Context:
Major U.S. firms such as Chevron and ConocoPhillips, which have cultivated close ties with the Iraqi Oil Ministry and have provided technical advice in recent years, walked away empty-handed. Russian companies Lukoil and Gazprom were the top stakeholders in two of the contracts awarded this weekend. State-owned China National Petroleum Corporation bid on more contracts than any other company and walked away with large stakes in contracts for two major fields. We all know that China is on track to become a major economic as well as technological power, Oil Ministry spokesman Assam Jihad said. We feel confident that the Chinese company will be on par with its competitors and will deliver on its commitments towards Iraq. Companies pre-selected to submit bids made offers that were then compared to the per barrel fee the ministry was willing to pay for boosting output above current levels at each <t>field</t>.

We need choose single best indexed sense for target lemma state, surface form state. Context: "US banks repay <t>state</t> support The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles."
Target word "state" appears twice? In the headline "US banks repay state support" and in sentence "breaking free from their state shackles." Both uses are same "state" adjective modifying support/shackles meaning government support, government-imposed constraints. Which sense? Candidate senses: 1 territory occupied by constituent administrative district of a nation. 3 group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state. 4 politically organized body of people under a single government (nation). 8 federal department US that sets foreign policies.
"state support" in context of US banks repay government support, i.e., support from the state (government). "state shackles" = government-imposed shackles. The relevant sense is sense 3: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state". Examples: "the state has lowered its income tax". This sense refers to the government as an agent, which fits "state support" and "state shackles" (provided by government). Sense 4 is a politically organized body of people under a single government = nation/country. That would be more "the state has elected a new president" as a nation. But "state support" could mean support from the state (government) not the nation/territory. Sense 3 specifically the government. So best index 3. Need output JSON exactly {"sense_index": 3}.

The user wants us to choose the best WordNet sense for the target lemma "support" in the context: "US banks repay state <t>support</t> The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles."

We need to select single best indexed sense. Candidate senses numbered 1 through 11. Need output JSON {"sense_index": index}.

Let's analyze. Context: US banks repay state support. Banks repay support provided by the state, likely financial aid/bailouts. "support" here refers to financial assistance from the state/government. Candidate senses:
1 support%1:04:04:: activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities. This could fit state support (financial). Examples: his support kept the family together; emotional support during difficult times. It's a noun under noun.act? sense key 1:04:04. The definition: the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities. In "US banks repay state support", "support" is something to be repaid: state support is a noun meaning financial aid. Could be sense 11: financial resources provided to make some project possible (financial support, funding, backing, financial backing, the foundation provided support for the experiment). However the context is banks repaying state support due to crisis bailout. That's financial resources/funding. In economics/business news, "state support" often means "financial support by the state". WordNet sense 11 is specifically financial resources provided to make some project possible: examples the foundation provided support for the experiment. So sense 11 is arguably most appropriate.

Sense 6: the financial means whereby one lives; keep, livelihood, living, bread and butter, sustenance. "he applied to the state for support". This is about personal financial support; not exactly state support to banks. But "state support" can be "support" from the state. The example "he applied to the state for support" maps to sense 6! Wait the example includes "he applied to the state for support". That suggests sense 6 maybe. However sense 6 is "the financial means whereby one lives" e.g., each child was expected to pay for their keep; welfare support? "state support" for individual could be welfare. But in headline "US banks repay state support", banks are repaying state support (bailout money), not livelihood. The phrase "state support" is ambiguous. Let's parse glosses.

Candidate 1 sense_key=support%1:04:04:: definition=the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities | examples include emotional support and "his support kept the family together". The lexicographer file is noun.act? 1:04 maybe noun.act? Actually WordNet noun lexicographer file categories: noun.Tops 03 etc. 04 likely noun.act? Let's check WordNet: ss_type 1=noun, lex_filenum 04 = noun.act? Yes. So support%1:04:04 is noun act: activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money/necessities. This is generic.

