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

Context: U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term. The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the <t>text</t> is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate.

Senses:
1. definition=the words of something written | synonyms=textual matter | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text; they handed out the printed text of the mayor's speech
2. definition=a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon | examples=the preacher chose a text from Psalms to introduce his sermon
3. definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | synonyms=textbook, text edition, schoolbook, school text | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition; the professor wrote the text that he assigned students to buy
4. definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A U.N. group drafting a plan to reduce emissions. A "document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions" was released. The "text" provides a basis for a political deal and is "silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones."
    *   Target word: "text" (marked with `<t></t>`).
    *   Usage: "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the <t>text</t> is silent on..."

    *   Sense 1: "the words of something written" (synonyms: textual matter). Examples: "thousand words of text", "printed text of the mayor's speech".

    *   It is a written document/draft.
    *   It is not a Bible passage (Sense 2).
    *   It is not a school textbook (Sense 3).
    *   It is not specifically referring to the "main body" as opposed to illustrations/footnotes (Sense 4), but rather the written content/words of the document itself.
    *   Sense 1 ("the words of something written") fits best, as it refers to the written content of the draft plan.

    *   The context says "the release of a document... The text, which could provide the basis... the <t>text</t> is silent on...".
    *   This refers to the written words/content of the document.
    *   Sense 1 is the most general and accurate description of the written content of a legal or political document.

        3.  Official currency issued by a government (e.g., "changed his money into francs").

    *   The sentence discusses financial aid or transfers from rich countries to poor countries to help them cope with global warming.
    *   "How much money rich countries would give poor ones" refers to funds, financial resources, or the medium of exchange used for these transfers.

    *   Sense 1: "the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender". This fits the general idea of financial transfers/funds.
    *   Sense 2: "wealth reckoned in terms of money". This refers to net worth or assets. While the rich countries *have* wealth, the sentence is about the *amount* they will *give* (transfer), which is typically viewed as the medium of exchange (funds).
    *   Sense 3: "the official currency issued by a government". This refers to specific currencies (like dollars, euros, francs). The text isn't talking about which specific currency will be used, but rather the amount of financial resources.

    *   Sense 1 is the most general and appropriate for "how much money [someone] would give [someone else]". It refers to the funds/medium of exchange.

    *   Sense 1: Medium of exchange. (Correct)

    *   The text says "options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise..."
    *   Here, "questions" refers to the specific issues or topics being debated/negotiated (how to cut carbon, temperature limits).
    *   It's not a literal "sentence of inquiry" (Sense 3) or a "formal motion" (Sense 5).
    *   It's not "doubt" (Sense 4) or a "marriage proposal" (Sense 6).

    *   Sense 2: "the subject matter at issue".
    *   Example: "the question of disease merits serious discussion".
    *   In the context, "the key questions" are the key issues/subjects at issue in the climate negotiations.

    *   Sense 1 (Inquiry): "The key inquiries" - doesn't fit as well as "issues".
    *   Sense 2 (Subject matter): "The key issues/subjects at issue" - fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 3 (Interrogative sentence): "The key interrogative sentences" - doesn't fit.

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

Context: U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term. The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature <t>rise</t> that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club.

reasoning_content:
*   Context: "...what would be the upper limit of global temperature <t>rise</t> that policymakers would be willing to tolerate."
    *   Target word: "rise"
    *   Meaning in context: An increase in the global temperature.

    *   Sense 1: a growth in strength or number or importance (e.g., the rise of an empire).
    *   Sense 2: the act of changing location in an upward direction (e.g., rising from a chair).
    *   Sense 3: an upward slope or grade (e.g., a hill).
    *   Sense 4: a movement upward (e.g., a balloon rising).
    *   Sense 5: the amount a salary is increased (e.g., a pay raise).
    *   Sense 6: the property possessed by a slope or surface that rises.
    *   Sense 7: a wave that lifts the surface of the water or ground.
    *   Sense 8: (theology) the origination of the Holy Spirit.
    *   Sense 9: an increase in cost (e.g., price hike).
    *   Sense 10: increase in price or value (e.g., stock market advance).

