Target lemma: burden
Target surface form: burden
Context:
Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to see that nobody else seemed to notice his departure. Phil decided to stay a little longer, and as time passed it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there, but for the other glass on the table. Some time before midnight he returned to his apartment and hit the sack, putting the whole incident out of mind before he fell asleep. The next day, Sunday, the hangover reminded Haney where he had been the night before. The hangover in turn reminded him of his conversation with the weirdy, and he groaned. He went for more aspirin later in the day, and passed the surly landlord on the way -- he was still alive and scowling as usual, as if tenants were a <t>burden</t> in his life. Phil shrugged and ignored him.

reasoning_content:
*   Target word: "life"
    *   Context: "...he was still alive and scowling as usual, as if tenants were a burden in his <t>life</t>."
    *   Meaning: The landlord views tenants as a burden in his overall existence, his daily experience, and the events/activities that make up his living.

    *   Sense 1: characteristic state or mode of living (e.g., social life, city life). (Not quite, "his life" here isn't a specific *mode* like "city life").
    *   Sense 2: the experience of being alive; the course of human events and activities (e.g., complexities of life). (Possible, but more general/abstract).
    *   Sense 3: the course of existence of an individual; the actions and events that occur in living (e.g., live his own life). (Very strong fit: the landlord's personal existence/experience).
    *   Sense 4: the condition of living or the state of being alive (e.g., while there's life there's hope). (Too biological/abstract).
    *   Sense 5: the period during which something is functional (lifetime/lifespan). (Not about duration).
    *   Sense 6: the period between birth and the present time. (Not specifically about the duration up to now).
    *   Sense 7: the period from the present until death. (Not about the remaining time).
    *   Sense 8: a living person. (Not referring to a person).
    *   Sense 9: animation and energy. (Not about energy).
    *   Sense 10: living things collectively. (Not about all living things).
    *   Sense 11: organic phenomenon. (Not biological).
    *   Sense 12: biography. (Not a book).
    *   Sense 13: motive for living. (Not his passion).
    *   Sense 14: prison term. (Not a sentence).

    *   Sense 2: "the experience of being alive; the course of human events and activities" (General human experience).
    *   Sense 3: "the course of existence of an individual; the actions and events that occur in living" (Individual's personal experience).

    The context "his life" refers specifically to the landlord's individual existence and the events/people (tenants) within it. Sense 3 is the most precise fit for "the course of existence of an individual."

    *   "tenants were a burden in his life" -> tenants were a burden in the course of his existence/his personal life.
    *   Example for Sense 3: "he wanted to live his own life without interference from others." This matches the idea of personal existence and the things that interfere with it.

    *   Phil sees the landlord (he "passed" him).
    *   The landlord is scowling.
    *   Phil shrugs and ignores him.
    *   This is a social interaction (or lack thereof). Phil is consciously choosing not to acknowledge the landlord's presence or mood.

    *   Sense 3 (`fail to notice`) is incorrect because Phil clearly noticed the landlord (he passed him and saw him scowling).
    *   Sense 5 (`be ignorant of`) is incorrect for the same reason.
    *   Sense 4 (`give little or no attention to`) is general, often used for things like errors or rules.
    *   Sense 2 (`bar from attention or consideration`) is often used for ideas, requests, or advances.
    *   Sense 1 (`refuse to acknowledge`) fits perfectly for a social situation where someone is present but you choose not to interact with them or acknowledge them (snubbing).

    *   Phil sees the landlord.
    *   Phil decides not to engage or acknowledge the landlord's scowl/presence.
    *   This aligns best with "refuse to acknowledge" (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 2: `prefer or wish to do something` (Synonyms: care, like) - This is about preference or wanting to perform an action (e.g., "Would you like to come along?"). Not a fit.
    *   Sense 3: `make or express a wish` (Example: "I wish that Christmas were over") - This is very similar to Sense 1. Let's look closer.
    *   Sense 4: `feel or express a desire or hope concerning the future or fortune of` (Synonyms: wish well) - This is usually used as "wish someone well" or "wish someone success." Not a fit.
    *   Sense 5: `order politely; express a wish for` - Not a fit.
    *   Sense 6: `invoke upon` (Synonyms: bid) - Not a fit.

    *   Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish` (Example: "I wish I could go home now")
    *   Sense 3: `make or express a wish` (Example: "I wish that Christmas were over")

    Wait, let me re-examine the WordNet structure if possible or look at the nuances.
    Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish`
    Sense 3: `make or express a wish`

    In the sentence "wished the stranger could do something about her", Haney is feeling a desire for a state of affairs to be different.

