Thus at the recent governors' conference on education, Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas announced that "this country needs a comprehensive child-development policy for children under five.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to disambiguate "blame" in the context: "Parents are too likely to blame schools for the educational limitations of their children."

The phrase "blame schools for X" means to attribute responsibility for X to schools.

Sense 1: put or pin the blame on (fault) - similar
Sense 3: attribute responsibility to (charge) - examples "We blamed the accident on her"

"blame schools for the educational limitations" = attribute responsibility for limitations to schools. This matches sense 3 best (attribute responsibility to), with the example "We blamed the accident on her" being structurally similar (blame X on/for).

Actually sense 1 "put or pin the blame on" is also plausible. But the construction "blame schools for..." - attributing responsibility to schools for something - fits sense 3's gloss "attribute responsibility to" most directly. The example "We blamed the accident on her" shows blame + responsibility attribution.

The answer is sense_index 3.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to disambiguate "home" in the context "Parents should be involved with their children's education at home, not in school."

The phrase "at home" here contrasts with "in school" - it's the place where one lives, the domestic setting as opposed to school. It's referring to the place where you live. Sense 1 "where you live at a particular time" with examples "deliver the package to my home" fits well - at home = at one's residence/place of living.

Could it be sense 7 (environment offering affection and security)? The context is about parental involvement in education happening in the domestic sphere rather than at school. It's more locative - "at home, not in school" is a location contrast. Sense 1 is the best fit: where you live.

The answer is 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "play" in the phrase "play truant". This is an idiom meaning to stay away from school without permission. The phrase "play truant" means to be absent from school without leave.

Looking at the candidate senses:
- Sense 8: pretend to have certain qualities or state of mind (act, act as) - "He acted the idiot; She plays deaf when the news are bad" - "play truant" is similar to "play deaf" - pretending to be something. "Play truant" = act as a truant / be a truant. Actually "play truant" means to pretend to be truant? No, it means to be truant, to stay away.

Actually "play truant" is an idiom where "play" + noun means to act the part of / behave as. Similar to sense 8 examples "She plays deaf" = pretends to be deaf. But "play truant" doesn't mean pretend to be truant—it means actually be truant.

Hmm, in WordNet, "play truant" might be classified under sense 8 (pretend to have certain qualities or state of mind) with synonyms act, act as. "Play the idiot", "play deaf", "play truant" - these are "act as" constructions. Sense 8: pretend to have certain qualities or state of mind; synonyms act, act as; examples: He acted the idiot; She plays deaf when the news are bad.

"Play truant" fits the pattern "play + adjective/noun" = act/behave in that way. The closest is sense 8 (play deaf / act the idiot). Even though "truant" is a noun, the construction is "act as a truant".

Actually let me reconsider. "Play truant" means to stay away from school. The verb "play" here combines with "truant" to mean "be truant". In WordNet this idiomatic usage is typically mapped to sense 8 (act, act as) — "She plays deaf when the news are bad" parallels "play truant" syntactically: play + complement (adjective/noun) describing a role/state.

The best match is sense 8.

reasoning_content: The context discusses parents and their children, parental involvement in education, kids doing homework. "their children" refers to offspring of parents. The target "children" in "the children spend enough time doing homework" refers to the parents' offspring. Sense 2: human offspring (son or daughter) of any age. Although they are young (doing homework), the relational sense to parents is key. In WordNet, "children" as plural of child in context of parents is sense 2 (offspring). Sense 1 is young person of either sex. The context emphasizes parents' children, offspring relation: "Parents should be involved with their children's education... they should make certain that the children spend enough time doing homework". The possessive relation to parents indicates offspring sense 2. Choose 2.

The target word is "option" in the context: "If parents are dissatisfied with a school, they should have the option of switching to another."

This refers to one of a number of things from which only one can be chosen - having the choice/alternative to switch to another school. This is sense 2.

Sense 1 is financial (right to buy/sell property) - not applicable.
Sense 3 is the act of choosing - not quite; here "option" refers to the alternative available, not the act of selecting.

The phrase "have the option of switching" means having the alternative/choice available. Sense 2 fits best with synonyms alternative, choice and example "what option did I have?"

Answer: {"sense_index": 2}

"Here" refers to "on this point" / "in this respect/circumstance" — the writer is saying regarding this issue (community involvement), the experience of NYC is decisive. This matches sense 2: "in this circumstance or respect or on this point or detail" with examples "what do we have here?; here I must disagree".

It's not physical place (sense 1), not motion toward (sense 3), not time/now (sense 4). The phrase "Here, the experience of New York City is decisive" means "On this point, the experience of NYC is decisive." So sense_index 2.

The context is about school boards elected by local communities, not about the body. Sense 1 "by a particular locality" fits. Sense 2 is medical/topical, irrelevant. So answer sense_index 1. Need return only JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 1}. Ensure no extra text.

Target lemma: especially
Target surface form: especially
Context:
Parents should be involved with their children's education at home, not in school. They should see to it that their kids do not play truant; they should make certain that the children spend enough time doing homework; they should scrutinize the report card. If parents are dissatisfied with a school, they should have the option of switching to another. -- "Community involvement "is an even worse idea. Here, the experience of New York City is decisive. Locally elected school boards, <t>especially</t> in our larger cities, become the prey of ambitious, generally corrupt, and invariably demagogic local politicians or would-be politicians. New York is in the process of trying to disengage itself from a 20-year-old commitment to this system of school governance, even as Chicago and other cities are moving to institute it.
