The sentence is: "Some of the countries most vulnerable to the <t>impact</t> of climate change indicated they would continue to push for a legally binding treaty in Copenhagen, although most of the major participants say the talks will produce a political deal at best."

The word "impact" is used in the context of "the impact of climate change".
This means the strong effect or forceful consequence of climate change.

Let's look at the senses:
1. the striking of one body against another (physical impact)
2. a forceful consequence; a strong effect (e.g., the book had an important impact on my thinking)
3. influencing strongly (impingement)
4. the violent interaction of individuals or groups entering into combat

Sense 2 fits perfectly: "a forceful consequence; a strong effect". The impact of climate change refers to its strong effects/consequences.

Let's double check.
"impact of climate change" -> effect of climate change.
Sense 2: definition=a forceful consequence; a strong effect.

Therefore, the correct sense is 2.

reasoning_content:
The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "negotiation" used in the given sentence.
The sentence is: "Artur Runge-Metzger, who heads international climate <t>negotiations</t> on behalf of the European Commission..."

Sense 1: a discussion intended to produce an agreement (e.g., the buyout negotiation lasted several days)
Sense 2: the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

In the context of "international climate negotiations", it refers to the discussions intended to produce an agreement (like the Paris Agreement, etc.). Wait, let's look at WordNet senses for "negotiation".
Sense 1: negotiation, dialogue, talks - a discussion intended to produce an agreement; "the buyout negotiation lasted several days"; "negotiations aimed at a peaceful settlement"
Sense 2: negotiation - the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

"Heads international climate negotiations" -> "negotiations" here is plural, referring to the discussions/talks.
Let's check the examples. "the buyout negotiation lasted several days" -> Sense 1.
"international climate negotiations" -> talks, discussions. Sense 1.

Wait, is "heads international climate negotiations" referring to the activity (Sense 2) or the discussions (Sense 1)?
Usually, "negotiations" in plural refers to the discussions (Sense 1).
Let's consider WordNet:
negotiation (a discussion intended to produce an agreement) "the buyout negotiation lasted several days"; "negotiations aimed at a peaceful settlement"
negotiation (the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms)

"Heads international climate negotiations" -> talks. Sense 1.

Let's double check.
Sense 1: a discussion intended to produce an agreement
Sense 2: the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

"heads international climate negotiations" -> he is the head of the talks/discussions. Sense 1.

I will output 1.

reasoning_content:
The sentence uses the word "pressure" in the context of "political pressure".
"put political pressure on the entire political process"
This means applying a force that compels action.
Let's check the senses:
1. physical force applied to a unit area
2. a force that compels (e.g., the public brought pressure to bear on the government)
3. the act of pressing
4. the state of demanding notice or attention
5. somatic sensation

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

Sentence: Artur Runge-Metzger, who heads international climate negotiations on behalf of the European Commission, said the push by small island nations has "put political pressure on the entire political <t>process</t>," in part because they are now unified and demanding action from emerging economies such as China and India.

Senses:
1. definition=a particular course of action intended to achieve a result | examples=the procedure of obtaining a driver's license
2. definition=(psychology) the performance of some composite cognitive activity; an operation that affects mental contents | examples=the process of thinking
3. definition=a writ issued by authority of law; usually compels the defendant's attendance in a civil suit; failure to appear results in a default judgment against the defendant
4. definition=a mental process that you are not directly aware of | examples=the process of denial
5. definition=a natural prolongation or projection from a part of an organism either animal or plant | examples=a bony process
6. definition=a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states | examples=events now in process

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Artur Runge-Metzger, who heads international climate negotiations on behalf of the European Commission, said the push by small island nations has "put political pressure on the entire political <t>process</t>," in part because they are now unified and demanding action from emerging economies such as China and India."

The word "process" here refers to the political process, which is a sustained phenomenon or a series of actions/events marked by gradual changes or a course of events (like negotiations, policy making).
Let's look at the senses:
1. a particular course of action intended to achieve a result (procedure)
2. (psychology) cognitive activity
3. a writ issued by authority of law
4. a mental process
5. a natural prolongation (anatomy)
6. a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states (events now in process)

Wait, "political process" usually refers to the series of actions, events, or the sustained phenomenon of political activities and negotiations.
Let's re-read sense 1: "a particular course of action intended to achieve a result" (e.g., procedure).
Sense 6: "a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states" (e.g., events now in process).
Actually, WordNet defines "process" (noun):
1. procedure (a particular course of action intended to achieve a result) "the procedure of obtaining a driver's license"; "it was a process of trial and error"
2. cognitive operation (psychology)
3. summons / writ
4. unconscious process
5. outgrowth / appendage
6. process, physical process (a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states) "events now in process"; "the process of calcification begins later for boys than for girls"; "a process of change"

