or main components: "the most important or necessary part of something" like "the basis of this drink is orange juice." This doesn't fit because the text isn't an ingredient of the deal.

Sense 1 is about relations: "a relation that provides the foundation" - this doesn't fit because the text isn't a relation.

Therefore, the answer is 2.

Wait, let me double-check the exact wording of sense 2: "the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed or calculated or explained"

Yes, the text provides the fundamental framework/starting point (basis) from which the political deal is developed.

The answer should be 2.

The sentence is: "The text, which could provide the basis for a final political <t>deal</t> to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward."

The word "deal" here is used in the context of a "political deal" to regulate greenhouse gases. This suggests an agreement between parties.

Let me look at the senses:
1. buying or selling - this is about commercial transactions, not political agreements
2. an agreement between parties (usually arrived at after discussion) fixing obligations of each - this fits "political deal" perfectly
3. a large number or amount - this doesn't fit (often followed by 'of')
4. a plank of softwood - physical object, doesn't fit
5. wood that is easy to saw - material, doesn't fit
6. cards held in a card game - doesn't fit
7. the type of treatment received (especially as the result of an agreement) - this is about treatment/deal as in "raw deal" or "good deal", not the agreement itself
8. the act of distributing playing cards - doesn't fit
9. the act of apportioning or distributing something - doesn't fit

Sense 2 is clearly the correct one: "an agreement between parties (usually arrived at after discussion) fixing obligations of each". A political deal is an agreement between political parties or nations.

The answer should be just the number: 2

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

Sentence: The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining <t>obstacles</t> as much as it illuminated a path forward.

Senses:
1. definition=something immaterial that stands in the way and must be circumvented or surmounted | examples=lack of imagination is an obstacle to one's advancement
2. definition=an obstruction that stands in the way (and must be removed or surmounted or circumvented)

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

 Sentence: "The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining <t>obstacles</t> as much as it illuminated a path forward."

 Senses:
 1. definition=something immaterial that stands in the way and must be circumvented or surmounted | examples=lack of imagination is an obstacle to one's advancement
 2. definition=an obstruction that stands in the way (and must be removed or surmounted or circumvented)

 Let me analyze the context. The sentence is talking about a political deal to regulate greenhouse gases. The "obstacles" here refer to difficulties, challenges, or barriers in reaching a political agreement. These are likely abstract/immaterial things like disagreements, political opposition, technical challenges, etc., rather than physical obstructions.

 Sense 1 specifically mentions "something immaterial" - like lack of imagination, which is abstract.
 Sense 2 mentions "an obstruction" which could be interpreted as more physical, though not necessarily.

 However, looking at the definitions:
 - Sense 1: "something immaterial that stands in the way"
 - Sense 2: "an obstruction that stands in the way"

 In the context of political deals and regulating greenhouse gases, the obstacles would be things like disagreements between countries, economic concerns, legal barriers, political will, etc. These are immaterial/abstract obstacles.

 The example for sense 1 is "lack of imagination is an obstacle to one's advancement" - this is clearly abstract/immaterial.

 Sense 2 seems more general or potentially physical, though "obstruction" can be abstract too.

 But looking carefully at the definitions:
 - Sense 1 emphasizes "immaterial"
 - Sense 2 emphasizes "obstruction" (which often implies something more concrete, though not always)

 In the context of diplomatic/political negotiations (greenhouse gases, political deal), the obstacles are abstract challenges - disagreements, conflicting interests, regulatory hurdles, etc. These are immaterial.

 Therefore, sense 1 seems more appropriate.

 Wait, let me reconsider. The sentence mentions "remaining obstacles" in the context of a political deal. In diplomatic contexts, obstacles can be both material (like physical barriers) or immaterial (like disagreements). But given the subject is greenhouse gas regulation, the obstacles are likely policy disagreements, economic concerns, technical challenges - all immaterial.

 Also, looking at the example for sense 1: "lack of imagination is an obstacle to one's advancement" - this is clearly about abstract concepts.

 Sense 2's definition: "an obstruction that stands in the way" - this could be a physical barrier or an abstract one, but the word "obstruction" often has a more concrete connotation than the general sense 1.

 Actually, looking at WordNet or similar lexical databases (which this format resembles):
 - Sense 1 usually refers to abstract obstacles (immaterial)
 - Sense 2 usually refers to physical obstacles (material)

 In the sentence about political deals and greenhouse gases, we're dealing with abstract challenges.

 Therefore, the answer should be 1.

