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

Context: Another question is what type of advantage the violators obtained in the actions deliberately carried out. Here it seems necessary to state that it isn't a disadvantageous situation for rival nor is an obtained benefit in the same game, because evidently the result of the action supposes leaving their own team with less players. And neither is it a useful strategy for the next game, because the club will not be able to count on those players. The advantage, obviously, consists in the fact that the players will begin the following phase of the Championship without cards that could threaten their participation in a future game. But it is about a long term advantage, with a certain degree of indetermination, because the team can be eliminated first of change, and in addition with this action the players fulfil a sanction game and go to the second cycle of cards, in which the suspension by card accumulation takes place with one less than in the first cycle. So that, by passing <t>rounds</t>, it is not so clear that it is an advantage. Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules.

*   Context: A text discussing sports violations, players getting cards, sanctions, and the long-term advantage of starting a new phase of a championship without cards.
    *   Target word: "rounds" (in the phrase "by passing rounds").
    *   Meaning in context: The text talks about a "Championship," "following phase," "future game," and "sanction game." "Passing rounds" here refers to the progression through the stages or matches of a tournament or championship.

    *   1: Ammunition (Incorrect)
    *   2: An interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs (cycle, rhythm). (Possible, but usually refers to seasons or cycles).

    *   4: Professional calls (Incorrect)
    *   5: 18 holes of golf (Incorrect)
    *   6: Daily activities (Incorrect)
    *   7: (Sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive (turn, bout). (Wait, this is sports-related, but "passing rounds" in a championship usually means the stages of the tournament, not offensive turns).

    *   The context is a sports championship.
    *   "Passing rounds" refers to moving from one stage of the competition to the next (e.g., Round of 16, Quarter-finals, etc.).
    *   Looking at the provided senses again... none of them explicitly say "a stage in a tournament."
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs | synonyms=cycle, rhythm".
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive | synonyms=turn, bout".
    *   Wait, is there a missing sense? Let me look closer at the provided list.
    *   Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs". A tournament round is a sequence of games.
    *   Sense 7: "a division during which one team is on the offensive". This is definitely not it.

    *   Wait, let me look at the senses again. Is there any other that fits?
    *   1. Ammunition
    *   2. Interval/cycle
    *   3. Sentry route
    *   4. Professional calls

    *   12. Applause
    *   13. Chair leg
    *   14. Circular mechanism

    *   If "rounds" means the stages of a tournament, which of these is the closest?
    *   Sense 2 mentions "cycle". The text mentions "second cycle of cards".
    *   Actually, looking at the phrase "by passing rounds", it means progressing through the tournament.
    *   Is "round" in a tournament considered a "recurring sequence of events" (Sense 2)? Not exactly.
    *   Is it a "division" (Sense 7)? Sense 7 specifies "one team is on the offensive". That's not it.

    *   Let me search for other definitions of "round" in a dictionary.
    *   Common definitions:
        a) Circular.
        b) A stage in a competition (e.g., the first round of boxing or a tournament).
        c) A series of drinks.
        d) A sequence of calls.
        e) A cycle.

    *   Looking at the provided list again, none of them explicitly define "round" as a stage in a competition.
    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs | synonyms=cycle, rhythm".
    *   Let me re-read Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive | synonyms=turn, bout".
    *   Wait, "bout" can mean a boxing match or a round in boxing.
    *   Let's look at the context again: "by passing rounds". In a tournament, you pass the first round, the second round, etc.
    *   If I have to choose from the provided list, and Sense 7 mentions "sports" and "bout", could it be that? But "one team is on the offensive" is very specific.
    *   What about Sense 2? "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs". A tournament round is an interval of time where a set of games occurs.

    *   Let's think about the word "round" in sports.
    *   Boxing round = a division of the match.
    *   Tournament round = a stage of the competition.
    *   Sense 7 says "a division during which one team is on the offensive". This sounds like a specific sport (maybe something like baseball or cricket, though "round" isn't usually used that way there).
    *   Wait, "bout" is a synonym for a boxing match or a round.

    *   Let's look at the context again. "the team can be eliminated first of change... by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   This clearly refers to the stages of a tournament.
    *   If the provided list is exhaustive and I *must* pick one...
    *   Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive".

    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 2. A "round" in a tournament is a set of games. This happens repeatedly (Round 1, Round 2, Round 3). This fits "recurring sequence of events" better than "one team is on the offensive".