    *   The context refers to "global temperature rise." This is an increase in a numerical value (temperature).
    *   Looking at the senses again:
        *   Sense 1: "growth in strength or number or importance". Temperature is a number/value.
        *   Sense 2, 3, 4, 6, 7: Physical movement or slope. (Incorrect)
        *   Sense 5: Salary. (Incorrect)
        *   Sense 8: Theology. (Incorrect)
        *   Sense 9: Cost. (Incorrect)
        *   Sense 10: Price or value. (Incorrect)

    *   Wait, let me re-evaluate Sense 1. "a growth in strength or number or importance".
    *   Is there a better fit?
    *   Let's look at the options again.
    *   1: growth in strength or number or importance.
    *   9: increase in cost.
    *   10: increase in price or value.
    *   None of them explicitly say "increase in a measurement" like temperature.
    *   However, "number" in Sense 1 could encompass a numerical value like temperature.
    *   Let's double-check if "rise" in "temperature rise" fits any other sense.
    *   Sense 4: "a movement upward". Temperature "goes up". But "movement upward" usually implies physical displacement.
    *   Sense 1: "growth in strength or number or importance".

    *   Let's search for "rise" definitions in other dictionaries.
    *   Merriam-Webster: "an act of rising", "an increase in amount, number, or level".
    *   Oxford: "an increase in amount, number, or level".

    *   Comparing "increase in amount, number, or level" to the provided senses:
        *   Sense 1: "a growth in strength or number or importance". This is the closest.

    *   Let's re-read the senses carefully.
    *   1. growth in strength or number or importance.
    *   2. changing location upward.
    *   3. upward slope.
    *   4. movement upward.
    *   5. salary increase.
    *   6. property of a slope.
    *   7. wave.
    *   8. theology.
    *   9. increase in cost.
    *   10. increase in price or value.

    *   Temperature rise is an increase in the numerical value of the temperature. "Number" in Sense 1 is the best fit among the choices provided.

    *   Wait, could it be Sense 4? "a movement upward". In some contexts, "rise" as in "temperature rise" is seen as a movement up a scale. But Sense 4's example is a hot-air balloon.
    *   Could it be Sense 1? "growth in strength or number or importance". Example: "the rise of the middle class" (number/importance).

    *   Let's look at Sense 1 again. "growth in strength or number or importance".
    *   If temperature increases, the *number* representing the temperature increases.

    *   Let's check if there's any other possibility.
    *   Sense 9 and 10 are specific to money.
    *   Sense 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 are physical.
    *   Sense 8 is theological.
    *   Sense 5 is salary.

    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the only one that can reasonably cover a general increase in a numerical value.

    *   Context: "upper limit of global temperature rise"
    *   Sense 1: "a growth in strength or number or importance"
    *   Does "temperature rise" = "growth in number"? Yes, in the sense of the numerical value increasing.

    *   Wait, let me think if "rise" in "temperature rise" is more like "movement upward" (Sense 4).
    *   Sense 4: "a movement upward | synonyms=rising, ascent, ascension | examples=they cheered the rise of the hot-air balloon".
    *   This is clearly physical.

    *   Let's re-examine Sense 1. "a growth in strength or number or importance".
    *   If we say "the rise in temperature", we mean the increase in the number.

    *   Let's double-check if there are any other senses I missed.
    *   1. growth in strength or number or importance.
    *   (No other general "increase" sense).

    *   Conclusion: Sense 1 is the most appropriate.

    *   The text mentions a "range of options" for key questions.
    *   The document is described as focusing on the "big picture" rather than rigid details.
    *   "Flexibility to the process" in this context means the process is adaptable, allows for different options, and isn't strictly fixed.

    *   Sense 1 (Physical): Not applicable. The "process" of a climate conference isn't physically bent.

    *   Role of the person: John Coequyt is a "senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club."

    *   Sense 1: "a person who represents others" (General definition).

    *   John Coequyt is not a member of the US House of Representatives (Sense 3).
    *   John Coequyt is a person, not an item of information (Sense 4).
    *   He is acting on behalf of the Sierra Club (an organization) in Washington.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2:
        *   Sense 1 is very broad ("a person who represents others").
        *   Sense 2 is more specific ("an advocate who represents someone else's policy or purpose", "spokesperson").
        *   In the context of a lobbyist or an official for an organization (Sierra Club) in a political capital (Washington), he is acting as a spokesperson or advocate for that organization's policies.

