We need to determine which numbered sense of "do" is used in the sentence: "Of course On Thursday, Haney mailed the monthly check for separate maintenance to his wife Lolly, and wished the stranger could <t>do</t> something about her"

We have 13 senses listed. Let's parse the sentence. The phrase is "wished the stranger could do something about her". The idiom "do something about" means to take action to change or improve a situation. So "do" here means to carry out or perform an action, or perhaps "get something done". Let's examine the senses.

Sense 1: engage in (make love, not war). Not this.
Sense 2: carry out or perform an action. Examples: John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters. This is a general sense of performing an action. "Do something about her" means perform some action regarding her. That seems plausible.
Sense 3: get (something) done. Example: I did my job. This is also close. But "do something about her" is more like performing an action rather than completing a task. However, sense 3 is "get (something) done". The phrase "do something" is an activity.
Sense 5: give rise to; cause to happen. Not exactly.
Sense 7: be sufficient. "do" as in "that will do". Not this.
Sense 11: carry on or function. "We could do with a little more help". Not this.
Sense 9: behave in a certain manner. Not this.

The phrase "do something about" is a fixed expression. In WordNet or similar lexicons, "do" sense 2 is often "carry out or perform an action". Sense 3 is "get (something) done". Let's see typical WordNet senses for "do". I recall WordNet 3.0 senses for verb "do":

1. engage in -- "make love, not war"
2. perform, execute, do -- "John did the painting"
3. do, perform -- "I did my job"
4. do, fare, make out, come, get along -- "How is she doing?"
5. cause, do, make -- "cause a commotion"
6. practice, practise, exercise, do -- "practice law"
7. suffice, do, answer, serve -- "A few words would answer"
8. do, make -- "do my room in blue"
9. act, behave, do -- "You should act like an adult"
10. serve, do -- "He did six years"
11. do, manage -- "We could do with a little more help"
12. dress, arrange, set, do, coif, coiffe, coiffure -- "dress my hair"
13. travel, do -- "This car does 150 miles per hour"

Wait, the numbering in the prompt might correspond to WordNet senses but maybe slightly different ordering. Let's map:

Prompt sense 1: engage in | examples=make love, not war -> WordNet sense 1.
Prompt sense 2: carry out or perform an action | examples=John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters -> WordNet sense 2 (perform).
Prompt sense 3: get (something) done | examples=I did my job -> WordNet sense 3 (perform, accomplish).
Prompt sense 4: proceed or get along -> WordNet sense 4.
Prompt sense 5: give rise to; cause -> WordNet sense 5.
Prompt sense 6: carry out or practice; as of jobs and professions -> WordNet sense 6 (practice).
Prompt sense 7: be sufficient -> WordNet sense 7.
Prompt sense 8: create or design -> WordNet sense 8.
Prompt sense 9: behave in a certain manner -> WordNet sense 9.
Prompt sense 10: spend time in prison -> WordNet sense 10.
Prompt sense 11: carry on or function -> WordNet sense 11.
Prompt sense 12: arrange attractively -> WordNet sense 12.
Prompt sense 13: travel or traverse -> WordNet sense 13.

So the mapping is likely direct WordNet order.

Now, "do something about her". The phrase "do something" is often sense 2 or 3. Let's see the difference between sense 2 and 3 in WordNet.

WordNet sense 2: perform, execute, do - carry out or perform an action. "John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters". The key is performing a specific action.

WordNet sense 3: do, perform - get (something) done. "I did my job". This is more about accomplishing a task.

In the sentence, "wished the stranger could do something about her". The phrase "do something about" means to take action to deal with a problem. It's a general action. In WordNet, the example for sense 2 includes "John did the painting, the weeding..." which is performing activities. The example for sense 3 is "I did my job" which is completing a duty.

But "do something" is very general. Let's see if there is a specific WordNet sense for "do something". In many lexical semantic tasks, "do something" is often annotated as sense 2 (perform an action). However, "do" in "do something about" might be sense 2 or sense 3. Let's think about the semantics.

The phrase "do something about X" means to take some action to change the situation of X. It is an active performance. Sense 2: "carry out or perform an action". Sense 3: "get (something) done". The object of sense 3 is usually a task or job. Here the object is "something", which is an action. So sense 2 seems more appropriate.

But let's check if there is any other sense that could fit. Sense 5: cause. "do something about her" could be interpreted as cause something to happen to her? But the definition says "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally". Example: cause a commotion. "Do something about her" is not causing something; it's performing an action.

Sense 11: "carry on or function". Example: "We could do with a little more help". Not this.

Sense 9: behave. Not this.

Thus it's between 2 and 3. Let's examine the exact wording of sense 2: "carry out or perform an action". The example: "John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters". This is transitive with a concrete object. Sense 3: "get (something) done". Example: "I did my job". Also transitive.

In the sentence, "could do something about her". The word "something" is the object. "Do something" is a very common collocation. In WordNet, sense 2 often covers "do" when used with activities or actions. Sense 3 is more about accomplishing or completing. "Do something" is usually sense 2. For instance, in SemCor or other corpora, "do" in "do something" is often tagged as sense 2 (perform). Let me recall: WordNet sense 2: "perform, execute, do". The gloss: "carry out or perform an action". The example: "John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters". The direct object is a nominalized action (the painting). In "do something", "something" stands for an action. So sense 2.

Sense 3: "do, perform". Gloss: "get (something) done". Example: "I did my job". The emphasis is on completing a task. "Do something about her" doesn't imply completing a pre-defined task; it's just taking some unspecified action. So sense 2 is better.

But wait, there is also sense 1: "engage in". Example: "make love, not war". That is also about performing. But sense 1 is more about engaging in an activity, often used with "make" vs "do"? Actually WordNet sense 1 for "do" is: "engage in; 'make love, not war'; 'make an effort'; 'do research'; 'do nothing'". Wait, the example "make love, not war" is actually for the verb "make"? No, WordNet sense 1 of "do" might be: "make love, not war" is under "make"? Let's check. Actually WordNet verb "do" sense 1: engage in -- "make love, not war"; "make an effort"; "do research"; "do nothing". Wait, "make love" is under "make"? Hmm. But the prompt says sense 1 definition=engage in | examples=make love, not war. That seems odd because "make love" uses "make". But maybe the example is illustrating the concept of engaging in an activity. However, "do nothing" would be a better example. Anyway.

Sense 1 might be "engage in". "Do something" could be engage in something. But the example "make love, not war" is not using "do". However, the prompt's sense 1 is "engage in". The example might be just a general example of the concept, not necessarily using the target word? Actually usually examples use the word. But "make love" uses "make". Maybe it's a mistake in the prompt. But let's assume the definitions are correct.

If sense 1 is "engage in", then "do something" could be "engage in something". But sense 2 is more specific: "carry out or perform an action". I think sense 2 is the standard sense for "do something".

Let's search my memory: In WordNet, "do" sense 2 is the most frequent sense, often used for general action. "Do something" is definitely sense 2. For example, in the sentence "He did nothing", it's sense 1? Actually "do nothing" might be sense 1: engage in. But "do something" might be sense 2. Let's check WordNet carefully.