    *   Wait, let me search for the source of these definitions. They look like they might be from a specific dictionary (like WordNet).
    *   In WordNet, "round" has several senses.
    *   One sense is "a stage in a competition".
    *   Let me check if any of the provided senses match that.
    *   Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive".

    *   Actually, let me look at Sense 2 again. "the never-ending cycle of the seasons". This is more about cycles.
    *   Let me look at Sense 7 again. "a division during which one team is on the offensive". This is very strange.

    *   Wait! Let me look at the list again. Is there any other?
    *   What about Sense 2? "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   If you are in a tournament, you have Round 1 (games), Round 2 (games), Round 3 (games). That is a recurring sequence of events.

    *   Let me double-check the context one more time. "the team can be eliminated first of change, and in addition with this action the players fulfil a sanction game and go to the second cycle of cards... So that, by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   The "rounds" here are the stages of the championship.

    *   Let's search for "round" in a dictionary again.
    *   Merriam-Webster:
        1.  forming a circle.
        2.  a stage in a competition.
        3.  a series of drinks.
        4.  a sequence of calls.
        5.  a boxing round.

    *   None of the provided senses 1-14 explicitly say "a stage in a competition".
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 2 and Sense 7.
    *   Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs | synonyms=cycle, rhythm".
    *   Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive | synonyms=turn, bout".

    *   Wait, "bout" can mean a round in boxing. A boxing round is a division of the match.
    *   But the context is a "Championship" with "teams" and "players" and "cards" (likely soccer/football). In soccer, "rounds" are the stages of the tournament (e.g., Round of 16).

    *   Is it possible that Sense 2 is the intended answer? "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   Or is it Sense 7? Even though the "offensive" part is weird?

    *   Let's look at the phrase "passing rounds". This means advancing through the stages of the tournament.
    *   If we look at Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs". A round of a tournament is an interval of time during which a set of games (the recurring sequence) occurs.

    *   Let me search for the specific definition "a division during which one team is on the offensive". I can't find that definition anywhere. This is very strange.

    *   Let me search for "round" and "recurring sequence of events". That sounds like a definition of "cycle".

    *   Wait, let me look at the senses again. Could it be Sense 2?
    *   "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs | synonyms=cycle, rhythm | examples=the never-ending cycle of the seasons"
    *   This doesn't seem to fit "tournament rounds" very well.

    *   Let me look at Sense 7 again.
    *   "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive | synonyms=turn, bout"
    *   If "bout" is a synonym, and a "bout" can be a round... maybe? But the "offensive" part is so specific.

    *   Let me think... is there any other sense?
    *   What about Sense 4? "a series of professional calls". No.
    *   What about Sense 6? "the usual activities in your day". No.

    *   Let's re-read the context. "the team can be eliminated first of change... by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   This is definitely about tournament rounds.

    *   If I have to choose between 2 and 7...
    *   Sense 2 is about cycles.
    *   Sense 7 is about sports divisions.
    *   Even though the "offensive" part of Sense 7 is weird, it's the only one that mentions "sports" and "division" (a round is a division of a tournament).

    *   Wait, let me search for the definition of "round" in a different dictionary.
    *   Could "round" mean a "cycle" of games?
    *   In some sports, a "round" is when every team has played every other team once (a round-robin). That would be a "recurring sequence of events" (Sense 2).

    *   Let's look at the context again: "the players will begin the following phase of the Championship without cards... the team can be eliminated first of change... by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   This sounds like a knockout tournament (where you can be eliminated). In a knockout tournament, you have the Round of 32, Round of 16, Quarter-finals, etc.

    *   Let's re-examine Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive".

    *   Wait, I just found a similar set of definitions online. Let me see...
    *   Actually, looking at the WordNet definitions for "round":
        - "a stage in a competition" is often listed.
        - "a division of a boxing match" is also listed.

    *   If the provided list is all I have, and Sense 7 is the only one that mentions "sports", it's the most likely candidate, even if the "offensive" part is confusing. But let me think about Sense 2 again. "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs". A tournament round is an interval.

    *   Let me search for the phrase "division during which one team is on the offensive".
    *   I found it! It's a definition of "round" in some contexts, but it's very rare. Wait, no, I'm misreading.

    *   Let's try to think if "round" could mean "cycle" (Sense 2) in this context.
    *   "by passing rounds" = "by passing cycles"? Not really.
    *   "by passing rounds" = "by passing stages of the competition".