    *   Sense 1: General representation.
    *   Sense 2: Specifically an advocate/spokesperson for a policy or purpose.
    *   Looking at the context: "senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club." This describes a professional role where the person represents the interests and policies of the organization. This fits Sense 2 very well.

    *Wait*, let me re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 2.
    Sense 1: "a person who represents others"
    Sense 2: "an advocate who represents someone else's policy or purpose"

    Often, in these types of NLP tasks (like WordNet-based sense disambiguation), "representative" as a job title for an organization (like a sales representative or a regional representative) can fall under Sense 1. However, a "Washington representative" for an environmental group (Sierra Club) is specifically there to advocate for their policies.

    Let's look at the synonyms for Sense 2: "spokesperson, interpreter, voice".
    John Coequyt is quoted giving his opinion/analysis on the document ("It gives a lot of flexibility to the process..."). This is the act of a spokesperson/advocate.

    Let's double-check if Sense 1 is more appropriate. Sense 1 is the most general. Sense 2 is a specific type of representative. Usually, if a more specific sense fits perfectly, it's the intended one.

    Wait, let's look at the provided senses again.
    1. a person who represents others
    2. an advocate who represents someone else's policy or purpose

    Is a "Washington representative" for an NGO an "advocate"? Yes. Is he a "person who represents others"? Yes.

    Let's compare with common usage in these datasets. Often, "representative" in a professional capacity (like a company rep) is Sense 1. But "representative" in a political/advocacy capacity is Sense 2.

    Let's re-read Sense 2: "an advocate who represents someone else's policy or purpose".
    The Sierra Club is an organization with policies and purposes. John Coequyt is their representative in Washington. This fits Sense 2 perfectly.

    Let's check Sense 1 again. "a person who represents others". This is very generic.

    If I have to choose between a general sense and a specific sense that fits well, I'll go with the specific one.

    *Self-Correction:* Let me think about "representative" in "sales representative". That would be Sense 1. "Representative" in "House Representative" is Sense 3. "Representative" in "a representative sample" is Sense 4. "Representative" in "the representative for the union" or "the representative for the company" (when advocating) is Sense 2.

    John Coequyt is representing the Sierra Club's interests in Washington. This is advocacy.

    Final check:
    Context: "senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club"
    Sense 1: person who represents others.
    Sense 2: advocate who represents someone else's policy or purpose.
    Sense 3: US House member.
    Sense 4: typical example.

    Sense 2 is the most precise fit for a lobbyist/advocate role.

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

Context: The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club. Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page <t>document</t>, boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as "the big picture." It shows the outlines for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 levels, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent.

Senses:
1. definition=writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature) | synonyms=written document, papers
2. definition=anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks
3. definition=a written account of ownership or obligation
4. definition=(computer science) a computer file that contains text (and possibly formatting instructions) using seven-bit ASCII characters | synonyms=text file

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A text about a political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, a negotiation process involving world leaders, a U.N. ad-hoc working group, and a six-page "document" drafted by Michael Zammit Cutajar.
    *   Target word: "document" (marked with `<t></t>`).
    *   Usage: "...Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page <t>document</t>, boiled down a 180-page negotiation text..."

    *   Sense 1: "writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature)" | synonyms: written document, papers.
    *   Sense 2: "anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks".
    *   Sense 3: "a written account of ownership or obligation".
    *   Sense 4: "(computer science) a computer file that contains text... using seven-bit ASCII characters".

    *   The "document" in the text is a six-page draft of a political deal/negotiation text.
    *   It provides information about greenhouse gas regulation and outlines a possible deal.
    *   It is official in nature (U.N. ad-hoc working group).
    *   Sense 1 fits perfectly: "writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature)".
    *   Sense 2 is too broad/abstract.
    *   Sense 3 is for deeds, titles, or contracts of ownership/debt, which this is not.
    *   Sense 4 is a technical computer science definition.

Sense 1 is the correct match.

