Context:
Major U.S. firms such as Chevron and ConocoPhillips, which have cultivated close ties with the Iraqi Oil Ministry and have provided technical advice in recent years, walked away empty-handed. Russian companies Lukoil and Gazprom were the top stakeholders in two of the contracts awarded this weekend. State-owned China National Petroleum Corporation bid on more contracts than any other company and walked away with large stakes in contracts for two major fields. We all know that China is on track to become a major economic as well as technological power, Oil Ministry spokesman Assam Jihad said. We feel confident that the Chinese company will be on par with its competitors and will deliver on its commitments towards Iraq. Companies pre-selected to submit bids made offers that were then compared to the per barrel fee the ministry was willing to pay for boosting output above current levels at each <t>field</t>.

    *   "US banks repay state support"
    *   "breaking free from their state shackles"
    *   In this context, "state support" and "state shackles" refer to the government's intervention, funding, or control over the banks.

    *   Sense 1 (province): Unlikely. While US banks might get support from a specific state (like New York), "state support" in the context of a financial crisis usually refers to the government (federal or general).
    *   Sense 2 (condition): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 3 (government): "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state". This fits well. "State support" = government support.
    *   Sense 4 (nation/body politic): "a politically organized body of people under a single government". This is close, but Sense 3 specifically refers to the *government* acting as an entity.
    *   Sense 5 (chemistry): Incorrect.

    *   Sense 4: "a politically organized body of people under a single government" (Example: "the state has elected a new president").
    *   In "state support" and "state shackles", "state" is used as an adjective (attributive noun) meaning "governmental". Sense 3 is the most precise fit for the government as an administrative/controlling entity.

    *   Sense 3: government.
    *   Sense 4: nation.
    *   "State support" = government support.

    *   Sense 3 is the best fit.

        *   Sense 11: "financial resources provided to make some project possible" (funding, backing, financial backing).

    *   While "making a project possible" might seem narrow, "financial backing" or "funding" fits the concept of a government bailout/capital injection for banks much better than "livelihood" (Sense 6) or "maintaining by supplying with money" (Sense 1).
    *   "Repay state support" $\approx$ "Repay state funding/backing".

    *   Sense 11: `financial resources provided to make some project possible | synonyms=financial support, funding, backing, financial backing`.
    *   This fits the context of banks receiving money from the state to survive/stabilize during a crisis.

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `shackle%1:06:00::`: a restraint that confines or restricts freedom (especially something used to tie down or restrain a prisoner). Synonyms: bond, hamper, trammel.
        2.  `shackle%1:06:01::`: a U-shaped bar; the open end can be passed through chain links and closed with a bar.

    *   The sentence says banks are "breaking free from their state shackles."
    *   "State shackles" in this context refers to the restrictions or conditions imposed by the government (state support/TARP) that limited the banks' freedom of action.
    *   This is a metaphorical use of "shackles" meaning restraints or restrictions.

    *   Sense 1: "a restraint that confines or restricts freedom". This fits perfectly, both literally (as a physical restraint) and metaphorically (as a restriction on freedom).
    *   Sense 2: "a U-shaped bar". This is a specific physical object (hardware). It does not fit the metaphorical context of government restrictions.

    *   Sense 1 is the correct choice.

US banks repay state support The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles. On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the bank protection fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go. And, according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the <t>state</t> support. 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.

*   Target lemma: `state`
    *   Target surface form: `state`
    *   Context: "US banks repay state support... Citigroup is also planning to repay the <t>state</t> support."
    *   Meaning: The "state" here refers to the government (specifically the US federal government) providing financial support (TARP) to banks.

    *   Sense 1: Territory of a constituent administrative district (e.g., Texas, Bavaria).
    *   Sense 2: Condition/way something is (e.g., state of health).
    *   Sense 3: The group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state (e.g., "the state has lowered its income tax").

    *   The context is about banks repaying "state support" (TARP).
    *   TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) was a program run by the US government.
    *   "State support" in this context means support provided by the government.
    *   Sense 3 ("the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state") fits best because it refers to the government as an entity that provides support, taxes, etc.
    *   Sense 4 ("a politically organized body of people") is more about the nation/country as a whole.
    *   Sense 1 ("constituent administrative district") would mean the individual US states (like New York or California), but TARP was a federal program.

    *   Sense 3: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state" (Example: "the state has lowered its income tax"). This aligns perfectly with the government providing financial support.

        3.  `restriction%1:04:01::`: the act of keeping something within specified bounds (by force if necessary) (synonym: confinement). Example: "restriction of the infection to a focal area".

    *   The context mentions "restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges."
    *   These are rules or conditions imposed by the state (TARP) as a condition for receiving financial support.
    *   They are "limits on manager bonuses," which are rules/principles that limit what the banks can do.

    *   Sense 3 (`restriction%1:04:01::`) is about confinement or keeping something in a specific area (like an infection). This doesn't fit.
    *   Sense 2 (`restriction%1:04:00::`) is "an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation)". This describes the *process* or the *action* of limiting.
    *   Sense 1 (`restriction%1:09:00::`) is "a principle that limits the extent of something". This describes the *rule* or *condition* itself.

    *   The text says "the restrictions... such as the limits on manager bonuses".
    *   "Limits on manager bonuses" are the specific rules/principles.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2:
        *   Sense 1: "a principle that limits the extent of something" (e.g., "restrictions on my movements").
        *   Sense 2: "an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation)".
    *   In the sentence "wiggle themselves free from the restrictions", the banks are trying to get rid of the *rules* (the principles/limitations) imposed on them, not the *act* of imposing them.
    *   Sense 1 fits better as it refers to the constraints themselves.

