reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball, while he was moodily making wet <t>rings</t> on the table-top with the bottom of the glass, he became aware that he was not alone."
The word "rings" refers to the circular marks left by the bottom of a glass on a table.
Let's look at the senses:
1. characteristic sound
2. toroidal shape / circular shape (a ring of ships, etc. - wait, "toroidal shape" or just circular shape? Let's check the examples. "a ring of ships" -> circular arrangement. What about a circular mark? Often mapped to the shape sense.)
3. rigid circular band
4. chemistry
5. association of criminals
6. sound of a bell
7. boxing ring
8. jewelry
9. bird band

Wait, "making wet rings on the table-top". These are circular marks.
Sense 2: "a toroidal shape" (often used for any circular shape or ring-like mark, e.g., "rings of smoke", "rings on a table"). Wait, WordNet sense for "ring" (shape) is "a toroidal shape" or "a circular shape". Let's check WordNet definitions for "ring".
Noun:
1. ring, hoop (a rigid circular band...)
2. ring (an association of criminals...)
3. ring, boxing ring (a platform...)
4. ring, band (jewelry...)
5. ring, annulus, doughnut, halo (a toroidal shape) -> examples: "a ring of ships in the harbor", "a halo of smoke", "smoke rings". Wait, "making wet rings" fits "a toroidal shape" or circular shape.
Let's re-read Sense 2: "definition=a toroidal shape | examples=a ring of ships in the harbor"
Yes, this is the "annulus / toroidal shape" sense, which includes circular marks like wet rings from a glass.

Let's double check if there's any other sense.
1. sound
2. toroidal shape
3. rigid circular band
4. chemistry
5. criminals
6. sound of bell
7. platform
8. jewelry
9. bird leg strip

Clearly Sense 2 is the best fit for "wet rings on the table-top".

Let's confirm: "making wet rings" -> circular shapes. Sense 2.

Senses:
1. definition=a set of data arranged in rows and columns | examples=see table 1

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "He looked up with bloodshot eyes and beheld the stranger sitting across the <t>table</t>, smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
The word "table" refers to the piece of furniture they are sitting across from each other.
Let's check the senses:
1. a set of data arranged in rows and columns
2. a piece of furniture having a smooth flat top that is usually supported by one or more vertical legs
3. a piece of furniture with tableware for a meal laid out on it
4. flat tableland with steep edges
5. a company of people assembled at a table for a meal or game
6. food or meals in general

In the sentence, they are sitting across the table. It's the physical piece of furniture. Sense 2 is "a piece of furniture having a smooth flat top that is usually supported by one or more vertical legs". Sense 3 implies tableware for a meal is laid out on it, which is not necessarily indicated here (they could be sitting at a desk or a table without food). "sitting across the table" usually refers to the furniture itself (Sense 2). Let's review WordNet senses for table.
Sense 2: table, tabular array (a set of data arranged in rows and columns)
Sense 1: table (a piece of furniture having a smooth flat top that is usually supported by one or more vertical legs) "it was a sturdy table"
Wait, the prompt numbers them:
1. data
2. furniture
3. furniture with tableware
4. tableland
5. company of people
6. food

Sense 2 is "a piece of furniture having a smooth flat top...".
Sense 3 is "a piece of furniture with tableware for a meal laid out on it".

Is it 2 or 3? "sitting across the table" - usually refers to the physical furniture. There is no mention of a meal. So Sense 2.

Let me double check the exact WordNet definitions.
table (a piece of furniture having a smooth flat top that is usually supported by one or more vertical legs) "it was a sturdy table"
table (a piece of furniture with tableware for a meal laid out on it) "I reserved a table at my favorite restaurant"

Since they are just sitting across the table, smiling, it's the furniture. Sense 2.
Wait, "sitting across the table" could just be the physical table. I will choose 2.
Let's consider if "table" in "sitting across the table" might be sense 2. Yes.
I will return 2.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "He looked up with bloodshot eyes and beheld the stranger sitting across the table, smiling a <t>secret</t> smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
I need to identify the correct sense of "secret" from the given list.

Senses:
1. not open or public; kept private or not revealed
2. conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods
3. not openly made known
4. communicated covertly
5. not expressed
6. designed to elude detection
7. hidden from general view or use
8. (of information) given in confidence or in secret
9. indulging only covertly
10. having an import not apparent to the senses nor obvious to the intelligence; beyond ordinary understanding
11. the next to highest level of official classification for documents

Wait, "secret smile" - a smile that is not expressed? Or a smile that communicates covertly? Or not open or public?
Let's look at WordNet senses for "secret".
Adjective senses:
1. secret (not open or public; kept private or not revealed) "a secret formula"
2. secret, clandestine, surreptitious, undercover, underground, under-the-counter, under-the-table (conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods) "clandestine intelligence operations"
3. secret (not openly made known) "a secret marriage"
4. secret (communicated covertly) "their secret signal was a wink"
5. secret, private (not expressed) "secret (or private) thoughts"
6. hidden, secret (designed to elude detection) "a hidden room"
7. privy, secret, secluded (hidden from general view or use)
8. confidential, secret (given in confidence or in secret)
9. closet, secret (indulging only covertly) "a secret alcoholic"
10. mystic, mysterious, occult, secret, orphic (having an import not apparent to the senses)

