Target lemma: buckle
Target surface form: buckle
Context:
That's usually how long it takes for the temblors to pass. This time, it just got stronger and then the building started shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed. 12:06 a.m. HRH: I was in the Berkeley Main library when it hit. Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would <t>buckle</t> and shower us with glass. Only a few books fell in the reading room.

3. sense_key=buckle%2:30:00:: | definition=bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat | synonyms=heave, warp | examples=The highway buckled during the heat wave

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "buckle".
Context: "Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass."
The windows are under pressure from the earthquake (temblors, shaking violently).
Sense 1: fasten with a buckle. (No)
Sense 2: fold or collapse. (Synonyms: crumple. Example: His knees buckled.)
Sense 3: bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat. (Synonyms: heave, warp. Example: The highway buckled during the heat wave.)

Wait, windows buckling and showering glass. Does it mean they bend out of shape under pressure, or fold/collapse?
Let's check the examples. "The highway buckled during the heat wave" (bend out of shape under pressure/heat).
"His knees buckled" (fold or collapse).
Windows under pressure from an earthquake would bend out of shape or collapse.
Wait, "buckle" for windows: "bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat" fits the earthquake context (pressure from shaking).
Let's re-read the definition of sense 3: "bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat".
Definition of sense 2: "fold or collapse".
If windows buckle, they might bend out of shape and then shatter.
Let's consider "buckle" in the context of structural elements under pressure. "The highway buckled" is sense 3. Windows under pressure from an earthquake would also "bend out of shape, as under pressure".
Wait, sense 2 is "fold or collapse". Sense 3 is "bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat".
Earthquake causes pressure. "bend out of shape, as under pressure" fits perfectly.
Let's double check.
"buckle" (verb)
1. fasten with a buckle
2. fold or collapse (knees buckled)
3. bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat (highway buckled)

In the context: "wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass."
The windows are under pressure from the shaking building. They would bend out of shape (buckle) and then shatter.
Therefore, sense 3 is the best fit.
Let's review the options.
1. fasten with a buckle
2. fold or collapse
3. bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat

"bend out of shape, as under pressure" is exactly what happens to windows in an earthquake before they shatter.
I will choose sense 3.
Wait, could it be 2? "fold or collapse". Windows don't really "fold". They bend or warp under pressure. So 3 is better.
Let's confirm.
"buckle" -> bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat.
Yes, sense 3.

The target word is "shower" in the context: "Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass."
The context describes glass falling abundantly or raining down on them.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. expend profusely; also used with abstract nouns (lavish) - "showered with praise"
2. spray or sprinkle with - "showered rice on the couple"
3. take a shower; wash one's body in the shower
4. rain abundantly (shower down) - "Meteors showered down over half of Australia"

In the context, the windows would buckle and "shower us with glass". This means glass would rain down abundantly on them.
Sense 4: "rain abundantly" fits perfectly, as glass is raining down.
Wait, let's check sense 4: "rain abundantly". Examples: "Meteors showered down over half of Australia".
Is it sense 4? Yes, "shower us with glass" means to rain glass down on us.
Let's double check sense 2: "spray or sprinkle with". Glass isn't really sprayed or sprinkled, it rains down.
Sense 4 is the best fit.
Let's review the syntax: "shower us with glass".
Wait, sense 4 is "rain abundantly".
Let's see: "shower us with glass" -> rain abundantly.
Yes, sense 4.
Let's check if there is another sense.
"shower" as a verb meaning to rain down.
Sense 4: rain abundantly.
I will choose 4.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "Only a few <t>books</t> fell in the reading room."
The target word is "books".
The context describes a library (Berkeley Main library) and physical objects falling in a reading room.
Sense 1: a written work or composition that has been published (printed on pages bound together).
Sense 2: physical objects consisting of a number of pages bound together. Synonyms: volume. Example: he used a large book as a doorstop.
In the context, "Only a few books fell in the reading room" refers to the physical objects (volumes) falling from shelves.
Let's check the distinction between sense 1 and sense 2.
Sense 1 focuses on the content/work ("I am reading a good book on economics").
Sense 2 focuses on the physical object ("he used a large book as a doorstop").
Here, the books are falling, which is a physical action. So sense 2 is the best fit.
Let's double check. "Only a few books fell in the reading room."
Yes, physical objects.