WordNet 3.1 entry for verb "do":

Overview of verb do

S: (v) make, do (engage in) "make love, not war"; "make an effort"; "do research"; "do nothing"
S: (v) perform, execute, do (carry out or perform an action) "John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters"; "the skater executed a triple pirouette"; "she did a little dance"
S: (v) do, perform (get (something) done) "I did my job"
S: (v) do, fare, make out, come, get along (proceed or get along) "How is she doing in her new job?"
S: (v) cause, do, make (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) "cause a commotion"; "make a stir"; "cause an accident"
S: (v) practice, practise, exercise, do (carry out or practice; as of jobs and professions) "practice law"
S: (v) suffice, do, answer, serve (be sufficient; be adequate, either in quality or quantity) "A few words would answer"; "This car suits my purpose well"; "Will $100 do?"; "A 'B' grade doesn't suffice to get me into medical school"; "Nothing else will serve"
S: (v) do, make (create or design, often in a certain way) "Do my room in blue"; "I did this piece in wood to express my love for the forest"
S: (v) act, behave, do (behave in a certain manner; show a certain behavior; conduct or comport oneself) "You should act like an adult"; "Don't behave like a fool"; "What makes her do this way?"; "The dog acts ferocious, but he is really afraid of people"
S: (v) serve, do (spend time in prison or in a labor camp) "He did six years for embezzlement"
S: (v) do, manage (carry on or function) "We could do with a little more help around here"
S: (v) dress, arrange, set, do, coif, coiffe, coiffure (arrange attractively) "dress my hair for the wedding"
S: (v) travel, do (travel or traverse (a distance)) "This car does 150 miles per hour"

So sense 1 is actually "make, do" with the example "do research", "do nothing". The prompt gave "make love, not war" which is under "make" but also under the synset "make, do". So sense 1 is a general "engage in" with both "make" and "do". The example "make love, not war" is a bit confusing but okay.

Now, "do something about her". The phrase "do something" is not exactly "do nothing" or "do research". It's a general performative. In WordNet, "do" in "do something" is often sense 2: perform, execute, do. Let's see if there are any examples in WordNet of sense 2 with "something". Not directly, but "perform an action" is the gloss.

Sense 3 is "do, perform" with gloss "get (something) done". The difference between sense 2 and 3 is subtle. Sense 2 is about the execution of an action; sense 3 is about accomplishing a task. In "do something about her", the speaker wishes the stranger could take action (maybe to make her stop doing something, or to deal with her). It's about performing an action, not necessarily completing a job. So sense 2.

But let's consider sense 5: cause. "Do something about her" could mean cause a change in her situation. But the gloss says "give rise to; cause to happen or occur". The phrase "do something about" is not directly causal; it's more like "take action regarding". So sense 2.

Another possibility: sense 11: "carry on or function". Example: "We could do with a little more help". Not this.

Sense 9: behave. "Do something" could be "act". But the gloss is "behave in a certain manner; show a certain behavior". Example: "You should act like an adult". "Do something about her" is not about behaving.

Thus the answer is 2.

However, I want to double-check if there is any chance it's sense 3. Let's think of "I did something about it". That means I took action to resolve it. Is that "get something done"? Yes, in a way. But WordNet sense 3 is specifically "get (something) done". The example "I did my job" implies fulfilling a responsibility. "Do something about her" doesn't imply a responsibility; it's a wish for action. Also, the phrase "do something" as a noun phrase is very generic. In lexical sample tasks, "do" in "do something" is almost always sense 2.

I recall the Senseval or SemCor data. For example, in SemCor, the sentence "He wouldn't do anything of the sort" might be tagged as sense 2. Or "do something" is sense 2. Let me try to remember specific annotations. In the "do" lexical sample, there were sentences like "He did it" (sense 2). "I have to do my homework" (sense 3). "This will do" (sense 7). "How do you do?" (sense 4). "Do the dishes" (sense 2 or 3?). "Do the dishes" is often sense 2 (perform) or sense 3 (accomplish). Actually washing dishes is a task, so maybe sense 3. But "do something" is more like sense 2.

Let's examine the exact sentence: "wished the stranger could do something about her". The phrase "do something about" is an idiom. If we replace "do" with "perform", "perform something about her" sounds okay. If we replace with "get done", "get something done about her" also sounds okay but slightly different. "Get something done about her" implies arranging for something to be done, whereas "do something about her" implies personally taking action. Since the subject is "the stranger", it's the stranger taking action. So "perform an action" is the meaning.

Therefore, the correct sense is 2.

Wait, but the prompt says "Return only the number of the correct sense." So I should output just "2". No extra text.

But before finalizing, let's consider if sense 1 "engage in" could be correct. "Engage in something about her"? That doesn't fit as well. "Engage in" is usually used with activities like "do research", "do nothing". "Do something" is more general. But sense 1 is specifically the "make, do" synset which includes "make love, make an effort, do research, do nothing". It might be that "do something" falls under sense 1? Let's check WordNet: The synset for sense 1 is "make, do". The gloss: engage in. The examples: "make love, not war"; "make an effort"; "do research"; "do nothing". The usage note: This synset is used for the verb "make" in the sense of "make love" and for "do" in the sense of "do research". It's about engaging in an activity. "Do something" could be seen as engaging in some activity. However, WordNet has a separate sense 2 for "perform, execute, do". The difference: sense 1 is for activities that are nouns representing actions (do research, do nothing). Sense 2 is for performing a specific action, often with a concrete object or a deed. "Do something" is a pronoun standing for an action. It could be either. But in practice, "do nothing" is sense 1 because it's listed as an example. "Do something" is not listed. But "do" + indefinite pronoun "something" might pattern with "do nothing". However, "do nothing" is an idiom meaning "not engage in any activity". "Do something" is the opposite. Is it sense 1? Let's see.

In WordNet, sense 1 includes "do nothing". So "do something" might also be sense 1 by analogy. But is there any evidence? Let's search my memory of WordNet's morphosemantic links or examples. I don't recall "do something" being an example for sense 1. The examples are "do research", "do nothing". "Do nothing" is a specific collocation. "Do something" is more general and likely falls under sense 2, which is the most general performative sense.

Also, consider the hypernyms. Sense 1: make, create (engage in). Actually the hypernym of sense 1 is "create by mental act"? No. Let's check: The synset "make, do" (sense 1) has hypernym "act, move". Sense 2 "perform, execute, do" also has hypernym "act, move". So both are under "act". The difference is subtle. Sense 1 might be more about "make" (as in make love, make an effort) and "do" (do research). It's possible that "do something" is not in sense 1 because sense 1 is more about "make" and "do" as in "do research" (engage in a field of study). But "do something about her" is not engaging in an activity for its own sake; it's performing an action to affect a situation. So sense 2.

Let's also consider sense 3: "do, perform" (get something done). The hypernym is "complete, finish". Actually, no. Let's check: "get (something) done" implies accomplishment. The hypernym might be "accomplish, achieve". So if the sentence implies accomplishing a task, it's sense 3. But "do something about her" is vague; it's not necessarily about completing a task. It's just "take action". So sense 2.

Another angle: The phrase "do something about" is often used to mean "take action to solve a problem". This is similar to "act". Sense 9 is "behave in a certain manner; show a certain behavior; conduct or comport oneself". Example: "You should act like an adult". But "do something" is not "behave".

Sense 5: "cause". If you do something about a problem, you cause a change. But the direct object of "do" is "something", not the effect. The effect is "about her". So it's not sense 5.

Thus, sense 2 is the best fit.

I will answer with just the number: 2.

The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "come" is used in the sentence: "Coming home from work, he was startled to see a police car parked in front of the apartment building."

Let me analyze the sentence. The word "Coming" here is used as a present participle describing the action of moving toward home from work.

Looking at the definitions:

1. "move toward, travel toward something or somebody or approach something or somebody" - This seems to fit. "Coming home" means moving toward home.

2. "reach a destination; arrive by movement or progress" - This would be more about the arrival itself, but "coming" emphasizes the movement toward, not the arrival. The sentence says "coming home" which implies the process of returning, not necessarily having arrived yet (though the context suggests he arrived and saw the police car).

Wait, let me look more carefully. The sentence is: "Coming home from work, he was startled to see..."

This is a participial phrase. "Coming home" means while he was in the process of returning home from work.

Sense 1: "move toward, travel toward something or somebody or approach something or somebody" - examples: "He came singing down the road"

Sense 2: "reach a destination; arrive by movement or progress" - examples: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock"

Actually, looking at sense 2, the example uses "arrived" which suggests completion of the journey. But "come" in sense 2 is defined as "reach a destination."