Candidate 11 = support%1:21:01:: noun.possession? lex_filenum 21 is noun.possession? Actually WordNet categories: 21=noun.possession? Let's recall: 01=noun.Tops, 03=noun.animal? Hmm need not. Definition financial resources provided to make some project possible. Examples the foundation provided support for the experiment. This is like funding. This seems perfect: banks repay state financial resources/funding provided during crisis.

Candidate 6 = financial means whereby one lives. Example: "he applied to the state for support". That is state welfare support as source of income. But banks are not applying to the state for support as livelihood; the state provided them support in the sense of financial resources to avoid collapse. So likely 11, not 6. The clue "repay state support" also implies a financial resource that can be repaid; sense 11 is about resources provided to make a project possible. Could also be sense 1, activity of providing with money and necessities; but "repay support" would be repayment of the support (money), not the activity. Sense 11 fits best.

Need output only JSON. So final answer {"sense_index": 11}.

But let's carefully consider if there might be a sense for support meaning "aid given by a government to an industry"? Not in these. The closest noun is 11. The example "the foundation provided support for the experiment" is analogous to "the state provided support for the banks." "repay state support" = repay the funding/backing.

Thus answer sense 11. Ensure JSON exact.

We need answer with JSON only. Need determine best sense. Target: "state" in phrase "state support" and "state shackles" referring to US banks repay state support. It likely means government support, from the state (government, nation). Candidate 4: politically organized body of people under a single government. Synonyms nation/country. Candidate 3: group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state (the government). In phrase "state support", it means support by the state/government, particularly US government (TARP). The article: "US banks repay state support". Could be sense 3 (government). However "state" as in nation state, the political entity. Also "state shackles" - from the state (nation). Candidate 4 includes country, nation. The phrase "state support" often means government support; in economics, "state" can be the government. WordNet sense 3 specifically is "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state". Sense 4 is the whole body. Which better fits? Need choose single best.

Context: "US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles." Here "state" means the government. Examples of sense 3: "the state has lowered its income tax" - the government. Sense 4 example: "the state has elected a new president" - can also mean the people/nation.

"US banks repay state support" = support from the state (government). This aligns with sense 3. But WordNet: sense 3 is "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state". That is the government. Sense 4 is "a politically organized body of people under a single government". The phrase "state support" = support by the state (government). So sense 3. However, in many WSD annotations, "state" in "state support" likely sense 4 "nation, country"? Let's analyze.

The gloss for sense 1: province in a federal state, not applicable. Sense 7: territory of a nation. Not. Sense 8: Department of State (US). No.

Sense 3 vs 4: "state" as support from the government. In WordNet, sense 1:14:01 = "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state" (government). Sense 1:14:00 = " politically organized body... nation". In "the state has lowered its income tax", state as government. The phrase "state support" is like government support. So I'd choose 3.

But let's be careful. In WordNet, "state" sense 3 is more abstractly the government; sense 4 is the nation as a political body. The article: "US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles" and "US banks repay state support". This is the government (US government). Since TARP is a government protection fund, "state support" = government support. Therefore sense 3.

We need pick among 1, 6, 11 maybe. "state support" from TARP: financial assistance given by the government to banks. They repay the support. It's a sum of money USD 45 billion. The support is financial resources provided to make some project possible? The project possible = keep bank afloat. Sense 11: financial resources provided to make some project possible; financial support, funding, backing. The foundation provided support for the experiment. Here the state provided support (funding/backing) to banks.

Sense 1: activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities. That is more of ongoing support, like his support kept the family together, emotional support. It is the activity. But "repaid the support" sounds they repaid the money/financial support. "state support" as a noun referring to amount.

Sense 6: financial means whereby one lives; example he applied to the state for support. This refers to welfare, livelihood, often personal/family. Not a bank bailout.

Sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible" fits government bailout funds. The support = financial backing/funding. So best is 11.

The user wants me to perform word sense disambiguation on the word "bank" in a given context.