In "political process", is it sense 1 or sense 6?
"the entire political process" -> the series of events, negotiations, etc.
Wait, "process of trial and error", "procedure".
Let's consider "political process". It's often considered a sustained phenomenon or a series of states (sense 6) or a course of action (sense 1).
Wait, "political process" usually falls under sense 6 (a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states) or sense 1?
Let's check WordNet examples for sense 6: "events now in process", "the process of calcification", "a process of change".
What about "the political process"? It's the ongoing series of political events and activities. So sense 6.
Wait, could it be sense 1? "a particular course of action intended to achieve a result". The political process isn't necessarily a single course of action intended to achieve a result, but rather the ongoing system of political activities.
Let's check if there's a better fit.
Actually, in WordNet, "process" as in "the political process" or "the democratic process" is often mapped to sense 6 (a sustained phenomenon...).
Wait, another option: "process" as in "due process" (legal). Not here.
Let's look at the phrasing: "entire political process".
Is it 6? Yes, "a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states".
Let's double check. Sense 1: "the procedure of obtaining a driver's license".
Sense 6: "events now in process".
I will guess 6.

Wait, looking at some WordNet sense mappings for "political process":
Often "process" in "political process" is sense 6. Let's think if it could be 1. "a particular course of action intended to achieve a result". The negotiations are a process. "international climate negotiations... political process". Negotiations are a sustained phenomenon marked by gradual changes. So 6.

Let's review the exact WordNet definitions:
Sense 1: procedure, process (a particular course of action intended to achieve a result) "the procedure of obtaining a driver's license"; "it was a process of trial and error"
Sense 6: process, physical process (a sustained phenomenon or one marked by gradual changes through a series of states) "events now in process"; "the process of calcification begins later for boys than for girls"; "a process of change"

"the entire political process" -> the ongoing phenomenon of politics. Sense 6.
I'll output 6.
Wait, let me just confirm. Is "political process" an abstract process (Sense 6)? Yes.
I am confident in 6.
Let me reconsider 1. Could "process" here mean "procedure"? No, "political procedure" doesn't make as much sense as "political process" meaning the ongoing events.
Therefore, 6.
I'll output 6.

Sentence: Artur Runge-Metzger, who heads international climate negotiations on behalf of the European Commission, said the push by small island nations has "put political pressure on the entire political process," in part because they are now unified and demanding <t>action</t> from emerging economies such as China and India.

Senses:
1. definition=something done (usually as opposed to something said) | examples=there were stories of murders and other unnatural actions
2. definition=the state of being active | examples=his sphere of activity
3. definition=a military engagement | examples=he saw action in Korea
4. definition=a process existing in or produced by nature (rather than by the intent of human beings) | examples=the action of natural forces

6. definition=the trait of being active and energetic and forceful | examples=a man of action
7. definition=the operating part that transmits power to a mechanism | examples=the piano had a very stiff action
8. definition=a judicial proceeding brought by one party against another; one party prosecutes another for a wrong done or for protection of a right or for prevention of a wrong
9. definition=an act by a government body or supranational organization | examples=recent federal action undermined the segregationist position
10. definition=the most important or interesting work or activity in a specific area or field | examples=the action is no longer in technology stocks but in municipal bonds

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Artur Runge-Metzger, who heads international climate negotiations on behalf of the European Commission, said the push by small island nations has "put political pressure on the entire political process," in part because they are now unified and demanding <t>action</t> from emerging economies such as China and India."

The word "action" here refers to something done, specifically actions/policies/measures taken by emerging economies regarding climate change.
Wait, let's look at the senses.
1. something done (usually as opposed to something said)
2. the state of being active
3. a military engagement
4. a process existing in or produced by nature
5. the series of events that form a plot
6. the trait of being active and energetic and forceful
7. the operating part that transmits power to a mechanism
8. a judicial proceeding
9. an act by a government body or supranational organization
10. the most important or interesting work or activity

Is it 1 or 9?
"demanding action from emerging economies such as China and India."
"Action" here means taking steps, doing something (e.g., reducing emissions).
Sense 1: "something done (usually as opposed to something said)". Examples: "there were stories of murders and other unnatural actions".
Sense 9: "an act by a government body or supranational organization". Examples: "recent federal action undermined the segregationist position".