 But let me double-check. Could it be 2?

 The sentence: "highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward"

 In political contexts, we often talk about "obstacles" to a deal. These are typically abstract: differences in position, lack of trust, competing interests, etc.

 Sense 1: "something immaterial"
 Sense 2: "an obstruction"

 While both could work, the specificity of sense 1 being "immaterial" fits better with political/diplomatic obstacles, whereas sense 2 being "obstruction" might better fit physical barriers like a wall or a fallen tree.

 Also, the example for sense 1 ("lack of imagination") is clearly abstract, matching the political context.

 So I should return: 1

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

Sentence: The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a <t>path</t> forward.

Senses:
1. definition=a course of conduct | examples=the path of virtue

3. definition=an established line of travel or access
4. definition=a line or route along which something travels or moves | examples=the hurricane demolished houses in its path

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "path" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a <t>path</t> forward."

The senses are:
1. definition=a course of conduct | examples=the path of virtue
2. definition=a way especially designed for a particular use
3. definition=an established line of travel or access
4. definition=a line or route along which something travels or moves | examples=the hurricane demolished houses in its path

Let me analyze the sentence context. The sentence is talking about a text that could provide the basis for a political deal to regulate greenhouse gases. It says the text highlighted obstacles but also illuminated a "path forward."

In this context, "path forward" means a way to proceed, a course of action, or a method for achieving the goal (regulating greenhouse gases through a political deal). This is metaphorical, referring to a course of conduct or way of proceeding.

Looking at the definitions:
1. "a course of conduct" - This fits well. "Path of virtue" is given as an example, which is metaphorical. "Path forward" in the context of political negotiations refers to the course of action or conduct to follow.

2. "a way especially designed for a particular use" - This sounds like a physical path (like a bike path, walking path). Not fitting here.

3. "an established line of travel or access" - This is also physical, like a road or trail. Not fitting for the metaphorical use in the sentence.

4. "a line or route along which something travels or moves" - Again, physical movement (like the hurricane example). Not fitting.

So sense 1 is the correct answer. The "path" here refers to a course of conduct or way of proceeding in the political context.

Wait, let me double-check. Is there any other interpretation?

"Path forward" is an idiom meaning a way to make progress or a plan for future action. This aligns with "course of conduct" (sense 1).

Sense 1 examples include "the path of virtue" which is abstract/moral. The sentence uses "path" in an abstract sense - the way to proceed with the political deal.

Therefore, the answer is 1.

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

 Sentence: "But it was seen as an important <t>advance</t> in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week."

 Let me analyze the context:
 - The word "advance" is being used as a noun (preceded by "an important")
 - It's referring to something positive in a negotiation
 - The context suggests progress or improvement in the negotiation process

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. "a movement forward" - examples mention "progress of the troops" - this seems more physical/literal movement
 2. "a change for the better; progress in development" - this fits well with a negotiation making progress
 3. "a tentative suggestion designed to elicit the reactions of others" - examples mention "she rejected his advances" - this is about romantic or social advances, not relevant here
 4. "the act of moving forward (as toward a goal)" - similar to #1 but more abstract
 5. "an amount paid before it is earned" - financial term, not relevant
 6. "increase in price or value" - financial/stock market term, not relevant

 Between senses 1, 2, and 4:
 - Sense 1 focuses on physical movement (troops)
 - Sense 4 focuses on the act of moving toward a goal
 - Sense 2 focuses on a change for the better/progress in development

 In the context of a negotiation, "an important advance" means progress or improvement - a step forward in the process that is beneficial. This aligns best with sense 2: "a change for the better; progress in development."

 Sense 4 could also be plausible ("the act of moving forward"), but sense 2 specifically captures the positive connotation ("change for the better") which fits with "important" and the context of a negotiation where progress is being made despite time running out.

 Actually, looking more carefully:
 - Sense 1: "a movement forward" - could be physical or abstract
 - Sense 2: "a change for the better; progress in development" - emphasizes improvement
 - Sense 4: "the act of moving forward (as toward a goal)" - emphasizes the action/process

 The phrase "an important advance" treats "advance" as a countable noun referring to a specific instance of progress. In diplomatic/negotiation contexts, "advance" usually means progress or improvement (sense 2).

 Let me double-check by looking at typical dictionary definitions:
 - Oxford: "a development or improvement"
 - Merriam-Webster: "progress in development"

 Yes, sense 2 seems correct: "a change for the better; progress in development"

 Wait, let me reconsider sense 4: "the act of moving forward (as toward a goal)". This is also plausible.