    Let's look at the examples again:
    Sense 1: "I wish I could go home now"
    Sense 3: "I wish that Christmas were over"

    These are almost identical in usage. However, usually, in these datasets:
    - Sense 1 (hope for) is the internal feeling of wanting something.
    - Sense 3 (make or express a wish) often refers to the act of wishing (like wishing on a star or explicitly stating a wish).

    Wait, let me re-read the provided senses carefully.
    1. `hope for; have a wish`
    3. `make or express a wish`

    Actually, looking at the context "wished the stranger could do something about her", this is a classic "I wish [that]..." construction expressing a desire for a different reality.

    Let's compare Sense 1 and Sense 3 again.
    Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish`
    Sense 3: `make or express a wish`

    In many WordNet versions:
    - `wish.n.01` (noun) is a desire.
    - `wish.v.01` (verb) is to feel or express a desire.

    Looking at the provided options:
    1. `hope for; have a wish`
    3. `make or express a wish`

    If I have to choose between "hope for" and "make or express", "hope for" (Sense 1) feels more like the internal state of wanting something to be different, while "make or express" (Sense 3) sounds more like the act of stating it. Haney is thinking this to himself (internal state).

    Let's double-check the examples:
    Sense 1: "I wish I could go home now"
    Sense 3: "I wish that Christmas were over"

    These examples are so similar it's tricky. Let's look at the definitions again.
    Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish`
    Sense 3: `make or express a wish`

    Actually, "I wish that Christmas were over" is an expression of a wish. "I wish I could go home now" is also an expression of a wish.

    Wait, let me look at the sense keys provided:
    1. `wish%2:37:00`
    3. `wish%2:32:02`

    In some WordNet versions:
    - `wish.v.01` (hope for)
    - `wish.v.02` (express a wish)

    If the context is "Haney... wished the stranger could do something", he is feeling the desire.

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
    Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish`
    Sense 3: `make or express a wish`

    If I say "I wish I were rich", am I *hoping for* it or *making/expressing* a wish? I am feeling the desire.

    Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 1: "I wish I could go home now"
    Sense 3: "I wish that Christmas were over"

    This is extremely subtle. Let's try to see if there's a distinction in the WordNet hierarchy.
    Sense 1 (hope for) is often the general desire.
    Sense 3 (make or express) is the act of wishing.

    In the sentence, "Haney mailed the monthly check... and wished the stranger could do something", the wishing is happening concurrently with the mailing. It's his internal state.

    Let's look at Sense 1 again: `hope for; have a wish`.
    Let's look at Sense 3 again: `make or express a wish`.

    Actually, "I wish I could go home now" (Sense 1) and "I wish that Christmas were over" (Sense 3) are both examples of the same grammatical construction. This is confusing.

    Let's search for these specific WordNet glosses.
    Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish`
    Sense 3: `make or express a wish`

    Wait, I see a pattern in some WordNet-based tasks where "hope for" is the internal desire and "make or express" is the act.

    Let's re-read the context: "Haney mailed the monthly check... and wished the stranger could do something about her". This sounds like a thought he had while mailing the check.

    If I have to choose the *best* one:
    Sense 1: `hope for; have a wish`
    Sense 3: `make or express a wish`

    "Hope for" is a more general state of wanting. "Make or express" is more about the act.

    Let's try Sense 1.

    Wait, let me look at the examples one more time.
    Sense 1: "I wish I could go home now"
    Sense 3: "I wish that Christmas were over"

    If "I wish I could go home now" is Sense 1, then "wished the stranger could do something" is almost identical in structure.

    Let's double-check Sense 3 again: "make or express a wish".
    Could "make a wish" mean like blowing out candles? Yes.
    Could "express a wish" mean saying "I wish..."? Yes.

    But "hope for" (Sense 1) is the core feeling.

    Let's look at the context again. "Haney mailed the monthly check... and wished the stranger could do something about her". This is a desire for a different state of affairs.

    Comparing:
    1. hope for; have a wish
    3. make or express a wish

    In the sentence "I wish I could go home now", the person is expressing a wish. But the sense is "hope for".

    Let's try Sense 1.

    *   The sentence is: "...Haney mailed the monthly check for separate maintenance to his wife Lolly, and wished the stranger could do something about her..."
    *   "Separate maintenance" usually refers to a legal arrangement where a married couple lives apart.
    *   Haney is sending money to his wife, Lolly.
    *   He refers to her as "the stranger".
    *   This implies that he no longer knows her, or she has become someone he is not acquainted with (emotionally or practically), despite being his wife.

