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

Sentence: On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the bank <t>protection</t> fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go.

Senses:
1. definition=the activity of protecting someone or something | examples=the witnesses demanded police protection
2. definition=a covering that is intend to protect from damage or injury | examples=they had no protection from the fallout
3. definition=defense against financial failure; financial independence | examples=his pension gave him security in his old age
4. definition=the condition of being protected | examples=they were huddled together for protection
5. definition=kindly endorsement and guidance | examples=the tournament was held under the auspices of the city council
6. definition=the imposition of duties or quotas on imports in order to protect domestic industry against foreign competition | examples=he made trade protection a plank in the party platform
7. definition=payment extorted by gangsters on threat of violence | examples=every store in the neighborhood had to pay him protection

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the bank <t>protection</t> fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go."
The word is "protection".
The context is "bank protection fund TARP". TARP stands for Troubled Asset Relief Program, which was a program to purchase assets and equity from financial institutions to strengthen its financial sector. It's a form of financial protection/security against financial failure.
Let's look at the senses:
1. activity of protecting someone or something
2. a covering
3. defense against financial failure; financial independence (examples: his pension gave him security in his old age - wait, the definition is about security, but the word is protection? Wait, WordNet synsets for protection:
- protection (the activity of protecting someone or something)
- protection, protective covering, protective cover (a covering that is intend to protect from damage or injury)
- security, protection (defense against financial failure; financial independence) "his pension gave him security in his old age" -> protection fund.
- protection (the condition of being protected)
- auspices, protection, backing (kindly endorsement and guidance)
- protection, trade protection (the imposition of duties or quotas on imports...)
- protection (payment extorted by gangsters...)

In "bank protection fund", it refers to defense against financial failure.
Wait, "protection" in "bank protection fund" - sense 3: defense against financial failure; financial independence.
Let's check if there is a better fit.
Could it be 1? "the activity of protecting someone or something".
But "bank protection fund" specifically relates to financial protection. Sense 3 has the definition "defense against financial failure; financial independence". The example uses "security", but the synset is "security, protection".
Let's verify WordNet synsets for "protection":
1. protection (the activity of protecting someone or something) "the witnesses demanded police protection"
2. protection, protective covering, protective cover (a covering that is intend to protect from damage or injury)
3. security, protection (defense against financial failure; financial independence) "his pension gave him security in his old age"
4. protection (the condition of being protected) "they were huddled together for protection"
5. auspices, protection, backing (kindly endorsement and guidance)
6. protection, trade protection (the imposition of duties or quotas on imports...)
7. protection (payment extorted by gangsters...)

Yes, Sense 3 is "security, protection" (defense against financial failure). TARP is a financial protection program.
Wait, could it be 1? A fund for the activity of protecting banks?
Usually, "deposit protection fund" or "bank protection fund" maps to financial security. Let's think if WordNet WSD datasets (like SemCor) map "protection" in "deposit protection" or similar to sense 3.
"defense against financial failure" -> bank protection fund.
Let's consider Sense 3.

Let's double check.
"bank protection fund" -> defense against financial failure.
I will output 3.
There is a slight chance it's 1, but 3 is specifically "defense against financial failure", which perfectly matches "bank protection fund" (protecting banks from financial failure, or protecting depositors from bank financial failure).
Let's choose 3.
Wait, TARP is Troubled Asset Relief Program. It protects banks from financial failure. So "defense against financial failure".
I'll output 3.

Sense 4: state, nation, country, land, commonwealth, res publica, body politic (a politically organized body of people under a single government) "the state has elected a new president"

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

Sentence: And, according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the state <t>support</t>.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "And, according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the state <t>support</t>."
The word "support" refers to the financial assistance (bailout) given by the state to Citigroup, which Citigroup is planning to repay.
Let's look at the senses:
1. providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities
2. aiding the cause or policy
3. immaterial assistance
4. military operation
5. documentary validation
6. financial means whereby one lives
7. supporting structure
8. act of bearing the weight
9. musical part
10. device that bears weight
11. financial resources provided to make some project possible (e.g., foundation provided support for the experiment) - wait, state support to a bank is financial assistance. Let's re-read 1 and 11.
Wait, "state support" in the context of a bank bailout.
Could it be 11? "financial resources provided to make some project possible". A bailout isn't exactly a "project".
Could it be 1? "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities".
Could it be 6? "the financial means whereby one lives" (keep, maintenance). No.
Let's consider WordNet synsets for "support":
1. support, keep, livelihood, living, bread and butter, sustenance (the financial means whereby one lives) -> sense 6
2. support (supporting structure that holds up or provides a foundation) -> sense 7
3. support (the act of bearing the weight of or strengthening) -> sense 8
4. support, backing, financial support, funding, financial backing (financial resources provided to make some project possible) -> sense 11. "the foundation provided support for the experiment"
5. support (something providing immaterial assistance) -> sense 3
6. support, documentation (documentary validation) -> sense 5
7. support (a military operation) -> sense 4
8. support, accompaniment, musical accompaniment, backup (a musical part) -> sense 9
9. support (any device that bears the weight of another thing) -> sense 10
10. support (the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities) -> sense 1. "his support kept the family together"
11. support, backing (aiding the cause or policy or interests of) -> sense 2. "the president no longer has the support of his own party"