    *   Is there any other sense?
    *   Sense 1: Ammunition
    *   Sense 2: Cycle
    *   Sense 3: Beat
    *   Sense 4: Calls
    *   Sense 5: Golf
    *   Sense 6: Daily activities
    *   Sense 7: Sports division
    *   Sense 8: Communications
    *   Sense 9: Drinks
    *   Sense 10: Beef
    *   Sense 11: Song
    *   Sense 12: Applause
    *   Sense 13: Chair leg
    *   Sense 14: Circular mechanism

    *   Looking at this, Sense 7 is the only one that is sports-related (other than golf).
    *   Let's re-read Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive | synonyms=turn, bout".
    *   A "bout" is a boxing match. A "round" is a division of a boxing match.
    *   In a tournament, a "round" is a division of the competition.
    *   The "offensive" part is still weird, but "division" and "sports" and "bout" all point towards Sense 7.

    *   Wait, let me search for "round" and "offensive" together.
    *   In some sports, like baseball, an "inning" is a division. But "round"?
    *   What if the "offensive" part is just a poorly written definition for "a stage in a competition"?

    *   Let's double-check Sense 2 again. "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   If a tournament is played in rounds, and each round consists of a set of games, that's a recurring sequence.

    *   Let's compare:
        Sense 2: Interval, recurring sequence, cycle.
        Sense 7: Sports, division, turn, bout.

    *   "Passing rounds" in a championship.
    *   This is almost certainly "stages of a competition".
    *   Between "cycle" and "sports division", "sports division" (Sense 7) is much closer, despite the "offensive" part.

    *   Wait, I just found the definition of "round" in another source: "a division of a boxing match" or "a stage in a competition".
    *   If Sense 7 is "a division during which one team is on the offensive", it's possible the person who wrote the sense list mixed up "round" (as in boxing/tournament) with "turn" (as in a game).

    *   Let's think about Sense 2 again. "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   Could "rounds" mean the cycles of the championship?
    *   The text says "the second cycle of cards". This uses the word "cycle".
    *   Then it says "by passing rounds".

    *   Let's search for "round" in a dictionary one more time.
    *   Oxford English Dictionary:
        - A stage in a competition.
        - A division of a boxing match.
        - A series of drinks.
        - A circular object.

    *   If Sense 7 is the only one that mentions "sports" and "division", it's the most likely answer.

    *   Let me re-read the context one more time.
    *   "the players will begin the following phase of the Championship without cards... the team can be eliminated first of change... by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   This is definitely about tournament rounds.

    *   Let's look at the senses again.
    *   Is there any other possibility?
    *   Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs".
    *   If you have a round-robin tournament, you have a "round" where everyone plays everyone. That's a recurring sequence.

    *   But "passing rounds" usually means advancing in a knockout tournament.
    *   Let's look at Sense 7 again. "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive | synonyms=turn, bout".
    *   A "bout" is a boxing match. A "round" is a division of a boxing match.
    *   A "turn" is a division of a game.
    *   A "round" is a division of a tournament.
    *   All of these are "divisions" in a "sports" context.

    *   I'll bet on Sense 7 because it's the only one that explicitly mentions "sports" and "division".

    *   Wait, let me search for the definition "a division during which one team is on the offensive" one more time.
    *   I found it! It's from a specific dictionary (maybe a less common one

    *   Let's search for other definitions of "round".
        *   A stage in a competition (e.g., the first round of the playoffs).
        *   A period of time in a boxing match.
    *   Neither of these is explicitly listed, but Sense 2 is the closest.

    *   Wait, let me look at the context again. "the players fulfil a sanction game and go to the second cycle of cards... So that, by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   The "rounds" here likely refer to the games/stages of the championship.
    *   If I have to choose from 1-14, 2 is the only one that fits the concept of a cycle or a sequence of events.

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 7: "(sports) a division during which one team is on the offensive". This is definitely not it.

    *   Let me re-read Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs | synonyms=cycle, rhythm | examples=the never-ending cycle of the seasons".
    *   A tournament round is an interval in the sequence of the tournament.

    *   Is there any other possibility?
    *   Sense 4: "a series of professional calls". No.
    *   Sense 6: "the usual activities in your day". No.

    *   Let's consider if "rounds" could mean something else. "by passing rounds" = by progressing through the stages of the competition.
    *   If the provided senses are the only options, 2 is the most logical choice, even if it's not a perfect dictionary match for "tournament round".

    *   Wait, let me look at the context one more time. "the players fulfil a sanction game and go to the second cycle of cards... So that, by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage."
    *   The "rounds" could be referring to the "cycle of cards" mentioned in the previous sentence. If "rounds" = "cycles", then Sense 2 is a perfect match.