Wait, "secret smile" usually means a smile that is not expressed openly, or maybe it means "not expressed" (sense 5)? Wait, a smile *is* expressed.
Could it be "communicated covertly" (sense 4)? "their secret signal was a wink". A secret smile is like a secret signal.
Wait, let's think about "secret smile". Is it "not expressed"? No, it's a smile.
Let's check "secret" in WordNet.
Maybe sense 5: "not expressed" - "secret (or private) thoughts". But a smile is expressed.
Maybe sense 1: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed".
Wait, WordNet has "secret" as an adjective.
Let's search for "secret smile" in WordNet examples, or similar.
Actually, in WordNet, "secret" sense 5 is "not expressed" (secret thoughts).
Sense 4 is "communicated covertly" (their secret signal was a wink). A secret smile is very similar to a secret signal.
Let's consider "secret" modifying "smile". A secret smile is a smile that conveys a secret, or is shared secretly.
Wait! What if "secret smile" falls under sense 5? No.
Let's look at sense 4: "communicated covertly" -> "their secret signal was a wink". A smile can be a signal.
What about sense 1? "not open or public; kept private or not revealed" -> "a secret formula".
Let's search for the exact sentence: "He looked up with bloodshot eyes and beheld the stranger sitting across the table, smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
This looks like it's from a corpus, perhaps the Brown corpus or similar, used in WordNet or SemCor.
Wait, "smiling a secret smile" -> "secret" here means "not expressed"? No.
Could it be "not openly made known"? (sense 3)
Could it be "having an import not apparent..." (sense 10)?
Let's reconsider sense 4: "communicated covertly". Examples: "their secret signal was a wink". A secret smile is very much like a secret signal.
Let's reconsider sense 5: "not expressed". Examples: "secret (or private) thoughts".
Wait, could it be sense 1?
Let's check the SemCor sense for "secret smile".
Often, "secret smile" is mapped to sense 4 (communicated covertly) or sense 1.
Actually, let's look at the options.
"secret" (adjective):
1. not open or public
2. clandestine
3. not openly made known
4. communicated covertly
5. not expressed
6. designed to elude detection
7. hidden from general view
8. given in confidence
9. indulging only covertly
10. occult

In the sentence: "...smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
Conspirators communicate covertly. So "secret" here means "communicated covertly".
Let's check if there's any other fit. "a secret smile" -> a smile that is a secret communication.
Sense 4: "communicated covertly" - "their secret signal was a wink". A smile is a facial expression, just like a wink. So "secret smile" fits perfectly with "communicated covertly".

Let me double check sense 4 vs sense 1.
Sense 1: "a secret formula", "a secret weapon".
Sense 4: "their secret signal was a wink", "a secret smile".
Yes, "secret signal", "secret smile", "secret glance" all fit "communicated covertly".

Let's check if the sentence is from a known book.
"He looked up with bloodshot eyes and beheld the stranger sitting across the table, smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
This might be from a specific novel.
If it is from SemCor, "secret" modifying a facial expression (smile, wink, glance) used to communicate is Sense 4.

Let's review the definition of Sense 4: "communicated covertly".
Examples: "their secret signal was a wink".
This perfectly aligns with "smile" as a form of covert communication between "fellow conspirators".

Therefore, the correct sense is 4.
Let's quickly check if sense 5 "not expressed" could be it. "secret thoughts" - but a smile is expressed.
Sense 3 "not openly made known" - "a secret marriage".
Sense 1 "not open or public" - "a secret formula".
I am confident it is 4.
The number is 4.
I will return 4.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "He hadn't even <t>noticed</t> -- what was his name? Pete? -- he hadn't seen him sit down."
The word is "noticed".
Let's look at the senses:
1. discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of (detect, find, discover, notice) -> "She detected high levels..."
2. notice or perceive (note, observe, notice) -> "She noted that someone was following her"
3. make or write a comment on (comment, notice) -> "he commented..."
4. express recognition of the presence or existence of, or acquaintance with (acknowledge, notice) -> "He never acknowledges..."

In the sentence, "noticed" means to perceive or become aware of. He hadn't seen him sit down. This aligns with sense 2: "notice or perceive".
Wait, sense 1 is "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of".
Sense 2 is "notice or perceive".
Let's check WordNet definitions for "notice".
WordNet:
notice, observe, note (notice or perceive) "She noted that someone was following her"
detect, observe, find, discover, notice (discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of) "She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water"
comment, notice, point out (make or write a comment on) "he commented the paper of his colleague"
acknowledge, notice (express recognition of the presence or existence of, or acquaintance with) "He never acknowledges his colleagues..."

In the sentence: "He hadn't even noticed... he hadn't seen him sit down."
This is about perceiving an event (someone sitting down). "notice or perceive" fits perfectly. "observe, note, notice".
Therefore, sense 2.
Let's double check.
"He hadn't even noticed" -> perceive.
Sense 2 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "He hadn't even noticed -- what was his name? Pete? -- he hadn't <t>seen</t> him sit down."
The word is "seen".
The context is about perceiving by sight: he hadn't seen him sit down (he hadn't observed him sitting down with his eyes).
Let's check the senses.
1. perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight.
2. perceive mentally.
3. perceive or be contemporaneous with.
4. imagine.
5. deem to be.
6. get to know or become aware of.
7. see or watch (view a show).
8. come together.
9. find out.
10. be careful.
11. go to see for professional reasons.
12. go to see for a social visit.
13. go to see a place.
14. take charge of.
15. receive as a guest.
16. date regularly.
17. see and understand.
18. deliberate.
19. observe as if with an eye.
20. observe, check out, inspect.
21. go or live through.
22. accompany.
23. match or meet.
24. make sense of.

In the sentence, "he hadn't seen him sit down", it means he didn't perceive by sight the action of him sitting down.
This matches sense 1: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight".
Wait, could it be 7? "see or watch" - examples: view a show on television. No, 1 is better for just seeing an event happen.
Let's re-read sense 1: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight | examples=You have to be a good observer to see all the details"
Is there another sense? "observe" is 20, but that's "inspect".
Sense 1 is the most standard for "see [object] [verb]" as in "see him sit down".

Let's double check.
"he hadn't seen him sit down" -> perceive by sight.
Sense 1.

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

Sentence: The man was <t>uncanny</t>, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow.