    *   Sense 1: "anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found". This doesn't fit. Lolly isn't an alien or someone out of place in an environment; she's his estranged wife.
    *   Sense 2: "an individual that one is not acquainted with". This fits the context of an estranged spouse. He views her as a stranger because they are no longer acquainted/intimate.

    *   The use of "stranger" here is metaphorical/emotional, meaning they have grown apart to the point where she is like someone he doesn't know. This aligns best with "an individual that one is not acquainted with".

    *   Context: "...wished the stranger could do something about her Coming <t>home</t> from work, he was startled to see a police car parked in front of the apartment building."

    *   "Of course On Thursday, Haney mailed the monthly check for separate maintenance to his wife Lolly, and wished the stranger could do something about her Coming <t>home</t> from work, he was startled to see a police car parked in front of the apartment building."
    *   Actually, looking at the sentence structure: "...wished the stranger could do something about her Coming <t>home</t> from work, he was startled to see a police car..."
    *   Wait, there's a punctuation/grammar issue in the provided text ("Coming <t>home</t> from work, he was startled..."). It seems "Coming home from work" is a participial phrase modifying "he" (the narrator/Phil).
    *   Regardless of who is coming home, "home" here refers to the place where the person lives.

    *   Sense 1: `home%1:15:04::` - where you live at a particular time (synonym: place). Example: "deliver the package to my home".
    *   Sense 2: `home%1:06:00::` - housing that someone is living in (synonym: dwelling, domicile). Example: "provide homes for the homeless".
    *   Sense 3: `home%1:15:02::` - the country or state or city where you live. Example: "his home is New Jersey".
    *   Sense 4: `home%1:06:02::` - baseball base.

    *   Sense 9: `home%1:06:01::` - institution where people are cared for.

    *   The phrase "coming home from work" refers to returning to the place where one lives.
    *   Sense 1 ("where you live at a particular time") fits the adverbial use of "home" in "coming home".
    *   Sense 2 ("housing that someone is living in") refers to the physical structure (the dwelling).
    *   In "coming home", "home" is typically used as an adverb or a noun meaning the place of residence.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2:
        *   Sense 1: "where you live at a particular time" (place).
        *   Sense 2: "housing that someone is living in" (dwelling).
    *   "Coming home" usually means returning to the place where one lives (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1: "where you live at a particular time" (synonym: place).
    *   Sense 2: "housing that someone is living in" (synonym: dwelling).
    *   In the context of "coming home from work", it's the destination (the place), not specifically the physical building (though the building is where the place is).
    *   Looking at WordNet's typical distinctions, "coming home" aligns best with the sense of "the place where one lives".

    *   Sense 1: `home%1:15:04::` (where you live)
    *   Sense 2: `home%1:06:00::` (housing/dwelling)
    *   Sense 3: `home%1:15:02::` (country/state/city)
    *   Sense 1 is the most general and fits the usage "coming home".

    *   Wait, let me double-check the sense keys provided.
    *   1: `home%1:15:04::`
    *   2: `home%1:06:00::`
    *   3: `home%1:15:02::`
    *   ...
    *   The phrase "coming home" is a very common expression. Sense 1 ("where you live at a particular time") is the most appropriate for this usage.

    *   "Coming home from work" -> returning to the place where one lives.
    *   Sense 1: "where you live at a particular time".
    *   Sense 2: "housing that someone is living in".
    *   Sense 1 is the destination/place. Sense 2 is the physical structure. "Coming home" refers to the destination.

*   Target lemma: `stand`
    *   Target surface form: `standing`
    *   Context: "Inside the lobby, people were <t>standing</t> around, talking excitedly."

    *   Sense 1: `be standing; be upright` (e.g., "We had to stand for the entire performance!")
    *   Sense 2: `be in some specified state or condition` (e.g., "I stand corrected")
    *   Sense 3: `occupy a place or location, also metaphorically` (e.g., "We stand on common ground")
    *   Sense 4: `hold one's ground; maintain a position; be steadfast or upright` (e.g., "I am standing my ground")
    *   Sense 5: `put up with something or somebody unpleasant` (e.g., "I cannot bear his constant criticism")
    *   Sense 6: `have or maintain a position or stand on an issue` (e.g., "Where do you stand on the War?")
    *   Sense 7: `remain inactive or immobile` (e.g., "standing water")
    *   Sense 8: `be in effect; be or remain in force` (e.g., "The law stands!")
    *   Sense 9: `be tall; have a height of; copula` (e.g., "She stands 6 feet tall")