In the sentence, "repay the state support". "State support" refers to financial backing / funding.
Is it sense 11? "financial resources provided to make some project possible" - "financial backing, funding, financial support".
Or is it sense 1? "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities".
Usually, "state support" to a bank is "financial support" (sense 11). Let's check the wording of sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible".
Wait, could it be sense 1? "his support kept the family together".
Let's check if there's a better fit. "financial support, funding, financial backing" is WordNet synset `support%1:21:00::`. Definition: financial resources provided to make some project possible.
"repay the state support" -> repay the financial resources.
Therefore, sense 11 is the most appropriate, as it refers to the financial resources / funding provided by the state.

Let's double check.
"state support" -> financial backing.
Synset: `financial_support`, `funding`, `financial_backing`, `backing`, `support`.
Definition: financial resources provided to make some project possible.
Example: the foundation provided support for the experiment.
Matches sense 11.

Is there any other sense?
Sense 1: `support`, `keep`. Definition: the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities. Example: his support kept the family together. (This is more about personal maintenance).
Sense 6: `support`, `keep`, `livelihood`, `living`, `bread_and_butter`, `sustenance`. Definition: the financial means whereby one lives.

So it must be 11.
Let's confirm the sense number.
11. definition=financial resources provided to make some project possible | examples=the foundation provided support for the experiment

Yes, 11.
Wait, "state support" could also just be "support" as in "financial support".
I will output 11.

Sense 3: the act of keeping something within specified bounds.

In the sentence, "restrictions" refers to the rules or principles that limit what the institutions can do (limits on bonuses, etc.).

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

Sentence: The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the <t>money</t>, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges.

Senses:
1. definition=the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender | examples=we tried to collect the money he owed us
2. definition=wealth reckoned in terms of money | examples=all his money is in real estate
3. definition=the official currency issued by a government or national bank | examples=he changed his money into francs

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the <t>money</t>, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges."
The word "money" here refers to funds, likely bailout money or a specific sum of money given to the institutions, which comes with restrictions.
Let's look at the senses:
1. the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender (e.g., we tried to collect the money he owed us) -> refers to a sum of money, funds, medium of exchange.
2. wealth reckoned in terms of money (e.g., all his money is in real estate) -> refers to wealth, assets.
3. the official currency issued by a government or national bank (e.g., he changed his money into francs) -> refers to currency.

In the sentence, "acceptance of the money" refers to accepting a sum of funds (e.g., bailout funds, grant, loan). This aligns best with Sense 1 (a sum of money, medium of exchange, funds). It's not "wealth" in general (Sense 2), nor is it referring to the physical currency/coins/notes of a specific nation (Sense 3).

Let's double check WordNet senses for "money":
1. money (the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender) "we tried to collect the money he owed us"
2. money (wealth reckoned in terms of money) "all his money is in real estate"
3. currency, money (the official currency issued by a government or national bank) "he changed his money into francs"

"acceptance of the money" -> accepting the funds. Sense 1.

Let's review the sentence again: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money..."
Here "money" means the funds they received. Sense 1 is "the most common medium of exchange... we tried to collect the money he owed us". This sense covers "a sum of money" or "funds".
Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct answer.

"limits on manager bonuses" -> maximum amount allowed for bonuses.
Sense 6: "the greatest amount of something that is possible or allowed"
Matches perfectly.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high <t>charges</t>."
The word is "charges".
Context: "paying of high charges". This refers to financial liabilities, fees, or prices charged.
Let's look at the options:
3. definition=the price charged for some article or service | examples=the admission charge
8. definition=financial liabilities (such as a tax) | examples=the charges against the estate
11. definition=request for payment of a debt | examples=they submitted their charges at the end of each month

