Let's look at the senses:

3. cut the surface of; wear away the surface of
4. bend the knees and bow in a servile manner
5. gather (money or other resources) together over time
6. bruise, cut, or injure the skin or the surface of

In the context of ringing a bell at a tower, "scrape" likely means to gather money or resources together over time, as bell ringing often requires fundraising or scraping together funds to maintain the tower or pay for services. Wait, "scrape" in the context of ringing bells? Or maybe "scrape" means to gather money? "we have to scrape" -> scrape together money.
Let's consider "scrape" meaning to gather money or resources. "scrape together" is common, but "scrape" alone can mean to gather with difficulty.
Let's check the context: "To ring for even one service at this tower, we have to scrape," says Mr. Hammond. This implies they have to gather money or resources with difficulty.
Sense 5: gather (money or other resources) together over time.

Let's double check if there's any other meaning.
Could it be "scratch repeatedly"? No.
"make by scraping"? No.
"cut the surface of"? No.
"bend the knees"? No.
"bruise, cut, or injure"? No.

Therefore, sense 5 is the most appropriate. "scrape" meaning to gather money or resources together over time.
Wait, "scrape" can also mean to manage with difficulty, but sense 5 specifically says "gather (money or other resources) together over time".
Let's confirm if "scrape" in this context means gathering money. Yes, "scrape" is often used to mean scraping together funds.

Let's review the sentence again: "To ring for even one service at this tower, we have to scrape," says Mr. Hammond, a retired water-authority worker.
This implies they have to scrape (together money/resources) to afford it or maintain it.
Sense 5 fits perfectly.
Number: 5.
I will return 5.

This is from a corpus.
Let's see: "drift away" -> wander from a direct course or at random?
Wait, if they "drift away", they are wandering off.
Let's check sense 2: "wander from a direct course or at random"
Let's check sense 5: "live unhurriedly, irresponsibly, or freely"
Let's check sense 3: "move about aimlessly or without any destination, often in search of food or employment"
Let's check sense 6: "move in an unhurried fashion"

If I search for "We've tried to train the youngsters, but they have their discos and their dances, and they just drift away."
This is likely from the Brown corpus or similar.
In WordNet, "drift" has these senses.
Sense 2: wander from a direct course or at random. "The child strayed from the path and her parents lost sight of her"
Sense 5: live unhurriedly, irresponsibly, or freely. "My son drifted around for years in California before going to law school"
Wait, "drift away" is a phrasal verb, but the word is just "drift".
If the sentence is "they just drift away", the sense of "drift" is to wander off, to stray.
Let's consider sense 2.
Is there any other sense?
"drift away" -> to wander from a direct course or at random.
Let's look at the example for sense 2: "The child strayed from the path and her parents lost sight of her"
This matches "drift away" in the sense of straying or wandering off.
Let's look at sense 5: "live unhurriedly, irresponsibly, or freely". Example: "My son drifted around for years..."
The sentence says "they just drift away." This implies they wander off from the training or the intended path.
So sense 2 is the best fit.

Let's double check.
"drift"
1. be in motion due to some air or water current
2. wander from a direct course or at random
3. move about aimlessly or without any destination, often in search of food or employment
4. vary or move from a fixed point or course
5. live unhurriedly, irresponsibly, or freely
6. move in an unhurried fashion
7. cause to be carried by a current
8. drive slowly and far afield for grazing
9. be subject to fluctuation
10. be piled up in banks or heaps by the force of wind or a current

"they just drift away" -> they wander from the direct course (the training) or at random.
I will guess 2.
Wait, let's think if "drift away" could be sense 2. Yes, "stray" is a synonym for sense 2. "drift away" is synonymous with "stray".
I'll output 2.
Let's review the sentence: "We've tried to train the youngsters, but they have their discos and their dances, and they just drift away."
They are supposed to be trained, but they wander off (drift away).
Sense 2: wander from a direct course or at random.
Matches perfectly.
I will return 2.

12. (sports) the spin given to a ball

In the sentence "History, after all, is not on his side", "side" refers to the position or opinion in an argument or dispute, or the group/position one supports.
Wait, let's look at sense 10: "an opinion that is held in opposition to another in an argument or dispute" - examples: "there are two sides to every question".
Or sense 2: "one of two or more contesting groups" - examples: "the Confederate side was prepared to attack".
Is "on his side" meaning "supporting his opinion/position"?
Let's check WordNet for "side".
WordNet senses for "side":
1. a place within a region identified relative to a center or reference location
2. one of two or more contesting groups
3. either the left or right half of a body
4. a surface forming part of the outside of an object
5. an extended outer surface of an object
6. an aspect of something (as contrasted with some other implied aspect)
7. a line segment forming part of the perimeter of a plane figure
8. a family line of descent
9. a lengthwise dressed half of an animal's carcass used for food
10. an opinion that is held in opposition to another in an argument or dispute
11. an elevated geological formation
12. (sports) the spin given to a ball by striking it on one side or releasing it with a sharp twist