Here, "emerging economies such as China and India" refers to the countries/governments. Demanding action from them means demanding that they do something (take measures).
Is it Sense 1 or Sense 9?
Usually, "demanding action" in the context of climate change refers to taking action (doing something). Let's check WordNet senses for "action".
Sense 1: action, actus reus, action (something done (usually as opposed to something said)) "there were stories of murders and other unnatural actions"
Sense 9: action (an act by a government body or supranational organization) "recent federal action undermined the segregationist position"

In "demanding action", "action" is an uncountable noun or a general concept of doing something. "Take action" -> Sense 1.
Wait, "demanding action" -> "action" as in "doing something".
Let's consider Sense 1. "something done".
Let's consider Sense 9. "an act by a government body". "recent federal action". Here "action" is a specific act or policy.
In the sentence, "demanding action" means demanding that they do something (take action). This aligns more with Sense 1 (the general concept of doing something, as opposed to just talking). "put political pressure... demanding action" (i.e. not just words, but action).
Therefore, Sense 1 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check.
"action"
1. something done
2. state of being active
3. military
4. natural process
5. plot
6. trait
7. mechanism
8. legal
9. government act
10. important work

"demanding action" -> they want them to *do* something, not just say something. This perfectly contrasts with "something said", which is the core of Sense 1's definition ("usually as opposed to something said"). The small island nations are pushing and demanding *action* (deeds, not just words).
So Sense 1 is correct.
I will return 1.
End of thought.

Actually, "took on a new urgency" usually maps to Sense 2 (pressing importance) or Sense 1. Let's check typical usages.
"the urgency of the situation" -> Sense 2.

Let's consider Sense 2: pressing importance requiring speedy action.
Sense 1: the state of being urgent; an earnest and insistent necessity.
Often, "take on urgency" implies gaining pressing importance. Let's choose 2. Wait, could it be 1?
Looking at similar examples in WordNet:
Sense 2: "the urgency of his need"
Sense 1: no examples given in the prompt, but "the state of being urgent".
Let's think if "urgency" as an attribute of the talks is Sense 2. "The talks took on new urgency" -> The talks became more pressing/important. Pressing importance requiring speedy action.

Wait, is "took on new urgency" Sense 2?
Let's check the exact WordNet definition of Sense 2: "pressing importance requiring speedy action".
Sense 1: "the state of being urgent; an earnest and insistent necessity".
If the talks took on new urgency, they took on new pressing importance. Sense 2 fits best.

Let me double check Sense 1 vs Sense 2.
Sense 1: state of being urgent.
Sense 2: pressing importance.
"take on urgency" -> become urgent -> acquire pressing importance. Sense 2.
I will return 2.
Wait, let me just review if it could be 1. "The state of being urgent".
I'll output 2.
Actually, in the WiC dataset or similar WordNet disambiguation tasks, "take on a new urgency" is often Sense 2.
Let me reconsider. I'll output 2.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The talks took on new urgency as delegates focused on the <t>fact</t> that they must resolve most of the outstanding issues before the heads of government arrive to strike a deal."

Senses:
1. a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred
2. a statement or assertion of verified information about something that is the case or has happened
3. an event known to have happened or something known to have existed
4. a concept whose truth can be proved

Let's look at the phrasing: "focused on the fact that they must resolve..."
Here, "fact" is used to mean a state of affairs, a circumstance that exists (the circumstance being that they must resolve most of the outstanding issues).
Wait, "fact that [clause]" usually aligns with sense 1: "a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred" or sense 3 "something known to have existed"?
Actually, WordNet senses for "fact":
1. fact (a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred) "first you must collect all the facts of the case"
2. fact (a statement or assertion of verified information about something that is the case or has happened) "he supported his argument with an impressive array of facts"
3. fact (an event known to have happened or something known to have existed) "your fears have no basis in fact"
4. fact (a concept whose truth can be proved) "scientific hypotheses are not facts"

In the sentence, "the fact that they must resolve..." refers to a circumstance that exists (the necessity to resolve issues).
Sense 1: "a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred".
Let's consider Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
Sense 1 is often used for "the facts of the case", "the fact that...".
Wait, WordNet's "fact" sense 1 includes "circumstances that exist". The clause "that they must resolve..." describes a circumstance that exists.
Let's check if there's a better fit.
Could it be 1? Yes.

Wait, looking at standard WordNet examples for Sense 1: "first you must collect all the facts of the case".
Sense 3: "your fears have no basis in fact".
"the fact that..." is typically Sense 1. Let's think if Sense 1 is the standard mapping for "the fact that [proposition]".
Yes, "a piece of information about circumstances that exist" -> "the fact that..."

Let's double check.
"focused on the fact that they must resolve..." -> Circumstance that exists. So Sense 1.

Is it possible it's Sense 1? Yes.
Let's review the exact WordNet definitions.
Noun:
1. fact (a piece of information about circumstances that exist or events that have occurred) "first you must collect all the facts of the case"
2. fact (a statement or assertion of verified information about something that is the case or has happened) "he supported his argument with an impressive array of facts"
3. fact (an event known to have happened or something known to have existed) "your fears have no basis in fact"
4. fact (a concept whose truth can be proved) "scientific hypotheses are not facts"

"the fact that they must resolve..." -> refers to a circumstance that exists. Therefore, Sense 1.

Let's confirm.
"fact that" -> 1.
I will return 1.

