reasoning_content:
The context is about US banks repaying "state support" from the TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) fund. This is financial support - money provided by the government to banks during the financial crisis.

Looking at the candidate senses:

1. "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities" - this is about providing financial support
6. "the financial means whereby one lives" - livelihood
11. "financial resources provided to make some project possible" - financial support, funding, backing

The context is about banks repaying financial support (money) they received from the government. This is clearly about financial resources provided.

Sense 11 specifically mentions "financial resources provided to make some project possible" with synonyms "financial support, funding, backing, financial backing" - this fits perfectly with the context of TARP funds being repaid.

Sense 1 is about the activity of providing support, which is more about the act.
Sense 11 is about the financial resources themselves, which is what the banks are repaying.

The banks are repaying "the support" - meaning the money/financial resources they received. This is sense 11.

The context is about US banks repaying state support, TARP fund, Bank of America, Citigroup, etc. The word "bank" in "bank protection fund TARP" refers to a financial institution context. Let me look at the candidates:

- sense 2: "a financial institution that accepts deposits and channels the money into lending activities" - this fits the context of banking/financial institutions repaying TARP funds.
- sense 9: "a building in which the business of banking transacted" - this is about the physical building.

The phrase "bank protection fund TARP" refers to the Troubled Asset Relief Program, which is a fund related to the banking/financial industry. Here "bank" is used as an adjective modifying "protection fund," referring to the banking sector/financial institutions. This best matches sense 2, which is about a financial institution.

reasoning_content:
The context is about Bank of America repaying support from a "bank protection fund TARP" (Troubled Asset Relief Program). TARP is a government fund to protect/bail out banks during the financial crisis. The word "protection" here refers to a fund designed to protect banks (financial protection/bailout).

Looking at the senses:
- Sense 3: "defense against financial failure; financial independence" with synonyms "security" - this seems most relevant as TARP is a financial protection mechanism against financial failure.
- Sense 6: "the imposition of duties or quotas on imports" - trade protection, not relevant.
- Sense 7: "payment extorted by gangsters" - not relevant.
- Sense 1: "the activity of protecting someone or something" - general protection.
- Sense 4: "the condition of being protected" - more about shelter.

The context is about a financial fund (TARP) that provides financial protection/support to banks. Sense 3 specifically mentions "defense against financial failure" which fits the context of a bank protection fund designed to prevent financial failure.

However, one could also argue sense 1 (the activity of protecting) since TARP's purpose is to protect banks. But sense 3 is more specific to financial contexts.

Actually, let me reconsider. The "bank protection fund" - here "protection" modifies "fund" and the fund is for protecting banks. The sense 3 is about "defense against financial failure" - which is exactly what TARP was designed to do for banks. The examples mention "pension gave him security" and "insurance provided protection against loss of wages" - these are financial protection examples.

I'll go with sense 3.

reasoning_content:
The context mentions "bank protection fund TARP" - TARP stands for Troubled Asset Relief Program, which was a reserve of money set aside by the government to support banks. The word "fund" here refers to a reserve of money set aside for a specific purpose.

Sense 1: "a reserve of money set aside for some purpose" - This fits perfectly with TARP, which was a monetary fund set aside to rescue banks.

Sense 2: "a supply of something available for future use" - This is more general, referring to a store or stock of something, not specifically money.

Sense 3: "a financial institution that sells shares to individuals and invests in securities" - This refers to investment companies/funds, which doesn't fit the context.

The best match is sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the state support."

Here "reports" refers to news reports or accounts from CNBC (a news broadcaster). Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. a written document describing the findings of some individual or group - this is more like a study or formal report
2. the act of informing by verbal report - account, with example "he heard reports that they were causing trouble"
3. a short account of the news - news report, story, account, write up - "the report of his speech; the story was on the 11 o'clock news"

Sense 3 fits best because CNBC is a news broadcaster, and "reports from CNBC" would be news reports. The phrase "according to reports" is commonly used with news media sources.

Sense 2 could also fit with "he heard reports that they were causing trouble" - but the example emphasizes verbal reports, and the source is verbal. Here CNBC is a broadcaster, so it could be either, but sense 3 is more specific to news accounts.