However, in the sentence "Coming home from work," the word "coming" suggests the motion toward home, not necessarily having reached it yet. But actually, looking at the full context, he was startled to see the police car when he was coming home - this could mean during the journey or upon arrival.

But let's look at the example for sense 1: "He came singing down the road" - this is about movement toward.

Sense 2 example: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock" - wait, the example uses "arrived" but the definition is "reach a destination; arrive by movement or progress."

Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions:
- Sense 1 seems to be about the act of moving toward (approaching)
- Sense 2 seems to be about arriving/reaching the destination

In the sentence "Coming home from work," this is most similar to sense 1: moving toward home. The phrase "come home" generally means to return to one's home, which involves moving toward it.

But let me check if there's a better fit.

Sense 11: "cover a certain distance" - example: "She came a long way" - this doesn't fit.

Sense 9: "extend or reach" - example: "The water came up to my waist" - this is about reaching a level, not about a person moving.

Sense 1 is definitely about a person (or thing) moving toward something. "He came singing down the road" - this is about movement along a path toward a destination.

In "Coming home from work," the subject "he" is moving toward home. This matches sense 1: "move toward, travel toward something or somebody or approach something or somebody."

Wait, I should also consider sense 2. "Reach a destination; arrive by movement or progress."

The example for sense 2 is: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock" - interestingly, the example uses "arrived" not "came." But the definition says "reach a destination; arrive."

However, "coming" in the sentence is progressive aspect - it suggests the action is ongoing. "Coming home" means in the process of returning home.

Actually, looking at the sentence structure again: "Coming home from work, he was startled..." - this could mean:
1. While he was on his way home (during the journey)
2. When he arrived home

But typically, "coming home" in this context means returning from work to home.

Let me look at the WordNet senses or similar. These look like they might be from WordNet or a similar lexical database.

Sense 1: move toward, travel toward... (approach)
Sense 2: reach a destination (arrive)

In "Coming home," if we mean he was in the act of returning, sense 1 is better. If we mean he arrived, sense 2 might be relevant, but "coming" is not the same as "came" in terms of aspect.

Actually, looking at the example for sense 2: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock" - the gloss uses "arrive" and the example uses "arrived." This suggests sense 2 is about the completion of the journey (arrival).

Sense 1 example: "He came singing down the road" - this is about the movement itself.

"Coming home from work" describes the movement from work to home, which is traveling toward home. So sense 1 seems correct.

But wait, I need to be careful. In many dictionaries, "come" when used with a destination like "home" can be ambiguous between the process and the completion. However, the progressive "coming" emphasizes the ongoing nature - the movement toward.

Let me check if any other sense fits better.

Sense 7: "come forth" - example: "A scream came from the woman's mouth" - this is about emanating from a source, not a person moving to a place.

Sense 16: "be received" - example: "News came in..." - not relevant.

Sense 17: "come to one's mind" - not relevant.

Sense 19: "proceed or get along" - example: "How is she doing..." - not relevant.

Sense 20: "experience orgasm" - not relevant.

Sense 21: "have a certain priority" - not relevant.

So it's between sense 1 and sense 2.

Sense 1: move toward, approach
Sense 2: reach a destination, arrive

The key difference is that sense 1 is about the motion toward (approaching), while sense 2 is about the completion (arriving).

In the sentence "Coming home from work, he was startled...", the participial phrase describes the circumstances. He was in the process of returning home when he saw the police car. This could mean:
- While walking/driving home (during transit)
- Upon arriving home

But "coming home" generally implies the journey toward home. However, looking at the specific wording "Coming home from work," this is a very common phrase meaning "returning from work to home."

Actually, looking at the example for sense 1 again: "He came singing down the road" - this shows movement along a path.

And sense 2: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock" - this shows arrival.

The word "coming" in the sentence is a present participle. If the intended meaning was arrival (sense 2), it would likely use "Arriving home" or "When he came home..."

But "Coming home" as a participial phrase modifying the subject suggests the progressive action of moving toward home.

However, I want to check if there's any chance it's sense 2. The definition of sense 2 is "reach a destination; arrive by movement or progress." The word "coming" can be used to mean "arriving" in some contexts, like "I'm coming!" meaning "I'm arriving soon."

But in "Coming home from work," combined with the context of seeing a police car parked in front of the building, this suggests he was approaching the building or had just arrived.

Actually, looking at it again: if he saw the police car parked in front of the apartment building, he was likely approaching the building or had just arrived. The phrase "coming home" encompasses the return journey.

But let's look at the most precise fit. Sense 1 is "move toward, travel toward something or somebody or approach something or somebody."

When you "come home," you are traveling toward home. This fits sense 1 perfectly.

Sense 2 would be when you have reached home. But the progressive "coming" suggests the movement is ongoing.

Wait, I should reconsider. In some linguistic frameworks, "come" in "come home" when used as a motion verb toward the deictic center (home) could be sense 1.

Let me look at the example for sense 2 once more: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock." This example actually uses "arrived" not "came." But the definition mentions "arrive by movement or progress."

Actually, looking at WordNet (which this appears to be based on):
Sense 1: come, come up - move toward, travel toward...
Sense 2: arrive, get, come - reach a destination...

In WordNet, "come" sense 2 is definitely about arriving.

But in the sentence, "Coming" is the present participle of "come."

If the sentence were "He came home," it could potentially be sense 2 (arrived home). But with the progressive "Coming," it emphasizes the process of moving toward.

However, looking at the specific context: "Coming home from work, he was startled to see..." - this is a temporal clause equivalent to "When he came home from work..."

In English, "When he came home" can mean either:
1. When he was traveling home (during the journey)
2. When he arrived home

But typically, "When he came home" means "When he arrived home" or "After he arrived home."

Actually, that's an important point. "Come home" often implies the arrival or the return. "I'm coming home" means I am on my way and will arrive soon. But "When coming home" in a narrative often sets the scene of the return.

Let me think about this differently. The sentence says he was startled to see a police car parked in front of the apartment building. You typically see something parked in front of a building when you approach it or when you arrive at it.

If he was just traveling toward it but not there yet, he might not see the front of the building clearly. But he could be approaching it.

However, the key is which sense definition best matches.

Sense 1: move toward, travel toward, approach
Sense 2: reach a destination, arrive

Given that "coming" is progressive and the example for sense 1 involves movement ("came singing down the road"), and given that "coming from work" emphasizes the origin and movement toward home, I think sense 1 is the correct answer.

But I want to double-check. Could it be sense 11? "cover a certain distance" - example: "She came a long way." No, that's not it.

Could it be sense 9? "extend or reach" - no, that's for things like water levels.

Sense 1 is definitely the most general sense of physical movement toward a destination.

Actually, looking at the sentence once more: "Coming home from work" - this is a participial phrase where "coming" takes "home" as a directional complement (or particle) and "from work" as the origin.

The core meaning is motion toward a place.

Therefore: Sense 1.

But wait, I need to be absolutely sure. Let me look at whether "come home" is specifically sense 2 in this classification.

The example for sense 2 is: "She arrived home at 7 o'clock."

Notice that the example uses "arrived" which is a synonym of "came" in the arrival sense. But the example doesn't use "came."

The example for sense 1 uses "came": "He came singing down the road."

This suggests that in this particular classification system:
- Sense 1 is the general motion verb (come/go toward)
- Sense 2 is specifically about arriving/reaching

But "come" in English can mean both. However, "coming" in progressive aspect is more likely to be sense 1 (the motion) rather than sense 2 (the arrival), because arrival is a punctual event while motion is durative.