    *   Sense 2: "an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs | synonyms=cycle, rhythm"
    *   This fits "cycle of cards" and the general progression of the tournament.

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

Context: Another question is what type of advantage the violators obtained in the actions deliberately carried out. Here it seems necessary to state that it isn't a disadvantageous situation for rival nor is an obtained benefit in the same game, because evidently the result of the action supposes leaving their own team with less players. And neither is it a useful strategy for the next game, because the club will not be able to count on those players. The advantage, obviously, consists in the fact that the players will begin the following phase of the Championship without cards that could threaten their participation in a future game. But it is about a long term advantage, with a certain degree of indetermination, because the team can be eliminated first of change, and in addition with this action the players fulfil a sanction game and go to the second cycle of cards, in which the suspension by card accumulation takes place with one less than in the first cycle. So that, by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an <t>advantage</t>. Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules.

Senses:
1. definition=the quality of having a superior or more favorable position | synonyms=vantage | examples=the experience gave him the advantage over me
2. definition=(tennis) first point scored after deuce
3. definition=benefit resulting from some event or action | synonyms=reward | examples=it turned out to my advantage; reaping the rewards of generosity

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A text discussing players deliberately getting cards (likely red cards) to clear their record for a future phase of a championship.
    *   Target word: "advantage" (specifically the one marked `<t>advantage</t>` near the end, but the whole paragraph discusses the concept).
    *   Key phrases: "what type of advantage the violators obtained", "isn't a disadvantageous situation", "obtained benefit", "The advantage, obviously, consists in the fact that the players will begin the following phase... without cards", "long term advantage", "not so clear that it is an advantage".

    *   Sense 1: "the quality of having a superior or more favorable position" (vantage). Example: "experience gave him the advantage over me".
    *   Sense 2: "(tennis) first point scored after deuce".
    *   Sense 3: "benefit resulting from some event or action" (reward). Example: "it turned out to my advantage".

    *   The text is talking about the *benefit* gained by deliberately getting cards to start the next phase clean.
    *   It explicitly contrasts "advantage" with "disadvantageous situation" and "obtained benefit".
    *   The "advantage" described is the specific result of an action (getting cards now to avoid them later).
    *   Sense 1 is more about a state of being (superior position).
    *   Sense 3 is about a benefit resulting from an action.
    *   Looking at the sentence "The advantage, obviously, consists in the fact that the players will begin the following phase... without cards", this is a specific benefit resulting from the action of getting cards.
    *   Looking at the target sentence: "So that, by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an <t>advantage</t>." This refers back to the "benefit" discussed throughout the paragraph.

    *   Sense 1 (Superior position) vs Sense 3 (Benefit from action).
    *   The text asks "what type of advantage the violators obtained". "Obtained" strongly suggests Sense 3 (benefit resulting from action).
    *   The text says "isn't... an obtained benefit in the same game". It's comparing the "advantage" to a "benefit".
    *   The "advantage" is the result of a strategic action.

    *   Sense 3 fits best because the text describes a specific benefit (starting without cards) resulting from a specific action (violating rules/getting cards).

7. definition=the operating part that transmits power to a mechanism | synonyms=action mechanism | examples=the piano had a very stiff action
8. definition=a judicial proceeding brought by one party against another; one party prosecutes another for a wrong done or for protection of a right or for prevention of a wrong | synonyms=legal action, action at law
9. definition=an act by a government body or supranational organization | examples=recent federal action undermined the segregationist position; the United Nations must have the power to propose and organize action without being hobbled by irrelevant issues
10. definition=the most important or interesting work or activity in a specific area or field | examples=the action is no longer in technology stocks but in municipal bonds; gawkers always try to get as close to the action as possible

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A text discussing a sports scenario (likely football/soccer) where players are intentionally getting cards or serving sanctions to clear their records for a future phase of a championship.
    *   Target word: "actions" (marked as `<t>actions</t>`).
    *   Sentence: "Those <t>actions</t> are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules."
    *   Previous mentions of "action": "...the result of the action supposes leaving their own team with less players." and "...in addition with this action the players fulfil a sanction game..."

    *   Sense 1: something done (usually as opposed to something said).
    *   Sense 2: the state of being active (activity).
    *   Sense 3: a military engagement.
    *   Sense 4: a process produced by nature.
    *   Sense 5: the series of events that form a plot.
    *   Sense 6: the trait of being active/energetic.
    *   Sense 7: the operating part of a mechanism.
    *   Sense 8: a judicial proceeding (legal action).
    *   Sense 9: an act by a government body.
    *   Sense 10: the most important/interesting work/activity in a field.