Senses:
1. definition=suggesting the operation of supernatural influences; ; ; - John Galsworthy; ; - Henry Kingsley | examples=an eldritch screech
2. definition=surpassing the ordinary or normal;  - George Will | examples=Beyond his preternatural affability there is some acid and some steel

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The man was <t>uncanny</t>, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
The word "uncanny" here describes the man being like a shadow, making no noise, suggesting something supernatural, eerie, or weird.
Let's look at the senses:
1. suggesting the operation of supernatural influences; (eldritch screech)
2. surpassing the ordinary or normal; (preternatural affability)

"like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow" implies an eerie, supernatural, or ghost-like quality. Thus, sense 1 is more appropriate. Wait, "uncanny" in WordNet:
1. uncanny, unearthly (suggesting the operation of supernatural influences) "an eldritch screech"; "the three weird sisters"; "stumps had uncanny shapes as monstrous as a prehistoric dragon"; "uncanny silence"
2. preternatural, uncanny, unearthly (surpassing the ordinary or normal) "his preternatural affability"; "Beyond his preternatural affability there is some acid and some steel"- George Will

"uncanny silence" matches "made as much noise as a shadow" (i.e., no noise, eerie silence).
Therefore, sense 1.
Let's double check.
"uncanny silence" -> sense 1.
The sentence: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
This means he was eerily quiet and shadow-like, which aligns with supernatural/eerie (sense 1).

Wait, the prompt says:
1. definition=suggesting the operation of supernatural influences...
2. definition=surpassing the ordinary or normal...

I will output 1.

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

Sentence: The man was uncanny, like a <t>shadow</t>, and made as much noise as a shadow.

Senses:
1. definition=shade within clear boundaries

7. definition=a dominating and pervasive presence | examples=he received little recognition working in the shadow of his father
8. definition=a spy employed to follow someone and report their movements
9. definition=an inseparable companion | examples=the poor child was his mother's shadow

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The man was uncanny, like a <t>shadow</t>, and made as much noise as a shadow."
The word "shadow" here refers to something ghostly, insubstantial, or existing in perception only, or perhaps an unilluminated area/darkness. Let's look at the options.
Wait, "made as much noise as a shadow" implies a shadow makes no noise. A shadow is insubstantial, ghost-like.
"uncanny, like a shadow" -> ghost-like, apparition.
Let's check the senses:
1. shade within clear boundaries
2. an unilluminated area
3. something existing in perception only (a ghostly apparition at midnight)
4. a premonition of something adverse
5. an indication that something has been present
6. refuge from danger or observation
7. a dominating and pervasive presence
8. a spy
9. an inseparable companion

"uncanny, like a shadow" -> ghost-like, something existing in perception only.
Or maybe it means "an unilluminated area"? No, "uncanny" strongly points to ghost/apparition.
Wait, "made as much noise as a shadow" means no noise, because a shadow is just a dark shape or an apparition.
Is there an idiom "like a shadow"?
Let's consider WordNet senses for "shadow".
1. shade, shadow, shadowiness (shade within clear boundaries)
2. darkness, dark, shadow (an unilluminated area) "he moved off into the darkness"
3. shadow, shade, phantom, phantasm, phantasma, apparition (something existing in perception only) "a ghostly apparition at midnight" -> wait, the example for 3 is "a ghostly apparition at midnight".
Wait, could it be 2? "an unilluminated area"
Could it be 3? "something existing in perception only"
Let's search for the exact quote: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
Actually, it might be from a specific book. "The man was uncanny, like a shadow..."
If it's compared to a shadow, and it's "uncanny", it aligns with "ghostly apparition" (sense 3).
Wait, "shadow" as in "ghost" is sense 3. "something existing in perception only".
Let's check if there's any other sense. "an inseparable companion" (sense 9) - no.
"a spy" (sense 8) - no.

Let's look at sense 3 again: "something existing in perception only | examples=a ghostly apparition at midnight". The word "uncanny" means strange or mysterious, especially in an unsettling way. This perfectly matches "ghostly apparition".
Therefore, sense 3 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check.
Sentence: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
"shadow" here means a ghost or phantom.
Sense 3: something existing in perception only.
I will return 3.
There is no ambiguity. "uncanny" -> ghost -> sense 3.
I'm confident in 3.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and <t>made</t> as much noise as a shadow."
The word is "made".
The phrase is "made as much noise as a shadow".
This means to produce or emit noise, or to cause noise to happen.
Wait, "make noise" -> "give rise to; cause to happen or occur" or "perform or carry out"?
Let's check the senses.
Sense 5: give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally | examples=cause a commotion
Sense 16: perform or carry out | examples=make a decision
Sense 24: carry out or commit | examples=make a mistake
Sense 26: organize or be responsible for | examples=hold a reception
Sense 48: behave in a certain way | examples=make merry

Wait, "make noise" is often classified under "give rise to; cause to happen or occur" (sense 5) or "perform or carry out" (sense 16).
Let's look at WordNet senses for "make".
Sense: make a noise -> "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" (cause a commotion, make a stink, make a fuss).
Wait, "make noise" -> cause to happen. "make a noise"
Let's check WordNet for "make" + "noise".
"make a noise" -> create, make (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) "cause a commotion"; "make a stink"
Wait, could it be "make" as in "produce"? "give rise to; cause to happen or occur" -> examples: cause a commotion, make a mess? No, make a mess is sense 3.
Let's check sense 5: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" -> examples: cause a commotion, make a stir.
Is there a better fit?
What about sense 16: "perform or carry out" -> make a decision, make a move.
What about sense 24: "carry out or commit" -> make a mistake, make a blunder.
What about sense 1: "engage in" -> make love, make war.
What about sense 5: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" -> cause a commotion. Wait, "make a noise" fits "give rise to".
Let's check the exact WordNet sense for "make a noise".
Synonyms: make, cause, do (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) "cause a commotion"; "make a stink".
Wait, could it be "make" as in "create or manufacture" (sense 6)? No.
Could it be "make" as in "produce" (emit)? "The engine makes a lot of noise." -> "give rise to" or "produce"?
Let's consider "make a noise". "make" here means to produce or emit.
WordNet:
make (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) "cause a commotion"; "make a stink" -> this is sense 5.
Wait, let's look at the options.
5. definition=give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally | examples=cause a commotion
Is there any other sense?
"make noise" -> "make" (give rise to)
Let's check if there is a sense "emit" or "produce". No.
What about sense 3? "make or cause to be or to become" -> make a mess.
What about sense 16? "perform or carry out" -> make a decision.
What about sense 26? "organize or be responsible for" -> hold a reception, throw a party, make a party? No.