Actually, let me reconsider. "According to reports from US broadcaster CNBC" - CNBC produces news reports, so sense 3 "a short account of the news" with "news report" as a synonym fits very well. The example "the story was on the 11 o'clock news" is similar to "reports from US broadcaster CNBC."

Sense 2 is about the act of informing by verbal report, which is more about verbal communication specifically.

Sense 3 is the best match because CNBC is explicitly a news broadcaster, and "reports from CNBC" = "news reports from CNBC."

reasoning_content:
The target word "state" appears in the context: "US banks repay state support" and "Citigroup is also planning to repay the state support."

Here, "state support" refers to financial support provided by the government (the state). The context discusses banks repaying support from TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program), which was a government program. So "state" here refers to the government as an entity providing financial support.

Looking at the candidate senses:
- Sense 3: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state" - this fits well, as "state" here refers to the government providing financial support.
- Sense 4: "a politically organized body of people under a single government" - this is more about the nation/country as a whole.
- Sense 1: "the territory occupied by one of the constituent administrative districts of a nation" - this is about a US state like Texas or California, which doesn't fit.

The phrase "state support" in the context of TARP and government bailouts refers to support from the government. Sense 3 ("the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state") is the best fit because it specifically refers to the government as an actor providing support.

Sense 4 could also work, but sense 3 is more specific to the government as an entity that provides support, which is exactly what's happening here.

I'll go with sense 3.

The context is about US banks repaying state support, specifically referring to TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) funds. The word "support" here refers to financial assistance/money provided by the state to the banks.

Let me analyze the candidate senses:

1. sense 1: "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities" - This is about the activity of providing financial support.
2. sense 2: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of" - This is about aiding/political support.
3. sense 3: "something providing immaterial assistance" - immaterial assistance.
4. sense 4: military support/reinforcement.
5. sense 5: documentary validation.
6. sense 6: "the financial means whereby one lives" - livelihood, keep.
7. sense 7: supporting structure.
8. sense 8: bearing weight/strengthening.
9. sense 9: musical accompaniment.
10. sense 10: device bearing weight.
11. sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible" - financial support, funding, backing.

The context mentions repaying "state support" and "the support from the bank protection fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion" and "the state support" and "the acceptance of the money." This is clearly about financial resources provided by the state to the banks.

Sense 11 explicitly mentions "financial resources provided to make some project possible" with synonyms "financial support, funding, backing, financial backing" - this matches perfectly with TARP funds.

Sense 1 is about the activity of providing money, but sense 11 is about the financial resources themselves.

The banks are repaying the money they received, so "support" here refers to the financial resources (the TARP money), not the activity of providing it. Sense 11 is the best match.

reasoning_content:
The context is about banks repaying state support to free themselves from restrictions that come with accepting government money. These restrictions include limits on manager bonuses and paying high charges. These are regulatory limitations imposed as conditions for receiving the funds.

Let me analyze the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=restriction%1:09:00:: | definition=a principle that limits the extent of something | synonyms=limitation | examples:I am willing to accept certain restrictions on my movements
2. sense_key=restriction%1:04:00:: | definition=an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation) | synonyms=limitation
3. sense_key=restriction%1:04:01:: | definition=the act of keeping something within specified bounds (by force if necessary) | synonyms=confinement | examples:the restriction of the infection to a focal area

The restrictions here are regulatory conditions/limits imposed by the government (TARP) on banks that accept state support. These are rules/regulations that limit what the banks can do (like limits on bonuses).

Sense 1 is about a principle that limits the extent of something - this could fit as the restrictions are principles/rules.
Sense 2 is about an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation) - this fits well because these are regulatory restrictions imposed as conditions.
Sense 3 is about confinement/keeping within bounds by force - doesn't fit well.

Between sense 1 and sense 2: The restrictions here are specific regulatory conditions attached to accepting TARP money. Sense 2 mentions "as by regulation" which fits the regulatory nature of these restrictions. However, sense 1 talks about "a principle that limits the extent of something" which could also describe these bonus limits and charge limits.

Looking more carefully: The restrictions are described as things "going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money" - these are conditions/rules/regulations. Sense 2 specifically mentions "as by regulation" which aligns with the regulatory nature of TARP restrictions.