The Bella Center is a large convention center in Copenhagen. The officials "raced through the Bella Center's halls".
The word "halls" here refers to the interior passages or corridors, or perhaps the large rooms/areas of the convention center.
Let's look at the senses:
1. an interior passage or corridor onto which rooms open
2. a large entrance or reception room or area
3. a large room for gatherings or entertainment
13. a large building for meetings or entertainment

Wait, "raced through the Bella Center's halls". Usually, "halls" of a convention center or building refers to the corridors or passageways (Sense 1), or maybe the exhibition halls (Sense 3 or 13). But "raced through the halls" strongly implies corridors/passages.
Let's check WordNet senses for "hall":
1. hall, hallway (an interior passage or corridor onto which rooms open) "the elevators were at the end of the hall"
2. hall (a large entrance or reception room or area)
3. hall (a large room for gatherings or entertainment) "lecture hall"; "concert hall"
4. hall, dorm, dormitory, residence hall, student residence (a college or university building containing living quarters for students)
5. hall (the large room of a manor or castle)
6. Hall (English writer...)
7. Hall (US child psychologist...)
8. Hall (US chemist...)
9. Hall (US explorer...)
10. Hall (US astronomer...)
11. hall, mansion, manse, mansion house, residence (a large and imposing house)
12. hall (a large building used by a college or university for teaching or research) "halls of learning"
13. hall (a large building for meetings or entertainment)

In the context of "raced through the Bella Center's halls", "halls" is plural. "raced through the halls" -> corridors/passages.
Wait, "Bella Center" is a convention center. It has exhibition halls, but "raced through the halls" usually means the corridors.
Let's consider Sense 1: "an interior passage or corridor". Plural: halls. "raced through the halls".
Could it be Sense 1? Yes.

Let's double check if there's any other sense. "halls" as in corridors. "the elevators were at the end of the hall".
Sentence: "...raced through the Bella Center's halls to closed-door meetings..."
This fits Sense 1 perfectly.

Let's review Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
Sense 3: "a large room for gatherings or entertainment".
If they raced through the large rooms, it would be "exhibition halls". But "halls" by itself in a building usually means corridors. "raced through the halls" -> hallways.
Therefore, Sense 1 is the most appropriate.
I will output 1.

The word is "meetings".
The context is "closed-door meetings and news conferences" involving high-level officials.
This refers to a formally arranged gathering.
Let's check the senses:
1. definition=a formally arranged gathering | examples=next year the meeting will be in Chicago
2. definition=a small informal social gathering | examples=there was an informal meeting in my living room
3. definition=a casual or unexpected convergence | examples=he still remembers their meeting in Paris
4. definition=the social act of assembling for some common purpose | examples=his meeting with the salesmen was the high point of his day
5. definition=the act of joining together as one | examples=the merging of the two groups occurred quickly
6. definition=a place where things merge or flow together (especially rivers) | examples=Pittsburgh is located at the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers

Sense 1 fits best: "a formally arranged gathering". The officials are going to closed-door meetings (formal gatherings).
Let's double check. Sense 1 is the standard WordNet sense for formal meetings (e.g., business, diplomatic).
Sense 4 is "the social act of assembling" (meeting as an event/action, but usually "meeting" as a countable noun for a gathering is Sense 1). Here it's plural "meetings", referring to the gatherings themselves.
Therefore, Sense 1.

2. definition=an assertion that something is true or factual | examples=his claim that he was innocent
3. definition=demand for something as rightful or due | examples=they struck in support of their claim for a shorter work day
4. definition=an informal right to something | examples=his claim on her attentions
5. definition=an established or recognized right | examples=a strong legal claim to the property
6. definition=a demand especially in the phrase | examples=the call of duty

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "High-level officials such as Indian environment minister Jairam Ramesh and the Chinese vice minister stepped off planes and raced through the Bella Center's halls to closed-door meetings and news conferences so they could stake out <t>claims</t> that will be arbitrated over the next week."

Senses of "claim":
1. an assertion of a right (as to money or property)
2. an assertion that something is true or factual
3. demand for something as rightful or due
4. an informal right to something
5. an established or recognized right
6. a demand especially in the phrase

In the context of the sentence, officials are staking out "claims" that will be "arbitrated". This refers to asserting a right to something (like territory, emissions rights, funding, etc. in the context of climate change negotiations, since it mentions environment ministers and Bella Center which hosted COP15).
"stake out claims" -> asserting a right to something.
Sense 1: "an assertion of a right (as to money or property)"
Wait, could it be 1 or 3?
"stake a claim" usually means to assert a right to something.
Let's look at WordNet senses for "claim":
1. claim, demand (an assertion of a right (as to money or property)) "his claim asked for damages"
2. claim (an assertion that something is true or factual) "his claim that he was innocent"; "claim of a right" -> wait.
3. demand, claim (demand for something as rightful or due) "they struck in support of their claim for a shorter work day"
4. claim (an informal right to something) "his claim on her attentions"
5. claim (an established or recognized right) "a strong legal claim to the property"; "he proved his claim to the estate"
6. call, claim (a demand especially in the phrase "the call of duty")