Actually, that's a linguistic point: "arrive" is an achievement verb (punctual), while "come" in sense 1 is an activity verb (durative). The progressive "coming" fits the durative sense (moving toward) better than the punctual sense (arriving).

Therefore, Sense 1 is the answer.

One more check: Is there any other sense that could work?

Sense 7: "come forth" - "A scream came from..." - this is about emission, not a person moving.

Sense 16: "News came in..." - about information arriving.

No, Sense 1 is clearly the best fit.

The answer is 1.

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

 Sentence: "Coming <t>home</t> from work, he was startled to see a police car parked in front of the apartment building."

 Let me analyze the context:
 - "Coming home from work" - this implies returning to one's residence/dwelling
 - "apartment building" - this confirms it's about a physical place where someone lives

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. "where you live at a particular time" - examples: "deliver the package to my home"
    - This fits. "Coming home" means returning to where you live.

 2. "housing that someone is living in" - examples: "he built a modest dwelling near the pond"
    - This refers to the physical structure itself. While related, "coming home" is more about the destination/location where one lives, not specifically emphasizing the structure. But this is close.

 3. "the country or state or city where you live" - examples mention tariffs and "at home" meaning domestically
    - Doesn't fit. The context is about returning from work to an apartment building, not about a country/city.

 4. "(baseball) base..."
    - Clearly not baseball context.

 5. "the place where you are stationed and from which missions start and end"
    - Military context, doesn't fit.

 6. "place where something began and flourished" - examples: "home of basketball"
    - Doesn't fit. Not talking about origin of something.

 7. "an environment offering affection and security" - examples: "home is where the heart is"
    - While metaphorically possible, the specific context mentions "apartment building" which suggests the physical location where one lives.

 8. "a social unit living together" - examples: "he moved his family to Virginia"
    - This refers to the family/household, not the place. "Coming home" refers to the place, not the social unit.

 9. "an institution where people are cared for" - examples: "a home for the elderly"
    - Doesn't fit. Not an institution.

 Now between 1 and 2:
 - Sense 1: "where you live at a particular time" - this is about the location/residence
 - Sense 2: "housing that someone is living in" - this is about the structure/dwelling

 In the sentence "Coming home from work", "home" refers to the place where the person lives (their residence). The example for sense 1 "deliver the package to my home" is very similar - it's about the location where someone lives.

 Sense 2's example "he built a modest dwelling" emphasizes the physical structure as housing.

 "Coming home" is most commonly defined as returning to one's place of residence. This aligns best with sense 1.

 However, I should double-check if there's any ambiguity. The phrase "coming home" implies movement toward one's residence. Sense 1's definition "where you live at a particular time" captures this well.

 Actually, looking at WordNet or similar lexical databases (which this seems to be based on):
 - Sense 1 is usually the general "home" as a location where one lives
 - Sense 2 is more specific to the physical housing structure

 "Coming home" = returning to the place where one lives → Sense 1.

 Wait, let me reconsider sense 8. Could "home" mean the family/social unit? "Coming home from work" - could this mean coming back to the family? While metaphorically possible, the mention of "apartment building" suggests it's the physical location being referred to.

 Also, sense 7: "environment offering affection and security" - "home is where the heart is". This is more abstract.

 The most straightforward reading is Sense 1.

 But let me look at the examples again carefully:
 - Sense 1: "deliver the package to my home" - this is about the location/address
 - Sense 2: "he built a modest dwelling near the pond" - this is about the building itself

 "Coming home" is about going to the place where you live. This is Sense 1.

 Actually, looking at standard dictionary definitions for this type of task (likely based on WordNet):
 1. home, place where you live - "where you live at a particular time"
 2. dwelling, home, domicile - "housing that someone is living in"

 The distinction is subtle. Sense 1 is broader (can include temporary residence, the concept of home), while Sense 2 is specifically the physical dwelling.

 In "Coming home from work", it refers to the person's residence (where they live). This is Sense 1.

 The answer should be 1.

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

Senses:

7. definition=the total output of a writer or artist (or a substantial part of it) | examples=he studied the entire Wagnerian oeuvre

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

 Sentence: "Coming home from <t>work</t>, he was startled to see a police car parked in front of the apartment building."

 The word "work" here is used in the context of "coming home from work". This typically refers to the place where one works or the job/occupation itself.

 Let me look at the senses:

 1. activity directed toward making or doing something - This is about the activity itself, not the place or the job one returns from.
 2. a product produced or accomplished - This refers to a creation or result, like artwork or a book.
 3. the occupation for which you are paid - This refers to the job or employment.
 4. applying the mind to learning - This is about studying or mental effort.
 5. (physics) manifestation of energy - Scientific definition.
 6. a place where work is done - This refers to the workplace or office.
 7. the total output of a writer or artist - This refers to collected works or oeuvre.

 Now, "coming home from work" - does "work" here mean:
 - The occupation (sense 3)?
 - The place (sense 6)?

 In common usage, "coming home from work" can mean both:
 - Coming home from one's job/employment (sense 3)
 - Coming home from the workplace (sense 6)

 However, looking at the example for sense 6: "he arrived at work early today" - this clearly refers to the place.

 Looking at the example for sense 3: "he is looking for employment" - this refers to the occupation.

 In the sentence "Coming home from work", "work" is being used as a location/place you're coming from. You come from a place. While it can metaphorically refer to the occupation, grammatically it's functioning as a place.

 But wait, let me reconsider. In English, "work" can be used as an uncountable noun referring to:
 1. The activity: "I have work to do"
 2. The place: "I am at work", "I am going to work", "coming from work"
 3. The job: "I found work"

 In "coming home from work", the preposition "from" indicates origin/location. You're coming from the place where you work.

 However, sense 3 (the occupation) could also fit because you're coming from your employment/job.

 But looking at the specific definitions:
 - Sense 3: "the occupation for which you are paid" - examples: "he is looking for employment"
 - Sense 6: "a place where work is done" - examples: "he arrived at work early today"

 The example for sense 6 uses "at work" which is locational. "Coming from work" is also locational.

 Actually, looking carefully at standard dictionary definitions:
 - "Work" as a place: "I go to work every day"
 - "Work" as employment/occupation: "He found work in the city"

 In "coming home from work", it's most commonly understood as coming from the workplace (the location). However, it could also mean coming from the state of being employed/working.

 But given the example for sense 6 is "he arrived at work early today", which is clearly about the place, and "coming home from work" parallels "arriving at work" (both are about location/place), sense 6 seems most appropriate.

 Wait, let me double-check. In many lexical databases like WordNet:
 - Sense 3 might be "employment, work" - the occupation
 - Sense 6 might be "workplace, work" - the location

 Actually, looking at the provided definitions again:
 3. definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=she checked several points needing further work
 Wait, the example for sense 3 seems wrong. "she checked several points needing further work" - that sounds like sense 1 (activity), not sense 3 (occupation).

 Let me re-read:
 1. definition=activity directed toward making or doing something | examples=she checked several points needing further work
 3. definition=the occupation for which you are paid | examples=he is looking for employment

 Actually, looking at the formatting, it seems like:
 Sense 1: activity... | examples=she checked several points needing further work
 Sense 2: a product... | examples=it is not regarded as one of his more memorable works
 Sense 3: the occupation... | examples=he is looking for employment
 Sense 4: applying the mind... | examples=mastering a second language requires a lot of work
 Sense 5: (physics)... | examples=work equals force times distance
 Sense 6: a place where work is done | examples=he arrived at work early today
 Sense 7: the total output... | examples=he studied the entire Wagnerian oeuvre

 So for sense 3, the example is "he is looking for employment" which clearly indicates the job/occupation meaning.

 For sense 6, the example is "he arrived at work early today" which clearly indicates the place.

 Now, "Coming home from work" - are you coming from the occupation or from the place?

 You come from a place. The phrase means coming from the location where one works. This matches sense 6.