Senses:
1. definition=a discussion intended to produce an agreement | synonyms=dialogue, talks | examples=the buyout negotiation lasted several days; they disagreed but kept an open dialogue
2. definition=the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A text about a political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, involving world leaders, a U.N. working group, and a "negotiation text."
    *   Target word: "negotiation" in the phrase "boiled down a 180-page <t>negotiation</t> text".
    *   Senses:
        1.  A discussion intended to produce an agreement (dialogue, talks).
        2.  The activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms.

    *   The phrase is "negotiation text".
    *   In this context, "negotiation" acts as an adjective (attributive noun) modifying "text".
    *   What kind of text is it? It's a text used *during* the process of negotiating or a text that is the *result* of the activity of negotiating.
    *   Sense 1 refers to the *discussion* itself (the act of talking).
    *   Sense 2 refers to the *activity or business* of negotiating.

    *   Sense 1: "the buyout negotiation lasted several days" (The event/discussion).
    *   Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement".

    *   Wait, let's look closer. "Negotiation text" usually refers to a document used in the *process* of negotiating.
    *   Is it a "discussion text" (Sense 1) or an "activity of negotiating text" (Sense 2)?
    *   Actually, looking at the senses provided:
        1. a discussion intended to produce an agreement.
        2. the activity or business of negotiating an agreement.

    *   In "negotiation text", "negotiation" describes the purpose or nature of the text. It's a text for the *negotiation* (the process/activity).
    *   Let's re-read the context: "But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time..." (Here, "negotiation" clearly fits Sense 1 or 2).
    *   Then: "...boiled down a 180-page negotiation text..."
    *   If we substitute:
        *   "discussion text" (Sense 1)
        *   "activity of negotiating text" (Sense 2)

    *   Actually, in many dictionaries, "negotiation" as a process/activity is very similar to "negotiation" as a discussion.
    *   Let's look at the nuance:
        Sense 1: The specific instance of talking (the talks).
        Sense 2: The general activity/business of coming to terms.

    *   A "negotiation text" is a text used in the *process* of negotiating.
    *   Looking at the provided senses again:
        1. a discussion intended to produce an agreement.
        2. the activity or business of negotiating an agreement.

    *   In the phrase "negotiation text", it refers to the text associated with the *process* of negotiating.
    *   Let's check the first instance of "negotiation" in the text: "...an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time..." This refers to the overall process/talks.
    *   The "negotiation text" is the document used in those talks.

    *   Is "negotiation" in "negotiation text" referring to the *discussion* (Sense 1) or the *activity/business* (Sense 2)?
    *   Usually, "negotiation" as an adjective modifying a noun (like "negotiation skills", "negotiation process", "negotiation text") relates to the *activity* of negotiating.

    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement".
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement".

    *   If I say "the negotiation text", I mean the text used for the *activity* of negotiating.
    *   However, "negotiation" in "negotiation text" is often synonymous with "the talks". "The talks text" doesn't sound right, but "the text of the negotiations" does.

    *   Let's look at the examples for Sense 1: "the buyout negotiation lasted several days". This is a specific event.
    *   Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement". This is more general.

    *   In "negotiation text", it's the text used for the *process* (the activity).

    *   Wait, let me search for these specific sense definitions. They look like they might come from a specific dataset (like WordNet or a similar lexical database).
    *   Sense 1: a discussion intended to produce an agreement.
    *   Sense 2: the activity or business of negotiating an agreement.

    *   In the context "negotiation text", it's a text used *for* the negotiation.
    *   If "negotiation" means "the discussion", then it's a "discussion text".
    *   If "negotiation" means "the activity of negotiating", then it's an "activity-of-negotiating text".

    *   Actually, looking at the context again: "But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time..."
    *   This "negotiation" (the process) is what the "negotiation text" belongs to.
    *   The "negotiation text" is the document that records or guides the *activity* of negotiating.

    *   Let's try to see if Sense 2 is a better fit for the *process* and Sense 1 for the *event*.
    *   Sense 1: "the buyout negotiation" (a specific event).
    *   Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating" (the general process).

    *   A "negotiation text" is a text used in the *activity* of negotiating.

    *   Let's double-check. If I have to choose between "discussion" and "activity/business", "activity/business" (Sense 2) feels slightly more encompassing for the nature of a "negotiation text".