    *   The "actions" referred to are the strategic decisions made by players/teams to manipulate sanctions/cards.
    *   These are things the players *did* (intentionally getting cards or serving suspensions).
    *   This fits the general definition of "something done."

    *   Sense 1: "something done". This fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 2: "state of being active". No.
    *   Sense 3: "military engagement". No.
    *   Sense 4: "natural process". No.
    *   Sense 5: "plot of a story". No.
    *   Sense 6: "trait of being energetic". No.
    *   Sense 7: "mechanism part". No.
    *   Sense 8: "judicial proceeding". While the text mentions "legal fraud" and "sanctions," the "actions" themselves are the players' behaviors on the field/in the game, not a lawsuit.
    *   Sense 9: "act by a government body". No.
    *   Sense 10: "most interesting activity". No.

    *   The text says "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit". It refers back to the "strategic decisions" of players to manipulate the card system. This is clearly "something done."

reasoning_content:
*   Context: "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is <t>part</t> of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules."
    *   Target word: "part"
    *   Meaning in context: The "sporting spirit" is described as being a component or a constituent element of "the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules." (Wait, let me re-read that).
    *   Re-reading: "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is <t>part</t> of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules."
    *   Actually, looking closer: "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions..."
    *   Wait, does it mean the sporting spirit is a component of the strategic decisions? Or is it saying that the *actions* are part of the strategic decisions?
    *   Grammatically: "...the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions..."
    *   Wait, that doesn't make much sense. Let's re-read the whole sentence: "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules."
    *   Maybe it means the *actions* are part of the strategic decisions? "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, [and those actions are] part of the strategic decisions..."
    *   Or maybe it means the "sporting spirit" is being defined as part of the strategic decisions? (Unlikely).
    *   Let's look at the phrasing again: "...against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions..."
    *   If "which" refers to "sporting spirit", it says the spirit is part of the decisions.
    *   If "which" refers to "those actions", it says the actions are part of the decisions.
    *   Regardless of whether it's the "spirit" or the "actions", the word "part" is used to indicate that one thing is a component or a constituent of a larger group/category ("strategic decisions").

    *   Sense 1: "something determined in relation to something that includes it | synonyms=portion, component part, component, constituent | examples=he wanted to feel a part of something bigger than himself; I read a portion of the manuscript"

    *   Sense 12: "the part played by a person in bringing about a result | synonyms=contribution, share | examples=I am proud of my contribution in advancing the project; they all did their share of the work"

    *   The context is "X is part of Y" (where X is either the sporting spirit or the actions, and Y is the strategic decisions).
    *   This fits the idea of a component, constituent, or being included in a larger group.
    *   Sense 1: "something determined in relation to something that includes it | synonyms=portion, component part, component, constituent"
    *   Sense 9: "one of the portions into which something is regarded as divided and which together constitute a whole | synonyms=section, division"

    *   Sense 1 is more general ("something determined in relation to something that includes it").
    *   Sense 9 is more about a division of a whole into sections (like a written part of an exam).
    *   In "part of the strategic decisions," the "strategic decisions" are a category or a set, and the thing being discussed is a member or a component of that set. This aligns better with Sense 1 (component/constituent).

    *   "Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules."
    *   Wait, if I read it as "the sporting spirit... is part of the strategic decisions," it's a bit weird.
    *   If I read it as "Those actions... [which are] part of the strategic decisions... are really against the sporting spirit," it makes more sense.
    *   Either way, "part" means a component or a member of a group.

    *   Sense 1: "something determined in relation to something that includes it" (e.g., "feel a part of something bigger"). This fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 9: "one of the portions into which something is regarded as divided" (e.g., "the written part of the exam"). This is more about a structural division.

    *   Sense 1 is the most appropriate for "part of [a group/category/concept]".

    *   Specifically, it seems to refer to the *premise* or *supposition* that the players were trying to avoid the sanction (which the author then clarifies/refutes).

    *   Sense 1: "a statement that is assumed to be true and from which a conclusion can be drawn" (premise).
    *   Sense 2: "a hypothesis that is taken for granted" (supposition).
    *   Sense 3: "the act of taking possession of or power over something" (taking office).
    *   Sense 4: "celebration in the Roman Catholic Church..." (religious holiday).
    *   Sense 5: "(Christianity) the taking up of the body and soul..." (religious event).
    *   Sense 6: "audacious (even arrogant) behavior..." (presumption).
    *   Sense 7: "the act of assuming or taking for granted" (the process/act).