"stake out claims" -> "stake a claim" means to assert a right to something.
Is it Sense 1? "an assertion of a right (as to money or property)"
Let's check "stake out claims that will be arbitrated". Arbitration usually deals with assertions of rights (Sense 1) or demands (Sense 3).
But "stake a claim" is an idiom. In WordNet, "stake" as a verb has "stake, claim (assert a right to)" but here "claim" is a noun.
Noun "claim":
Sense 1: an assertion of a right (as to money or property).
Let's consider Sense 1 vs Sense 5. Sense 5 is "an established or recognized right". Here they are staking out claims that will be arbitrated, so it's not yet established. Thus Sense 1.

Let's double check.
"stake out claims" -> assertion of a right.
Sense 1 fits best.

Are there other examples of "stake out claims"?
"stake a claim" -> assert a right.
I will output 1.

This refers to a period of seven consecutive days starting from the current time.
Sense 1: any period of seven consecutive days.

Let's double check.
"any period of seven consecutive days" - fits "the next week" (the next 7 days).

"The sheer sprawl of the gathering" -> refers to the physical group of people.
Therefore, Sense 1.
Let's double check. "where 13,000 people move in and out..." - this describes the group of people.
Sense 1: a group of persons together in one place.
Number: 1.

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

Sentence: The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each <t>day</t>, guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the countries they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge.

Senses:
1. definition=time for Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis | examples=two days later they left
2. definition=some point or period in time | examples=it should arrive any day now

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each <t>day</t>, guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the countries they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge."

The word is "day".
It is used in the phrase "each day", referring to a 24-hour period, or the time for Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis.
Let's check the senses:
1. time for Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis (e.g., two days later they left) -> "each day" fits this.
2. some point or period in time (e.g., it should arrive any day now)
3. a day assigned to a particular purpose (e.g., Mother's Day)
4. the time after sunrise and before sunset (e.g., dawn turned night into day)
5. recurring hours when you are not sleeping (e.g., my day began early)

"each day" means every 24-hour period. So sense 1 is the best fit.

Let's double check.
"each day" = every 24 hours = every rotation of the Earth.
Sense 1: time for Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis.

Yes, sense 1.

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

Sentence: The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each day, guitar-playing activists put on nightly <t>shows</t> mocking the countries they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of publicly exhibiting or entertaining | examples=a remarkable show of skill
2. definition=something intended to communicate a particular impression | examples=made a display of strength
3. definition=a social event involving a public performance or entertainment | examples=they wanted to see some of the shows on Broadway
4. definition=pretending that something is the case in order to make a good impression | examples=they try to keep up appearances

reasoning_content:
The sentence describes "guitar-playing activists put on nightly <t>shows</t> mocking the countries...".
The word is "shows".
Sense 1: the act of publicly exhibiting or entertaining (e.g., a remarkable show of skill).
Sense 2: something intended to communicate a particular impression (e.g., made a display of strength).
Sense 3: a social event involving a public performance or entertainment (e.g., they wanted to see some of the shows on Broadway).
Sense 4: pretending that something is the case...

Wait, the activists "put on nightly shows". This refers to performances, like a theatrical or musical performance.
Sense 3: "a social event involving a public performance or entertainment" -> "they wanted to see some of the shows on Broadway".
Let's check Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
Sense 1: "the act of publicly exhibiting or entertaining" (often uncountable or refers to the act itself, e.g., "a show of force", "a show of skill"). Wait, WordNet sense for "show, display" (the act of publicly exhibiting or entertaining) vs "show" (a social event involving a public performance or entertainment).
Actually, "put on nightly shows" -> "shows" as in performances. Plural "shows" usually aligns with Sense 3 (a social event involving a public performance or entertainment, e.g., Broadway shows).
Let's verify WordNet senses for "show":
1. show, display (the act of publicly exhibiting or entertaining) "a remarkable show of skill"
2. display (something intended to communicate a particular impression) "made a display of strength"
3. show (a social event involving a public performance or entertainment) "they wanted to see some of the shows on Broadway"
4. appearance, show (pretending that something is the case in order to make a good impression) "they try to keep up appearances"

"put on nightly shows" -> performances. Sense 3 is the best fit.

Let's double check.
"guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows"
Shows = performances, events.
Sense 3: a social event involving a public performance or entertainment.

Therefore, the number is 3.
There is no ambiguity.
Number: 3.

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

Sentence: The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each day, guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the <t>countries</t> they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge.

