The context discusses bellringing, and the sentence says "a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field." Here, "field" refers to a domain or area of activity/profession. This matches sense 7: "a particular environment or walk of life" with synonyms sphere, domain, area, orbit, arena.

Sense 4 is "a branch of knowledge" which could also apply, but in this context it's more about the professional/practical domain of bellringing rather than an academic discipline. Sense 7 fits better.

reasoning_content:
The target word "today" appears in the context: "more than a third of the ringers today are women."

Let me analyze the two candidate senses:

1. sense_key=today%1:28:00:: | definition=the present time or age | examples=the world of today; today we have computers
2. sense_key=today%1:28:01:: | definition=the day that includes the present moment (as opposed to yesterday or tomorrow) | examples=Today is beautiful; did you see today's newspaper?

In the context, "more than a third of the ringers today are women" - this is talking about ringers in the present time/age, not specifically about this particular day. It's a general statement about the current state of bellringing. This aligns with sense 1, "the present time or age."

The earlier sentence also uses "today" in a similar way: "of the 100,000 trained bellringers in England today" - again referring to the present time/age, not a specific day.

So sense 1 is the best match.

reasoning_content:
The context is about bellringers in England, and specifically mentions "a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field; more than a third of the ringers today are women." This is referring to women as adult female persons in general, as a class of people who participate in bellringing.

Let me look at the candidate senses:
1. "an adult female person (as opposed to a man)" - this fits well
2. "a female person who plays a significant role in the life of a particular man" - this is about a romantic partner, doesn't fit
3. "a human female employed to do housework" - this is about a cleaning lady/charwoman, doesn't fit
4. "women as a class" - "womanhood, fair sex" - this could also fit since it's referring to women as a class entering the field

Between 1 and 4: The context says "a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field" - this is talking about individual women entering a field, but it's treating women as a demographic/class. The example for sense 4 is "it's an insult to American womanhood" which is more about womanhood as a concept.

Sense 1 is "an adult female person" - this fits the individual sense.
Sense 4 is "women as a class" - this fits the collective sense.

The sentence "more than a third of the ringers today are women" treats women as a group/class. However, "a growing number of women have entered" is more about individual women joining.

Actually, looking more carefully, sense 1's example is "the woman kept house while the man hunted" which is more of an individual. The context is talking about women as a collective group of people.

But sense 4's examples are more abstract ("it's an insult to American womanhood") - referring to womanhood as a concept.

I think sense 1 is the better fit. When we say "more than a third of the ringers today are women," we're saying they are adult female persons. Even though it's plural and collective, the meaning is that they are adult female persons.

Actually, let me reconsider. Sense 4 is "women as a class" with synonym "womanhood, fair sex" - this is more about the abstract concept of womanhood. The context is about actual women who are ringers, not about womanhood as an abstract concept.

Sense 1 fits best: these are adult female persons who happen to be ringers.

I'll go with sense 1, which is sense_index 1.

The target word "however" appears in the context: "They are not accepted everywhere, however."

This is a concessive/contrastive use. The sentence before states that a growing number of women have entered the field (positive). Then "however" introduces a contrast: "They are not accepted everywhere."

Let me consider the candidates:

1. "despite anything to the contrary (usually following a concession)" - synonyms include nevertheless, still, yet, all the same, even so
2. "by contrast; on the other hand" - example: "the first part was easy; the second, however, took hours"
3. "to whatever degree or extent"
4. "in whatever way or manner"

Senses 1 and 2 are both contrastive. Sense 1 is about concession ("despite anything to the contrary"), while sense 2 is about contrast ("on the other hand").

In the context, the previous sentence talks about a positive trend (women entering the field), and "however" introduces a counterpoint that they aren't accepted everywhere. This is more of a contrast/juxtaposition rather than a concession.