 But looking at the specific wording:
 - Sense 2: "a change for the better; progress in development"
 - Sense 4: "the act of moving forward (as toward a goal)"

 The example in sense 1 mentions "progress of the troops" which suggests physical movement.
 The example in sense 6 mentions stock market advances.

 In the sentence, "it was seen as an important advance" - "it" refers to some development, agreement, or step in the negotiation. This is being characterized as progress or a positive development.

 Sense 2 specifically mentions "progress in development" which matches perfectly with a negotiation context where parties are developing toward an agreement.

 I think the answer is 2.

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

Sentence: But it was seen as an important advance in a <t>negotiation</t> that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week.

Senses:

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

 Sentence: "But it was seen as an important advance in a <t>negotiation</t> that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week."

 Senses:
 1. definition=a discussion intended to produce an agreement | examples=the buyout negotiation lasted several days
 2. definition=the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

 Let me analyze the context. The sentence mentions "a negotiation that is running out of time" and mentions "100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen" (likely referring to the Copenhagen Climate Summit or similar diplomatic event).

 The word "negotiation" here refers to the specific discussion/process aimed at producing an agreement. It's referring to a particular instance of bargaining/discussion between parties.

 Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement" - this seems to fit. The sentence is talking about a specific negotiation process that is time-bound.

 Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement" - this seems more general, referring to the concept or practice of negotiating, or the business aspect.

 In the sentence, "a negotiation" suggests a specific instance or event of discussing terms, not the general activity or business. The phrase "running out of time" suggests a specific temporal process.

 Looking at the examples:
 - Sense 1 example: "the buyout negotiation lasted several days" - this refers to a specific instance of negotiation.
 - Sense 2 seems to be about the general concept or the business of negotiating.

 The sentence structure "in a negotiation" parallels "the buyout negotiation" in sense 1. It's referring to a specific diplomatic negotiation happening in Copenhagen.

 Therefore, sense 1 is the correct answer.

 Wait, let me reconsider. Sense 2 says "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms". This could also fit. But "a negotiation" in the singular usually refers to a specific discussion (sense 1), whereas "negotiation" as an uncountable or general concept would be sense 2.

 Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions (like WordNet or similar), sense 1 is usually the specific discussion/event, and sense 2 is the process/activity in general.

 The sentence: "an important advance in a negotiation" - this is referring to a specific negotiation process/event. So sense 1.

 But let me double-check. In the context of the Copenhagen climate talks, they are referring to the ongoing negotiations (plural) or the negotiation process. But here it says "a negotiation" (singular).

 Actually, looking carefully: "in a negotiation that is running out of time" - this treats it as a singular event/process with a deadline.

 Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement" - this fits well.
 Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating" - this is more abstract.

 The example for sense 1 uses "the buyout negotiation" which is a specific instance.
 The sentence uses "a negotiation" which is also a specific instance.

 I think the answer is 1.

 But I want to make sure about sense 2. If sense 2 is "the activity or business", then "in a negotiation" wouldn't fit well with an uncountable sense. You wouldn't say "in a business" to mean the general activity, you'd say "in business" or "in the business of..."

 Therefore, sense 1 is correct.

 Final check: The sentence is talking about the Copenhagen climate negotiations (COP15). It's referring to the specific set of talks/discussions happening there. This is definitely sense 1.

 Answer: 1

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

Sentence: But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of <t>time</t>, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week.

Senses:
1. definition=an instance or single occasion for some event | examples=this time he succeeded
2. definition=a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something | examples=take time to smell the roses
3. definition=an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities) | examples=he waited a long time
4. definition=a suitable moment | examples=it is time to go
5. definition=the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past
6. definition=a person's experience on a particular occasion | examples=he had a time holding back the tears
7. definition=a reading of a point in time as given by a clock | examples=do you know what time it is?
8. definition=the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event
9. definition=rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration
10. definition=the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned | examples=he served a prison term of 15 months

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

Sentence: "But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of <t>time</t>, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week."

The phrase is "running out of time". Let me look at the senses:

1. an instance or single occasion for some event - "this time he succeeded" - doesn't fit.
2. a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something - "take time to smell the roses" - "running out of time" means you don't have sufficient time left to accomplish something. This seems like a strong candidate.
3. an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities) - "he waited a long time" - not quite.
4. a suitable moment - "it is time to go" - not exactly.
5. the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past - this is the abstract concept of time, but "running out of time" is more specific.
6. a person's experience on a particular occasion - "he had a time holding back the tears" - no.
7. a reading of a point in time as given by a clock - "do you know what time it is?" - no.
8. the fourth coordinate... - physics definition - no.
9. rhythm... - music definition - no.
10. the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned - "he served a prison term" - no.

