Wait, let's look at sense 2: "he wanted to have a good job before starting a family".
Sense 4: "people descended from a common ancestor" -> "his family has lived in Massachusetts since the Mayflower".

Let's review the examples. "he wanted to have a good job before starting a family" -> starting a family means having a spouse and children. "the man had no family" -> he had no spouse or children.
Therefore, sense 2 is the correct answer.

I will output 2.

WordNet sense 1: express in words; "He said that he wanted to marry her"; "tell me what is bothering you"; "state your opinion"; "state your name"

Actually, "say to oneself" is a classic example of "express in words" (sense 1).

In the sentence "nobody kills a man just as a favor!!", "man" refers to a human being in general, or an adult male person. Wait, "a man" here means a human being, or an adult male. Let's see. "nobody kills a man" - it could be sense 1 (an adult person who is male) or sense 3 (the generic use of the word to refer to any human being).
Wait, "a man" in "nobody kills a man" usually means a human being. Let's check the context. "nobody kills a man just as a favor" - it means a human being.
Let's consider sense 1: "an adult person who is male (as opposed to a woman)".
Let's consider sense 3: "the generic use of the word to refer to any human being".
Is it sense 1 or 3? "nobody kills a man" - "a man" is often used generically to mean a human being.
Wait, let's search for the exact sentence: "Really, he said to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!"
This is from a book, maybe "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd" or similar? No, "nobody kills a man just as a favor" - maybe a detective novel.
If it's "a man", it could be sense 1 or 3.
Let's look at similar examples in WordNet.
"nobody kills a man just as a favor" -> "man" as a human being.
Wait, "a man" in this context: "nobody kills a man just as a favor". It means a human being.
Let's check sense 1: "an adult person who is male".
Let's check sense 3: "the generic use of the word to refer to any human being".
In WordNet, "man" sense 3: "the generic use of the word to refer to any human being" -> "it was every man for himself", "man is a tool-using animal".
Is "a man" in "nobody kills a man" sense 1 or 3?
If I say "he is a good man", it's sense 1 or 6.
If I say "nobody kills a man", it means a human being. "Man" as in "a human being".
Let's search my internal knowledge for "nobody kills a man just as a favor".
Could it be sense 1? "an adult person who is male".
Let's think if "man" here is specifically male or generic. "nobody kills a man" - it could be generic.
But wait, "a man" is often sense 1 in WordNet if it's "a man" (countable). Sense 3 is usually uncountable "man" (e.g., "Man is mortal"), but the example says "it was every man for himself", which is countable.
Let's look at the example for sense 3: "it was every man for himself". This is countable! "every man".
So "a man" could be sense 3.
Let's consider another option. "nobody kills a man just as a favor" - maybe it's sense 1.
Let's search for "nobody kills a man just as a favor".
Ah, "nobody kills a man just as a favor" is from a specific text.
Let's evaluate "a man" in "nobody kills a man". It means a human being.
Let's check WordNet for "nobody kills a man".
Actually, "man" meaning "a human being" is sense 3.
Let's check if there is a more specific sense.
What if it's sense 1? "an adult person who is male".
If the victim is specifically male, it's sense 1. But "a man" here is used to mean "a person". "Nobody kills a person just as a favor".
Therefore, sense 3 is highly likely.
Let's double check.
"nobody kills a man just as a favor" -> "man" = human being.
Sense 3: "the generic use of the word to refer to any human being"
Examples: "it was every man for himself"
Yes, "a man" = "a human being".

Let's rethink: does "a man" in "nobody kills a man" mean a male adult or a human being?
"Nobody kills a human being just as a favor." This makes perfect sense.
"Nobody kills an adult male just as a favor." This is more specific, but "man" is often used generically.
I will go with 3.
Wait, let's consider if it's 1. In many NLP datasets (like Word Sense Disambiguation), "a man" in such contexts is often labeled as the generic human being sense if it's interchangeable with "person".
Let's choose 3.
Wait, let's look at the example for sense 1: "there were two women and six men on the bus".
Example for sense 3: "it was every man for himself".
"nobody kills a man" -> "a man" is generic for a person.
I'll output 3.
Let me reconsider. "nobody kills a man just as a favor" - could it be 1?
If the text is "nobody kills a man just as a favor", it might be from a book where the victim is a man, but the speaker is making a general statement about killing a human being. "Nobody kills a person just as a favor."
I am confident it is 3.
Let's review the options.
1. an adult person who is male
3. the generic use of the word to refer to any human being
I will bet on 3.
Wait, let's search for "nobody kills a man just as a favor".
It might be from "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd" or similar.
Actually, it doesn't matter, the generic sense fits best.
Let's consider if "man" here is sense 1. If the sentence was "he killed a man", it could be 1. But "nobody kills a man just as a favor" is a generalization about human nature. "Man" = human being.
I will output 3.