Wait, let's review sense 1 vs 2.
Sense 1: a written work or composition that has been published (printed on pages bound together)
Sense 2: physical objects consisting of a number of pages bound together
Falling is a physical action, so "physical objects" is the most appropriate sense.

The phrase is "auto paint shop".
An auto paint shop is a small workplace where handcrafts or manufacturing (or in this case, auto painting) are done.
Let's check the candidate senses:
1. a mercantile establishment for the retail sale of goods or services (store)

3. a course of instruction in a trade (shop class)

An auto paint shop is a workplace where auto painting is done, which fits sense 2 (small workplace where handcrafts or manufacturing are done).
Wait, "auto paint shop" could be a workshop.
Let's see: "auto paint shop" -> workshop.
Sense 2: small workplace where handcrafts or manufacturing are done.
Yes, "workshop" is the synonym.
Therefore, sense 2 is the best fit.

This is more about the phenomenon of fire itself, whereas "the auto paint shop fire" refers to the specific event of a fire occurring at the auto paint shop.
Let's double check Sense 1 vs Sense 3. "the auto paint shop fire" refers to the event of the shop burning. "the event of something burning (often destructive)" fits perfectly.
Sense 1 is the best fit.
Let's review the options.
1. sense_key=fire%1:11:00:: | definition=the event of something burning (often destructive)
3. sense_key=fire%1:22:00:: | definition=the process of combustion of inflammable materials producing heat and light and (often) smoke

"the auto paint shop fire" -> an event of something burning.
Therefore, sense 1.
End of thought.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "black" in the context: "Then the auto paint shop fire sent an evil-looking cloud of black smoke into the air."
The word "black" modifies "smoke".
Smoke from a fire is literally black in color.
Let's check the candidate senses:
1. being of the achromatic color of maximum darkness; having little or no hue owing to absorption of almost all incident light. Examples: black leather jackets; as black as coal.
2. racial group.
3. marked by anger.
4. offering little or no hope.
5. stemming from evil characteristics or forces. (Wait, "evil-looking cloud of black smoke" - black modifies smoke, which is literally black in color, not evil itself, though the cloud is evil-looking).
8. extremely dark.
14. soiled with dirt or soot.

Is it sense 1? "being of the achromatic color of maximum darkness"
Yes, black smoke is literally black in color.
Let's double check if there's any other sense.
"black smoke" -> color.
Sense 1: being of the achromatic color of maximum darkness; having little or no hue owing to absorption of almost all incident light.
Examples: black leather jackets; as black as coal.
This fits perfectly.
Let's review the context: "an evil-looking cloud of black smoke". The smoke is black in color.
Sense 1 is the best fit.
I will return {"sense_index": 1}.
Wait, could it be 14? "soiled with dirt or soot" - no, the smoke itself is black, not soiled.
Could it be 5? "evil-looking cloud of black smoke" - "evil-looking" is separate from "black". "black" just describes the color of the smoke.
So sense 1 is the most appropriate.
I will output {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "Then the auto paint shop fire sent an evil-looking cloud of black smoke into the <t>air</t>."
The word "air" here refers to the region above the ground or the mass of air surrounding the Earth where the smoke is sent.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. air%1:27:00:: a mixture of gases (especially oxygen) required for breathing; the stuff that the wind consists of. (e.g., a smell of chemicals in the air)
2. air%1:15:00:: the region above the ground. (e.g., he threw the ball into the air)
5. air%1:15:01:: the mass of air surrounding the Earth. (e.g., it was exposed to the air)