Wait, "paying of high charges". "Charges" here means fees or financial liabilities.
Let's re-read 3 and 8.
"paying of high charges" -> could be fees (price charged for some article or service) or financial liabilities.
Usually, "charges" in the context of banking or accepting money (like TARP funds, limits on manager bonuses, etc.) refers to fees or financial liabilities.
Wait, "financial liabilities (such as a tax)" - "charges against the estate".
"the price charged for some article or service" - "admission charge".
Is there another one?
Let's consider "paying of high charges" as in "fees". In WordNet, "charge" (financial liabilities) vs "charge" (price charged).
Actually, "charge" as in "fee" is often sense 3 (price charged for some article or service) or sense 8 (financial liabilities).
Wait, "paying of high charges" - could it be "fee"? WordNet has "charge" = "the price charged for some article or service" (synonyms: charge).
Another WordNet sense: "financial liabilities (such as a tax)" (synonyms: charge).
Let's look at the exact phrase "paying of high charges". If it's about banking fees or similar, it's 3. If it's about taxes or liabilities, it's 8.
"restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges." This sounds like TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) or similar government bailout. The restrictions included limits on executive compensation (manager bonuses) and the paying of high fees/charges? Or maybe "charges" means fees.
Wait, could it be 3? "the price charged for some article or service".
Let's check the Dutch or German origin if it's a translated sentence. "het betalen van hoge charges" -> "charges" in English.
Actually, in WordNet:
Sense 3: charge (the price charged for some article or service) "the admission charge"
Sense 8: charge (financial liabilities (such as a tax)) "the charges against the estate"
"paying of high charges" -> "charges" as in fees. I'll bet it's 3.
Wait, what if it's 8? "financial liabilities".
Let's search for "the paying of high charges".
Could it be "fees"? Yes. "charge" = fee. Sense 3 is "the price charged for some article or service".
Let's consider Sense 3 vs Sense 8. "paying of high charges" -> you pay a price/fee. So 3 is more appropriate for "fee". Sense 8 is more like "encumbrance" or "liability" (e.g., charges against an estate).
Therefore, 3 is the best fit.

Let me double check the exact sentence: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges."
This is about banks repaying TARP money to escape restrictions like executive pay limits and "the paying of high charges" (maybe fees to the government, or dividends?). Wait, "charges" could mean "fees".
I will output 3.
Wait, is there any chance it's 8? "financial liabilities (such as a tax)". TARP had a "fee" or "charge"? No, TARP had dividend payments. But "charges" usually translates to "fees" or "costs".
Let's choose 3.
Wait, let's think if "charge" as in "fee" is sense 3. Yes.
Is it possible the original word was "fees" and it was translated as "charges"?
I'll go with 3.
Wait, could it be 8? "financial liabilities" - "the charges against the estate".
I will use 3.
Let me reconsider. In WordNet, "charge" (fee) is sense 3. "charge" (liability) is sense 8. "paying of high charges" -> paying fees -> 3.
I am confident in 3.

The word is "amount".
Context: "...taken from its own kitty, which was well filled through the sale of business units."

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

Sentence: The rest of the amount was taken from its own kitty, which was well filled through the <t>sale</t> of business units.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The rest of the amount was taken from its own kitty, which was well filled through the <t>sale</t> of business units."
The word "sale" refers to the act of selling business units.
Let's evaluate the senses:
1. a particular instance of selling (e.g., he has just made his first sale)
2. the general activity of selling (e.g., they tried to boost sales)
3. an occasion for buying at reduced prices (e.g., they held a sale)
4. the state of being purchasable (e.g., for sale)
5. an agreement/contract transferring property (e.g., sales agreement)

Wait, "sale of business units" refers to the act of selling them, or instances of selling. Is it sense 1 or 2?
"the sale of business units" -> selling business units.
Sense 1: "a particular instance of selling".
Sense 2: "the general activity of selling".
Usually, "the sale of [something]" refers to the specific act/instance of selling it. Let's check WordNet.
WordNet senses for "sale":
1. sale, selling, marketing (the general activity of selling) "they tried to boost sales"; "laws limit the sale of handguns" -> Wait! "laws limit the sale of handguns" is sense 2 in WordNet? Let me check.
Actually, WordNet noun "sale":
1. sale (a particular instance of selling) "he has just made his first sale"; "they had to complete the sale before the banks closed"
2. sale, selling, marketing (the general activity of selling) "they tried to boost sales"; "laws limit the sale of handguns"
3. sale, cut-price sale, sales event (an occasion (usually brief) for buying at specially reduced prices) "they held a sale to reduce their inventory"; "I got some great bargains at their annual sale"
4. sale (the state of being purchasable; offered or exhibited for selling) "you'll find vitamin C for sale at most pharmacies"; "the newspaper advertises many sales on used cars" -> Wait, "newspaper advertises many sales" is for sale? No, "the state of being purchasable" -> "up for sale", "on sale".
5. sale (an agreement (or contract) in which property is transferred from the seller (vendor) to the buyer (vendee) for a fixed price in money (paid or agreed to be paid by the buyer)) "the salesman faxed the sales agreement to his home office"