Wait, "on his side" means supporting him, or being on the same side as him in a dispute/argument.
Let's see: "History, after all, is not on his side."
This means History does not support his position/opinion in the argument/dispute.
Sense 10: "an opinion that is held in opposition to another in an argument or dispute"
Let's check if there is a better fit.
Could it be sense 10? Yes, "side" as in "whose side are you on?"
Let's review the exact WordNet definition for sense 10: "an opinion that is held in opposition to another in an argument or dispute"
Example: "there are two sides to every question"
Is "on his side" sense 10?
Let's check WordNet for "side" noun.
Sense 10: an opinion that is held in opposition to another in an argument or dispute.
Synonyms: side, position.
"History is not on his side" -> History does not hold the same opinion/position as him.
Wait, let's search for "on his side" in WordNet.
Actually, the phrase "on someone's side" usually maps to the sense of "position" or "opinion" in an argument.
Let's consider Sense 10.
Is there any other sense?
Sense 2: "one of two or more contesting groups". "History" is not a contesting group, but rather an abstract concept supporting a position.
Sense 10 fits "position" or "opinion".
Let's double check WordNet 3.1:
side (n)
1. side, position - a place within a region identified relative to a center or reference location
2. side - one of two or more contesting groups
3. side - either the left or right half of a body
4. side - a surface forming part of the outside of an object

11. side, slope - an elevated geological formation
12. side, english - (sports) the spin given to a ball by striking it on one side or releasing it with a sharp twist

"History, after all, is not on his side." -> "side" here means "position" or "opinion".
Therefore, sense 10 is the correct one.
Let's confirm.
"on his side" = supporting his position/opinion.
Yes, sense 10.
I will return 10.

In WordNet, "take" has a sense: "carry out" (e.g., take action, take steps).

Sense 15: experience or feel or submit to (e.g., take a test, take a fall)
Sense 24: ascertain or determine by measuring, computing or take a reading from a dial (e.g., take a pulse, take a temperature)

Let's review the sentence: "According to a nationwide survey taken a year ago..."
"taken" here is the past participle of "take". "A survey taken" = "A survey carried out".
Therefore, sense 1 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check other senses.
10. pick out, select, or choose from a number of alternatives
13. take into consideration for exemplifying purposes
15. experience or feel or submit to
24. ascertain or determine by measuring, computing or take a reading from a dial
Could it be 24? "take a survey" is not measuring a pulse.
Could it be 1? "carry out" -> take action, take steps, take a survey. Yes, "take a survey" is a common collocation for "carry out a survey".

Let's look at WordNet 3.1 for "take":
1. take, take in, receive, have - get into one's hands, take physically
2. take, convey, bring, get - take somebody somewhere
3. take, get hold of - get into one's hands, take physically

Let's confirm if "take a survey" is an example of "carry out".
"take action", "take steps", "take a survey", "take measures". All these mean "carry out".
I will go with 1.
Wait, let's think if "take a survey" could be 24. "take a reading", "take a poll", "take a survey".

Sense 1: carry out.
I will return 1.

Sentence: "According to a nationwide survey taken a year ago, nearly a third of England's church <t>bells</t> are no longer rung on Sundays because there is no one to ring them."
The word "bells" here refers to the physical objects in a church that are rung.

Sentence: "According to a nationwide survey taken a year ago, nearly a third of England's church bells are <t>no</t> longer rung on Sundays because there is no one to ring them."

The word "no" is used in the phrase "no longer".
"no longer" means "not anymore" or "not in any degree or manner; not at all" (in the context of time, it means the action does not happen at all anymore).
Let's look at the senses:
1. referring to the degree to which a certain quality is present (e.g., he was no heavier than a child)
2. not in any degree or manner; not at all (e.g., he is no better today)
3. used to express refusal or denial or disagreement etc or especially to emphasize a negative statement (e.g., no, you are wrong)

In "no longer", "no" modifies "longer" to mean "not at all" or "not in any degree".
Wait, "no longer" is an adverbial phrase. "no" here means "not at all" or "not in any degree".
Let's check the examples for sense 2: "he is no better today". "no" modifies "better".
In "no longer", "no" modifies "longer".
So sense 2 fits best.

Let's double check.
"no longer" = not anymore.
"no" in "no longer" is an adverb meaning "not at all" or "not in any degree".
Sense 2: "not in any degree or manner; not at all".
Sense 1: "referring to the degree to which a certain quality is present" (e.g., no heavier than).
Sense 3: interjection "no".

Therefore, sense 2 is the correct one.
Let's confirm.
"no longer" -> "no" is an adverb meaning "not at all".
Yes, sense 2.
I will return 2.