Sentence: "It was like a recurrent, annoying dream, but now the dream was beginning to take on overtones of a <t>nightmare</t>."
Senses:
1. definition=a situation resembling a terrifying dream
2. definition=a terrifying or deeply upsetting dream

In the sentence, the word "nightmare" is compared to a "dream" ("like a recurrent, annoying dream, but now the dream was beginning to take on overtones of a nightmare"). This implies it is literally a dream, or at least being discussed in the context of a dream.
Wait, "the dream was beginning to take on overtones of a nightmare". This means the dream itself is becoming a nightmare.
Sense 2: a terrifying or deeply upsetting dream.
Sense 1: a situation resembling a terrifying dream.

Since the sentence explicitly mentions "the dream", it refers to the literal dream sense.
Therefore, sense 2 is the correct one.
Let's double check. "It was like a recurrent, annoying dream, but now the dream was beginning to take on overtones of a nightmare."
Yes, "the dream" is the subject, so "nightmare" here refers to a terrifying dream.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "However, Haney <t>knew</t> it was not a dream."
The word "knew" is used to express being aware of the truth of something, having a belief or faith in something, regarding it as true beyond any doubt.
Let's check the senses:
1. be cognizant or aware of a fact or a specific piece of information; possess knowledge or information about. (I know that the President lied to the people)
3. be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt. (I know that I left the key on the table)

Wait, "knew it was not a dream" is very similar to "I know that I left the key on the table" (Sense 3).
Let's re-read Sense 1: "be cognizant or aware of a fact or a specific piece of information; possess knowledge or information about"
Sense 3: "be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt"

"However, Haney knew it was not a dream."
Is it 1 or 3?
In WordNet, "know" has these senses:
1. know, cognize, cognise - be cognizant or aware of a fact or a specific piece of information; possess knowledge or information about ("I know that the President lied to the people")
2. know - know how to do or perform something ("She knows how to knit")
3. know - be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt ("I know that I left the key on the table")
4. know, be acquainted with, be familiar with - be familiar or acquainted with a person or an object ("She doesn't know this composer")

10. know - be able to distinguish, recognize as being different ("The child knows right from wrong")
11. know - perceive as familiar ("I know this voice!")

"However, Haney knew it was not a dream."
This is a belief or awareness of the truth of something. "I know that I left the key on the table" is the exact example for sense 3.
"know it was not a dream" -> be aware of the truth of something; regard as true beyond any doubt.
Let's consider Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
Sense 1: "I know that the President lied to the people"
Sense 3: "I know that I left the key on the table"
"it was not a dream" is a fact about one's own state or reality, similar to "I left the key on the table".
Wait, WordNet sense 3 is "be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt".
Let's search for "knew it was not a dream" in WordNet or similar datasets.
Actually, the sentence "However, Haney knew it was not a dream." might be from a specific corpus (like SemCor or similar).
In SemCor, "know" is often tagged.
Let's look at the example for sense 3: "I know that I left the key on the table".
"know it was not a dream" -> "be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt".
Is it 1 or 3?
"know" + that-clause can be 1 or 3.
Sense 1: possess knowledge or information about.
Sense 3: regard as true beyond any doubt.
"knew it was not a dream" implies a strong conviction or awareness of the truth of a situation, fitting sense 3 perfectly.
Let's check if there's any other sense.
Sense 1: "I know that the President lied to the people"
Sense 3: "I know that I left the key on the table"
"it was not a dream" is a personal realization, similar to "I left the key on the table".
I will go with 3.
Wait, let's think if 1 is better. "be cognizant or aware of a fact or a specific piece of information".
"it was not a dream" is a fact.
But "regard as true beyond any doubt" fits "knew it was not a dream" very well.
Let's choose 3.
Let's double check.
Sentence: However, Haney knew it was not a dream.
If I look up "knew it was not a dream", it's a statement of certainty about a state of affairs.
Sense 3: "be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt"
Yes, 3 is the best fit.
Another option: 1.
Let's consider the phrase "knew it was not a dream". This is a classic example of "knowing" a truth, often contrasted with dreaming. It's about being aware of the truth of something.
I'll output 3.
Wait, let's review the exact definitions.
1. be cognizant or aware of a fact or a specific piece of information; possess knowledge or information about
3. be aware of the truth of something; have a belief or faith in something; regard as true beyond any doubt
"it was not a dream" is a truth/belief.

Sentence: "However, Haney knew it was not a <t>dream</t>."

Let's look at the senses:
1. a series of mental images and emotions occurring during sleep
2. imaginative thoughts indulged in while awake
3. a cherished desire
4. a fantastic but vain hope
5. a state of mind characterized by abstraction and release from reality
6. someone or something wonderful

In the sentence "However, Haney knew it was not a dream.", the context implies that something seemed like a dream (perhaps a sleep dream or an illusion), but Haney knew it was real. The most common contrast to reality in this phrasing ("it was not a dream") is a dream during sleep (sense 1) or an illusion. Let's see if sense 1 fits best. "I had a dream about you last night." "Haney knew it was not a dream." This usually means it wasn't a sleep dream, it was real.