Senses:
1. definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | examples=the state has elected a new president
2. definition=the territory occupied by a nation | examples=he returned to the land of his birth
3. definition=the people who live in a nation or country | examples=a statement that sums up the nation's mood
4. definition=an area outside of cities and towns | examples=his poetry celebrated the slower pace of life in the country
5. definition=a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography) | examples=it was a mountainous area

reasoning_content:
The sentence mentions: "guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the <t>countries</t> they think are selling out".
Here, "countries" refers to nations/states that are "selling out" (likely in the context of international climate negotiations, like the UN Climate Change Conference, where countries negotiate).
Wait, "selling out" implies making compromises in negotiations. The entities negotiating and selling out are the politically organized bodies of people under a single government (i.e., nation-states / governments).
Let's check the senses:
1. a politically organized body of people under a single government (the state has elected a new president) -> Nation as a political entity/government.
2. the territory occupied by a nation -> Land.
3. the people who live in a nation or country -> Populace.
4. an area outside of cities and towns -> Rural area.
5. a particular geographical region -> Region.

In the context of "countries they think are selling out", it refers to the governments/political entities representing the nations at a convention (like COP). "Selling out" is an action done by the political representatives/government. Thus, sense 1 (politically organized body of people under a single government) fits best.

Let's double check.
"mocking the countries they think are selling out"
Could it be 1? Yes, WordNet sense 1 for country: "a politically organized body of people under a single government". (synonyms: state, nation, country).
Sense 3: "the people who live in a nation or country" (synonyms: nation, country, people).
Usually, in international relations, "countries" refers to the state/government (Sense 1).

Let's review WordNet senses for "country":
1. state, nation, country (a politically organized body of people under a single government) "the state has elected a new president"; "African nations"; "students who had come to the nation's capitol"; "the country's largest manufacturer"
2. country, state, nation, land (the territory occupied by a nation) "he returned to the land of his birth"; "he visited several European countries"
3. nation, country, people (the people who live in a nation or country) "a statement that sums up the nation's mood"; "the news was announced to the nation"; "the whole country worshipped him"
4. country, rural area (an area outside of cities and towns) "his poetry celebrated the slower pace of life in the country"
5. area, country (a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography)) "it was a mountainous area"; "Bible country"

In the sentence, the activists are mocking the "countries" (governments/delegations) that are selling out at the convention center. This is Sense 1.

Wait, is there any chance it's 3? "the people who live in a nation". No, people don't sell out in this context, the governments/delegations do.
Is it 1? Yes.

Let me confirm the exact wording:
"guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the countries they think are selling out"
This is about the UN Climate Change Conference (COP15 in Copenhagen, probably, or similar). The "countries" are the nation-states acting as political entities. Sense 1.
Number: 1.

9. definition=compulsory military service
10. definition=a large and hurried swallow | examples=he finished it at a single gulp
11. definition=the act of moving a load by drawing or pulling

reasoning_content:
The sentence uses "draft" in the phrase "draft proposals".
"Draft proposals" means preliminary versions of proposals.
Let's check the senses:
1. document ordering payment
2. current of air
3. preliminary sketch of a design or picture
4. serving of drink
5. any of the various versions in the development of a written work | examples=a preliminary draft
6. depth of a vessel's keel
7. regulator for controlling flow of air
8. dose of liquid medicine
9. compulsory military service
10. large and hurried swallow
11. act of moving a load

Sense 5 fits "draft proposals" perfectly, as it refers to preliminary versions of a written work (proposals).
Let's double check. "draft proposals" -> preliminary versions of written works. Yes, sense 5.
Wait, could it be 3? "preliminary sketch of a design or picture". No, proposals are written works.
So 5 is the correct sense.
Number: 5.

Looking at the senses:
1. something proposed (such as a plan or assumption)
2. an offer of marriage
3. the act of making a proposal

Sense 1 fits perfectly, as "draft proposals" refers to written documents containing proposed plans or ideas.
Therefore, the correct sense is 1.

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

Sentence: The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each day, guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the countries they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on <t>paper</t> rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge.

Senses:
1. definition=a material made of cellulose pulp derived mainly from wood or rags or certain grasses
2. definition=an essay (especially one written as an assignment) | examples=he got an A on his composition
3. definition=a daily or weekly publication on folded sheets; contains news and articles and advertisements | examples=he read his newspaper at breakfast
4. definition=a medium for written communication | examples=the notion of an office running without paper is absurd
5. definition=a scholarly article describing the results of observations or stating hypotheses | examples=he has written many scientific papers
6. definition=a business firm that publishes newspapers | examples=Murdoch owns many newspapers
7. definition=the physical object that is the product of a newspaper publisher | examples=when it began to rain he covered his head with a newspaper

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each day, guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the countries they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on <t>paper</t> rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge."