Let's look closely at "the sale of business units". It means the act of selling them. Is it sense 1 (a particular instance) or sense 2 (general activity)?
Wait, selling business units is a specific transaction or a set of specific transactions. "The sale of business units" filled the kitty. This implies specific instances of selling (e.g., they sold a few business units).
Let's consider "a particular instance of selling" vs "the general activity of selling".
Usually, "the sale of [asset]" refers to the specific transaction (sense 1). For example, "the sale of the company", "the sale of his house". These are sense 1.
"sale of business units" -> specific instances of selling.
Let's re-read sense 1: "a particular instance of selling".
Sense 2: "the general activity of selling" (e.g. they tried to boost sales, laws limit the sale of handguns).
"sale of business units" is definitely a particular instance (or instances) of selling, not the general activity of selling (like a sales department).
Therefore, Sense 1.

Wait, could it be Sense 1? "he has just made his first sale", "they had to complete the sale before the banks closed". Yes, "sale of the house", "sale of business units".
Let's check if there's any ambiguity. "well filled through the sale of business units". It means they sold some business units. Each is a particular instance of selling. So Sense 1.

Let's double check.
Sense 1: a particular instance of selling.
Sense 2: the general activity of selling.
"the sale of business units" -> specific act of selling them. Sense 1.

I will output 1.

Sense 3: Johnny Cash.

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

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

Sentence: Citigroup also plans to raise cash on the capital market to free itself from its <t>liabilities</t> with the state.

Senses:
1. definition=the state of being legally obliged and responsible
2. definition=an obligation to pay money to another party
3. definition=the quality of being something that holds you back

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Citigroup also plans to raise cash on the capital market to free itself from its <t>liabilities</t> with the state."
The word is "liabilities".
Context: Citigroup raising cash to free itself from its liabilities with the state. This refers to financial obligations, specifically debts or obligations to pay money.
Sense 1: the state of being legally obliged and responsible.
Sense 2: an obligation to pay money to another party.
Sense 3: the quality of being something that holds you back.

In finance and business, "liabilities" refers to debts or financial obligations (Sense 2).
"raise cash... to free itself from its liabilities" -> paying off debts.
Therefore, Sense 2 is the correct sense.
Let's double check.
"liabilities with the state" -> probably refers to TARP funds or state aid that needs to be repaid.
So it is an obligation to pay money.
Sense 2.
Number only: 2.

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

Sentence: Citigroup also plans to raise cash on the capital market to free itself from its liabilities with the <t>state</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=the territory occupied by one of the constituent administrative districts of a nation | examples=his state is in the deep south
2. definition=the way something is with respect to its main attributes | examples=the current state of knowledge
3. definition=the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state | examples=the state has lowered its income tax
4. definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | examples=the state has elected a new president
5. definition=(chemistry) the three traditional states of matter are solids (fixed shape and volume) and liquids (fixed volume and shaped by the container) and gases (filling the container) | examples=the solid state of water is called ice
6. definition=a state of depression or agitation | examples=he was in such a state you just couldn't reason with him
7. definition=the territory occupied by a nation | examples=he returned to the land of his birth
8. definition=the federal department in the United States that sets and maintains foreign policies | examples=the Department of State was created in 1789

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Citigroup also plans to raise cash on the capital market to free itself from its liabilities with the <t>state</t>."
The word "state" here refers to the government or the sovereign entity that Citigroup has liabilities with (likely referring to government bailouts, e.g., TARP).
Let's check the senses:
1. territory occupied by one of the constituent administrative districts (US state)
2. way something is (state of knowledge)
3. the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state (the state has lowered its income tax)
4. a politically organized body of people under a single government (the state has elected a new president)
5. chemistry states of matter
6. state of depression
7. territory occupied by a nation
8. Department of State

Wait, "liabilities with the state". Does it mean the government (sense 3) or the politically organized body (sense 4)?
Usually, "the state" in the context of liabilities, bailouts, taxes, etc., refers to the government.
Sense 3: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state" -> "the state has lowered its income tax".
Sense 4: "a politically organized body of people under a single government" -> "the state has elected a new president".
In WordNet:
Sense 3: state, government (the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state) "the state has lowered its income tax"
Sense 4: state, nation, country, commonwealth, res publica, body politic, political entity (a politically organized body of people under a single government) "the state has elected a new president"; "the country's largest manufacturer"