    *   Sense 1: Principle/limitation (e.g., restrictions on movement).
    *   Sense 2: Act of limiting (regulation).
    *   The "restrictions" here are the specific conditions (limits on bonuses) attached to the money. These are principles/rules that limit the banks' actions.

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 2: "an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation)". Often, "restriction" in a legal/regulatory context can be the rule itself.
    *   However, Sense 1 "a principle that limits the extent of something" is very close to "limitation".
    *   Let's look at the examples. Sense 1: "restrictions on my movements". This is very similar to "restrictions on manager bonuses".
    *   Sense 2 is the *act* of limiting.
    *   The banks want to be free from the *rules* (the restrictions), not the *act* of being restricted.

    *   Sense 1: a principle that limits the extent of something.
    *   Sense 2: an act of limiting or restricting.
    *   The "restrictions" are the "limits on manager bonuses". A limit is a principle/rule.

    *   Sense 1: restriction%1:09:00::
    *   Sense 2: restriction%1:04:00::
    *   Sense 3: restriction%1:04:01::

    *   The context "restrictions... such as the limits on manager bonuses" strongly points to Sense 1.

    *   Surrounding context: US banks repaying state support (TARP), Bank of America repaid USD 45 billion, Citigroup planning to repay.

    *   Sense 1: `money%1:21:00::` - the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender. (General concept of money as a medium of exchange).
    *   Sense 2: `money%1:21:02::` - wealth reckoned in terms of money. (Net worth, assets).
    *   Sense 3: `money%1:21:01::` - the official currency issued by a government or national bank. (Specific currency, e.g., dollars, francs).

    *   The "money" refers to the "state support" (TARP funds) provided to the banks.
    *   TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) involved the government providing capital/funds to banks.
    *   Is it "wealth reckoned in terms of money" (Sense 2)? No, it's a specific sum of funds provided for a purpose.
    *   Is it "official currency issued by a government" (Sense 3)? While it is currency, the context isn't about the *type* of currency (like changing dollars to francs), but rather the *funds* or *capital* provided.
    *   Is it "the most common medium of exchange" (Sense 1)? In a broad sense, yes. When people refer to "the money" in the context of a loan or a grant, they are usually referring to the funds/medium of exchange.

    *   Sense 1 is the general term for funds/money used in transactions.
    *   Sense 2 is about wealth/assets.
    *   Sense 3 is about the specific currency system.

    The banks accepted "the money" (the funds/capital provided by the state). This fits the general usage of money as a medium of exchange/funds (Sense 1) rather than their overall wealth (Sense 2) or the specific nature of the currency (Sense 3).

    *   "acceptance of the money" = acceptance of the funds.
    *   Sense 1: "the most common medium of exchange" (often used to mean "funds").
    *   Sense 2: "wealth reckoned in terms of money" (e.g., "He has a lot of money").
    *   Sense 3: "the official currency" (e.g., "I need to exchange my money").

    The context is about a specific amount of funds (USD 45 billion) provided as support. This is most accurately described by Sense 1.

US banks repay state support The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles. On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the bank protection fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go. And, according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the state support. The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the <t>limits</t> on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges. Bank of America had raised some USD 19 billion from investors through convertible loans.

*   Target lemma: `limit`
    *   Target surface form: `limits`
    *   Context: "...the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the <t>limits</t> on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges."
    *   Meaning: The context refers to restrictions placed on manager bonuses (i.e., a maximum amount allowed).

    *   Sense 1: "the greatest possible degree of something" (bound, boundary). Example: "beyond the bounds of acceptable behavior". (More about abstract limits or capacity).
    *   Sense 2: "final or latest limiting point" (terminus ad quem). (More about time or a specific end point).
    *   Sense 3: "as far as something can go". (Similar to sense 1, often used in phrases like "push to the limit").
    *   Sense 4: "the boundary of a specific area" (demarcation). (Physical boundary).
    *   Sense 5: "the mathematical value..." (Calculus).
    *   Sense 6: "the greatest amount of something that is possible or allowed" (limitation). Example: "there are limits on the amount you can bet".

    *   The context "limits on manager bonuses" refers to a cap or a maximum allowed amount.
    *   Sense 6 specifically mentions "the greatest amount of something that is... allowed" and provides the example "limits on the amount you can bet". This matches the context perfectly.

*   Target lemma: `bonus`
    *   Target surface form: `bonuses`
    *   Context: "...such as the limits on manager <t>bonuses</t> and the paying of high charges."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `bonus%1:09:00::`: anything that tends to arouse (synonym: fillip).
        2.  `bonus%1:21:00::`: an additional payment (or other remuneration) to employees as a means of increasing output (synonym: incentive).

    *   The sentence discusses US banks repaying state support (TARP) to remove restrictions.
    *   One of the restrictions mentioned is "limits on manager bonuses".
    *   In the context of banking and managers, "bonuses" refers to additional monetary payments given to employees (incentives), not something that "arouses" in a general sense (like a fillip).

    *   Sense 1: "anything that tends to arouse" (e.g., "his approval was an added fillip"). This doesn't fit the financial context of manager payments.
    *   Sense 2: "an additional payment (or other remuneration) to employees as a means of increasing output" (synonym: incentive). This perfectly fits "manager bonuses" in a banking context.

    *   The correct sense is index 2.