Actually, let me think more carefully. "However" can function as a conjunctive adverb that introduces a contrasting statement. The example for sense 2: "the first part was easy; the second, however, took hours" - this is very similar in structure to our context where one fact is presented, then "however" introduces a contrasting fact.

Sense 1 is more about concession - "although X, however Y" type structures. The example "although I'm a little afraid, however I'd like to try it" shows a concessive use.

In our context, there's no explicit concession being made. It's more of a straightforward contrast: "women are entering the field... however, they are not accepted everywhere." This fits sense 2 better - "by contrast; on the other hand."

But wait, sense 1's example also includes "while we disliked each other, nevertheless we agreed" - this is concessive too. And the synonyms "nevertheless, still, yet, all the same, even so" suggest it's about overcoming/going against an expectation.

I think sense 2 is the better fit here because it's introducing a contrasting point rather than overriding a concession. The structure is: positive fact → however → negative fact. This is contrastive juxtaposition.

Actually, this is tricky. Let me look at the definitions again:
- Sense 1: "despite anything to the contrary (usually following a concession)" - This suggests it comes after a concession has been made
- Sense 2: "by contrast; on the other hand" - This suggests a simple contrast

In our context, the previous statement is not a concession - it's just a positive statement. So sense 2 (contrast) seems more appropriate.

I'll go with sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The context is about bell-ringing in churches, specifically about ringers, change ringing in parishes, the Ancient Society of College Youths, and "The Ringing World" newspaper. This is clearly about the activity of playing/changing church bells (campanology/change ringing), not electioneering.

Sense 1: "the sound of someone playing a set of bells" - this is about the sound itself
Sense 3: "playing a set of bells that are (usually) hung in a tower" - this is about the activity of playing bells in a tower, which matches the church context

Sense 3 is the best match because the context is about the practice/activity of bell-ringing in churches and towers, not merely the sound.

reasoning_content:
The target word "country" appears in the context: "The oldest bell-ringing group in the country, the Ancient Society of College Youths, founded in 1637, remains male-only..."

This is referring to Britain as a whole - "the country" meaning the nation. The context discusses bell-ringing groups across Britain, mentions St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey, and refers to "This being Britain." So "the country" here refers to the nation/political entity.

Let me consider the candidates:
1. "a politically organized body of people under a single government" - this is the nation as a political entity
2. "the territory occupied by a nation" - this is the physical territory
3. "the people who live in a nation or country" - this is the population
4. "an area outside of cities and towns" - rural area
5. "a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary" - a region

The phrase "the oldest bell-ringing group in the country" - here "the country" refers to Britain as a nation. It could be sense 1 (the political entity) or sense 2 (the territory).

Looking at the examples for sense 1: "the state has elected a new president; African nations" - this is about the political entity.
Looking at sense 2: "he returned to the land of his birth; he visited several European countries" - this is about the territory.

"The oldest bell-ringing group in the country" - this is saying the group is the oldest within the nation of Britain. It's referring to the country as a political/geographical entity.

Actually, "in the country" here is more about the territory/nation. When we say "the oldest X in the country," we're referring to the country as a place/territory. Sense 2 seems most appropriate: "the territory occupied by a nation."

Wait, but sense 1 is about the political entity. "In the country" could mean "within the political entity" or "within the territory."

Hmm, let me think again. "The oldest bell-ringing group in the country" - this is saying the group exists within the boundaries of the country. This is more about the territory. Sense 2: "the territory occupied by a nation."

Actually, in common usage, "in the country" when referring to a nation typically uses sense 1 or sense 2. The distinction is subtle. Sense 1 is the abstract political entity, sense 2 is the physical territory.

Given that we're talking about a group being "in" the country, this suggests a locative sense - the territory. So sense 2 seems best.

But wait, sense 1's examples include "African nations" which is similar to "the country" referring to a nation. And the definition "a politically organized body of people under a single government" fits Britain well.