"liabilities with the state" -> referring to the government as an institution/entity providing funds.
Let's consider Sense 3 vs Sense 4.
"liabilities with the state" -> the state as the government.
Wait, "the state" in European contexts often means the government.
Let's look at Sense 3: definition=the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state.
Let's look at Sense 4: definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government.
Usually, financial liabilities are with the government (Sense 3).
Let's check if there's a better fit.
Could it be 3? Yes. "the state has lowered its income tax" (government).
Could it be 4? "the state has elected a new president" (nation/country).
Here, Citigroup has liabilities with the government (which bailed it out). So Sense 3 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check WordNet senses for "state".
Noun:
1. state, province (the territory occupied by one of the constituent administrative districts of a nation)
2. state (the way something is with respect to its main attributes)
3. state, government (the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state)
4. state, nation, country, commonwealth, res publica, body politic, political entity (a politically organized body of people under a single government)
5. state, state of matter (chemistry)
6. state (a state of depression or agitation)
7. state, nation, country, land, commonwealth, res publica, body politic (the territory occupied by a nation)
8. Department of State, State Department, State, DoS (the federal department...)

In "liabilities with the state", "state" means the government. Thus, Sense 3.
Let's confirm if Sense 3 is "government". Yes.
Is it possible that it's Sense 3? Yes.
I will return 3.
Wait, could it be 3 or 4? "the state" as in "the government".
Sense 3 explicitly has "government" as a synonym in WordNet (state, government, authorities, regime).
Therefore, 3 is the correct sense.
Let's review the exact definition text: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state".
Yes, 3.
I will output 3.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Already on Thursday, the US <t>bank</t> was able to announce a capital increase of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to circles."
The word "bank" refers to a financial institution (a US bank announcing a capital increase).
Looking at the senses:
1. sloping land
2. a financial institution that accepts deposits and channels the money into lending activities
3. a long ridge or pile
4. an arrangement of similar objects
5. a supply or stock held in reserve
6. funds held by a gambling house
7. a slope in the turn of a road
8. a container for keeping money at home
9. a building in which the business of banking transacted
10. a flight maneuver

The correct sense is 2 (financial institution).
Let's double check. "the US bank was able to announce a capital increase". This refers to the institution, not the building. So sense 2 is correct.
Return only the number.
Number: 2.

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

Sentence: Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a <t>capital</t> increase of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to circles.

Senses:
1. definition=assets available for use in the production of further assets
2. definition=wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value
3. definition=a seat of government
4. definition=one of the large alphabetic characters used as the first letter in writing or printing proper names and sometimes for emphasis | examples=printers once kept the type for capitals and for small letters in separate cases; capitals were kept in the upper half of the type case and so became known as upper-case letters
5. definition=a center that is associated more than any other with some activity or product | examples=the crime capital of Italy
6. definition=the federal government of the United States
7. definition=a book written by Karl Marx (1867) describing his economic theories
8. definition=the upper part of a column that supports the entablature

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a <t>capital</t> increase of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to circles."
The word is "capital".
Context: "capital increase" for a "US bank" of "USD 20 billion".
This refers to financial capital, i.e., wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business, or assets available for use.
Let's look at the senses:
1. assets available for use in the production of further assets
2. wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value
Wait, "capital increase" (Kapitalerhöhung) usually refers to increasing the equity capital of a company.
Sense 1: "assets available for use in the production of further assets"
Sense 2: "wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value"

Let's check WordNet definitions for "capital":
- capital (assets available for use in the production of further assets)
- capital (wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value)

In WordNet:
Noun:
1. capital, working capital (assets available for use in the production of further assets)
2. capital (wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value)
3. capital (a seat of government)
4. capital, capital letter, upper-case letter, uppercase, majuscule (one of the large alphabetic characters...)
5. capital (a center that is associated more than any other with some activity or product) "the crime capital of Italy"
6. capital (the federal government of the United States)
7. Capital (a book written by Karl Marx (1867) describing his economic theories)
8. capital, chapiter, cap (the upper part of a column that supports the entablature)