Let's rethink: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
"make noise" -> to produce sound.
In WordNet, "make" has a sense: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally". Examples: cause a commotion, make a stink. "make a noise" fits here.
Another possibility: "make" as in "make a sound".
WordNet sense: make, create (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) "cause a commotion"; "make a stink"
Wait, could it be "make" (cause to be)? No.
Could it be "make" (perform or carry out)? "make a speech", "make a decision". "make a noise" isn't really carrying out an action like a decision.
I will bet on Sense 5.

Let's double check if there's any other sense.
"make" (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) -> "cause a commotion", "make a noise".
Wait, what about "make" as in "make a sound"?
WordNet:
make (give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally) "cause a commotion"; "make a stink" -> this is the exact definition of Sense 5.
Let's check Sense 5 again: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally | examples=cause a commotion".
Yes, "make a noise" or "make a sound" falls under this.

Wait, is there a sense "produce or emit"?
No, the senses provided are exactly from WordNet 3.0 or similar.
Sense 5: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally"
Sense 16: "perform or carry out"
Sense 24: "carry out or commit"
I'll go with 5.
Wait, "make a noise" - could it be 5? Yes. "cause a commotion" is similar to "make a noise".
Let's consider if it's 5.
I am confident it is 5.
Another look at the sentence: "made as much noise as a shadow".
"make noise" -> cause noise to happen. Sense 5.
Done.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a <t>shadow</t>."
The target word is "shadow".
The context compares the man to a shadow in terms of being uncanny and making no noise (or as much noise as a shadow, which is none).
Let's evaluate the senses:
1. shade within clear boundaries
2. an unilluminated area
3. something existing in perception only (a ghostly apparition) - "uncanny, like a shadow"
Wait, if it's "made as much noise as a shadow", it refers to the physical entity of a shadow (which makes no noise) or a ghost/apparition.
Let's check WordNet senses for "shadow".
Sense 1: shade within clear boundaries (e.g., "the tree cast a shadow")
Sense 2: an unilluminated area (e.g., "he moved off into the darkness") -> wait, darkness is the example.
Sense 3: something existing in perception only (e.g., "a ghostly apparition at midnight") -> "the man was uncanny, like a shadow"
Wait, does it mean a ghost? "made as much noise as a shadow" -> shadows don't make noise.
Could it be Sense 3? "something existing in perception only"
Let's check the exact quote if possible. "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
Actually, a shadow (the dark shape) makes no noise. Is there a sense for "dark shape"?
WordNet senses for shadow:
1. shade within clear boundaries
2. an unilluminated area
3. something existing in perception only (a ghostly apparition)
4. a premonition of something adverse
5. an indication that something has been present (trace)
6. refuge from danger or observation
7. a dominating and pervasive presence
8. a spy
9. an inseparable companion

In the sentence: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
If it means a ghost or apparition, "uncanny" fits perfectly. "uncanny, like a shadow" -> ghost.
Wait, "shadow" as a ghost is sense 3.
Let's consider if "shadow" means the physical shadow (shade). "made as much noise as a shadow" -> physical shadows don't make noise. But "uncanny, like a shadow" -> ghosts are uncanny.
"something existing in perception only" -> "a ghostly apparition at midnight".
Is there another option?
In WordNet, "shadow" (noun):
1. shadow, shade (shade within clear boundaries) "the tree cast a shadow"
2. shadow, darkness (an unilluminated area) "he moved off into the darkness" -> wait, the example is "he moved off into the darkness" but the word is shadow? No, "shadows" maybe.
3. shadow, phantom, phantasm, phantasma, apparition (something existing in perception only) "a ghostly apparition at midnight"
4. shadow, tincture, trace, vestige (an indication that something has been present) "there wasn't a trace of evidence"
5. shadow (a premonition of something adverse) "a shadow over his happiness"
6. shadow (refuge from danger or observation) "he felt secure in his father's shadow" -> wait, "in his father's shadow" is usually sense 7 (dominating presence). WordNet might have "shadow" as refuge? "drop/throw/cast a shadow"
Let's look at the given senses:
1. shade within clear boundaries
2. an unilluminated area
3. something existing in perception only
4. a premonition of something adverse
5. an indication that something has been present
6. refuge from danger or observation
7. a dominating and pervasive presence
8. a spy
9. an inseparable companion

"uncanny, like a shadow" -> ghost/apparition. Sense 3.
Wait, "made as much noise as a shadow" could just mean the physical shadow (sense 1 or 2). But "uncanny" strongly points to "ghostly apparition".
Let's search for the sentence: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
This might be from a book. "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
Wait, if it's "ghostly apparition", sense 3 is "something existing in perception only | examples=a ghostly apparition at midnight".
Could it be 3? Yes.

Let's rethink: does "shadow" mean "ghost" here?
"uncanny, like a shadow" - uncanny means strange or mysterious, especially in an unsettling way. Ghosts are uncanny.
"made as much noise as a shadow" - ghosts/shadows make no noise.
If it refers to the dark shape (shade), it's not "uncanny" inherently, but the simile "like a shadow" could mean like a ghost.
I will bet on Sense 3.