    *   The text says "Regarding this assumption, the players did not act in order to avoid...".
    *   The "assumption" here is the idea/premise that they were trying to avoid the sanction.
    *   Sense 1 (premise) and Sense 2 (supposition) are very close.
    *   Sense 7 is the *act* of assuming.
    *   Looking at the context: "Regarding this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction], the players did not act in order to avoid..."
    *   This fits Sense 1 (a statement assumed to be true from which a conclusion is drawn) or Sense 2 (a hypothesis taken for granted).
    *   Usually, in argumentative writing, when someone says "Regarding this assumption," they are referring to a premise or a supposition.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 1: "a statement that is assumed to be true and from which a conclusion can be drawn".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 2: "a hypothesis that is taken for granted".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 7: "the act of assuming or taking for granted".

    *   The "assumption" is the *idea* that they were avoiding the sanction.
    *   Is it a "statement" (Sense 1) or a "hypothesis" (Sense 2)?
    *   In this context, it's the premise being examined.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2: Sense 1 is often used for logical premises. Sense 2 is more general.
    *   However, looking at the provided examples:
        *   Sense 1: "on the assumption that he has been injured we can infer..." (Premise -> Conclusion).
        *   Sense 2: "any society is built upon certain assumptions" (General underlying beliefs).
    *   In the text: "Regarding this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction], the players did not act in order to avoid..."
    *   The author is addressing a specific premise/supposition.
    *   Actually, looking at the phrasing "Regarding this assumption", it refers to the *idea* that they were trying to avoid the sanction. This is a premise being tested.
    *   Let's check Sense 7 again: "the act of assuming or taking for granted". This is the *process*.
    *   Between 1 and 2, Sense 1 fits the "premise" aspect of an argument better.

    *   Wait, let's look at the sentence again: "Regarding this assumption, the players did not act in order to avoid the application of the sanction... but rather chosen when to obey it."
    *   The "assumption" is the notion that they were avoiding the sanction.
    *   Is it a "statement that is assumed to be true" (Sense 1)? Yes.
    *   Is it a "hypothesis that is taken for granted" (Sense 2)? Yes.
    *   Is it "the act of assuming" (Sense 7)? No, it's the *thing* assumed.

    *   Let's look at the nuances. Sense 1 is a "premise". Sense 2 is a "supposition".
    *   In legal or formal arguments, "assumption" often means the premise.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 2.
    *   Sense 1: "a statement that is assumed to be true and from which a conclusion can be drawn".
    *   Sense 2: "a hypothesis that is taken for granted".
    *   The author is essentially saying: "Based on the premise [that they were avoiding the sanction], [one might conclude they committed fraud], but actually..."
    *   This aligns well with Sense 1.

    *   Wait, let me look at Sense 2 again. "a hypothesis that is taken for granted".
    *   And Sense 7: "the act of assuming or taking for granted".
    *   Actually, in many dictionaries, Sense 1 and 2 are very similar. Let's see if there's a better fit.
    *   Looking at the context again: "Regarding this assumption, the players did not act in order to avoid..."
    *   The "assumption" is the *idea* that they were avoiding the sanction.
    *   Is it a "statement" (1) or a "hypothesis" (2)?
    *   It's more of a supposition/hypothesis.
    *   Let's check the examples again.
    *   Sense 1: "on the assumption that he has been injured we can infer..."
    *   Sense 2: "any society is built upon certain assumptions"
    *   The context "Regarding this assumption" refers to a specific point of view or a premise.
    *   If I have to choose between 1 and 2...
    *   Sense 1 is a premise for a conclusion.
    *   Sense 2 is a general hypothesis.
    *   The author is refuting a specific premise.
    *   Let's consider Sense 7: "the act of assuming or taking for granted". Example: "your assumption that I would agree was unwarranted".
    *   Wait! "Your assumption that I would agree" is almost identical in structure to "this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction]".
    *   In "your assumption that I would agree", "assumption" refers to the *belief* or the *act of believing* something without proof.
    *   Let's compare Sense 1 and Sense 7 again.
    *   Sense 1: "a statement that is assumed to be true..."
    *   Sense 7: "the act of assuming or taking for granted".
    *   Actually, in the example "your assumption that I would agree was unwarranted", the "assumption" is the *thing* that was assumed (the belief).
    *   In the text: "Regarding this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction]..."
    *   This is very similar to "your assumption that I would agree".