Wait, "sent an evil-looking cloud of black smoke into the air".
Is it sense 1 or sense 2 or sense 5?
"into the air" -> "the region above the ground" (sense 2) or "the mass of air surrounding the Earth" (sense 5).
Let's check the examples for sense 2: "he threw the ball into the air".
Let's check the examples for sense 5: "it was exposed to the air".
Wait, sense 1: "a smell of chemicals in the air".
Actually, "into the air" is a very common phrase for "the region above the ground" (sense 2).
Let's re-read sense 2: "the region above the ground". Examples: "her hand stopped in mid air; he threw the ball into the air".
"sent an evil-looking cloud of black smoke into the air" -> the smoke goes up into the region above the ground.
Let's consider sense 1: "a mixture of gases...". "smoke into the air" could be the mixture of gases. But "into the air" usually maps to "the region above the ground" (sense 2) or "atmosphere" (sense 5).
Wait, "into the air" is explicitly in the example for sense 2: "he threw the ball into the air".
Let's check WordNet for "into the air".
"sent ... into the air"
Is it sense 2? Yes, "the region above the ground".
Let's check sense 5: "the mass of air surrounding the Earth".
"into the air" is more about the region above the ground.
Let's look at similar examples. "smoke into the air".
If I search WordNet, "air" sense 2 has "into the air".
Let's choose sense 2.
Wait, let's look at sense 1: "a mixture of gases...". "a smell of chemicals in the air".
But "into the air" is a spatial direction, which matches "the region above the ground" (sense 2).
Let's confirm sense 2.
"he threw the ball into the air" -> "sent an evil-looking cloud of black smoke into the air".
Yes, sense 2 is the best fit.
Another option: sense 5 "the mass of air surrounding the Earth". But "into the air" is specifically listed under sense 2 in WordNet ("he threw the ball into the air").
I will go with 2.
Let's double check.
"sent an evil-looking cloud of black smoke into the air"
"air" = the region above the ground.
Yes, 2.

The context is: "This building shook like hell and it kept getting stronger."
The target word is "shook" (past tense of shake).
The building is moving back and forth, likely due to an earthquake (implied by "building shook like hell", "gas tank... exploding", "fell in the reading room").
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. move or cause to move back and forth (agitate) - The chemist shook the flask vigorously; My hands were shaking.
2. move with or as if with a tremor (didder) - his hands shook.
3. shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively (judder) - The old engine was juddering.
4. move back and forth or sideways (rock, sway) - the ship was rocking; the tall building swayed.
Wait, "shake" in the context of a building during an earthquake.
Is it sense 1, 3, or 4?
Sense 1: move or cause to move back and forth.
Sense 3: shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively.
Sense 4: move back and forth or sideways (rock, sway).
Let's check the examples for sense 4: "the tall building swayed".
Wait, sense 1: "move or cause to move back and forth".
Let's consider "shake" as in an earthquake. "The building shook".
Is it sense 1? "move or cause to move back and forth".
Let's look at sense 1: "move or cause to move back and forth".
Let's look at sense 3: "shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively".
Let's look at sense 4: "move back and forth or sideways".
Actually, "shake" for a building in an earthquake is often sense 1 or 4.
Wait, let's search WordNet for "shake" building.
"shake" (verb)
1. shake, agitate - move or cause to move back and forth; "The chemist shook the flask vigorously"; "My hands were shaking"
2. shake, quiver, didder - move with or as if with a tremor; "his hands shook"
3. shake, judder - shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively; "The old engine was juddering"
4. rock, sway, shake - move back and forth or sideways; "the ship was rocking"; "the tall building swayed"
Wait, "shake" in sense 4 has "rock, sway" as synonyms.
But "shook like hell" implies intense shaking.
Let's look at sense 1: "move or cause to move back and forth".
Is there a better fit?
What about sense 1? "The building shook like hell".
Let's check the exact WordNet entry for "shake" in the context of an earthquake.
"shake" (v)
1. shake, agitate: move or cause to move back and forth.
Wait, "shake" as in "the earth shook" is often sense 1.
Let's consider "shake" (v) 1: "move or cause to move back and forth".
Let's consider "shake" (v) 4: "move back and forth or sideways".
In WordNet, "shake" (v) 1 is "move or cause to move back and forth".
Is there an earthquake sense?
"shake" (v) 1: "The earth shook." (Wait, is that an example?)
Let's check the examples for sense 1: "The chemist shook the flask vigorously; My hands were shaking".
What about sense 3: "shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively".
What about sense 4: "move back and forth or sideways".
Let's think if "shake" in "This building shook like hell" is sense 1.
"shake" (v) 1: move or cause to move back and forth.
Let's search for "building shook" in WordNet. No, but "shake" is used for buildings.
Wait, "shake" (v) 1 is the most general "move back and forth".
Let's look at the synonyms for sense 1: agitate.
Synonyms for sense 4: rock, sway.
If a building "shook like hell", it's moving back and forth violently.
Is it sense 1? Yes, "shake" meaning to move back and forth.
Let's consider sense 1.
Wait, let's look at the definition of sense 1: "move or cause to move back and forth".
Could it be sense 1? Yes.
Let's check sense 3: "shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively". Synonyms: judder. Example: The old engine was juddering. This is more about vibration.
Sense 4: "move back and forth or sideways". Synonyms: rock, sway. Example: the ship was rocking; the tall building swayed.
But the word is "shook", not "swayed". "Shook like hell" implies violent movement, which fits "shake" (sense 1) better than "sway" (sense 4).
Let's choose sense 1.
Wait, let's re-read the context: "This building shook like hell and it kept getting stronger."
This is an earthquake. "The earth shook" is a classic example of sense 1.
Let's confirm sense 1.
"shake" (v) 1: move or cause to move back and forth.
I will go with sense 1.
Let's double check if there's any other sense.
Sense 1: move or cause to move back and forth.
Yes, sense 1 is the best fit.
Another option: sense 3 (judder). But judder is for engines.
Sense 1 is the most appropriate for a building shaking in an earthquake.
I'll output 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "exploding" in the context: "Except for the gas tank at Hustead's Towing Service exploding and burning in downtown Berkeley, things here are quite peaceful."
The gas tank is exploding and burning. This is a physical reaction, bursting and releasing energy.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. cause to burst with a violent release of energy (transitive) - "We exploded the nuclear bomb"
2. burst outward, usually with noise - "The champagne bottle exploded"
9. burst and release energy as through a violent chemical or physical reaction - "the bomb detonated at noon; The Molotov cocktail exploded"