Context: "US banks repay state support The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles. On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the <t>bank</t> protection fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go."

The target is "bank" in "bank protection fund". This is about financial institutions - banks in the US repaying state support, Bank of America, Citigroup, TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program), etc.

Candidate sense 2: "a financial institution that accepts deposits and channels the money into lending activities" - this is the financial institution sense.

"bank protection fund" refers to a fund protecting banks/financial institutions.

The target surface form is "bank" in the phrase "<t>bank</t> protection fund TARP". So it's a modifier describing a protection fund for banks (financial institutions).

Sense 2 is the best fit. Index 2.

I need to return only JSON: {"sense_index": 2}.

 We need choose best WordNet indexed sense for "reports" in context. Let's analyze.

Target: "according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC". This means reports from a broadcaster. They are likely news reports or verbal accounts broadcast. Candidate senses:
1 report%1:10:03 written document describing findings (study) - not a broadcaster report.
2 report%1:10:01 act of informing by verbal report - account; examples "he heard reports that they were causing trouble". This matches plural reports, "according to reports" meaning reports/information people are giving. But source is broadcaster (CNBC), so likely news reports.
3 report%1:10:00 short account of the news, synonyms news report, story, account; examples "the report of his speech; the story was on the 11 o'clock news". "according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC" - news reports from broadcaster. Good.
4 sound no.
5 report card no.
6 essay no.
7 reputation no.

Between 2 and 3. WordNet sense 1:10:00 is noun "report: a short account of the news". Sense 1:10:01 is "the act of informing by verbal report / account". In "according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC", "reports" are items of news. Since CNBC is US broadcaster, these are news stories. Sense 3 seems best. The examples include "the story was on the 11 o'clock news". Also "reports" plural fits news reports. The phrase "according to reports" often maps to news reports. However sense 2 examples: "he heard reports that they were causing trouble" plural. But that sense emphasizes act of informing by verbal report, generic account. Here it's from broadcaster, so news report. Choose index 3. Need return JSON exactly.

 The user wants me to perform word sense disambiguation for the lemma "broadcaster". The target surface form is "broadcaster" and the context mentions "US broadcaster CNBC".

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=broadcaster%1:18:00:: - someone who broadcasts on radio or television
2. sense_key=broadcaster%1:06:00:: - a mechanical device for scattering something

In the context, "US broadcaster CNBC" refers to CNBC which is a television network/channel, i.e., a company/organization that broadcasts on television. This aligns with sense 1 (someone who broadcasts on radio or television) - though it says "someone", in WSD we often use this for organizations/companies that broadcast as well. Sense 2 is clearly a mechanical device (spreader), which doesn't fit.

The user wants the answer as a single JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}. I need to return {"sense_index": 1} since sense 1 is the best match.

Let me make sure - the instruction says "Do not answer with a WordNet sense key." and "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}." So I should only output the JSON with the index.

reasoning_content:
We need answer with single JSON object {"sense_index": ...}. Need analyze target word "state" in context: "US banks repay state support" and "state shackles", "state support". Here "state support" likely support provided by the government. The phrase "state shackles", "the bank protection fund TARP" (a government program), "restrictions ... manager bonuses". In this context "state" as a noun means the government (the group of people comprising government of a sovereign state), maybe politically organized body (nation/government). Candidate senses:
1 administrative district.
2 way something is.
3 group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state.
4 politically organized body of people under single government (nation/country).
5 chemistry.
6 state of depression.
7 territory occupied by nation.
8 US Department of State.

"state support" often means support from the government, not nation/country as territory. Could be sense 3 (the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state), because it's government support, TARP (federal government action). Examples for sense 3: "the state has lowered its income tax" (government). Sense 4 is broader: the state as country/nation, example "the state has elected a new president". However "state support" might mean support from the state/country (nation). In British newspaper usage, "state" often=us government. Need decide between 3 and 4. The context: "US banks repay state support", "breaking free from their state shackles", "restrictions ... acceptance of the money". The support came from a bank protection fund TARP, which is U.S. government. TARP = government, taxpayers. "state" here = government. Sense 3 definition: the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state. Examples: "the state has lowered its income tax". This captures government support. Sense 4: the politically organized body of people under a single government, synonyms nation/country, examples African nations; "New president". But "repay state support" is more about government support. Also "government" not "nation/territory". So likely index 3.