Let me reconsider. "The oldest bell-ringing group in the country" - the group is located within the country. This is a spatial/locative usage, pointing to sense 2 (territory).

However, in WordNet, these distinctions can be tricky. Let me look at the glosses again:
- Sense 1: "a politically organized body of people under a single government" - the abstract entity
- Sense 2: "the territory occupied by a nation" - the land/territory

"In the country" with a locative preposition typically points to the territory (sense 2). For example, "the oldest church in the country" means the church located in the territory.

I'll go with sense 2.

Actually, let me reconsider once more. The phrase "in the country" can be ambiguous. But when we say "the oldest X in the country," we're emphasizing that X is within the boundaries of the nation. This is sense 2.

Final answer: sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "founded" in the context: "the Ancient Society of College Youths, <t>founded</t> in 1637"

This clearly means the society was established/set up in 1637.

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. sense 1: "set up or found" with synonyms "establish, set up, launch" - example "She set up a literacy program"
2. sense 2: "set up or lay the groundwork for" with synonyms "establish, plant, constitute, institute" - example "establish a new department"

Both senses 1 and 2 relate to establishing something. Let me look more carefully.

Sense 1: definition "set up or found" - very general
Sense 2: definition "set up or lay the groundwork for" - synonyms include "establish, plant, constitute, institute"

The context is about an organization being founded/established in 1637. Both could apply, but sense 1 has the definition literally including "found" as a synonym, which matches "founded" perfectly. Sense 1's example "She set up a literacy program" is more analogous to founding an organization.

Sense 2's example "establish a new department" is also similar.

Looking at WordNet more carefully, sense 1 (found%2:41:00) and sense 2 (found%2:36:00) are likely:
- sense 1: The verb "found" meaning to set up an organization
- sense 2: A more general "set up or lay the groundwork for"

Actually, in WordNet, these two senses of "found" might differ subtly. Sense 1 might be more about starting/launching an organization, while sense 2 might be more about establishing principles or foundations.

For "the Ancient Society of College Youths, founded in 1637" - this is about creating/establishing an organization.

Sense 1 with synonyms "establish, set up, launch" fits best because it specifically uses "found" as a synonym, and the example is about setting up a program (like setting up an organization).

I'll go with sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "remains" in the context: "The oldest bell-ringing group in the country, the Ancient Society of College Youths, founded in 1637, remains male-only..."

This means the group continues to be male-only. Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. stay the same; remain in a certain state - synonyms: stay, rest
2. continue in a place, position, or situation - synonyms: stay, stay on, continue
3. be left; of persons, questions, problems, results, evidence, etc.
4. stay behind - synonyms: persist, stay

The group "remains male-only" - meaning it continues to be male-only, it stays in that state. This could fit sense 1 (stay the same) or sense 2 (continue in a state/condition).

Sense 1 is about "staying the same" or "remaining in a certain state" - this fits well because the group continues to maintain its male-only status.

Sense 2 is about continuing in a place, position, or situation - this is more about physical location or a role/position.

The example for sense 1: "The dress remained wet after repeated attempts to dry it; rest assured" - this is about maintaining a state.

The example for sense 2: "After graduation, she stayed on in Cambridge as a student adviser; Stay with me, please" - this is about continuing in a position or place.

"Remains male-only" means it continues to have the quality/state of being male-only. This is more about staying in a certain state rather than continuing in a position/place.

Actually, sense 1 seems most appropriate. The group remains (stays) male-only - it's about the state/condition being maintained.

Sense 2 could also work - "continue in a situation" - the group continues in the situation of being male-only. But sense 1 is more about the state itself.

I'll go with sense 1.

Here, "fact" refers to a piece of information about a circumstance that exists - specifically, that the Ancient Society of College Youths remains male-only. This is a piece of information about a circumstance that exists.

Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. fact%1:09:01:: - "a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred" - examples: "first you must collect all the facts of the case"

4. fact%1:09:02:: - "a concept whose truth can be proved" - examples: "scientific hypotheses are not facts"

The context is: "remains male-only, a fact that's particularly galling to women..." - This is referring to a piece of information about a circumstance that exists (the group remains male-only). This fits sense 1 best - "a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred."

Sense 2 is about a statement or assertion of verified information - this could also fit but sense 1 seems more direct as it's about a circumstance that exists.

Sense 3 is about an event known to have happened - this doesn't fit as well because the "fact" here is about a current state (remaining male-only), not a past event.

Sense 4 is about a concept whose truth can be proved - this doesn't fit the context.

I'll go with sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word "particularly" is used in the context: "a fact that's particularly galling to women because the group is the sole source of ringers..."

Here, "particularly" modifies "galling" and means "especially" or "to a distinctly greater extent than is common." It's emphasizing the degree to which something is galling.

Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=particularly%4:02:00:: | definition="to a distinctly greater extent or degree than is common" | synonyms=peculiarly, especially, specially | examples="he was particularly fussy about spelling; a particularly gruesome attack"

2. sense_key=particularly%4:02:02:: | definition="specifically or especially distinguished from others" | synonyms=in particular | examples="loves Bach, particularly his partitas; recommended one book in particular"

3. sense_key=particularly%4:02:01:: | definition="uniquely or characteristically" | synonyms=peculiarly | examples="these peculiarly cinematic elements; a peculiarly French phenomenon"

The context uses "particularly" to mean "especially" - emphasizing the degree of how galling this fact is. This aligns with sense 1, which is about "to a distinctly greater extent or degree than is common."

Sense 2 is more about singling out a specific item from a group (like "in particular").
Sense 3 is about something being characteristic or unique.

The answer is sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "women" in the context of bell-ringing. The context discusses women entering the bell-ringing field, being part of the ringer population, and facing discrimination from a male-only group. This refers to women as a class of adult female persons.

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. sense_key=woman%1:18:00:: | definition=an adult female person (as opposed to a man) - This is the general sense of adult females.
2. sense_key=woman%1:18:01:: | definition=a female person who plays a significant role (wife or mistress or girlfriend) in the life of a particular man - Not relevant here.
3. sense_key=woman%1:18:02:: | definition=a human female employed to do housework - Not relevant here.
4. sense_key=woman%1:14:00:: | definition=women as a class | synonyms=womanhood, fair sex - This refers to women as a class.

The context talks about "a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field" and "more than a third of the ringers today are women" and "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit." These uses refer to women as individual adult females in general, not specifically as a class. However, the last instance "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit" could be seen as referring to women as a class.

Actually, looking more carefully:
- "a growing number of women have entered" - individual women
- "more than a third of the ringers today are women" - individual women
- "particularly galling to women" - could be either
- "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit" - individual women (no specific woman has)

These all seem to refer to individual adult female persons, which is sense 1.

Sense 4 (women as a class) would be more appropriate for phrases like "women's rights" or "the role of women in society" where we're talking about the collective class.

In this context, the women are individual adult females who are bell-ringers or who might file suits. So sense 1 is the best fit.

The "Ancient Society of College Youths" is the "sole source of ringers" for these churches, meaning they provide the people who ring the bells at these church buildings.

Sense 2: "a place for public (especially Christian) worship" - this matches perfectly. St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey are physical places of worship.

Sense 1 refers to a denomination/group of Christians.
Sense 3 refers to a worship service.

The best match is sense 2 - church building.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "woman" in the context: "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit." This is referring to women in general as a class, contrasting with the male-only group and the issue of discrimination. However, let me look more carefully.

The passage discusses women entering the field of bell-ringing and facing discrimination. The sentence "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit" could refer to:
- A specific individual woman (sense 1: adult female person)
- Women as a class (sense 4)

In this context, "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit" means "no woman (as an individual or any woman) has filed such a suit." It's a general statement about women not having taken legal action. This could be either sense 1 (referring to individual adult females) or sense 4 (women as a class).