The word "paper" here refers to the physical material on which draft proposals are written, as opposed to via e-mail. Wait, "passed hand-to-hand on paper" means written on the material "paper". Let's check the senses.
1. a material made of cellulose pulp derived mainly from wood or rags or certain grasses
2. an essay
3. a daily or weekly publication (newspaper)
4. a medium for written communication (the notion of an office running without paper is absurd)
5. a scholarly article
6. a business firm
7. the physical object that is the product of a newspaper publisher

Wait, is it 1 or 4?
"passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail"
Sense 1: a material made of cellulose pulp...
Sense 4: a medium for written communication | examples=the notion of an office running without paper is absurd.

Let's look at WordNet definitions for paper.
Noun:
1. paper (a material made of cellulose pulp derived mainly from wood or rags or certain grasses) "you can draw with a pencil on paper"
2. paper, composition, report (an essay (especially one written as an assignment)) "he got an A on his composition"
3. newspaper, paper (a daily or weekly publication on folded sheets; contains news and articles and advertisements) "he read his newspaper at breakfast"
4. paper (a medium for written communication) "the notion of an office running without paper is absurd"
5. paper (a scholarly article describing the results of observations or stating hypotheses) "he has written many scientific papers"
6. newspaper, paper (a business firm that publishes newspapers) "Murdoch owns many newspapers"
7. newspaper, paper (the physical object that is the product of a newspaper publisher) "when it began to rain he covered his head with a newspaper"

In the sentence: "draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail"
Does it mean the material (1) or the medium for written communication (4)?
Usually, "on paper" as opposed to "electronically" or "via e-mail" or "in practice" refers to the medium. But wait, "passed hand-to-hand on paper" means the physical sheets of paper.
Let's consider "medium for written communication". "the notion of an office running without paper is absurd". Here, "paper" means physical documents.
Wait, "on paper" could be sense 1: "you can draw with a pencil on paper".
Let's check if there's a strong collocation. "passed hand-to-hand on paper".
Actually, sense 1 is the material. Sense 4 is "a medium for written communication".
"passed hand-to-hand on paper" -> paper here refers to the physical material/sheets.
Wait, WordNet sense 1: "a material made of cellulose pulp..."
WordNet sense 4: "a medium for written communication" - example: "the notion of an office running without paper is absurd".

Let's search for similar examples. "draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail".
If it's about "paper" vs "e-mail", "paper" is the medium.
Wait, "passed hand-to-hand on paper". You pass *documents* or *sheets*. But the word is "paper" (uncountable).
"on paper" - uncountable.
Sense 1: "a material..." (uncountable).
Sense 4: "a medium..." (uncountable).
Let's think about WordNet sense 4 vs 1.
Sense 1 is the substance.
Sense 4 is the medium (as in "paper vs digital").
Since it contrasts with "via e-mail", it's contrasting media. So Sense 4 is highly likely.
Wait, "passed hand-to-hand on paper" -> "on paper" means "written on the material".
Let's check if Sense 1 is more appropriate for "on paper". "He wrote it on paper." -> Sense 1.
"an office running without paper" -> Sense 4.
"passed hand-to-hand on paper" -> refers to the medium of communication (paper vs e-mail).
Let's consider Sense 1: "passed hand-to-hand on paper" -> "on [the material] paper".
Actually, WordNet sense 1: paper (a material made of cellulose pulp derived mainly from wood or rags or certain grasses)
WordNet sense 4: paper (a medium for written communication) "the notion of an office running without paper is absurd"
If I have to choose between 1 and 4. "draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail". E-mail is a medium. Paper is a medium. So 4.
Wait! E-mail is a medium. "via e-mail" -> e-mail is a medium. "on paper" -> paper is a medium.
Let's check if there is a better fit.
Could it be 1? "passed hand-to-hand on paper". "paper" as the physical substance.
Let's look at the phrasing: "passed hand-to-hand on paper". It means they are passed as physical pieces of paper.
In many WordNet-annotated corpora (like SemCor), "on paper" meaning the physical sheets often gets Sense 1. But "paper" meaning documents/medium gets Sense 4.
Let's look at the example for Sense 4: "the notion of an office running without paper is absurd". This means without physical documents.
Here, "draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper" means they are passed as physical documents/sheets.
Wait, if it's "on paper", it's a prepositional phrase. "on" + "paper" (material). Like "on wood", "on glass". You write *on* paper (material). You pass them *on* paper? No, you pass them *as* paper, or written *on* paper. "passed hand-to-hand on paper" -> the proposals are on paper. So "paper" is the material they are written on. Thus Sense 1.
Wait, "passed hand-to-hand on paper" could be a slight misuse of "on paper" (which usually means "in theory"), but here it literally means written on the material paper.
Let's re-read carefully: "draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail"
If it meant medium, it would be "by paper" or "in paper". "on paper" emphasizes the material surface.
Let's check SemCor for "on paper".
"written on paper" -> Sense 1.
"an office running without paper" -> Sense 4.
I will guess Sense 1 because "on paper" usually refers to the material.
Wait, let's think if Sense 4 is "paper" as in "documents". "pass documents hand-to-hand" -> "pass paper hand-to-hand"? No, "passed ... on paper". The proposals are *on* paper. The word "paper" is the material.
Let's consider Sense 1.