    *   Wait, let me think about this again. "Negotiation text" -> "Text of the negotiation".
    *   If "negotiation" = "discussion", then "Text of the discussion".
    *   If "negotiation" = "activity of negotiating", then "Text of the activity of negotiating".

    *   Actually, in many contexts, "negotiation" (the process) is Sense 2.
    *   Let's look at the first use: "an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time". This refers to the overall process/activity.
    *   The "negotiation text" is the text for that same process.

    *   Let's compare:
        1. a discussion intended to produce an agreement.
        2. the activity or business of negotiating an agreement.

    *   Is a "negotiation text" a "discussion text" or an "activity of negotiating text"?
    *   It's a text used *during* the activity of negotiating.

    *   Let's consider if Sense 1 is more likely. "The buyout negotiation" (Sense 1) is a specific instance. "The negotiation text" is a text for a specific instance of negotiations (the Copenhagen climate talks).

    *   Let's re-read: "boiled down a 180-page negotiation text".
    *   This text is the result of the *activity* of negotiating (Sense 2) or the text used for the *discussion* (Sense 1).

    *   Actually, "negotiation" as an adjective often maps to the general activity.
    *   Let's try to find this specific example online. (Searching for "boiled down a 180-page negotiation text").
    *   This text is from a news article about the 2009 Copenhagen climate summit.

    *   Looking at the senses again:
        1. a discussion intended to produce an agreement.
        2. the activity or business of negotiating an agreement.

    *   If the "negotiation" is the "talks" (Sense 1), then "negotiation text" is the "talks text".
    *   If the "negotiation" is the "activity" (Sense 2), then "negotiation text" is the "activity text".

    *   Wait, "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement" (Sense 2) is almost exactly what a "negotiation text" supports.

    *   Let's think about the difference between "a discussion" and "the activity".
    *   A discussion is a specific event.
    *   The activity is the broader process.

    *   The "negotiation text" is the document used throughout the *process* (the activity).

    *   Let's try Sense 2.

    *   *Self-Correction:* Let me re-read Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement | synonyms=dialogue, talks".
    *   If we replace "negotiation" with "talks": "boiled down a 180-page talks text". (Doesn't sound great).
    *   If we replace "negotiation" with "dialogue": "boiled down a 180-page dialogue text". (Doesn't sound great).

    *   Now Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement".
    *   "boiled down a 180-page [activity of negotiating] text".

    *   Wait, maybe I'm overthinking. Let's look at the first instance again: "an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time".
    *   Here, "negotiation" means the overall process/talks.
    *   If "negotiation" in "negotiation text" refers to the same thing, and that thing is "the activity or business of negotiating", then it's Sense 2.

    *   Let's re-examine Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement".
    *   Is the "negotiation" in "negotiation text" a "discussion"? No, the *text* is not a discussion. The text is *for* the negotiation.

    *   Is the "negotiation" in "negotiation text" the "activity of negotiating"? Yes, it's a text used in that activity.

    *   Let's check Sense 2 again: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms".
    *   This seems to fit the broader process better.

    *   Let's double-check Sense 1 again. "the buyout negotiation lasted several days". This is a specific instance of the activity.
    *   The "negotiation text" is a text for a specific instance of the activity (the Copenhagen talks).

    *   Wait, if Sense 1 is "a discussion" (singular) and Sense 2 is "the activity" (general), then "a negotiation" (as in "an important advance in a negotiation") would be Sense 1.
    *   And "negotiation text" would then be a text for that "negotiation" (Sense 1).

    *   Let's re-read: "an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time".
    *   This "negotiation" is a specific one (the one for the climate deal).
    *   Therefore, it's "a discussion intended to produce an agreement" (Sense 1).
    *   And the "negotiation text" is the text for *that* specific discussion.

    *   Let's try that logic.
    *   Sense 1: a specific discussion/talks.
    *   Sense 2: the general activity of negotiating.

    *   In the context, we are talking about a *specific* negotiation (the one in Copenhagen).
    *   So, "a negotiation that is running out of time" = Sense 1.
    *   "a 180-page negotiation text" = a text for that specific negotiation = Sense 1.

    *   Let's test this. If Sense 2 was "the general activity of negotiating", then "a negotiation that is running out of time" wouldn't make as much sense, because the *general activity* of negotiating doesn't run out of time; a *specific* negotiation does.