Wait, "exploding" here is intransitive: "the gas tank ... exploding".
Sense 9: "burst and release energy as through a violent chemical or physical reaction" (intransitive). Synonyms: detonate, blow up. Examples: the bomb detonated at noon; The Molotov cocktail exploded.
Sense 2: "burst outward, usually with noise". Synonyms: burst. Examples: The champagne bottle exploded.
A gas tank exploding and burning is a violent chemical or physical reaction. Sense 9 fits perfectly.
Let's double check Sense 9 vs Sense 2.
Sense 9: burst and release energy as through a violent chemical or physical reaction.
Context: "gas tank ... exploding and burning". Burning implies a chemical reaction.
Therefore, Sense 9 is the best fit.
Let's review the options.
1. cause to burst (transitive)
2. burst outward, usually with noise (intransitive, but more like a container bursting, e.g., champagne bottle)
9. burst and release energy as through a violent chemical or physical reaction (intransitive, e.g., bomb, Molotov cocktail, gas tank).

Yes, sense 9 is the most appropriate.
Let's check the JSON format: {"sense_index": 9}.
Wait, is "gas tank" the subject of exploding? Yes, "the gas tank ... exploding".
Sense 9: "burst and release energy as through a violent chemical or physical reaction".
Matches "exploding and burning".
I will output {"sense_index": 9}.

The target word is "burning" in the context: "Except for the gas tank at Hustead's Towing Service exploding and burning in downtown Berkeley, things here are quite peaceful."
The gas tank is exploding and burning. This means it is undergoing combustion.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. destroy by fire (fire, burn down) - They burned the house.
2. shine intensely, as if with heat (glow)
3. undergo combustion (combust) - Maple wood burns well.
4. cause a sharp or stinging pain or discomfort
5. cause to burn or combust
6. feel strong emotion
7. cause to undergo combustion
8. burn at the stake
9. spend money
10. feel hot or painful
11. burn, sear, or freeze (tissue)
12. get a sunburn
13. create by duplicating data
14. use up (energy)
15. burn with heat, fire, or radiation

The gas tank is "burning", which means it is undergoing combustion.
Sense 3: undergo combustion. Synonyms: combust. Examples: Maple wood burns well.
Wait, "burning" is intransitive here: "the gas tank ... exploding and burning".
Sense 3 is "undergo combustion".
Let's check sense 3.
"undergo combustion" -> combust.
Is there any other intransitive sense?
Sense 1: destroy by fire (transitive)
Sense 3: undergo combustion (intransitive)
Sense 5: cause to burn or combust (transitive)
Sense 7: cause to undergo combustion (transitive)
Sense 15: burn with heat, fire, or radiation (transitive/intransitive? "The iron burnt a hole in my dress" - transitive)

Therefore, sense 3 is the best fit.
Let's double check.
"the gas tank at Hustead's Towing Service exploding and burning"
The gas tank is undergoing combustion.
Sense 3: sense_key=burn%2:30:00:: | definition=undergo combustion | synonyms=combust | examples=Maple wood burns well

Yes, sense 3 is the correct one.
Context: "exploding and burning" -> intransitive, undergoing combustion.
Sense 3 is intransitive.
I will output {"sense_index": 3}.