Let's review Sense 1: "a material made of cellulose pulp..."
Sense 4: "a medium for written communication"
If the sentence was "paper is a medium...", it would be 4.
"passed hand-to-hand on paper" -> "paper" is the material. I'll go with 1.

Wait, is there any chance it's 4? "rather than via e-mail". E-mail is a medium. Paper is contrasted with e-mail. So paper is a medium.
But "on paper" -> "on" implies the surface. You send something *by* email, you write it *on* paper.
I'll output 1.

Let me double check the exact sentence. "The sheer sprawl of the gathering -- where 13,000 people move in and out of the convention center each day, guitar-playing activists put on nightly shows mocking the countries they think are selling out, and draft proposals are passed hand-to-hand on paper rather than via e-mail -- poses a challenge."
This is from a news article (probably about the World Social Forum or similar).
In WordNet, "paper" as in "written on paper" is sense 1.
I will bet on 1.
Wait, could it be 1? Yes.
Let me reconsider 4. "a medium for written communication". If the author meant "the medium of paper", they might use sense 4. But typically, "on paper" is tagged as sense 1 in SemCor because it refers to the material.
I will choose 1.

2. definition=high level or degree; the property of being intense
3. definition=the magnitude of sound (usually in a specified direction) | examples=the kids played their music at full volume
4. definition=chromatic purity: freedom from dilution with white and hence vivid in hue

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The <t>intensity</t> is only building: nearly all of the key ministers are now here, and as early as Wednesday 60 heads of government will be in Copenhagen."
The word "intensity" here refers to the level of activity, excitement, or tension (high level or degree; the property of being intense).
Let's check the senses:
1. the amount of energy transmitted (as by acoustic or electromagnetic radiation)
2. high level or degree; the property of being intense
3. the magnitude of sound
4. chromatic purity

Sense 2 fits perfectly. "The intensity [of the event/negotiations/atmosphere] is only building..."
So the answer is 2.
Double check:
Sense 1: physics (energy)
Sense 2: general high level or degree (intense situation)
Sense 3: sound volume
Sense 4: color purity

Therefore, 2.

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

Sentence: The intensity is only building: nearly all of the key <t>ministers</t> are now here, and as early as Wednesday 60 heads of government will be in Copenhagen.

Senses:
1. definition=a person authorized to conduct religious worship | examples=clergymen are usually called ministers in Protestant churches
2. definition=a person appointed to a high office in the government | examples=Minister of Finance
3. definition=a diplomat representing one government to another; ranks below ambassador

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The intensity is only building: nearly all of the key <t>ministers</t> are now here, and as early as Wednesday 60 heads of government will be in Copenhagen."
The context is about government officials, "heads of government", "Copenhagen" (likely referring to a climate summit or similar international meeting).
The word "ministers" refers to people appointed to high office in the government (e.g., cabinet ministers).
Let's check the senses:
1. religious worship
2. a person appointed to a high office in the government (e.g., Minister of Finance)
3. a diplomat representing one government to another
4. the job of a head of a government department

Sense 2 fits best: "a person appointed to a high office in the government". The sentence refers to the people themselves ("nearly all of the key ministers are now here"). Sense 4 is "the job", but the sentence uses the plural "ministers" to refer to the people. Sense 3 is "diplomat", but "key ministers" alongside "heads of government" usually refers to cabinet ministers (Sense 2).

Wait, let's look at WordNet senses for "minister":
1. minister, reverend (a person authorized to conduct religious worship)
2. minister, government minister (a person appointed to a high office in the government; "Minister of Finance")
3. minister, diplomatic minister (a diplomat representing one government to another; ranks below ambassador)
4. minister (the job of a head of a government department)

The sentence refers to government ministers attending a summit. Therefore, Sense 2.

Wait, Conservation International is an NGO (social group). "Global policy" refers to their plans of action, strategies, or advocacy.
Sense 1 fits best: "a plan of action adopted by an individual or social group".
Let's double check. Does it mean government policy? No, it's an NGO.
So Sense 1 is the most appropriate.
Let's review the exact definitions.
Sense 1: a plan of action adopted by an individual or social group (e.g., it was a policy of retribution).
Sense 2: a line of argument rationalizing the course of action of a government (e.g., they debated the policy or impolicy of the proposed legislation).
Sense 3: insurance policy.

Therefore, Sense 1.
End of thought.