Looking at the examples for sense 4: "it's an insult to American womanhood" - this is a collective/general statement about women. The context here is more about the general situation of women in bell-ringing not filing lawsuits, which seems like a statement about women as a class rather than any specific individual.

But actually, "no woman has filed" is making a claim that zero individual women have done so. It's a general statement but it's still about individual women. However, sense 1 says "an adult female person (as opposed to a man)" with example "the woman kept house while the man hunted."

Hmm, this is tricky. Let me think about the broader context. The passage discusses women as a group entering the field and facing discrimination. The sentence "no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit" is a generalization about women's behavior in this context.

Sense 4 ("women as a class") seems to fit better because the sentence is making a general observation about the behavior of women collectively, not about a specific individual woman.

I'll go with sense 4.

This means someone submitted/registered a legal document. Let me look at the candidate senses:

5. sense_key=file%2:32:00:: | definition=place in a container for keeping records | synonyms=file away | examples=File these bills, please

The context is about "filing an equal-opportunity suit" - which is a legal action. This means submitting/registering a legal document with a court.

Sense 1: "record in a public office or in a court of law" with examples "file for divorce; file a complaint" - this fits perfectly.
Sense 4: "file a formal charge against" with synonyms "charge, lodge" - this is more about charging someone with a crime, not filing a suit.

The best match is sense 1, which is index 1.

Context:
But the council's program to attract and train ringers is only partly successful, says Mr. Baldwin. "Right now, we're lucky if after five years we keep one new ringer out of 10, "he adds. One bright sign is that a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field; more than a third of the ringers today are women. They are not accepted everywhere, however. The oldest bell-ringing group in the country, the Ancient Society of College Youths, founded in 1637, remains male-only, a fact that's particularly galling to women because the group is the sole source of ringers for Britain's most prestigious churches, St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. This being Britain, no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit, but the extent of the <t>problem</t> surfaced this summer in a series of letters to "The Ringing World, "a weekly newspaper for ringers.

reasoning_content:
The target word "problem" appears in the context: "the extent of the problem surfaced this summer in a series of letters to 'The Ringing World'..."

The context is about women not being accepted in bell-ringing groups, and this being a social issue. The word "problem" here refers to a source of difficulty or trouble - specifically the issue of women not being accepted in the Ancient Society of College Youths.

Let me consider the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=problem%1:26:00:: | definition=a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved | synonyms=job
2. sense_key=problem%1:10:00:: | definition=a question raised for consideration or solution
3. sense_key=problem%1:09:00:: | definition=a source of difficulty | synonyms=trouble

The context describes "the extent of the problem" - this refers to the issue/difficulty of women not being accepted in bell-ringing. It's a source of difficulty or trouble. The synonym "trouble" fits well here, and the example "what's the problem?" is very close to how "problem" is used here.

Sense 1 (a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved) is also close, but sense 3 with the synonym "trouble" seems to better fit this context where "problem" refers to the social issue at hand.

Actually, let me think more carefully. "The extent of the problem" - this is referring to how widespread the difficulty is. Both sense 1 and sense 3 could work.

Sense 3: "a source of difficulty" - synonyms: trouble - "one trouble after another delayed the job; what's the problem?"
Sense 1: "a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved" - synonyms: job - "she and her husband are having problems; it is always a job to contact him"

In the context, the "problem" is the situation where women are excluded from the Ancient Society of College Youths. This is a source of difficulty/trouble. The example "what's the problem?" from sense 3 is very similar to how we might use the word here - asking about or referring to the troublesome situation.

Sense 1 with "job" as a synonym seems more like "it's a job to do something" - a task or chore that needs to be done. This doesn't fit as well.

I think sense 3 is the best fit - "a source of difficulty" with the synonym "trouble". The problem here is the troublesome situation of women being excluded.