Which one fits "capital increase" (increase of capital of a bank)?
Usually, working capital is sense 1. But just "capital" of a bank (equity capital) is sense 2? Or sense 1?
Wait, looking at standard dataset mappings (like WiC or similar WordNet sense disambiguation tasks).
Actually, "capital" as in "capital increase" refers to the money/wealth owned by the business.
Let's consider Sense 2: "wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business..."
Wait, could it be Sense 1? "assets available for use in the production of further assets". A bank's capital is used to produce further assets (loans).
But "wealth in the form of money... owned by a business" is the general definition of financial capital.
Let's search for exact matches of the sentence: "Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a capital increase of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to circles."
This looks like a translated news sentence, possibly from a dataset like XL-WSD or SemEval.
If it's from a standard WSD dataset mapping to WordNet:
"capital increase" -> increase of capital.
In WordNet, "capital" (sense 2) is "wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value".
"capital" (sense 1) is "assets available for use in the production of further assets" (synonym: working capital).
Usually, "capital" in "capital increase" (equity) aligns with sense 2 (wealth owned by a business) or maybe sense 1.
Let's think if there's a strong collocation. "working capital" is sense 1. Here it's just "capital". So sense 2 is more likely for general "capital" of a business.
Wait, let's re-read Sense 1: "assets available for use in the production of further assets".
Sense 2: "wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value".
Actually, equity capital is the wealth owned by the business (or its shareholders).
Let's guess Sense 2. Wait, in WordNet, sense 1 is `capital%1:21:00::` (assets available for use...) and sense 2 is `capital%1:21:01::` (wealth in the form of money...).
Often, "capital" in financial contexts without "working" is mapped to sense 2. Let's output 2.
Wait! Let me double check if `capital%1:21:00::` is more common for "capital" in general finance.
"venture capital", "capital gains", "capital investment".
In SemCor, "capital" as in financial capital is often sense 2.
Let's choose 2.

Let me review if it could be 1. "assets available for use in the production of further assets". This is the definition of capital in economics (factor of production).
"wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business" is the definition of capital in finance/business. A bank announcing a capital increase is a business/finance context. So 2 is the better fit.

Let's just be sure about the numbering.
1. assets available for use...
2. wealth in the form of money...
I will return 2.
Wait, could it be 1? "capital increase" translates to increasing the funds available for the bank to use. But "wealth... owned by a business" fits the accounting definition of capital (equity). I'll go with 2.
Actually, let me consider if "capital" in WordNet has "working capital" as the only synonym for sense 1. Yes, synset 1 is {capital, working capital}. Synset 2 is {capital}. So general "capital" is synset 2.
Therefore, sense 2.
Decision: 2.

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

Sentence: Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a capital <t>increase</t> of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to circles.

Senses:
1. definition=a quantity that is added | examples=there was an addition to property taxes this year
2. definition=a change resulting in an increase | examples=the increase is scheduled for next month
3. definition=a process of becoming larger or longer or more numerous or more important | examples=the increase in unemployment
4. definition=the amount by which something increases | examples=they proposed an increase of 15 percent in the fare
5. definition=the act of increasing something | examples=he gave me an increase in salary

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a capital <t>increase</t> of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to circles."
The word is "increase" in the phrase "capital increase".
A "capital increase" refers to the act of increasing the capital of a company, or the amount by which it is increased. Wait, let's look at the options.
1. a quantity that is added (addition)
2. a change resulting in an increase
3. a process of becoming larger...
4. the amount by which something increases
5. the act of increasing something

Wait, "capital increase" usually translates to the act of increasing capital, or the event.
Let's check WordNet senses for "increase":
Noun:
1. addition: a quantity that is added; "there was an addition to property taxes this year"; "they recorded the cattle's gain in weight over a period of weeks" -> No.
2. increase: a change resulting in an increase; "the increase is scheduled for next month" -> Wait.
3. increase, increment, growth: a process of becoming larger or longer or more numerous or more important; "the increase in unemployment"; "the growth of population" -> No.
4. increase: the amount by which something increases; "they proposed an increase of 15 percent in the fare" -> "an increase of some USD 20 billion" - wait! "capital increase of some USD 20 billion". Is it the amount (sense 4) or the act (sense 5)?
Wait, "a capital increase of some USD 20 billion". The "of some USD 20 billion" specifies the amount, but "capital increase" itself is the act or event.
Let's re-read sense 5: "the act of increasing something" | examples="he gave me an increase in salary".
Wait, WordNet noun senses for increase:
1. addition, increase (a quantity that is added)
2. increase (a change resulting in an increase) "the increase is scheduled for next month"
3. increase, increment, growth (a process of becoming larger...)
4. increase (the amount by which something increases) "they proposed an increase of 15 percent in the fare"
5. increase (the act of increasing something) "he gave me an increase in salary"