"Running out of time" means that the available period to accomplish something is nearly exhausted. This matches sense 2: "a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something". When you run out of time, you no longer have sufficient time to accomplish the negotiation.

Let me double-check. Sense 2 examples: "take time to smell the roses", "I didn't have time to finish", "it took more than half my time". The definition mentions "a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something". "Running out of time" fits perfectly here - time as a resource that is being depleted.

Sense 5 is the general concept of time, but in "running out of time", it's specifically about available time as a resource for an activity.

So the answer should be 2.

Sentence: But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world <t>leaders</t> arriving in Copenhagen next week.

The user wants me to identify which sense of the word "leader" is used in the given sentence. The word is marked with <t></t> tags in the sentence.

 Sentence: "But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world <t>leaders</t> arriving in Copenhagen next week."

 The two senses provided are:
 1. definition=a person who rules or guides or inspires others
 2. definition=a featured article of merchandise sold at a loss in order to draw customers

 Let me analyze the context:
 - The sentence mentions "world leaders"
 - They are arriving in Copenhagen (likely for a summit or conference, probably referring to the Copenhagen Climate Summit)
 - "World leaders" typically refers to heads of state, presidents, prime ministers, etc.
 - These are people who rule or guide nations

 Sense 1 fits perfectly: "a person who rules or guides or inspires others" - this describes political leaders, heads of state, etc.

 Sense 2 refers to a marketing term (loss leader), which is a product sold at a loss to attract customers. This doesn't make sense in the context of "world leaders" arriving in a city for a negotiation.

 Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

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

Sentence: But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next <t>week</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=any period of seven consecutive days | examples=it rained for a week
2. definition=hours or days of work in a calendar week | examples=they worked a 40-hour week
3. definition=a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which sense of "week" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next <t>week</t>."

Let me analyze the three senses:

1. "any period of seven consecutive days" - This is a general, non-specific period of 7 days.
2. "hours or days of work in a calendar week" - This refers specifically to work time, like a 40-hour work week.
3. "a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday" - This is a specific calendar week starting on Sunday.

In the sentence, "next week" refers to the upcoming calendar week. When we say "next week" in the context of scheduling events (like world leaders arriving), we typically mean the specific calendar week that follows the current one.

However, I need to look carefully at the definitions. Sense 3 specifies "starting on Sunday" - this is a specific convention (primarily used in the US and some other countries). Sense 1 is more general - any 7 consecutive days.

But "next week" in common parlance usually refers to the next calendar week. The question is whether sense 3 is the right fit or if sense 1 is.

Let me think about the distinction:
- Sense 1: "any period of seven consecutive days" - This could be any 7-day span, like "a week from today" or "it rained for a week."
- Sense 3: "a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday" - This is a specific week on the calendar.

In the sentence "arriving in Copenhagen next week", this refers to the upcoming calendar week. In many dictionaries, "week" sense 1 is the general sense, while sense 3 is the specific calendar week starting on Sunday.

But wait, looking at the examples:
- Sense 1 example: "it rained for a week" - this is a duration of 7 days.
- Sense 3: specifies starting on Sunday.

Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions (like WordNet or similar), usually:
- Sense 1: calendar week (Sunday to Saturday or Monday to Sunday depending on locale, but often specified as starting on Sunday in some dictionaries)
- Sense 2: work week
- Sense 3: any consecutive 7 days

Wait, the numbering here might be different. Let me look at the given senses again:

1. definition=any period of seven consecutive days | examples=it rained for a week
2. definition=hours or days of work in a calendar week | examples=they worked a 40-hour week
3. definition=a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday

So:
- Sense 1: General 7-day period (duration)
- Sense 2: Work week
- Sense 3: Specific calendar week (Sunday-start)

In "next week", we're referring to a specific calendar week - the one coming up next. This would be sense 3.