Let's verify WordNet state%1:14:01:: is 정부; sense 4 state%1:14:00:: is country/nation. Fine. We should output only JSON exactly.

- Content: Banks repaid support from TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program), a bank protection fund
- Citigroup plans to repay state support
- This is about financial bailout/support from the government/state

Candidate senses:
1. Activity of providing for/maintaining by supplying with money/necessities
2. Aiding the cause/policy/interests
3. Something providing immaterial assistance
4. Military operation
5. Documentary validation
6. Financial means whereby one lives (keep/livelihood)
7. Supporting structure
8. Act of bearing weight/strengthening
9. Musical accompaniment
10. Device bearing weight
11. Financial resources provided to make some project possible

The relevant ones:
- Sense 1: activity of providing by supplying money/necessities - "his support kept the family together" - close
- Sense 6: financial means/support one lives - "he applied to the state for support"
- Sense 11: financial resources provided to make some project possible - "the foundation provided support for the experiment"

The context is about banks repaying financial support from the state. They accepted money from government funds (TARP). This is financial aid provided to the banks.

Sense 11 says "financial resources provided to make some project possible" with synonyms: financial support, funding, backing, financial backing; example: "the foundation provided support for the experiment"

Sense 6 says "the financial means whereby one lives" with synonyms including livelihood, living, keep, bread and butter; example: "each child was expected to pay for their keep; he applied to the state for support"

The "state support" in the headline and context is funds/money provided by the state to the banks, which they need to repay. This is literally financial resources.

Between 1, 6, 11:
- 1: activity of providing (the act of providing support)
- 6: financial means one lives on (subsistence)
- 11: financial resources provided to make a project/business/etc possible (financial support/funding)

In common financial/political contexts, "state support" often refers to "financial support from the state." The example of sense 11 "the foundation provided support for the experiment" matches the pattern: "the state provided support for the banks/company/project."

But wait, the headline literally says "state support" and "repay the state support." It could also be interpreted as "financial resources provided by the state to keep the banks running" - sense 6 is about "the financial means whereby one lives" but here it's for a bank, not a person.

Actually, let's look at the definitions again:

Sense 1: "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities; they gave him emotional support during difficult times"

Sense 6: "the financial means whereby one lives"

Sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible; synonyms=financial support, funding, backing, financial backing; examples=the foundation provided support for the experiment"

The context: banks received financial support from the state (TARP), which they are repaying. This is exactly sense 11: financial resources provided to make some project/business/viability possible. The synonyms include "financial support, funding, backing, financial backing" which are exactly what banks get from the state during a crisis.

Sense 1 is more general "activity of providing" and includes emotional support. Sense 6 is specifically means of living. Sense 11 is specifically financial resources provided.

I think 11 is the best fit.

But let me double-check WordNet indexing. WordNet 3.1 sense for support.n has several senses. Let me verify the ordering is as given by the user.

The user provides numbered candidate senses 1-11. I just need to pick the number. I select 11.

Wait, I need to be careful. The target word appears in the phrase "repay the state support" and "repaid the support from the bank protection fund TARP." So support here means money/funds provided.

Sense 1: "his support kept the family together" — this could refer to monetary support too (activity of providing money).

Sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible" — this would refer to the actual money/resources.

In "repay state support," you repay the actual money given, not the activity. So sense 11 (the financial resources themselves) seems better than sense 1 (the activity of providing).

Sense 6: "financial means whereby one lives" — implies livelihood, which doesn't fit institutions.

So 11 is best.