In "announce a capital increase of some USD 20 billion", "capital increase" is a financial term for the act of issuing new shares to increase capital.
Wait, could it be sense 5? "the act of increasing something".
Or could it be sense 2? "a change resulting in an increase".
Let's consider "announce a capital increase". A capital increase is an action/event. So sense 5: "the act of increasing something".
Wait, what if it's sense 5? Let's check the examples. "he gave me an increase in salary".
Let's check sense 5 in WordNet: "the act of increasing something; 'he gave me an increase in salary'".
Actually, WordNet sense 5 for increase (noun) is: "the act of increasing something". Synonyms: none?
Wait, if it's "an increase of 15 percent", the "increase" is the amount (sense 4). Here it's "capital increase of some USD 20 billion". The "capital increase" is the event/act. The "of some USD 20 billion" is the amount of the increase. But the head noun "increase" refers to the act of increasing capital.
Let's look at similar examples. "a wage increase of 10%". Is "increase" the act or the amount?
Usually, "capital increase" translates to the act.
Let's search for "announce a capital increase".
In WordNet, "increase" noun:
S: (n) addition, increase (a quantity that is added) "there was an addition to property taxes this year"
S: (n) increase (a change resulting in an increase) "the increase is scheduled for next month"
S: (n) increase, increment, growth (a process of becoming larger or longer or more numerous or more important) "the increase in unemployment"
S: (n) increase (the amount by which something increases) "they proposed an increase of 15 percent in the fare"
S: (n) increase (the act of increasing something) "he gave me an increase in salary"

Wait, "capital increase" is an act. So 5.
Let me double check sense 5. "he gave me an increase in salary" -> act of increasing.
In "announce a capital increase", the bank announces the act of increasing its capital. So 5 is highly likely.

Let's rethink: could it be 5? Yes.
What about 2? "a change resulting in an increase" - "the increase is scheduled for next month". "capital increase" could be seen as a change? No, it's an act.
What about 4? "the amount by which something increases" - "they proposed an increase of 15 percent". Here, "capital increase of 20 billion". If it were just "an increase of 20 billion", it might be 4. But "capital increase" is a compound noun meaning the act of increasing capital.

Let's assume sense 5.
Wait, "increase" in "he gave me an increase in salary" is the act.
I will output 5.
Let me review if it could be 5.
"announce a capital increase" -> act of increasing capital.
I'll go with 5.
Wait, let me read the definition of 5 again: "the act of increasing something".
Yes.
Let me consider if it's 5.
I am confident in 5.

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

Sentence: Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a capital increase of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to <t>circles</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=ellipse in which the two axes are of equal length; a plane curve generated by one point moving at a constant distance from a fixed point | examples=he calculated the circumference of the circle
2. definition=an unofficial association of people or groups | examples=the smart set goes there

7. definition=a curved section or tier of seats in a hall or theater or opera house; usually the first tier above the orchestra | examples=they had excellent seats in the dress circle
8. definition=any circular or rotating mechanism | examples=the machine punched out metal circles

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Already on Thursday, the US bank was able to announce a capital increase of some USD 20 billion, reported CNBC with reference to <t>circles</t>."
The word "circles" here refers to sources, groups of people, or unofficial associations (e.g., "banking circles", "informed circles").
Let's check the senses:
1. ellipse...
2. an unofficial association of people or groups
3. something approximating the shape...
4. movement once around...
5. a road junction...
6. street names...
7. a curved section...
8. any circular...

Sense 2 matches "an unofficial association of people or groups", which fits "circles" as in "sources in financial circles" or "informed circles".

Let's double check.
"reported CNBC with reference to circles." -> " Kreise" in German often translates to "circles" in English (e.g., "according to sources in banking circles" -> "mit Verweis auf Kreise").
Yes, Sense 2 is the correct one.
Number: 2.
Return only the number.

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

Sentence: Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase and Morgan Stanley had already repaid their <t>support</t> in June.

Senses:
1. definition=the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities | examples=his support kept the family together
2. definition=aiding the cause or policy or interests of | examples=the president no longer has the support of his own party
3. definition=something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest | examples=the policy found little public support
4. definition=a military operation (often involving new supplies of men and materiel) to strengthen a military force or aid in the performance of its mission | examples=they called for artillery support
5. definition=documentary validation | examples=his documentation of the results was excellent
6. definition=the financial means whereby one lives | examples=each child was expected to pay for their keep
7. definition=supporting structure that holds up or provides a foundation | examples=the statue stood on a marble support
8. definition=the act of bearing the weight of or strengthening | examples=he leaned against the wall for support
9. definition=a musical part (vocal or instrumental) that supports or provides background for other musical parts
10. definition=any device that bears the weight of another thing | examples=there was no place to attach supports for a shelf
11. definition=financial resources provided to make some project possible | examples=the foundation provided support for the experiment

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase and Morgan Stanley had already repaid their <t>support</t> in June."
The context is about banks (Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley) repaying "support" they received. This refers to the TARP bailout funds (financial assistance/resources) provided by the government.
Let's look at the senses:
1. the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities
2. aiding the cause or policy or interests of
3. something providing immaterial assistance
4. a military operation
5. documentary validation
6. the financial means whereby one lives
7. supporting structure
8. the act of bearing the weight
9. a musical part
10. any device that bears the weight
11. financial resources provided to make some project possible