 However, some might argue it means coming from the activity of working (sense 1), but "from" with "work" usually indicates the place when paired with motion verbs like "coming", "going", "returning".

 Actually, looking at standard usage:
 - "I'm going to work" = going to the workplace (sense 6)
 - "I'm coming from work" = coming from the workplace (sense 6)
 - "I need to find work" = find employment (sense 3)

 Therefore, the answer should be 6.

 But let me reconsider if it could be sense 3. If someone says "I just got back from work", do they mean "from my job" or "from my workplace"? It's ambiguous, but in the context of these specific definitions, sense 6 (a place where work is done) fits better because:
 1. The example "he arrived at work early today" shows locational usage
 2. "Coming home from..." implies leaving a location and returning home

 Also, if it were sense 3 (occupation), the sentence would be emphasizing that he was employed, but the sentence is emphasizing the location he was coming from when he saw the police car.

 Therefore, the answer is 6.

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

 Sentence: "Coming home from work, he was startled to <t>see</t> a police car parked in front of the apartment building."

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 - The subject "he" perceived a police car with his eyes
 - It was a visual perception that startled him
 - He saw something physically present (a police car)

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. definition=perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight | examples=You have to be a good observer to see all the details
 - This fits. He perceived the police car by sight.

 2. definition=perceive (an idea or situation) mentally | examples=Now I see!
 - This is about understanding, not physical sight. Doesn't fit.

 3. definition=perceive or be contemporaneous with | examples=We found Republicans winning the offices
 - This seems like witnessing an event, but the example is a bit different. Let me think. "We found Republicans winning" - this is about witnessing something happening. But in the sentence, he's just seeing a parked car, not necessarily witnessing an event unfold.

 4. definition=imagine; conceive of; see in one's mind | examples=I can't see him on horseback!
 - This is about imagination. Doesn't fit.

 5. definition=deem to be | examples=She views this quite differently from me
 - This is about opinion/judgment. Doesn't fit.

 6. definition=get to know or become aware of, usually accidentally | examples=I learned that she has two grown-up children
 - This is about learning information. While he became aware of the car, the primary meaning is visual perception, not learning a fact.

 7. definition=see or watch | examples=view a show on television
 - This is about watching something, often intentionally. He wasn't watching the police car like a show; he just saw it.

 8. definition=come together | examples=I'll probably see you at the meeting
 - This is about meeting someone. Doesn't fit.

 9. definition=find out, learn, or determine with certainty, usually by making an inquiry or other effort | examples=I want to see whether she speaks French
 - This is about investigating. Doesn't fit.

 10. definition=be careful or certain to do something; make certain of something | examples=He verified that the valves were closed
 - This is about ensuring. Doesn't fit.

 11. definition=go to see for professional or business reasons | examples=You should see a lawyer
 - This is about consulting someone. Doesn't fit.

 12. definition=go to see for a social visit | examples=I went to see my friend Mary the other day
 - This is about visiting. Doesn't fit.

 13. definition=go to see a place, as for entertainment | examples=We went to see the Eiffel Tower in the morning
 - This is about tourism/visiting. Doesn't fit.

 14. definition=take charge of or deal with | examples=Could you see about lunch?
 - This is about handling something. Doesn't fit.

 15. definition=receive as a specified guest | examples=the doctor will see you now
 - This is about receiving someone. Doesn't fit.

 16. definition=date regularly; have a steady relationship with | examples=Did you know that she is seeing an older man?
 - This is about romantic relationships. Doesn't fit.

 17. definition=see and understand, have a good eye | examples=The artist must first learn to see
 - This is about artistic perception or understanding. Doesn't fit.

 18. definition=deliberate or decide | examples=See whether you can come tomorrow
 - This is about figuring out. Doesn't fit.

 19. definition=observe as if with an eye | examples=The camera saw the burglary and recorded it
 - This is about mechanical/figurative observation. Doesn't fit for human sight.

 20. definition=observe, check out, and look over carefully or inspect | examples=The customs agent examined the baggage
 - This is about careful examination. He was startled, so it was likely a sudden perception, not a careful inspection.

 21. definition=go or live through | examples=We had many trials to go through
 - This is about experiencing. Doesn't fit.

 22. definition=accompany or escort | examples=I'll see you to the door
 - This is about escorting. Doesn't fit.

 23. definition=match or meet | examples=I saw the bet of one of my fellow players
 - This is about gambling/matching bets. Doesn't fit.

 24. definition=make sense of; assign a meaning to | examples=What message do you see in this letter?
 - This is about interpretation. Doesn't fit.

 The best fit is sense 1: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight"

 The sentence describes someone visually perceiving a police car. This is the basic physical sense of seeing with one's eyes.

 Sense 7 could be close, but "see or watch" implies a more active or sustained looking (like viewing a show). Sense 1 is about the basic ability to perceive by sight or the act of perceiving visually, which fits better with being "startled to see" - it's the sudden visual perception.

 Sense 20 involves careful inspection, which doesn't fit with being startled.

 Sense 3 "perceive or be contemporaneous with" - the example "We found Republicans winning the offices" suggests witnessing an event in progress. While seeing a police car could be witnessing, sense 1 is more fundamental and accurate for simply seeing an object.

 I think the answer is 1.

 Let's look at the senses:

 2. definition=the body of citizens of a state or country | examples=the Spanish people
 3. definition=members of a family line | examples=his people have been farmers for generations
 4. definition=the common people generally | examples=separate the warriors from the mass

 In the sentence "Inside the lobby, people were standing around, talking excitedly," the word "people" refers to a group of human beings in general - men, women, or children who are in the lobby. It's not referring to citizens of a country (sense 2), not referring to family members (sense 3), and not referring to the common people as a social class (sense 4).

 This matches sense 1: "any group of human beings (men or women or children) collectively."

 So the answer is 1.

3. definition=occupy a place or location, also metaphorically | examples=We stand on common ground
4. definition=hold one's ground; maintain a position; be steadfast or upright | examples=I am standing my ground and won't give in!

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "stand" is used in the sentence: "Inside the lobby, people were <t>standing</t> around, talking excitedly."

Let me look at the sentence: "people were standing around" - this means people were upright on their feet, not sitting or lying down.

Now let me check the senses:

1. definition=be standing; be upright | examples=We had to stand for the entire performance!
   - This matches "standing around" - people are upright on their feet.

2. definition=be in some specified state or condition | examples=I stand corrected
   - "Stand corrected" is an idiom meaning to admit error. Not matching.

3. definition=occupy a place or location, also metaphorically | examples=We stand on common ground
   - Metaphorical or specific location sense. Not the physical act of standing upright.

4. definition=hold one's ground; maintain a position; be steadfast or upright | examples=I am standing my ground and won't give in!
   - This is about maintaining a position/opinion, not physically standing.

5. definition=put up with something or somebody unpleasant | examples=I cannot bear his constant criticism
   - This is "stand" as in "tolerate" or "bear". Not matching.

6. definition=have or maintain a position or stand on an issue | examples=Where do you stand on the War?
   - This is about opinions/positions on issues. Not matching.

7. definition=remain inactive or immobile | examples=standing water
   - This is about water that is still/not flowing. While "standing around" might involve being inactive, the primary meaning here is the physical posture.

8. definition=be in effect; be or remain in force | examples=The law stands!
   - Legal sense. Not matching.

9. definition=be tall; have a height of; copula | examples=She stands 6 feet tall
   - Measurement sense. Not matching.

10. definition=put into an upright position | examples=Can you stand the bookshelf up?
    - Transitive sense - causing something to stand. The sentence uses intransitive "were standing".

11. definition=withstand the force of something | examples=The trees resisted her
    - This looks like it might be "stand" as in "withstand" but the example says "resisted her" which is odd. Anyway, this is about enduring force. Not matching.