Actually, sense 1 with "a principle that limits the extent of something" could also work - the restrictions are principles/rules that limit what banks can do.

But sense 2 is more specifically about the act of limiting by regulation, which matches the context of government-imposed regulatory restrictions on banks receiving TARP funds.

I'll go with sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The context talks about banks repaying state support and wanting to free themselves from restrictions that come with the "acceptance" of money. Here, acceptance refers to the act of taking/receiving the money. Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. Mental attitude that something is believable - not this
2. Act of accepting with approval; favorable reception - somewhat related but more about approval
3. State of being acceptable and accepted - not this
4. Contract law - consent to terms of an offer - not quite
5. Banking: a time draft - not this
6. Disposition to tolerate - not this
7. The act of taking something that is offered - this fits well, as the banks are taking/receiving the money from the state

Sense 7 seems best: "the act of taking something that is offered" - the banks accepted (took) the money, and now there are restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money.

Actually, let me reconsider. Sense 2 is about "the act of accepting with approval; favorable reception" with synonyms adoption, acceptation, espousal. The example is "its adoption by society; the proposal found wide acceptance."

Sense 7 is about "the act of taking something that is offered" with example "her acceptance of the gift encouraged him; he anticipated their acceptance of his offer."

In the context, the banks "accepted" the money (took it), and there are restrictions going with the acceptance. This is about the act of taking/receiving the offered support. Sense 7 fits best.

reasoning_content:
The context discusses banks repaying state support in the form of TARP funds - specifically $45 billion. The word "money" here refers to the funds/financial support received from the state, which functions as a medium of exchange.

Let me look at the candidate senses:
1. "the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender" - this is about money as a general medium of exchange
2. "wealth reckoned in terms of money" - this is about money as wealth/assets
3. "the official currency issued by a government or national bank" - this is about official currency

The context is about USD 45 billion that was given as state support and needs to be repaid. This is the money/funds themselves as a medium of exchange - the actual currency/funds that were provided. Sense 1 fits best because it's the most common medium of exchange and what banks received and are repaying. The money here isn't about wealth in general (sense 2), nor specifically about official currency being exchanged (sense 3). It's about the funds themselves.

reasoning_content:
The context is about US banks repaying state support. The relevant sentence is: "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, "charges" refers to fees or prices that banks have to pay. This is the sense of "the price charged for some article or service" - sense 3, or possibly sense 8 "financial liabilities (such as a tax)" or sense 11 "request for payment of a debt" / "billing".

In the context of banking, "charges" typically refers to fees that banks charge their customers. The context mentions "the paying of high charges" as a restriction. This is about fees/costs associated with the support money.

Looking at sense 3: "the price charged for some article or service" - examples: "the admission charge". This fits well with bank charges/fees.

Sense 8: "financial liabilities (such as a tax)" - examples: "the charges against the estate". This is more about liabilities.

Sense 11: "request for payment of a debt" - examples: "they submitted their charges at the end of each month". This is more about billing.

The context is about banks being restricted from paying high charges. In banking, "charges" typically means fees - the price charged for services. Sense 3 seems most appropriate.

Actually, let me reconsider. The context says "the paying of high charges" - this could mean the bank paying high fees/interest on the TARP support. So the "charges" here are the financial costs (like interest or fees) that the bank has to pay as a condition of receiving the support.

Sense 3 "the price charged for some article or service" fits well here. In banking context, "charges" = fees.

I'll go with sense 3.

Target lemma: rest

Context:
The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles. On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the bank protection fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go. And, according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the state support. 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. Bank of America had raised some USD 19 billion from investors through convertible loans. The <t>rest</t> of the amount was taken from its own kitty, which was well filled through the sale of business units. Bank head Kenneth Lewis extended his express thanks to the American taxpayer on Wednesday evening: The cash injection helped over a very difficult time.

The target word is "amount" in the context: "The rest of the amount was taken from its own kitty..."

Looking at the context, the previous sentence says "Bank of America had raised some USD 19 billion from investors through convertible loans. The rest of the amount was taken from its own kitty..."

The "amount" here refers to the total sum of money (USD 45 billion) that needed to be repaid. The "rest of the amount" refers to the remaining sum of money (USD 45 billion - USD 19 billion = USD 26 billion) that was taken from their own funds.