Wait, is "shadow" in "made as much noise as a shadow" referring to the physical shadow? "made as much noise as a shadow" -> 0 noise. A physical shadow makes 0 noise. A ghost might make noise. But "ghostly apparition" is the example for sense 3.
Actually, in WordNet, sense 3 is "something existing in perception only".
If the sentence is "The man was uncanny, like a shadow...", "shadow" here is used to mean a ghost or phantom.
Therefore, sense 3 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check if there's any other sense.
1. shade within clear boundaries
2. an unilluminated area
3. something existing in perception only
If it means "an unilluminated area", it doesn't fit "uncanny".
I'll output 3.
Wait, let me read the sentence again. "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
Could it be 1? "shade within clear boundaries". No.
Could it be 3? Yes.

Let me think if "shadow" as in "ghost" is sense 3. Yes, "phantom, phantasm, apparition" are synonyms for this sense of shadow.
"He was like a shadow" -> he was like a ghost.
I am confident it is 3.
There is a slight chance it's 1 or 2 if it's strictly literal, but "uncanny" pushes it to 3.
Wait, what if the sentence means he was stealthy? "made as much noise as a shadow" -> stealthy. But stealthy isn't one of the senses. The senses are noun senses.
I'll go with 3.
No, wait. "made as much noise as a shadow" -> shadows don't make noise. Is a shadow (the dark shape) considered "something existing in perception only"? No, a shadow (dark shape) is sense 1 or 2.
But "uncanny, like a shadow" -> "shadow" meaning ghost.
I will output 3.
Let me reconsider. Is there any idiom "like a shadow" meaning ghost? Yes.
I will output 3.

Let's look at the senses:
1. wither, as with a loss of moisture
2. draw back, as with fear or pain (e.g., she flinched...) -> "shrink out of sight" implies drawing back, cowering, retreating. Wait, "shrink" as in "shrink back" or "shrink away".

5. decrease in size, range, or extent

Sense 2: draw back, as with fear or pain. Synonyms: flinch, cringe, shrink, wince, quail. "Haney felt like shrinking out of sight" -> drawing back.

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

Sentence: Haney felt like shrinking out of sight, but he was already <t>trapped</t> in the corner with the wiry, dark little man.

Senses:
1. definition=place in a confining or embarrassing position | examples=He was trapped in a difficult situation
2. definition=catch in or as if in a trap | examples=The men trap foxes
3. definition=hold or catch as if in a trap | examples=The gaps between the teeth trap food particles
4. definition=to hold fast or prevent from moving | examples=The child was pinned under the fallen tree

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Haney felt like shrinking out of sight, but he was already <t>trapped</t> in the corner with the wiry, dark little man."
The word "trapped" means he was caught or confined in the corner, unable to escape.
Let's look at the senses:
1. place in a confining or embarrassing position (e.g., trapped in a difficult situation)
2. catch in or as if in a trap (e.g., trap foxes)
3. hold or catch as if in a trap (e.g., gaps trap food)
4. to hold fast or prevent from moving (e.g., pinned under a tree) - wait, WordNet sense for "trap" or "pin"? Wait, "trap" sense 4?
Wait, is "trapped in the corner" sense 1 or 2?
Actually, "trapped in the corner" means physically confined. Let's re-read the senses.
Sense 1: place in a confining or embarrassing position.
Sense 2: catch in or as if in a trap.
Sense 3: hold or catch as if in a trap.
Sense 4: to hold fast or prevent from moving (this might be "pin" or "trap" as in "trapped in a burning building"). Wait, WordNet defines "trap" as:
1. trap, snare, ensnare, trammel, entrap (catch in or as if in a trap) "The men trap foxes"
2. trap (place in a confining or embarrassing position) "He was trapped in a difficult situation"
3. trap (hold or catch as if in a trap) "The gaps between the teeth trap food particles"
Wait, what about sense 4? Is it "trap" or "pin"? "pin, trap" - to hold fast or prevent from moving. "The child was pinned under the fallen tree" -> this is "pin". Wait, the prompt lists 4 senses of "trap" (or maybe synonyms).
Let's check WordNet for "trap":
Verb:
1. trap, snare, ensnare, trammel, entrap (catch in or as if in a trap) "The men trap foxes"
2. trap (place in a confining or embarrassing position) "He was trapped in a difficult situation"
3. trap (hold or catch as if in a trap) "The gaps between the teeth trap food particles"

Wait, "trapped in the corner" - is it physical trapping?
Let's check if there is another sense. "trap" - to catch in a trap.
If Haney is trapped in the corner, he is physically caught/confined.
Could it be sense 1? "place in a confining or embarrassing position". The example is "He was trapped in a difficult situation".
What about "trapped in a corner"? It's a physical confinement. Is there a physical sense of "trap" meaning "catch in a trap"? Yes, sense 2: "catch in or as if in a trap".
Wait, WordNet has:
trap (catch in or as if in a trap) "The men trap foxes"
trap (place in a confining or embarrassing position) "He was trapped in a difficult situation"
Is "trapped in a corner" considered "catch in or as if in a trap" or "place in a confining or embarrassing position"?
Usually, "trapped in a corner" implies being caught as if in a trap.
Let's consider "trap" in WordNet.
Sense 1: catch in or as if in a trap (trap, snare, ensnare, trammel, entrap)
Sense 2: place in a confining or embarrassing position (trap)
Sense 3: hold or catch as if in a trap (trap)
Sense 4: hold fast or prevent from moving (pin, trap) -> wait, pin is the headword, trap is a synonym. "The child was pinned under the fallen tree" -> pin. But the prompt lists it as a sense of "trap".