 The user asks me to perform word sense disambiguation for "institutions" in context. I need to choose the best indexed sense from 5 candidate senses and return JSON.

Context: It's about US banks (Bank of America, Citigroup) repaying state support. "The <t>institutions</t> thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions..." referring to the banks.

Bank of America and Citigroup are organizations/financial institutions. "The institutions" refers to these banks as organizations founded and united for a specific purpose (financial/banking purposes).

Sense 1: an organization founded and united for a specific purpose | synonyms=establishment - this fits best. Banks are institutions in this sense (financial institutions).

Sense 2: an establishment consisting of a building or complex of buildings - this is the physical building sense, not appropriate for banks as organizations wanting freedom from restrictions.

Sense 3: a custom that has been an important feature of some group or society - not applicable to banks.

Sense 4: the act of starting something - noun form of instituting, not applicable.

Sense 5: a mental hospital - not applicable.

So the answer is sense index 1. Return JSON {"sense_index": 1}.

 We need answer JSON only. Need choose best sense for "restrictions" in context. Let's analyze. Target lemma restriction, surface restrictions. Context: banks repay state support (TARP) to free themselves from restrictions going hand-in-hand with acceptance of money, such as limits on manager bonuses and paying of high charges. So restrictions are rules/regulations that impose limits. WordNet candidate senses: 1 restriction%1:09:00:: principle that limits extent of something, synonyms limitation, examples I am willing to accept certain restrictions on my movements. 2 restriction%1:04:00:: an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation), synonyms limitation. 3 restriction%1:04:01:: act of keeping something within specified bounds, synonyms confinement, example restriction of infection to focal area. Need choose between noun sense 09? Actually sense 1 is a cognitive artifact/abstraction principle that limits extent. Sense 2 is act/dynamic of limiting by regulation. Sense 3 is act of keeping within bounds, confinement. In this context, "restrictions ... such as limits on manager bonuses" are things/rules/principles that limit actions, not acts of limiting. They are conditions, limitations, rules. So sense 1 is best: "a principle that limits the extent of something" - restrictions accepted with money. Actually bankers want to free themselves from the restrictions (conditions/rules) e.g. limits on bonuses. The plural "restrictions" refers to specific rules or limitations. WordNet 1:09:00 maybe 'abstraction' as principle. Example "certain restrictions on my movements". Thus sense_index 1. But sense 2 synonyms limitation and act of limiting as by regulation. Hmm maybe "limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges" are regulations? The phrase "going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money" suggests conditions/agreements, i.e., rules. However WordNet sense 1 is often used for imposed limits as conditions, like "restrictions on bonuses". Need decide single best. Let's examine candidate definitions:
1. a principle that limits the extent of something. This is a principle. "restrictions" such as limits on manager bonuses = principles/conditions limiting behavior. Yes.
2. an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation). That is the action/process. In context, the banks want to be free from the restrictions, not from the act of restricting? They might want to be free from restrictions (rules). Example: "import restrictions" maybe sense 1 or 2. Let's think test: "I am willing to accept certain restrictions on my movements" uses restrictions as rules/conditions. This is sense 1. "the restriction of the infection" is act confinement, sense 3. sense 2 example? "restriction of trade" perhaps act. Here "restrictions" are comparable to "limits" (noun abstracta). So sense 1 likely.
Need return {"sense_index":1}.

 We need choose best sense. Context: "restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money". It means the act of taking/receiving the offered money (state support/TARP). Sense 7: "the act of taking something that is offered" examples: her acceptance of the gift encouraged him; he anticipated their acceptance of his offer. That's literally receiving/taking the offered money. Sense 2: act of accepting with approval/favorable reception (proposal found wide acceptance). Acceptation may be more social adoption. Here it's about institutions accepting the money/state support, taking it. Could be sense 7. Sense 4 contract law: words signifying consent to terms of offer creating contract. Not financial contract terms. Sense 5 banking: banker's acceptance (a draft). No. Sense 3 state of being acceptable. No. Sense 6 toleration. No. Sense 1 mental attitude believable. No.