12. definition=be available for stud services | examples=male domestic animals such as stallions serve selected females
    - Specific to animal breeding. Not matching.

So the correct sense is clearly #1: "be standing; be upright".

The sentence "people were standing around" means they were in an upright position on their feet.

The answer is 1.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "talk" is used in the sentence: "Inside the lobby, people were standing around, talking excitedly."

Let me analyze the sentence:
- "Inside the lobby, people were standing around, talking excitedly."
- The context is people in a lobby, standing around, and engaging in conversation with each other.
- The word "excitedly" suggests they are having a conversation or discussion.

Now let's look at the senses:

1. "exchange thoughts; talk with" | examples="We often talk business"
   - This involves having a conversation with someone, exchanging ideas or thoughts.
   - In the sentence, people are standing around talking to each other. This fits "exchange thoughts" or having a conversation.

2. "express in speech" | examples="She talks a lot of nonsense"
   - This is about the act of speaking or uttering words.
   - While technically they are expressing themselves in speech, the context suggests interaction between people ("people were standing around" implies a social gathering where they're conversing).

3. "use language" | examples="the baby talks already"
   - This refers to the ability to speak or use language.
   - Doesn't fit here - it's not about the capability of using language.

4. "reveal information" | examples="If you don't oblige me, I'll talk!"
   - This is about disclosing or revealing information, often under pressure.
   - Doesn't fit the context of people chatting excitedly in a lobby.

5. "divulge confidential information or secrets" | examples="Be careful--his secretary talks"
   - Similar to 4, but specifically about secrets or confidential info.
   - Doesn't fit.

6. "deliver a lecture or talk" | examples="She will talk at Rutgers next week"
   - This is about giving a formal speech or presentation.
   - Doesn't fit - people standing around in a lobby talking excitedly doesn't sound like a formal lecture.

Sense 1 seems the best fit: "exchange thoughts; talk with" - this describes people having a conversation with each other. The phrase "standing around" suggests a casual gathering where people are conversing socially.

Sense 2 could potentially fit (express in speech), but sense 1 is more specific about the interactive nature of the conversation implied by "people were standing around" (plural, suggesting interaction between them).

Looking at the example for sense 1: "We often talk business" - this implies a conversation or discussion about business.
Looking at the example for sense 2: "She talks a lot of nonsense" - this focuses on the content of what is being said by one person.

In the target sentence, "people were standing around, talking excitedly" suggests interpersonal communication, making sense 1 the best choice.

Wait, let me reconsider. Is it possible that sense 2 is correct? "Express in speech" is quite general. But sense 1 "exchange thoughts; talk with" captures the social/interactive aspect better.

Actually, looking carefully at the definitions:
1. exchange thoughts; talk with - implies a mutual conversation
2. express in speech - implies uttering words

In the sentence "people were standing around, talking excitedly", this most naturally means they were conversing with each other. The context suggests social interaction.

Therefore, the answer should be 1.

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

Sentence: His <t>spine</t> crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened.

Senses:

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

Sentence: "His <t>spine</t> crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened."

The phrase "spine crawled" or "spine tingled" is an idiom referring to a sensation along one's back, specifically the spinal column. This is a physical reaction to fear, dread, or foreboding.

Let me look at the senses:
1. definition=the series of vertebrae forming the axis of the skeleton and protecting the spinal cord | examples=the fall broke his back
2. definition=any sharply pointed projection
3. definition=a small sharp-pointed tip resembling a spike on a stem or leaf
4. definition=the part of a book's cover that encloses the inner side of the book's pages and that faces outward when the book is shelved | examples=the title and author were printed on the spine of the book
5. definition=a sharp rigid animal process or appendage; as a porcupine quill or a ridge on a bone or a ray of a fish fin

The sentence uses "spine" in the context of a physical sensation - "his spine crawled" - which refers to the spinal column (the backbone). This matches sense 1, which refers to the series of vertebrae.

Sense 2 is about pointed projections.
Sense 3 is about plant thorns/spikes.
Sense 4 is about books.
Sense 5 is about animal quills or bone ridges.

The idiom "make one's spine crawl" or "one's spine crawls" refers to the sensation along the spinal column/backbone, so it's sense 1.

The answer should be 1.

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

Sentence: His spine <t>crawled</t> with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened.

Senses:
1. definition=move slowly; in the case of people or animals with the body near the ground | examples=The crocodile was crawling along the riverbed
2. definition=feel as if crawling with insects | examples=My skin crawled--I was terrified
3. definition=be full of | examples=The old cheese was crawling with maggots
4. definition=show submission or fear
5. definition=swim by doing the crawl | examples=European children learn the breast stroke; they often don't know how to crawl

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

 Sentence: "His spine <t>crawled</t> with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened."

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 - "His spine crawled" - this is describing a physical sensation along the spine
 - "with a foreboding premonition" - this indicates a feeling of fear or dread
 - The context suggests a creepy, uncomfortable sensation

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. "move slowly; in the case of people or animals with the body near the ground" - This is literal crawling movement. The spine isn't moving slowly near the ground here. So not sense 1.

 2. "feel as if crawling with insects" - The example is "My skin crawled--I was terrified". This matches "His spine crawled" with a feeling of foreboding/premonition. The phrase "skin crawled" or "spine crawled" is an idiom meaning to feel a creepy sensation like insects crawling on the skin/spine, usually from fear or disgust.

 3. "be full of" - The example is "The old cheese was crawling with maggots". This is about being literally covered with something. While "crawling with" can mean full of, in this sentence it's "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition" - this is metaphorical, not literal. But sense 3 is about being full of something (like maggots). However, the structure here is different - it's not saying the spine is full of premonition in the sense of being covered with insects. It's describing the sensation of crawling.

 4. "show submission or fear" - This would be like "crawling to someone" or groveling. Doesn't fit.

 5. "swim by doing the crawl" - Obviously not relevant here.

 Between sense 2 and 3:
 - Sense 2: "feel as if crawling with insects" - This describes the sensation itself. "My skin crawled" means I feel like insects are crawling on my skin.
 - Sense 3: "be full of" - This describes something being covered with crawling things.

 In the sentence "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition", this is using the idiom where one's skin/spine "crawls" meaning one feels a tingling or creeping sensation, usually from fear or horror. This matches sense 2: "feel as if crawling with insects".

 Actually, looking closely at sense 2: "feel as if crawling with insects" - the subject is the person feeling it. "My skin crawled" means "I feel as if my skin is crawling with insects."

 Sense 3 is "be full of" - "The cheese was crawling with maggots" means the cheese is full of maggots.

 In the given sentence: "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition" - this is slightly different from "My skin crawled". Here, the spine is the subject, and it's crawling with a premonition. This is a metaphorical extension of the "skin crawling" sensation.

 But looking at the definitions:
 - Sense 2 is specifically about the feeling/sensation (feel as if crawling with insects)
 - Sense 3 is about being full of something (be full of)

 The example for sense 2 is "My skin crawled--I was terrified"
 The example for sense 3 is "The old cheese was crawling with maggots"

 In the sentence "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition", it's describing the physical sensation of fear (the spine crawling), similar to "my skin crawled". The phrase "crawled with a foreboding premonition" is describing what caused the crawling sensation, or perhaps using "crawl with" to mean experiencing that sensation.

 Actually, looking at it again: "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition" - this could be interpreted as his spine experiencing the premonition in the form of a crawling sensation.

 But sense 2 is the best fit because:
 1. It involves the sensation of crawling (like insects)
 2. It's associated with fear/terror (the example mentions "I was terrified", and the sentence mentions "foreboding premonition")
 3. "Skin crawling" or "spine crawling" is a standard idiom for this sensation

 Sense 3 would require the spine to be literally full of something crawling, or metaphorically full of something (like "crawling with activity"), but here it's specifically the sensation described in sense 2.