Let's rethink: "trapped in the corner" -> he couldn't escape.
Is it sense 1 (confining/embarrassing) or sense 2 (catch in/as if in a trap)?
"trapped in a corner" -> "caught in or as if in a trap". A corner acts like a trap.
Wait, "He was trapped in a difficult situation" is metaphorical. "Trapped in the corner" is physical.
Physical trapping is usually Sense 1 in WordNet (catch in or as if in a trap). Wait, the prompt numbers them:
1. definition=place in a confining or embarrassing position | examples=He was trapped in a difficult situation
2. definition=catch in or as if in a trap | examples=The men trap foxes
3. definition=hold or catch as if in a trap | examples=The gaps between the teeth trap food particles
4. definition=to hold fast or prevent from moving | examples=The child was pinned under the fallen tree

If "trapped in the corner" is physical, it aligns with "catch in or as if in a trap" (Sense 2) or "to hold fast or prevent from moving" (Sense 4). But Sense 4's example is "pinned under the fallen tree" (crushed, unable to move). Haney is just cornered, not crushed. So Sense 2 (catch in or as if in a trap) fits "cornered" perfectly (like an animal trapped in a corner).
Wait, "trap" as in "cornered". To corner an animal is to trap it.
So Sense 2: catch in or as if in a trap.

Let's double check WordNet verb "trap":
1. trap, snare, ensnare, trammel, entrap (catch in or as if in a trap) "The men trap foxes"
2. trap (place in a confining or embarrassing position) "He was trapped in a difficult situation"
3. trap (hold or catch as if in a trap) "The gaps between the teeth trap food particles"

Is there a 4th sense for "trap"?
Maybe "pin, trap" (hold fast or prevent from moving) "The child was pinned under the fallen tree; He was trapped in the car".
If "trapped in the corner" means he was caught as if in a trap, it's Sense 2.
Let's consider if "trapped in a corner" is Sense 1. "confining or embarrassing position". A corner is a confining position. But "embarrassing" is specific to the social/abstract sense.
Actually, in WordNet, "trap" (place in a confining or embarrassing position) is specifically for abstract situations (trapped in a marriage, trapped in a difficult situation).
Physical confinement where you are caught is "catch in or as if in a trap" (Sense 2). For example, "trapped in a burning building", "trapped in a corner".
Therefore, Sense 2 is the most appropriate.

Let's review the exact WordNet synsets for "trap" (verb):
Synset 1: trap, snare, ensnare, trammel, entrap (catch in or as if in a trap) "The men trap foxes"
Synset 2: trap (place in a confining or embarrassing position) "He was trapped in a difficult situation"
Synset 3: trap (hold or catch as if in a trap) "The gaps between the teeth trap food particles"
Synset 4: pin, trap (to hold fast or prevent from moving) "The child was pinned under the fallen tree"

In the sentence: "Haney felt like shrinking out of sight, but he was already trapped in the corner with the wiry, dark little man."
He is cornered. "Cornered" means caught as if in a trap.
So it is Synset 1 (which is numbered 2 in the prompt).
Wait, could it be Synset 2 (numbered 1 in the prompt)? "place in a confining or embarrassing position". He felt like shrinking out of sight (embarrassed/awkward). But "trapped in the corner" is a physical position.
Usually, "trapped in a corner" -> caught in a trap.
Let's choose 2.
Wait, let's think if "trapped in a corner" could be "pin, trap" (number 4). No, he's not pinned under something.
Could it be 1? "place in a confining or embarrassing position". The definition says "confining OR embarrassing". A corner is confining. But "catch in or as if in a trap" is the primary physical sense.
I will go with 2.
Let me reconsider if "trapped in the corner" is considered "catch in or as if in a trap". Yes, like an animal.
I'll output 2.
Wait, what if the sense is 1? "He was trapped in a difficult situation". "Trapped in the corner" might just be a physical confining position. But "catch in or as if in a trap" applies perfectly to being cornered by someone.
I am confident in 2.

The sentence is: "Haney felt like shrinking out of sight, but he was already trapped in the <t>corner</t> with the wiry, dark little man."
The word "corner" refers to an interior angle formed by two meeting walls, as in a room.
Let's check the senses:
1. a place off to the side of an area
2. the point where two lines meet or intersect
3. an interior angle formed by two meeting walls (e.g., a piano was in one corner of the room)
4. the intersection of two streets

Yes, sense 3 is the correct one.
Number: 3.
There is no ambiguity.
Return only the number.

Sentence: Haney felt like shrinking out of sight, but he was already trapped in the corner with the <t>wiry</t>, dark little man.

Senses:
1. definition=lean and sinewy

3. definition=of hair that resembles wire in stiffness | examples=wiry red hair

reasoning_content:
The sentence describes a "wiry, dark little man".
The word "wiry" here describes a man's physique.
Sense 1: lean and sinewy. This fits a man's physique.
Sense 2: of or relating to wire. Doesn't fit.
Sense 3: of hair that resembles wire. Doesn't fit (it's describing the man, not his hair, especially since "dark little man" refers to the whole person, and "wiry" is a common descriptor for a lean, tough build).

Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct sense.
Number: 1.

The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "little" in the given sentence.
Sentence: Haney felt like shrinking out of sight, but he was already trapped in the corner with the wiry, dark <t>little</t> man.

6. low in stature; not tall (he was short and stocky)
7. lowercase (little a)
8. small in a way that arouses feelings (a nice little job)

In the sentence, "little" modifies "man". The man is "wiry, dark little man". This refers to his physical stature, meaning he is short or small in size.
Sense 6 is "low in stature; not tall".
Let's double check.
"wiry, dark little man" -> refers to a short man.
Sense 1: limited in number/quantity/extent (usually for things, like a little room, a little while).
Sense 6: low in stature; not tall. Example: "he was short and stocky".

Therefore, Sense 6 is the correct one.
Let's review the options.
1: a little dining room
2: little rain
3: children/animals

5: little voice
6: low in stature; not tall
7: lowercase
8: arouses feelings

The word is "began".
The sense is "take the first step or steps in carrying out an action" - he began to wish.