So best = 7.

reasoning_content:
 We need choose sense for "money" in the context. Three senses:
1 money%1:21:00:: definition=the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender. examples we tried to collect the money he owed us.
2 money%1:21:02:: definition=wealth reckoned in terms of money. examples all his money is in real estate.
3 money%1:21:01:: definition=the official currency issued by a government or national bank. examples he changed his money into francs.

Context: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges." The money refers to state support/TARP funds USD 45 billion. The banks are repaying the support/money from state. Is it the official currency issued by government? In context, money as currency? TARP money is government-issued currency. But the phrase "acceptance of the money" is specific funds (medium of exchange). Hmm.

Need choose one best sense. Let's analyze WordNet senses.
Sense 1 is the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender. General term. Examples collecting money owed. Sense 3 is official currency issued by government or national bank; e.g., changed his money into francs. That emphasizes official currency, bank notes/coins. Sense 2 is wealth reckoned in terms of money; e.g., all his money is in real estate.

In the text, "acceptance of the money" refers to accepting the support/funds from the government. It is a transfer of dollars (USD) by the state. Could be "official currency issued by a government or national bank" because support from state is government-issued money. But is that nuance intended? WordNet's sense 3 likely is for foreign currency, changing money. The context not about official currency vs non-official; it's about money as funds/medium of exchange.

Need choose single best sense. Let's think carefully. The target word's line: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges." Here money = the state support, the capital injected. Which sense covers "the money"? General sense 1: the accepted medium of exchange; legal tender. The borrowed funds. The phrase "collect the money he owed" matches repayment. Sense 1 may be more appropriate. But sense 3 examples "he changed his money into francs" also involve money as currency; the repayment into original currency? The bank repaid "USD 45 billion in one go". It is USD official currency. However "restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money" does not highlight official currency, just money as a quantity/loan.

WordNet sense ordering is by frequency? Sense 1 is most common. Dictionary definitions:
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.

The distinction: sense 1 is generic "money" as medium. Sense 3 is when referring to national currency as contrasted with foreign currencies. Example "he changed his money into francs" clearly. In this context there is no contrast with foreign currency. So sense 1 seems best.

Let me analyze the context:
- The text is about US banks repaying state support (TARP)
- The restrictions associated with accepting the money include "limits on manager bonuses"
- This refers to extra compensation/payments to managers

Sense 1: "anything that tends to arouse" with synonym "fillip" - this doesn't fit. A fillip is a stimulus or something that arouses interest/enthusiasm.

Sense 2: "an additional payment (or other remuneration) to employees as a means of increasing output" with synonym "incentive" - this fits the context of manager bonuses as additional payments/remuneration to employees.

The context clearly talks about financial compensation to managers, not something that arouses interest. So sense 2 is the best choice.

The candidate senses are indexed 1 and 2. The best sense is index 2.

 Let me analyze the context. The sentence is about US banks repaying state support and the restrictions that came with accepting the money, such as "limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges." Here, "charges" refers to fees or prices that institutions have to pay. The relevant sense should be related to financial payments or prices.

Looking at the candidates:
- Sense 3: "the price charged for some article or service" - this matches well with fees/prices in a financial context.
- Sense 8: "financial liabilities (such as a tax)" - this also could fit, but charges here are more like fees for services rather than taxes/liabilities.
- Sense 11: "request for payment of a debt" - this refers to billing action, not the fees themselves.

The phrase "paying of high charges" suggests general fees or prices paid for services/articles. Sense 3 is the best fit: "the price charged for some article or service." The example "the admission charge" supports this - it's a fee paid to access something.

Sense 8 (charges against an estate as liabilities/taxes) is a more specific legal/financial liability context, which doesn't fit as well here. The context is about operational expenses/freedom to pay bonuses and high fees, not tax liabilities.

So the best answer is sense 3.