    *   Sense 11: `withstand the force of something` (e.g., "stand the test of time")
    *   Sense 12: `be available for stud services` (e.g., "male domestic animals")

    *   The sentence is "people were standing around, talking excitedly."
    *   This describes the physical posture of the people (upright on their feet) and their location (around the lobby).
    *   Sense 1 focuses on the posture ("be standing; be upright").
    *   Sense 3 focuses on the location ("occupy a place or location").
    *   In "standing around," the primary meaning is usually the physical posture of being on one's feet rather than sitting or lying down, often combined with a lack of specific purpose (though "around" adds the locational aspect).
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 3:
        *   Sense 1: "be standing; be upright"
        *   Sense 3: "occupy a place or location"
    *   Usually, "standing around" refers to the physical act of being upright (Sense 1). If the focus were purely on location (like "the house stands on a hill"), Sense 3 would be better. Here, the people are physically standing.

    *   Sense 1: "be standing; be upright" - Fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 3: "occupy a place or location" - While they are in a location, the core meaning of "standing" here is the posture.

    *   Sense 1 is the most direct fit for the physical act of being upright.

        6.  `talk%2:32:05::`: deliver a lecture or talk (synonym: lecture)

    *   The sentence is: "Inside the lobby, people were standing around, talking excitedly."
    *   The people are in a group ("people were standing around"), and they are interacting with each other.
    *   "Talking excitedly" in this context implies a social interaction or exchange of thoughts/information among the group.

    *   Sense 1: "exchange thoughts; talk with". This fits perfectly. People standing around in a lobby usually talk *to each other*.
    *   Sense 2: "express in speech". This is more about the act of producing speech rather than the social interaction.
    *   Sense 3: "use language". This is the most basic ability to speak (e.g., "the baby talks already"). Not the best fit here.
    *   Sense 4: "reveal information". This usually means confessing or giving up a secret under pressure. Not the case here.
    *   Sense 5: "divulge confidential information". Similar to Sense 4.
    *   Sense 6: "deliver a lecture". Not happening in a lobby with people standing around excitedly.

    *   Sense 1 is the most appropriate because it describes the social exchange of thoughts/conversation occurring among a group of people.

    *   Context: "His spine <t>crawled</t> with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened."

    *   Sense 1: move slowly; body near the ground (e.g., crocodile).
    *   Sense 2: feel as if crawling with insects (e.g., "My skin crawled--I was terrified").
    *   Sense 3: be full of (e.g., "cheese was crawling with maggots").
    *   Sense 4: show submission or fear (e.g., fawn, grovel).
    *   Sense 5: swim by doing the crawl.

    *   The phrase is "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition".
    *   This is a metaphorical use of "crawl" to describe a physical sensation of fear, dread, or disgust.
    *   Comparing this to the candidate senses:
        *   Sense 1 (physical movement) doesn't fit.
        *   Sense 2 ("feel as if crawling with insects", often used with "skin crawled" to express terror or disgust) fits the sensation described ("spine crawled with a foreboding premonition").
        *   Sense 3 ("be full of") usually refers to actual insects (maggots).
        *   Sense 4 (submission/fear) refers to behavior, not a physical sensation in the spine.
        *   Sense 5 (swimming) doesn't fit.

    *   "My skin crawled--I was terrified" (Sense 2) is almost identical in usage to "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition". Both describe a visceral reaction to fear or dread.

    *   Sense 2 is the best fit.

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `premonition%1:12:00::`: a feeling of evil to come (synonyms: foreboding, presentiment, boding).
        2.  `premonition%1:10:00::`: an early warning about a future event (synonyms: forewarning).

    *   The sentence says "His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition".
    *   "Spine crawled" indicates a physical reaction to a feeling of dread or fear.
    *   "Foreboding" is used as an adjective modifying "premonition".
    *   The context describes a feeling of dread before discovering the landlord had died.

    *   Sense 1: "a feeling of evil to come" (synonyms: foreboding, presentiment). This matches the "spine crawled" and the explicit use of "foreboding".
    *   Sense 2: "an early warning about a future event" (synonyms: forewarning). This usually implies a sign or a message, rather than an internal feeling of dread.

    *   The context strongly points to an internal feeling of dread/evil to come, which aligns perfectly with Sense 1.