But I need to be careful. In many lexical databases like WordNet:
- Sense 1: week, calendar week (a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday and continuing through Saturday)
- Sense 2: workweek, week (hours or days of work in a calendar week)
- Sense 3: week (any period of seven consecutive days)

Actually, looking at the order given:
1. any period of seven consecutive days
2. hours or days of work
3. starting on Sunday

So the question is: does "next week" refer to:
- Any 7-day period starting from now? (Sense 1)
- A work week? (Sense 2 - clearly not, since world leaders arriving isn't about work hours)
- The calendar week starting on Sunday? (Sense 3)

"Next week" typically refers to the next calendar week. For example, if today is Wednesday, "next week" could mean:
- Starting from next Sunday (if using sense 3)
- Or the next 7 days
- Or Monday-Sunday of next week

But given the specific definition of sense 3 as "starting on Sunday", and sense 1 as "any period", "next week" in the context of scheduling an event like world leaders arriving would most naturally refer to the calendar week.

However, I should consider whether "next week" could be sense 1. "Any period of seven consecutive days" is a duration sense, like "for a week." But "next week" refers to a specific time period on the calendar.

Actually, looking at the example for sense 1: "it rained for a week" - this shows a duration.
Sense 3: "a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday" - this is a specific calendar interval.

"Next week" refers to a specific calendar interval, not just any 7-day duration. So it should be sense 3.

Wait, but I need to check if there's ambiguity. In some lexical semantic datasets (like WordNet), the primary sense of "week" when referring to "next week" or "last week" is the calendar week.

Let me verify with the definitions provided:
- Sense 1: "any period" - this is the generic, duration sense
- Sense 3: "starting on Sunday" - this is the specific calendar sense

"Next week" = the week that comes next on the calendar. This is sense 3.

But actually, looking at standard English usage, "week" can mean:
1. A period of 7 days (duration)
2. The work week (Monday-Friday or 40 hours)
3. A calendar week (Sunday-Saturday or Monday-Sunday)

Given the definitions:
1. any period of seven consecutive days
2. hours or days of work in a calendar week
3. a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday

"Next week" in the sentence refers to the upcoming calendar week. World leaders arriving "next week" means during the next calendar week. This matches sense 3.

However, I should double-check: could it be sense 1? Sense 1 is broader and refers to any 7-day period. But when we say "next week" without qualification, we mean the specific upcoming week on the calendar, not just any 7-day period starting now.

Actually, looking at WordNet 3.0 or similar:
- week, calendar week: a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday and continuing through Saturday
- workweek, week: hours or days of work in a calendar week
- week: any period of seven consecutive days

So yes, sense 3 here corresponds to the calendar week sense.

The answer should be 3.

But let me reconsider one more time. Is there any chance it's sense 1?

"Next week" could theoretically be interpreted as "the next 7 days" (sense 1), but that's not the standard interpretation. The standard interpretation is the next calendar week.

Also, looking at the example for sense 1: "it rained for a week" - this is clearly a duration.
The example for sense 2: "they worked a 40-hour week" - clearly about work.
Sense 3 has no example given, but the definition specifies "starting on Sunday."

In the context of world leaders arriving for a negotiation in Copenhagen, this is scheduled for a specific calendar week, not just any 7-day period.

Therefore, the answer is 3.

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

Sentence: Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the <t>text</t> is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term.

3. definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition
4. definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand

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

Let me analyze the sentence: "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the <t>text</t> is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term."

The context suggests this is referring to a document, likely a legal or official document (like a treaty, agreement, or report) created by a U.N. working group. The "text" here refers to the written content of this document.

Now let's look at the senses:

1. "the words of something written" - This is a general definition referring to the words/content of a written work. This could fit, as the sentence is talking about the content of a document being silent on certain issues.

2. "a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon" - This is clearly not correct. There's no religious context here.

3. "a book prepared for use in schools or colleges" - This refers to a textbook. The sentence is not talking about a textbook; it's talking about a document forged by a U.N. working group regarding global warming/finance.

4. "the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.)" - This refers to the main body vs. supplementary materials. While this could potentially fit, the sentence seems to be using "text" to mean the document itself or its wording/content, not specifically distinguishing it from illustrations or footnotes.

Looking more carefully at sense 1: "the words of something written" - examples include "there were more than a thousand words of text". This seems to refer to the textual content, the wording.

In the given sentence, "the text is silent on..." means the document/wording doesn't address or mention something. This aligns with sense 1 - referring to the words/content of the written document.

Sense 4 is more specific about being the main body as opposed to illustrations/footnotes. While the U.N. document could have footnotes, the usage "the text is silent on" is more about the content not addressing something, rather than distinguishing main body from supplementary material.

Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions, sense 1 seems to be the most general and appropriate here. The sentence is referring to the wording of the agreement/document produced by the U.N. group.

Wait, let me reconsider sense 4. In legal and diplomatic contexts, "text" often refers to the main body of a document as opposed to annexes, footnotes, etc. But the phrase "is silent on" is a common legal/diplomatic phrase meaning "does not address" or "does not specify."

Between sense 1 and sense 4:
- Sense 1: "the words of something written" - very general
- Sense 4: "the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.)" - specific distinction

The example for sense 4 is "pictures made the text easier to understand" - clearly distinguishing text from illustrations.

The example for sense 1 is "there were more than a thousand words of text" - referring to the amount of written content.

In the U.N. context sentence, "the text" refers to the document or the wording of the agreement. It's not necessarily making a distinction between main body and illustrations (though it could be). However, sense 1 is broader and more likely to be the intended answer because:
1. It's the most common definition of "text"
2. The sentence is about the content being silent on an issue, which relates to "words of something written"
3. Sense 4 is quite specific about the distinction from non-text elements

But I should look at whether this is from a specific dataset like WordNet or similar. The format looks like it could be from a word sense disambiguation dataset.

In WordNet, "text" has several senses:
1. text, textual matter - the words of something written
2. text - a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon
3. textbook, text, text edition - a book prepared for use in schools or colleges
4. text - the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.)

Given the sentence is about a U.N. document regarding global warming, and saying it is "silent" on certain issues, this is most likely sense 1. The word "text" here refers to the wording/content of the document.

Sense 4 would be used if we were contrasting the text with tables, figures, or footnotes. While possible, the primary meaning here is simply "the written document" or "the words of the written document."

Therefore, the answer should be 1.

Sentence: Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much <t>money</t> rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term.

Senses:

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "money" is used in the given sentence. The sentence is: "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much <t>money</t> rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term."

I need to look at the three senses provided:
1. definition=the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender | examples=we tried to collect the money he owed us
2. definition=wealth reckoned in terms of money | examples=all his money is in real estate
3. definition=the official currency issued by a government or national bank | examples=he changed his money into francs

Now, let's analyze the context of the sentence. The sentence is talking about rich countries giving money to poor countries to cope with global warming. This refers to financial aid, funds, or currency that would be transferred.

Sense 1: "the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender" - This seems to fit. It's referring to money as a medium of exchange that rich countries would give to poor countries.

Sense 2: "wealth reckoned in terms of money" - This refers to wealth or assets measured in monetary terms. The sentence isn't talking about the wealth of the countries being reckoned, but rather actual funds/currency being transferred.

Sense 3: "the official currency issued by a government or national bank" - This refers to specific currency (like dollars, euros, etc.). While the sentence could imply currency, it's more about the funds/medium of exchange in general rather than specifically the official currency issued by a government. Also, the example "he changed his money into francs" suggests physical currency or specific monetary units, whereas the sentence is about financial transfers/aid.

Looking at the examples:
- Sense 1 example: "we tried to collect the money he owed us" - This is about collecting funds/debt, similar to giving money in the sentence.
- Sense 2 example: "all his money is in real estate" - This is about wealth being in a form other than cash.
- Sense 3 example: "he changed his money into francs" - This is about converting currency types.

The sentence is about financial aid/assistance - giving money (funds) from rich to poor countries. This aligns best with sense 1: the medium of exchange/legal tender that functions as payment.

Actually, looking more carefully:
Sense 1 is the general concept of money as medium of exchange.
Sense 2 is about wealth.
Sense 3 is about currency specifically.

The sentence "how much money rich countries would give" suggests funds/financial resources. This is closest to sense 1. It's asking about the amount of financial resources (medium of exchange) to be transferred.

Sense 2 would be if it said something like "all their money is tied up in infrastructure" or referring to their wealth.
Sense 3 would be if it talked about specific currencies like dollars or euros.

Therefore, the answer should be 1.

Wait, let me reconsider. Is there any ambiguity?

"how much money" - quantifying the amount of funds. This is clearly sense 1. It's the standard meaning of money as a medium of exchange.

Sense 1: "the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender"
Sense 2: "wealth reckoned in terms of money"
Sense 3: "the official currency issued by a government or national bank"

In the sentence, "money" refers to the funds/financial resources that would be transferred. This is sense 1.

The example for sense 1 ("we tried to collect the money he owed us") also involves transfer of funds/debt payment, which is analogous to the giving of money in the sentence.

So the answer is 1.