 Therefore, the answer is 2.

Sentence: "His spine crawled with a foreboding <t>premonition</t> as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened."

Senses:
1. definition=a feeling of evil to come | examples=a steadily escalating sense of foreboding
2. definition=an early warning about a future event

Let me analyze the sentence. The context is "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition" - this describes a physical sensation (spine crawling) associated with a feeling of foreboding/dread. It's an internal feeling that something bad is about to happen or has happened.

Sense 1: "a feeling of evil to come" - this matches the context. The example even uses "foreboding": "a steadily escalating sense of foreboding". The sentence uses "foreboding premonition" which aligns with sense 1.

Sense 2: "an early warning about a future event" - this suggests something more like a sign or signal that warns someone, rather than an internal feeling. The sentence describes an internal sensation ("His spine crawled"), not an external warning.

Therefore, the correct sense is 1.

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

Sentence: His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he <t>asked</t> one of his fellow tenants what had happened.

Senses:
1. definition=inquire about | examples=I asked about their special today
2. definition=make a request or demand for something to somebody | examples=She asked him for a loan
3. definition=direct or put; seek an answer to | examples=ask a question
4. definition=consider obligatory; request and expect | examples=We require our secretary to be on time
5. definition=address a question to and expect an answer from | examples=Ask your teacher about trigonometry

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

Sentence: "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he <t>asked</t> one of his fellow tenants what had happened."

Let me analyze the sentence:
- Subject: he
- Object: one of his fellow tenants
- Content: what had happened
- Structure: ask [someone] [something]

This means he is directing a question to someone and expecting an answer.

Now let's look at the senses:
1. inquire about - usually "ask about something", e.g., "I asked about their special today"
2. make a request or demand for something to somebody - usually "ask someone for something"
3. direct or put; seek an answer to - usually "ask a question" (the object is the question itself)
4. consider obligatory; request and expect - similar to "require", takes person + to-infinitive
5. address a question to and expect an answer from - takes a person as object, e.g., "Ask your teacher about trigonometry"
6. require as useful, just, or proper - impersonal, "it takes/asks nerve" (rare)
7. require or ask for as a price or condition - asking for money/price

In the sentence: "he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened"
- The structure is: ask [person] [wh-question]
- This matches sense 5: "address a question to and expect an answer from"
- Example given: "Ask your teacher about trigonometry" - similar structure with person as indirect object and topic/question.

Sense 1 would be "asked about what had happened" but here it's "asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened" - the fellow tenant is the person being questioned.

Sense 3 is "ask a question" where the direct object is the question itself, not the person.

Sense 5 specifically involves addressing a question to someone.

So the answer should be 5.

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

Sentence: His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his <t>fellow</t> tenants what had happened.

Senses:
1. definition=a boy or man | examples=that chap is your host
2. definition=a friend who is frequently in the company of another | examples=drinking companions
3. definition=a person who is member of one's class or profession | examples=the surgeon consulted his colleagues
4. definition=one of a pair | examples=he lost the mate to his shoe
5. definition=a member of a learned society | examples=he was elected a fellow of the American Physiological Association
6. definition=an informal form of address for a man | examples=Say, fellow, what are you doing?

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

 Sentence: "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his <t>fellow</t> tenants what had happened."

 The word "fellow" here modifies "tenants". The phrase is "fellow tenants".

 Let's look at the definitions:

 1. definition=a boy or man | examples=that chap is your host
    - This refers to a fellow as a person, but "fellow tenants" doesn't mean "boy or man tenants"

 2. definition=a friend who is frequently in the company of another | examples=drinking companions
    - "Fellow tenants" doesn't necessarily imply they are friends or companions, just that they share the same status/condition

 3. definition=a person who is member of one's class or profession | examples=the surgeon consulted his colleagues
    - This seems close. "Fellow tenants" means other tenants who share the same status/class (being tenants). They are members of the same group/class (tenants).

 4. definition=one of a pair | examples=he lost the mate to his shoe
    - Not relevant here. Not talking about pairs.

 5. definition=a member of a learned society | examples=he was elected a fellow of the American Physiological Association
    - This is a specific academic title, not applicable here.

 6. definition=an informal form of address for a man | examples=Say, fellow, what are you doing?
    - This is used as a direct address, not as a modifier before "tenants".

 7. definition=a man who is the lover of a girl or young woman | examples=if I'd known he was her boyfriend I wouldn't have asked
    - Not relevant.

 So definition 3 seems most appropriate: "a person who is member of one's class or profession" - in this case, fellow tenants are people who share the same status/condition of being tenants.

 Wait, let me double-check the exact wording of definition 3: "a person who is member of one's class or profession"

 "Fellow tenants" would mean other people who are also tenants - they belong to the same class/group (tenants).

 Actually, looking standard dictionary definitions, "fellow" as an adjective (or noun adjunct) often means "sharing a particular activity, quality, or condition with someone" or "being in the same situation".

 But looking at the specific definitions provided:
 - Sense 3: "a person who is member of one's class or profession" with examples about colleagues.

 "Fellow tenants" fits this pattern - they are members of the same class (tenants). Although "tenancy" isn't exactly a profession, it is a class/status.

 Let me check if there's any other sense that might fit better.

 Sense 1: Could "fellow" here mean "man"? "One of his fellow tenants" could theoretically mean "one of his male tenants" but that's unlikely. Usually "fellow" as a noun meaning "man" doesn't work this way syntactically. When "fellow" means "man" (sense 1), it's typically used as "that fellow", "a fellow", etc., not as "fellow tenants" where it acts like an adjective meaning "male".

 Actually, looking at the syntax: "his fellow tenants" - here "fellow" is functioning as an adjective or as part of a compound noun phrase meaning "co-tenants" or "other tenants who share the status".

 Sense 3 mentions "class or profession". Tenants could be considered a class (social class) or category.

 Is there a sense that's closer to "sharing the same condition/circumstance"?

 Wait, looking at typical dictionary entries for "fellow":
 - Often "fellow" means "a person in the same position/category/condition"

 In the list provided:
 - Sense 3 is the closest: "a person who is member of one's class or profession"

 But let me reconsider if this could be Sense 1. If "fellow" means "a boy or man", then "his fellow tenants" would mean "his male tenants". But that doesn't make sense in context because "tenants" is plural and includes potentially both sexes, and there's no indication he's asking only male tenants. Also, the syntax suggests "fellow" is modifying "tenants" to indicate shared status, not gender.

 Sense 2 is about friends/companions. "Fellow tenants" don't have to be friends.

 So Sense 3 is the correct answer.

 Actually, let me verify by looking at the word "fellow" in "fellow student", "fellow citizen", etc. These refer to people who share the same status/class/condition.

 In WordNet or similar databases, sense 3 often corresponds to "colleague, confrere, fellow" - a person who is member of one's class or profession.

 Yes, "fellow tenant" would be someone who shares the class/profession of being a tenant.

 So the answer is 3.

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

Sentence: His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow <t>tenants</t> what had happened.

Senses:
1. definition=someone who pays rent to use land or a building or a car that is owned by someone else | examples=the landlord can evict a tenant who doesn't pay the rent
2. definition=a holder of buildings or lands by any kind of title (as ownership or lease)
3. definition=any occupant who dwells in a place

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

Sentence: "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow <t>tenants</t> what had happened."

Context clues:
- "fellow tenants" suggests people who share the same living situation
- The context implies a residential building or apartment complex where multiple people live
- The word "fellow" indicates they are co-occupants or people in the same situation

Now let's look at the senses:

1. "someone who pays rent to use land or a building or a car that is owned by someone else" - This focuses on the financial/legal relationship of paying rent.

2. "a holder of buildings or lands by any kind of title (as ownership or lease)" - This is broader, including owners or leaseholders.