This is clearly referring to a quantity of money. Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=amount%1:21:00:: | definition=a quantity of money | synonyms=sum, sum of money, amount of money
2. sense_key=amount%1:07:00:: | definition=the relative magnitude of something with reference to a criterion
3. sense_key=amount%1:03:00:: | definition=how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify | synonyms=measure, quantity
4. sense_key=amount%1:09:00:: | definition=a quantity obtained by the addition of a group of numbers | synonyms=sum, total

The context is about money - specifically USD billions being repaid. So sense 1 (a quantity of money) seems most appropriate.

Wait, let me reconsider. Sense 4 talks about "a quantity obtained by the addition of a group of numbers" with synonyms "sum, total". The "amount" here is indeed the total sum of money. But sense 1 is specifically about money.

Actually, in this context, "the amount" is referring to a specific quantity of money (the total USD 45 billion to be repaid, minus the USD 19 billion raised from investors). This is clearly a monetary amount.

Sense 1 is "a quantity of money" which directly matches.

The answer is sense 1.

The target word "amount" in context: "The rest of the amount was taken from its own kitty, which was well filled through the sale of business units."

The context is about Bank of America repaying USD 45 billion. The "amount" refers to the remaining sum of money that was not raised from investors (USD 19 billion) but instead taken from the bank's own funds. This refers to a quantity of money.

Sense 1: "a quantity of money" - synonyms: sum, sum of money, amount of money. Examples: "he borrowed a large sum; the amount he had in cash was insufficient"

Sense 4: "a quantity obtained by the addition of a group of numbers" - synonyms: sum, total

The rest of the amount here refers to the remaining money (45 billion - 19 billion = 26 billion). It's a quantity of money, which fits sense 1 best.

The context is about Bank of America raising money through the "sale of business units." This refers to a particular instance of selling business units - a specific transaction/instance of selling.

Let me consider the options:
1. "a particular instance of selling" - This fits well because it's referring to a specific sale of business units that filled the bank's reserves.
2. "the general activity of selling" - This is more general, not about a specific instance.
3. "an occasion (usually brief) for buying at specially reduced prices" - This is about discount sales, not relevant.
4. "the state of being purchasable" - Not relevant here.
5. "an agreement (or contract) in which property is transferred" - This is about the contract itself.

The context says "the sale of business units" which refers to a specific instance/act of selling business units. Sense 1 fits best.

The target word "Bank" appears in the context: "<t>Bank</t> head Kenneth Lewis extended his express thanks to the American taxpayer on Wednesday evening"

This is clearly referring to Bank of America, which is a financial institution. The phrase "Bank head" means the head/CEO of the bank (financial institution).

Looking at the candidate senses:
- Sense 2: "a financial institution that accepts deposits and channels the money into lending activities" - This is the most appropriate sense as it refers to the institution itself.

The context is about a financial institution (Bank of America) and its CEO Kenneth Lewis. The word "Bank" here is used as a proper noun referring to the financial institution.

The answer is sense index 2.

The user wants me to choose the best sense for "bank" in the given context. Let me analyze:

The context is about financial institutions, Citigroup, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, capital markets, etc. The target sentence is: "The bank overstretched at the height of the financial crisis by taking over the investment bank Merrill Lynch."

This is clearly referring to a financial institution. Looking at the candidates:
- Sense 2: "a financial institution that accepts deposits and channels the money into lending activities" - this fits perfectly
- Sense 9: "a building in which the business of banking transacted" - this is about the building, not the institution itself

The reference is to Bank of America (mentioned in the previous sentence) and the institution itself, not the building. So sense 2 is the best match.

1. sense_key=height%1:07:00:: - the vertical dimension of extension; distance from the base of something to the top (tallness) - this is about physical height
2. sense_key=height%1:26:00:: - the highest level or degree attainable; the highest stage of development (acme, elevation, peak, pinnacle, summit, superlative) - this is about the peak/climax
3. sense_key=height%1:07:01:: - (of a standing person) the distance from head to foot (stature) - this is about a person's height
4. sense_key=height%1:07:02:: - elevation especially above sea level (altitude) - this is about altitude

The phrase "at the height of the financial crisis" clearly means "at the peak/climax" of the crisis, which corresponds to sense 2.