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "Except for the gas tank at Hustead's Towing Service exploding and burning in downtown Berkeley, things here are quite peaceful."
The word is "things".
The context talks about the situation or state of affairs in Berkeley.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. a special situation (this thing has got to end; it is a remarkable thing)
2. an action
3. a special abstraction
4. an artifact
5. an event
6. a vaguely specified concern (matter, affair)
7. a statement regarded as an object
8. an entity that is not named specifically
9. any attribute or quality considered as having its own existence
10. a special objective
11. a persistent illogical feeling of desire or aversion
12. a separate and self-contained entity

Wait, "things here are quite peaceful" refers to the situation or state of affairs.
Sense 1: "a special situation" - "this thing has got to end; it is a remarkable thing".
Wait, sense 1 is "a special situation".
Let's check sense 1: thing%1:26:00:: | definition=a special situation | examples=this thing has got to end; it is a remarkable thing.
Is there a better sense?
What about "a vaguely specified concern" (matter, affair)? "several matters to attend to; it is none of your affair".
"things here are quite peaceful" -> the situation here is quite peaceful.
Let's consider "thing" as "a special situation".
Wait, could it be "a vaguely specified concern"? No, "things" in "things are quite peaceful" means the situation, the state of affairs.
Let's check WordNet for "thing" meaning "situation".
WordNet: thing (n)
1. thing - a separate and self-contained entity
2. thing - a special situation; "this thing has got to end"; "it is a remarkable thing"
3. thing - an action; "how could you do such a thing?"
4. thing - a special abstraction; "a thing of the spirit"; "things of the heart"
5. thing - an artifact; "how does this thing work?"
6. thing - an event; "a funny thing happened on the way to the..."
7. thing - a vaguely specified concern; "several matters to attend to"; "it is none of your affair"
8. thing - a statement regarded as an object; "to say the same thing in other terms"; "how can you say such a thing?"
9. thing - an entity that is not named specifically; "I couldn't tell what the thing was"
10. thing - any attribute or quality considered as having its own existence; "the thing I like about her is ..."
11. thing - a special objective; "the thing is to stay in bounds"
12. thing - a persistent illogical feeling of desire or aversion; "he has a thing about seafood"; "she has a thing about him"

"things here are quite peaceful" -> the situation here is quite peaceful.
Sense 1 in the candidate list is "a special situation".
Let's see: "things here are quite peaceful" -> "the situation here is quite peaceful".
Yes, "a special situation" fits perfectly.
Let's double check if there's any other.
"thing" as "situation" is sense 2 in WordNet, but in the candidate list it is index 1.
Candidate 1: sense_key=thing%1:26:00:: | definition=a special situation | examples=this thing has got to end; it is a remarkable thing
Yes, "things" = "the situation".
"Except for the gas tank... things here are quite peaceful." -> the situation here is quite peaceful.
I will choose 1.
Wait, let's review candidate 1: "a special situation".
Is there any other? "a vaguely specified concern" (matter, affair). "Things are peaceful" -> "Matters are peaceful"? "Affairs are peaceful"? "Situation is peaceful" is much more natural.
Therefore, sense 1 is the best.
Let's confirm the index.
1. sense_key=thing%1:26:00:: | definition=a special situation
I will output {"sense_index": 1}.
Context: "Except for the gas tank at Hustead's Towing Service exploding and burning in downtown Berkeley, things here are quite peaceful."
"things" = the situation.
Matches "a special situation".
Done.

The target word is "peaceful".
Context: "Except for the gas tank at Hustead's Towing Service exploding and burning in downtown Berkeley, things here are quite peaceful. A lot of car alarms went off."
The context describes a situation after an earthquake or similar event (building shook, gas tank exploding), but otherwise, things are calm, not disturbed by strife or turmoil.
Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=peaceful%3:00:00:: | definition=not disturbed by strife or turmoil or war | synonyms=peaceable | examples=a peaceful nation; peaceful times
2. sense_key=peaceful%5:00:00:nonviolent:00 | definition=peacefully resistant in response to injustice | synonyms=passive | examples=passive resistance

Sense 1 fits perfectly: "not disturbed by strife or turmoil or war" -> "things here are quite peaceful" (calm, undisturbed).
Sense 2 is about nonviolent resistance, which does not fit the context.

Therefore, the best sense is 1.
I will return {"sense_index": 1}.