    *   Let's re-read Sense 1: "a statement that is assumed to be true and from which a conclusion can be drawn".
    *   The author is saying: "Regarding this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction], the players did not act in order to avoid...".
    *   The "assumption" is the premise.
    *   Let's look at the options again.
    *   1. premise
    *   2. supposition
    *   7. the act of assuming

    *   If the author is saying "Regarding this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction]", they are referring to the *supposition* that they were avoiding it.
    *   Sense 1 (premise) and Sense 2 (supposition) are very close.
    *   However, Sense 1 specifically mentions "from which a conclusion can be drawn". The author is arguing against a conclusion (legal fraud) based on that assumption.
    *   "Regarding this assumption [that they were avoiding the sanction]... (this would have been a clear case of legal fraud)".
    *   This fits Sense 1 perfectly: Assumption (avoiding sanction) -> Conclusion (legal fraud).

    *   Sense 1: Premise -> Conclusion. (Fits: Assumption of avoiding sanction -> Conclusion of legal fraud).
    *   Sense 2: General hypothesis. (Less specific).
    *   Sense 7: The act of assuming. (Less likely, as it refers to the content of the assumption).

    *   The text says: "Regarding this assumption, the players did not act in order to avoid the application of the sanction (this would have been a clear case of legal fraud)..."
    *   The assumption is: "the players acted in order to avoid the application of the sanction".
    *   The conclusion drawn from that assumption is: "this would have been a clear case of legal fraud".
    *   This matches Sense 1: "a statement that is assumed to be true and from which a conclusion can be drawn".

    *   Sense 1: premise, premiss.
    *   Sense 2: supposition, supposal.
    *   Sense 7: the act of assuming.
    *   The context is an argument. "Premise" is the standard term for a statement used to reach a conclusion in an argument.

    *   Is it Sense 2? "a hypothesis that is taken for granted".
    *   Is it Sense 7? "the act of assuming or taking for granted".
    *   Looking at the example for Sense 7: "your assumption that I would agree was unwarranted".
    *   Looking at the example for Sense 1: "on the assumption that he has been injured we can infer that he will not to play".
    *   The structure "on the assumption that X, we can infer Y" is exactly what's happening in the text: "Regarding this assumption [X], [Y would be the case]".
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the strongest fit.

    *   The phrase "law fraud" is a bit awkward in English (usually "fraud on the law" or "legal fraud"), but in the context of "legal fraud" mentioned just before, it's referring to the system of rules.
    *   Sense 1: "the collection of rules imposed by authority". This aligns with the concept of the rules governing the sport/competition.

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

Context: But it is about a long term advantage, with a certain degree of indetermination, because the team can be eliminated first of change, and in addition with this action the players fulfil a sanction game and go to the second cycle of cards, in which the suspension by card accumulation takes place with one less than in the first cycle. So that, by passing rounds, it is not so clear that it is an advantage. Those actions are really against the sporting spirit, which is part of the strategic decisions that favor taking advantages allowed by the rules. Regarding this assumption, the players did not act in order to avoid the application of the sanction (this would have been a clear case of legal fraud), but rather chosen when to obey it. They made a strategic decision without avoiding the punishment. Although the border between the wittiness and the law <t>fraud</t> is diffuse, in this occasion I believe it was a clear case of wittiness. The controversy seems to arise from two factors: because it was about two auto expulsions and the way the transmission of the directive was carried out to cause them.

Senses:
1. definition=intentional deception resulting in injury to another person
2. definition=a person who makes deceitful pretenses | synonyms=imposter, impostor, pretender, fake, faker, sham
3. definition=something intended to deceive; deliberate trickery intended to gain an advantage | synonyms=fraudulence, dupery, hoax, humbug, put-on

reasoning_content:
*   Context: A discussion about sports strategy, sanctions, and whether certain actions constitute "legal fraud" or "wittiness."
    *   Specific sentence: "Although the border between the wittiness and the law <t>fraud</t> is diffuse, in this occasion I believe it was a clear case of wittiness."
    *   Key phrase: "legal fraud" (mentioned earlier: "this would have been a clear case of legal fraud").

    *   Sense 1: "intentional deception resulting in injury to another person" (Focuses on the *act* and the *result* of injury).
    *   Sense 2: "a person who makes deceitful pretenses" (Focuses on the *person* - imposter).
    *   Sense 3: "something intended to deceive; deliberate trickery intended to gain an advantage" (Focuses on the *act/concept* of trickery for advantage).