2. have a beginning, in a temporal, spatial, or evaluative sense
3. set in motion, cause to start
4. begin to speak or say
5. be the first item or point
6. have a beginning, of a temporal event

Let's double check.
Sense 1: take the first step or steps in carrying out an action. Examples: We began working at dawn. Who will begin?

The sentence is: "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing."
The word is "wish".
Senses:
1. hope for; have a wish | I wish I could go home now
2. prefer or wish to do something | Do you care to try this dish?
3. make or express a wish | I wish that Christmas were over
4. feel or express a desire or hope concerning the future or fortune of
5. order politely; express a wish for
6. invoke upon | wish you a nice evening

Wait, "wish that he hadn't shouted" -> expresses a wish about the past (regret).
Let's look at Sense 1: "hope for; have a wish"
Sense 3: "make or express a wish" -> "I wish that Christmas were over"

Wait, "He began to wish that..." -> "wish" here means to have a wish or hope for, or express a wish.
Actually, WordNet senses for "wish":
1. wish, desire, want (hope for; have a wish) "I wish I could go home now"
2. wish, care, like (prefer or wish to do something) "Do you care to try this dish?"
3. wish (make or express a wish) "I wish that Christmas were over"
4. wish (feel or express a desire or hope concerning the future or fortune of)
5. wish (order politely; express a wish for)
6. wish, invoke (invoke upon) "wish you a nice evening"

In the sentence: "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted..."
Is it sense 1 or 3?
Sense 1: "I wish I could go home now" - internal state, hoping for something.
Sense 3: "I wish that Christmas were over" - making or expressing a wish.
Wait, "He began to wish that..." usually aligns with Sense 1 (have a wish) or Sense 3?
Let's check the exact WordNet examples.
Sense 1: wish, desire, want (hope for; have a wish) "I wish I could go home now"
Sense 3: wish (make or express a wish) "I wish that Christmas were over"

Wait, "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted..." - this is an internal feeling, "have a wish".
Let's consider "wish that he hadn't shouted".
Could it be 1? "hope for; have a wish".
Could it be 3? "make or express a wish".
Usually, "wish that [clause]" is Sense 1 or 3.
Let's look at similar examples. "I wish I could go home now" (Sense 1). "I wish that Christmas were over" (Sense 3).
"He began to wish that he hadn't shouted..." -> "began to wish" implies an internal state developing, so "have a wish" (Sense 1). You don't "begin to express a wish" internally without saying it, but "began to wish" means "began to have a wish".
Therefore, Sense 1 is more appropriate for "began to wish".

Wait, let's rethink:
WordNet:
wish (hope for; have a wish) "I wish I could go home now"
wish (make or express a wish) "I wish that Christmas were over"

Is "He began to wish that..." Sense 1 or Sense 3?
In WordNet, "wish" as a verb:
1. wish, desire, want -- (hope for; have a wish; "I wish I could go home now")
2. wish, care, like -- (prefer or wish to do something; "Do you care to try this dish?"; "Would you care to join us?")
3. wish -- (make or express a wish; "I wish that Christmas were over")
4. wish -- (feel or express a desire or hope concerning the future or fortune of)
5. wish -- (order politely; express a wish for)
6. wish, invoke -- (invoke upon; "wish you a nice evening")

"He began to wish that he hadn't shouted..."
If I have to choose between 1 and 3. "began to wish" -> internal state -> 1.
Also, the construction "wish that" is in both. But "I wish I could go home now" is sense 1.
Let's choose 1.

Wait, looking closely at Sense 1: "hope for; have a wish".
Sense 3: "make or express a wish".
"He began to wish" -> he started having a wish. So 1.

Let's double check.
"I wish I could go home now" -> present tense, internal.
"I wish that Christmas were over" -> present tense, could be internal or expressed.
But "began to wish" strongly points to the internal state "have a wish". So 1.
I will return 1.
End of thought.

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

Sentence: He began to wish that he hadn't <t>shouted</t> that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing.

2. definition=utter a sudden loud cry | examples=she cried with pain when the doctor inserted the needle
3. definition=utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy | examples=`I won!' he exclaimed
4. definition=use foul or abusive language towards | examples=The actress abused the policeman who gave her a parking ticket

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "He began to wish that he hadn't <t>shouted</t> that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing."
The word is "shouted".
Context: "when the truck bore down through the crossing." This implies a sudden, alarming situation where someone would yell out in fear, warning, or surprise.
Let's look at the senses:
1. utter in a loud voice; talk in a loud voice (usually denoting characteristic manner of speaking)
2. utter a sudden loud cry (e.g., she cried with pain...) -> wait, "shout" as a sudden loud cry.
3. utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy (e.g., 'I won!' he exclaimed) -> "exclaim" is usually this sense. Wait, the word is "shout". Is sense 3 for "shout"? Let's check WordNet.
WordNet senses for "shout":
1. shout, shout out, cry, yell, scream, holler, hollo, squall (utter in a loud voice; talk in a loud voice (usually denoting characteristic manner of speaking)) "My grandmother is hard of hearing--you'll have to shout"
2. shout, cry (utter a sudden loud cry) "she cried with pain when the doctor inserted the needle"; "I yelled to her from the window but she couldn't hear me"
3. exclaim, shout, cry (utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy) "`I won!' he exclaimed"; "`Help!' she cried out in terror" -> wait, the examples in sense 3 are for exclaim/cry/shout.
4. abuse, clapperclaw, blackguard, shout (use foul or abusive language towards) "The actress abused the policeman..."