Let's check the options again.
1. definition=a series of mental images and emotions occurring during sleep
2. definition=imaginative thoughts indulged in while awake
3. definition=a cherished desire
4. definition=a fantastic but vain hope
5. definition=a state of mind characterized by abstraction and release from reality
6. definition=someone or something wonderful

"it was not a dream" -> it was real. The contrast is between reality and a sleep dream.
Therefore, sense 1 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check if there's any other context. "Haney knew it was not a dream." This is a classic trope where a character experiences something unbelievable and checks if they are dreaming. Thus, sense 1.
Wait, let's consider sense 1 vs sense 2. "imaginative thoughts indulged in while awake" - daydream. But "it was not a dream" usually refers to a sleep dream.
I will output 1.

1. any period of seven consecutive days
2. hours or days of work in a calendar week

- night (the time between sunset and midnight) -> "he watched television every night"
- Night (Roman goddess of night)

"Saturday night" -> "the time between sunset and midnight".
I will output 7.
Wait, let's think if 1 is better. "Saturday night" is the time between sunset and midnight. Yes, 7 is specifically "the time between sunset and midnight".
I'll go with 7.
Let's re-read the sentence: "It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he had an excuse to drink heavier than usual."
This clearly refers to the evening/nighttime of Saturday, which is the time between sunset and midnight.
Therefore, 7.

"had an excuse" -> possess an excuse. This is an abstract sense of possession.
Sense 1: "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense"
Let's check if there's any other.
"have an excuse" -> possess an excuse.
Sense 1 fits perfectly.
Let's double check.
"have an excuse" -> possess.
Sense 1: have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense.
Yes.
Let's review the options.
1. have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense
4. have ownership or possession of (usually concrete, like houses)
1 is the best fit for abstract possession like "an excuse".
I will output 1.

The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "excuse" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he had an <t>excuse</t> to drink heavier than usual."

Senses:
1. definition=a defense of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise etc. | examples=he kept finding excuses to stay
2. definition=a note explaining an absence | examples=he had to get his mother to write an excuse for him
3. definition=a poor example | examples=it was an apology for a meal

In the sentence, "excuse" means a reason or justification for doing something (drinking heavier than usual), which aligns with sense 1: "a defense of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise etc." or a reason to do something. "he kept finding excuses to stay" is very similar to "he had an excuse to drink heavier than usual".

Let's check sense 1.
Sense 1: a defense of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise etc.
Example: he kept finding excuses to stay.
This matches the usage in the sentence perfectly.

Sense 2 is a written note.
Sense 3 is a poor example (like "an excuse for a car").

Therefore, the correct sense is 1.
I will return only the number 1.

The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "drink" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he had an excuse to <t>drink</t> heavier than usual."

Senses:
1. take in liquids
2. consume alcohol
3. propose a toast to
4. be fascinated or spell-bound by; pay close attention to
5. drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic

In the sentence, "drink heavier than usual" in the context of a "bar" and "Saturday night" implies consuming alcohol.
Sense 2: consume alcohol.
Sense 5: drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic. "drink heavier than usual" means consuming more alcohol than usual, but not necessarily being an alcoholic or drinking excessively in the sense of the definition of sense 5 (which is more about the habit of being an alcoholic). Wait, "drink heavier than usual" -> consume alcohol.
Let's check the examples.
Sense 2: "We were up drinking all night"
Sense 5: "The husband drinks and beats his wife"

"drink heavier than usual" -> consume alcohol.
Let's see: "drink" in "drink heavier than usual" means to consume alcohol.
Is it 2 or 5?
"drink heavier than usual" -> consume alcohol.
Sense 2 fits best.

Let's double check.
"drink heavier than usual" -> consume alcohol.
Sense 2: consume alcohol.
Sense 5: drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic.
The sentence says "he had an excuse to drink heavier than usual." This means he consumed alcohol.
I will choose 2.
Wait, "drink heavier" -> consume alcohol.
Yes, 2.

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

Sentence: It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he had an excuse to drink heavier than <t>usual</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=occurring or encountered or experienced or observed frequently or in accordance with regular practice or procedure | examples=grew the usual vegetables
2. definition=commonly encountered | examples=a common (or familiar) complaint

reasoning_content:
The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "usual" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he had an excuse to drink heavier than <t>usual</t>."

Senses:
1. occurring or encountered or experienced or observed frequently or in accordance with regular practice or procedure
2. commonly encountered

In the sentence, "drink heavier than usual" means heavier than what is his regular practice or procedure.
Sense 1 fits perfectly: "in accordance with regular practice or procedure".
Sense 2 is "commonly encountered", which doesn't fit as well as sense 1 for "than usual" (meaning than is customary for him).

Let's check the examples:
Sense 1: grew the usual vegetables (regular practice)
Sense 2: a common (or familiar) complaint (commonly encountered)

"drink heavier than usual" -> heavier than his regular practice.
So sense 1 is the correct answer.
Number: 1.
End of thought.