    *   Therefore, "negotiation" in this context refers to the specific process/discussion.

    *   Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement" (Specific instance).
    *   Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement" (General activity).

    *   Context: "an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time" -> Specific instance.
    *   Context: "a 180-page negotiation text" -> Text for that specific instance.

    *   Conclusion: Sense 1.

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

Context: The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club. Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page negotiation <t>text</t> to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as "the big picture." It shows the outlines for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 levels, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent.

Senses:
1. definition=the words of something written | synonyms=textual matter | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text; they handed out the printed text of the mayor's speech
2. definition=a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon | examples=the preacher chose a text from Psalms to introduce his sermon
3. definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | synonyms=textbook, text edition, schoolbook, school text | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition; the professor wrote the text that he assigned students to buy
4. definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A passage about a political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, mentioning a "six-page document" and a "180-page negotiation <t>text</t>".
    *   Target word: "text" (marked with <t></t>).
    *   Senses provided:

        4.  The main body of a written work (distinct from illustrations/footnotes).

    *   The sentence is: "Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page negotiation <t>text</t> to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as 'the big picture.'"
    *   Here, "negotiation text" refers to the written document containing the words/proposals of the negotiation.

    *   Sense 1: "the words of something written" / "textual matter". This fits perfectly. A negotiation text is the written content of the negotiation.
    *   Sense 2: "passage from the Bible". Not applicable.
    *   Sense 3: "book prepared for use in schools". Not applicable.
    *   Sense 4: "main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes)". While it is a written work, the context isn't contrasting the text with images or footnotes; it's referring to the document as a whole (the written content).

    *   The "negotiation text" is the written record/draft of the agreement. This aligns best with Sense 1.

    *   "The big picture" is a common idiom meaning the entire perspective on a situation.
    *   Sense 4 defines "picture" as "a situation treated as an observable object" with the example "the political picture is favorable".
    *   In the context of climate negotiations, "the big picture" refers to the overall situation/framework of the deal.

    *   Sense 3: "a clear and telling mental image". While "the big picture" is a mental concept, it's not an "image" in the sense of visualizing a specific scene, but rather understanding the overall state of affairs.
    *   Sense 4: "a situation treated as an observable object". This aligns better with the usage of "picture" to describe a set of circumstances or a general state of affairs (like "the political picture").

    *   The phrase "the big picture" almost always maps to the general situation or overall perspective. Sense 4 is the best fit among the provided options.

Context: But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club. Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as "the big picture." It shows the <t>outlines</t> for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 levels, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent. Together, the countries would cut emissions between 50 and 95 percent by 2050.

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A text about climate negotiations in Copenhagen. A six-page document was created to focus on the "big picture." The sentence is: "It shows the <t>outlines</t> for a possible deal..."
    *   Target word: "outlines" (plural of outline).
    *   Senses provided:
        1.  The line that appears to bound an object (lineation).
        2.  A sketchy summary of the main points of an argument or theory (synopsis, abstract, precis).
        3.  A schematic or preliminary plan (schema, scheme).

    *   The "outlines" refer to a "possible deal."
    *   The document "boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on... 'the big picture'."
    *   It describes general targets (emissions cuts by 2020 and 2050).
    *   This is not a physical boundary (Sense 1).
    *   Is it a "sketchy summary of the main points" (Sense 2) or a "schematic or preliminary plan" (Sense 3)?

    *   Sense 2 (Summary): A summary describes what is already there or the main points of an existing argument.
    *   Sense 3 (Preliminary plan): A plan describes how something *will* be done or the structure of a proposed agreement.
    *   The text says "outlines for a possible deal." A "deal" is an agreement/plan. The document provides the framework or preliminary structure for that deal.
    *   Comparing "summary of an argument" vs "preliminary plan for a deal": "Preliminary plan" fits "possible deal" much better.

    *   Sense 1: Physical boundary. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 2: Summary of an argument/theory. (Possible, but "deal" is more of a plan/agreement than an argument/theory).
    *   Sense 3: Schematic or preliminary plan. (Fits perfectly: a preliminary plan for a deal).

    *   The document is a condensed version of a larger text, serving as a framework for a future agreement. This aligns with a "preliminary plan."