3. "any occupant who dwells in a place" - This is the broadest definition, simply meaning someone who lives/dwells somewhere.

In the sentence, "fellow tenants" in a context that seems to be about living in a building (likely an apartment building given the social interaction implied), the most common usage would be sense 1 or 3.

However, looking carefully:
- Sense 1 specifically mentions paying rent.
- Sense 3 is broader - any occupant who dwells there.

In modern English, when we refer to "fellow tenants" in an apartment building context, we typically mean sense 1 - people who rent their apartments. But sense 3 could also work.

Wait, let me reconsider. The sentence doesn't explicitly mention rent or ownership. It just mentions "fellow tenants" in what appears to be a residential building context.

But looking at the examples:
- Sense 1 example: "the landlord can evict a tenant who doesn't pay the rent" - This clearly indicates the rent-paying aspect.
- Sense 2 seems to be a legal/technical definition about holding title.
- Sense 3: "any occupant who dwells in a place" - very broad.

In the sentence "one of his fellow tenants", this is most likely referring to people who rent apartments in the same building. This would be sense 1.

However, I need to be careful. The word "tenant" can be used broadly. But sense 1 is the most common definition - someone who pays rent.

Actually, looking at WordNet or similar lexical databases (which this format resembles):
- Sense 1 is usually the most common: a person who holds land or property under a lease
- Sense 2 might be archaic or legal
- Sense 3 is very broad

The phrase "fellow tenants" strongly suggests they share the same landlord or building, and in common parlance, this refers to renters. So sense 1.

But let me double-check. Could it be sense 3? If the person is an owner, they wouldn't typically be called a tenant. Tenants specifically implies renting or leasing, not owning.

Actually, looking at sense 2: "a holder of buildings or lands by any kind of title (as ownership or lease)" - this would include owners, which is unusual because we don't typically call owners "tenants."

Sense 1 specifically mentions paying rent.
Sense 3 mentions any occupant.

In the context of "fellow tenants" asking what happened (implying a shared living situation like an apartment building), the standard meaning is people who rent their units. That's sense 1.

I think the answer is 1.

Wait, I should consider if there's any ambiguity. The sentence doesn't explicitly mention a landlord or rent, but "tenant" in contemporary English almost always implies a renter (sense 1) unless specified otherwise (like in legal contexts "tenant in fee simple" which relates to sense 2).

Given the narrative context (spine crawling with foreboding, asking what happened), this is clearly a story set in a residential building, and "fellow tenants" means other people renting in the same building.

Therefore: 1

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

 Sentence: "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had <t>happened</t>."

 Let me analyze the sentence:
 - The speaker is asking what had occurred or taken place
 - "What had happened" refers to an event that occurred in the past
 - This is asking about something that came to pass or occurred

 Now let's look at the senses:

 1. definition=come to pass | examples=What is happening?
    - This seems to be the general sense of something occurring or taking place.
    - "What had happened" fits here - asking what event occurred.

 2. definition=happen, occur, or be the case in the course of events or by chance; ; (Santayana) | examples=It happens that today is my birthday
    - This seems to be about something occurring by chance or being the case.
    - The example "It happens that..." suggests a specific construction where "happen" means something like "turns out" or "is the case by chance."

 3. definition=chance to be or do something, without intention or causation | examples=I happen to have just what you need!
    - This is the "happen to" construction indicating chance or coincidence.
    - The sentence doesn't have "happen to" in this sense.

 4. definition=come into being; become reality | examples=Her dream really materialized
    - This seems to be about dreams or plans becoming real.
    - Not fitting for "what had happened" in this context.

 5. definition=come upon, as if by accident; meet with | examples=We find this idea in Plato
    - This looks like "happen upon" meaning to encounter or find by chance.
    - Not fitting here.

 Looking at the sentence "what had happened" - this is asking what event occurred or took place. This matches sense 1: "come to pass."

 Sense 1 examples include "What is happening?" which is very similar to "what had happened" (just different tense).

 Sense 2 seems to be specifically about the construction "It happens that..." where "happen" means something like "it is the case" or "it turns out."

 Sense 3 is about "happen to" + verb (chancing to do something).

 Sense 4 is about materialization.

 Sense 5 is about encountering/finding.

 The most straightforward sense is sense 1: "come to pass" - i.e., occur, take place.

 The sentence is asking what event occurred or took place. This is the basic meaning of "happen" as in "occur" or "take place" or "come to pass."

 Therefore, the answer should be 1.

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

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to identify which numbered sense of "die" is used in the sentence "The landlord had <t>died</t>."

 Let me analyze the sentence: "The landlord had died."

 This is a straightforward use of "die" meaning to cease living, to pass away, to lose one's life.

 Now let's look at the options:

 1. definition=pass from physical life and lose all bodily attributes and functions necessary to sustain life | examples=She died from cancer
 2. definition=suffer or face the pain of death | examples=Martyrs may die every day for their faith
 3. definition=be brought to or as if to the point of death by an intense emotion such as embarrassment, amusement, or shame | examples=I was dying with embarrassment when my little lie was discovered
 4. definition=stop operating or functioning | examples=The engine finally went
 5. definition=feel indifferent towards | examples=She died to worldly things and eventually entered a monastery
 6. definition=languish as with love or desire | examples=She dying for a cigarette
 7. definition=cut or shape with a die | examples=Die out leather for belts
 8. definition=to be on base at the end of an inning, of a player
 9. definition=lose sparkle or bouquet | examples=wine and beer can pall
 10. definition=disappear or come to an end | examples=Their anger died
 11. definition=suffer spiritual death; be damned (in the religious sense) | examples=Whosoever..believes in me shall never die

 The sentence "The landlord had died" clearly refers to the biological/physical death of a person (the landlord). This matches sense 1: "pass from physical life and lose all bodily attributes and functions necessary to sustain life."

 Sense 2 is about suffering the pain of death or facing death, but the sentence says the landlord "had died" (completed action of dying).
 Sense 3 is metaphorical/intense emotion.
 Sense 4 is for machines/engines.
 Sense 5 is about indifference (and uses "die to" not just "die").
 Sense 6 is about longing ("dying for").
 Sense 7 is about manufacturing/tooling.
 Sense 8 is baseball specific.
 Sense 9 is about wine/beer losing quality.
 Sense 10 is metaphorical (anger dying).
 Sense 11 is spiritual/religious death.

 Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

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

Sentence: "Late that afternoon, it <t>seemed</t>, he had fallen off the roof while on some obscure errand or inspection."

The structure here is "it seemed [that] he had fallen off the roof" - this is an extraposition construction where "it" is a placeholder subject.

Let me look at the senses:

1. definition=give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect | examples=She seems to be sleeping
   - This is about appearance/sensory impression. "She seems to be sleeping" suggests she gives the impression of sleeping.

2. definition=seem to be true, probable, or apparent | examples=It seems that he is very gifted
   - This is about inference or judgment of probability/truth. The example "It seems that he is very gifted" matches the structure "It seems that..."

3. definition=appear to exist | examples=There seems no reason to go ahead with the project now
   - This is about existence ("there seems..."). The example uses "There seems no reason..."

4. definition=appear to one's own mind or opinion | examples=I seem to be misunderstood by everyone
   - This seems to be about subjective appearance from the speaker's perspective. "I seem to be..."

In the target sentence: "it seemed, he had fallen off the roof" (with "that" implied or omitted), this is indicating that it appeared true or probable that he had fallen off the roof. It's an inference about what likely happened.

This matches sense 2: "seem to be true, probable, or apparent" with the example "It seems that he is very gifted."

The structure "It seemed that..." or "It seemed [clause]" fits sense 2.

Sense 1 would be more like "He seems tired" (giving an impression).
Sense 3 would be "There seems to be a problem" (existence).
Sense 4 would be "I seem to remember..." (subjective to the speaker).

So the answer should be 2.