In the sentence: "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing."
He shouted because the truck bore down (a sudden, alarming event). This aligns with a sudden loud cry, or uttering aloud with horror/surprise.
Wait, "shout" in the context of a truck bearing down... he probably yelled out in fear or as a warning.
Let's differentiate sense 1 and sense 2.
Sense 1: talk in a loud voice.
Sense 2: utter a sudden loud cry. "she cried with pain...", "I yelled to her..."
Sense 3: exclaim. "`I won!' he exclaimed"

Actually, "shout" in "shouted that other evening when the truck bore down" means he let out a sudden loud cry (of fear, warning, etc.).
Let's search for the exact sentence: "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing."
This sounds like a quote from a book. Maybe Stephen King? Or similar.
If it's a sudden loud cry out of fear/warning, it's Sense 2 (utter a sudden loud cry).
Wait, could it be Sense 1? No, it's not his characteristic manner of speaking.
Could it be Sense 3? Exclaim is usually for words. Did he shout words? "shouted that other evening" - doesn't specify words. Just "shouted".
"utter a sudden loud cry" fits "shouted" without an object.
Let's check the examples for Sense 2: "she cried with pain when the doctor inserted the needle". The synset is {shout, cry}.
Let's check Sense 1: {shout, shout out, cry, yell, scream, holler, hollo, squall}.
Let's check Sense 3: {exclaim, shout, cry}.

Wait, often "shout" as a reaction to danger is Sense 2: "utter a sudden loud cry".
Let's consider "shout" in WordNet.
Sense 1: shout (utter in a loud voice; talk in a loud voice (usually denoting characteristic manner of speaking)) "My grandmother is hard of hearing--you'll have to shout"
Sense 2: shout, cry (utter a sudden loud cry) "she cried with pain when the doctor inserted the needle"; "I yelled to her from the window but she couldn't hear me" -> wait, the example "I yelled..." has "yelled", but the synset includes shout, cry, yell? No, the example in the prompt for sense 2 is just "she cried with pain when the doctor inserted the needle".
Sense 3: exclaim, shout, cry (utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy) "`I won!' he exclaimed"

If he "shouted" when the truck bore down, it's a sudden loud cry of horror/fear. Sense 2 is "utter a sudden loud cry". Sense 3 is "utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy". But Sense 3 is primarily "exclaim". "Shout" is in the synset, but "exclaim" is the main word.
Wait, "shout" without an object (he hadn't shouted) usually maps to Sense 1 or Sense 2. Since it's a sudden event, Sense 2 is "utter a sudden loud cry".
Let's re-read the sentence. "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing."
Is there a known dataset for this? This looks like the Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) task, likely from the SemCor or similar corpus, or the WordNet glosses.
Actually, in the Unified WSD or similar datasets, "shout" in this context is probably Sense 2.
Wait, let's look at the senses again.
1. utter in a loud voice; talk in a loud voice...
2. utter a sudden loud cry
3. utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy
If he shouted when the truck bore down, it's a sudden loud cry (of fear/warning).
I will bet on Sense 2.

Let me double check Sense 2 vs Sense 3.
Sense 3 examples: "`I won!' he exclaimed". This implies uttering words.
Sense 2 examples: "she cried with pain...". This implies a non-verbal or sudden vocalization.
When a truck bears down, one might shout "Look out!" or just scream/shout. "utter a sudden loud cry" fits perfectly.
Let's choose 2.
Wait, could it be 1? "talk in a loud voice". No.
Could it be 3? "utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy". The definition explicitly mentions "horror". A truck bearing down causes horror. But the example is "`I won!' he exclaimed", which is joy/surprise, and "exclaim" is the lemma. The lemma "shout" is in the synset {exclaim, shout, cry}. But usually, "shout" as a sudden cry of fear is Sense 2 {shout, cry} "utter a sudden loud cry".
Actually, I'll go with 2.

Let me think if "shout" in this sentence might be classified as 2.
"He began to wish that he hadn't shouted..."
Yes, 2 seems the most appropriate for a sudden, involuntary or urgent loud cry in a dangerous situation.
I will output 2.

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

Sentence: He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other <t>evening</t> when the truck bore down through the crossing.

Senses:
1. definition=the latter part of the day (the period of decreasing daylight from late afternoon until nightfall) | examples=he enjoyed the evening light across the lake
2. definition=a later concluding time period | examples=it was the evening of the Roman Empire
3. definition=the early part of night (from dinner until bedtime) spent in a special way | examples=an evening at the opera

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other <t>evening</t> when the truck bore down through the crossing."
The word "evening" refers to a specific time of day, specifically the latter part of the day (late afternoon until nightfall) when the truck bore down through the crossing.
Sense 1: the latter part of the day (the period of decreasing daylight from late afternoon until nightfall).
Sense 2: a later concluding time period.
Sense 3: the early part of night (from dinner until bedtime) spent in a special way.

In the sentence, "that other evening" refers to a specific day's evening, the time of day when the event (truck bearing down) happened. It's not a metaphorical "evening" (Sense 2), nor is it an "evening spent in a special way" like "an evening at the opera" (Sense 3). It's just the time of day. Thus, Sense 1.
Let's double check. "that other evening" -> time of day. Sense 1.
Wait, could it be 1? Yes.
Sense 1 definition: the latter part of the day...
Sense 3 definition: the early part of night... spent in a special way.
Clearly Sense 1.
Number: 1.
End of thought.

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

Sentence: He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other evening when the <t>truck</t> bore down through the crossing.

Senses:
1. definition=an automotive vehicle suitable for hauling
2. definition=a handcart that has a frame with two low wheels and a ledge at the bottom and handles at the top; used to move crates or other heavy objects

reasoning_content:
The sentence describes a "truck" that "bore down through the crossing."
A crossing usually refers to a railway crossing or a pedestrian crossing on a road.
"bore down through the crossing" implies a large, motorized vehicle, like a large truck (lorry) or a semi-truck, moving along a road or railway.
Sense 1: an automotive vehicle suitable for hauling.
Sense 2: a handcart that has a frame with two low wheels...
Clearly, Sense 1 is the correct sense, as a handcart doesn't "bear down through a crossing" in the context of a vehicle approaching.

Let's double check.
"truck bore down through the crossing" -> automotive vehicle.
Sense 1.
End of thought.