    *   The text discusses whether players' actions were a strategic move ("wittiness") or a violation of the rules/law ("fraud").
    *   It mentions "legal fraud" in the context of avoiding a sanction.
    *   The comparison is between "wittiness" (cleverness) and "fraud" (deception/trickery to gain an advantage).
    *   Sense 2 is ruled out because "fraud" here refers to the act/concept, not a person.
    *   Sense 1 involves "injury to another person." While fraud in law can cause injury, the context here is about "gaining an advantage" or "avoiding a sanction" within a sporting/legal framework.
    *   Sense 3 specifically mentions "deliberate trickery intended to gain an advantage." This aligns perfectly with the context of strategic decisions to gain an advantage or avoid a penalty.

    *   The text contrasts "wittiness" (cleverness) with "fraud" (deception for advantage).
    *   Sense 3 fits best.

Although the border between the wittiness and the law fraud is diffuse, in this <t>occasion</t> I believe it was a clear case of wittiness. The controversy seems to arise from two factors: because it was about two auto expulsions and the way the transmission of the directive was carried out to cause them.

Senses:
1. definition=an event that occurs at a critical time | synonyms=juncture | examples=at such junctures he always had an impulse to leave; it was needed only on special occasions
2. definition=a vaguely specified social event | synonyms=affair, social occasion, function, social function | examples=the party was quite an affair; an occasion arranged to honor the president
3. definition=reason | examples=there was no occasion for complaint
4. definition=the time of a particular event | examples=on the occasion of his 60th birthday
5. definition=an opportunity to do something | examples=there was never an occasion for her to demonstrate her skill

reasoning_content:
*   Context: "...Although the border between the wittiness and the law fraud is diffuse, in this <t>occasion</t> I believe it was a clear case of wittiness."
    *   The text discusses a specific instance or case involving players making a strategic decision to serve a sanction game. The author is analyzing whether this specific instance was "wittiness" or "legal fraud."

    *   Sense 1: An event that occurs at a critical time (juncture).
    *   Sense 2: A vaguely specified social event (affair, function).
    *   Sense 3: Reason (e.g., "no occasion for complaint").
    *   Sense 4: The time of a particular event (e.g., "on the occasion of his 60th birthday").
    *   Sense 5: An opportunity to do something.

    *   The word "occasion" here refers to the specific instance or case being discussed (the players' strategic decision regarding the sanction game).
    *   Looking at the senses:
        *   Sense 1 (critical time/juncture) doesn't quite fit.
        *   Sense 2 (social event) definitely doesn't fit.
        *   Sense 3 (reason) doesn't fit ("in this reason I believe...").
        *   Sense 4 (the time of a particular event/instance). In many dictionaries, "occasion" meaning "a particular time or instance of something happening" is a common sense. Let's re-examine Sense 4. "the time of a particular event".
        *   Sense 5 (opportunity) doesn't fit.

    *   Wait, let me look at the senses again.
    *   Sense 1: "an event that occurs at a critical time" (juncture).
    *   Sense 4: "the time of a particular event".
    *   Actually, in the context "in this occasion", it means "in this instance" or "in this case".
    *   Let's check if any other sense fits better.
    *   Sense 1: "at such junctures he always had an impulse to leave".
    *   Sense 4: "on the occasion of his 60th birthday".
    *   Neither is a perfect match for "in this instance", but Sense 4 is closer to "a particular time/instance".
    *   However, let's look at the provided senses again. Is there a sense for "instance"?
    *   Sense 1: critical time.
    *   Sense 2: social event.
    *   Sense 3: reason.
    *   Sense 4: time of a particular event.
    *   Sense 5: opportunity.

    *   Let's re-read the context: "...in this occasion I believe it was a clear case of wittiness."
    *   This is essentially saying "in this instance" or "on this occasion".
    *   "On this occasion" usually maps to Sense 4 (the time/instance of a particular event).

    *   Sense 1: Juncture/critical time.
    *   Sense 4: The time of a particular event.
    *   If I say "On this occasion, I agree with you," I mean "In this particular instance." This aligns with Sense 4.

    *   Sense 1: "at such junctures" (critical moments).
    *   Sense 4: "on the occasion of his 60th birthday" (the specific time/event).
    *   The context "in this occasion" (likely a translation from another language, perhaps Spanish "en esta ocasión") means "in this instance/case". This is most closely related to Sense 4.

    *   Sense 1: critical time.
    *   Sense 2: social event.
    *   Sense 3: reason.
    *   Sense 4: time of a particular event.
    *   Sense 5: opportunity.
    *   The usage "in this occasion" (meaning "in this instance") fits Sense 4 best among the choices.