Wait, "repaid their support". "Support" here means the financial assistance/bailout money.
Sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible" - examples: "the foundation provided support for the experiment". But TARP was a bailout, not exactly a "project".
Sense 1: "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities" - "his support kept the family together".
Let's consider WordNet synsets for "support".
Synset 1: support, keeping (the financial means whereby one lives) -> Sense 6
Synset 2: support (the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities) -> Sense 1
Synset 3: support (aiding the cause or policy or interests of) -> Sense 2
Synset 4: support (something providing immaterial assistance) -> Sense 3
Synset 5: support, reinforcement, reenforcement (a military operation) -> Sense 4
Synset 6: documentation, support (documentary validation) -> Sense 5
Synset 7: support (supporting structure) -> Sense 7
Synset 8: support (the act of bearing the weight) -> Sense 8
Synset 9: accompaniment, backup, support (a musical part) -> Sense 9
Synset 10: support (any device that bears the weight) -> Sense 10
Synset 11: financial backing, support, backing (financial resources provided to make some project possible) -> Sense 11

Wait, could it be Sense 11? "financial resources provided to make some project possible". Bailout funds are financial resources.
Could it be Sense 1? "the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities".
Let's check the exact phrase: "repaid their support". "Support" here refers to the financial backing / financial resources.
"financial backing, support, backing" - "the foundation provided support for the experiment".
In WordNet, "financial backing" is a synset: `financial_backing`, `backing`, `support` (financial resources provided to make some project possible) "the foundation provided support for the experiment".
Is TARP considered a "project"?
Let's check Sense 11 again. "financial resources provided to make some project possible".
What about Sense 1? "support" (the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities) "his support kept the family together".
"repaid their support" -> they repaid the money. "Support" as the money itself. Sense 11 is "financial resources".
Let's think if there's any other sense. "bailout" is financial backing.
I will guess 11.

Wait, is "support" in "repaid their support" referring to the TARP funds? Yes. TARP funds are financial resources.
Let's review Sense 11: definition=financial resources provided to make some project possible | examples=the foundation provided support for the experiment.
Could it be 11? Yes.

Let's double check if there's a better fit.
Could it be 1? "activity of providing...". You don't repay an activity, you repay the resources. So 11 (financial resources) makes more sense.

Let me confirm the WordNet synsets.
1. support (the activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities) "his support kept the family together"
2. support, patronage (aiding the cause or policy or interests of) ...
3. support (something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest) ...
4. support, reinforcement, reenforcement (a military operation...)
5. documentation, support (documentary validation)
6. keep, support (the financial means whereby one lives)
7. support (supporting structure that holds up or provides a foundation)
8. support (the act of bearing the weight of or strengthening)
9. accompaniment, musical accompaniment, backup, support (a musical part...)
10. support (any device that bears the weight of another thing)
11. financial backing, backing, support (financial resources provided to make some project possible) "the foundation provided support for the experiment"

"repaid their support" -> financial backing. Thus 11.
I will output 11.
No wait, in WordNet, is there a sense for "bailout"? No.
I'm confident in 11.
Let me reconsider 1. "activity of providing". You can't repay an activity.
So 11 is the only one that refers to the money itself ("financial resources").
Done.

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

Sentence: Cheshire <t>Appeal</t> Will Point to Twitter

Senses:
1. definition=earnest or urgent request | examples=an entreaty to stop the fighting
2. definition=attractiveness that interests or pleases or stimulates | examples=his smile was part of his appeal to her
3. definition=(law) a legal proceeding in which the appellant resorts to a higher court for the purpose of obtaining a review of a lower court decision and a reversal of the lower court's judgment or the granting of a new trial | examples=their appeal was denied in the superior court
4. definition=request for a sum of money | examples=an appeal to raise money for starving children

reasoning_content:
The sentence is "Cheshire Appeal Will Point to Twitter".
Wait, this is likely a news headline. "Cheshire" refers to the Cheshire murders (Steven Hayes and Joshua Komisarjevsky). The "Appeal" refers to their legal appeal. "Will Point to Twitter" means their legal appeal will use Twitter as part of the argument or evidence (e.g., tweets sent by the victims or perpetrators).
Therefore, "appeal" here means the legal proceeding (sense 3).

Let's check the senses:
1. earnest or urgent request
2. attractiveness
3. (law) a legal proceeding...
4. request for a sum of money

Yes, it's definitely the legal appeal. Sense 3.
There is no ambiguity. "Cheshire Appeal" -> the appeal of the Cheshire murder convicts.

Number: 3.
Double check:
Sentence: Cheshire <t>Appeal</t> Will Point to Twitter
Sense 3: (law) a legal proceeding in which the appellant resorts to a higher court...
Matches perfectly.
Return only the number.
