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

Context: "The justices were wining and dining at a black-tie fundraiser with attorneys who have pending cases before the court." Their appearance and assistance in fundraising for this event undercuts any claims of impartiality, and is unacceptable. Scalia and Thomas have shown little regard for critics who say they too readily mix the business of the court with agenda-driven groups such as the Federalist Society. And Thomas" wife, Ginni, is a high-profile conservative activist. Moreover, conservatives argue that it's Justice Elena Kagan who has an ethical issue, not Scalia and Thomas. Kagan served as solicitor general in the Obama administration when the first legal challenges to the law were brought at the trial court <t>level</t>. Her critics have pushed for Kagan to recuse herself from hearing the case, saying that she was too invested in defending the law then to be impartial now.

reasoning_content:
*   Context: "...when the first legal challenges to the law were brought at the trial court <t>level</t>."
    *   Target word: "level"
    *   Contextual meaning: Refers to the "trial court level" in a legal system (hierarchy of courts: trial court $\rightarrow$ appellate court $\rightarrow$ supreme court).

    *   Sense 1: Position on a scale of intensity/amount/quality (degree, grade). (e.g., high level of care). -> *Doesn't fit.*
    *   Sense 2: Relative position or degree of value in a graded group (grade, tier). (e.g., lumber of the highest grade). -> *Possible, but usually refers to quality/value.*
    *   Sense 3: Specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process (degree, stage, point). (e.g., at what stage are the social sciences?). -> *Strong candidate. A trial court is a stage/point in the legal process.*
    *   Sense 4: Height above ground. -> *Doesn't fit.*
    *   Sense 5: Tool for horizontal alignment. -> *Doesn't fit.*
    *   Sense 6: Flat surface. -> *Doesn't fit.*
    *   Sense 7: Abstract place conceived as having depth (layer, stratum). (e.g., communicates on several levels). -> *Possible, but "trial court level" is more about a step in a process/hierarchy.*
    *   Sense 8: Floor/storey of a building. -> *Doesn't fit.*

    *   "Trial court level" refers to the first stage of the judicial process.
    *   Sense 3: "a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process | synonyms=degree, stage, point".
    *   Sense 2: "a relative position or degree of value in a graded group | synonyms=grade, tier".
    *   Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 3: The legal system is a hierarchy (graded group), but the "trial court level" is specifically the first *stage* or *point* in the legal process of a case.
    *   Let's look at Sense 3 again: "especially in a process". The legal process starts at the trial court level.
    *   Let's look at Sense 2 again: "relative position or degree of value". Trial courts aren't necessarily "lower value" than appellate courts, but they are at a different position in the hierarchy.
    *   Wait, let's re-evaluate Sense 3's examples: "a remarkable degree of frankness; at what stage are the social sciences?".
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 2's examples: "lumber of the highest grade".
    *   Actually, looking at common dictionary definitions for "level" in "trial court level", it often refers to a tier or stage.
    *   Let's check Sense 3 again: "specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process". This fits "trial court level" perfectly because the legal process moves from trial $\rightarrow$ appeal $\rightarrow$ supreme court.

    *   Sense 1: Intensity/Amount (No)
    *   Sense 2: Value/Grade (No)
    *   Sense 3: Position in a series/process (Yes)
    *   Sense 4: Height (No)
    *   Sense 5: Tool (No)
    *   Sense 6: Flat surface (No)
    *   Sense 7: Abstract layer (No)
    *   Sense 8: Floor (No)

    *   "Trial court level" = the stage in the legal process where the trial occurs.
    *   Sense 3: "a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process".

    *Self-Correction:* Could it be Sense 2 (tier)? "Relative position... in a graded group". A court system is a graded group. However, "especially in a process" in Sense 3 is a very strong match for the legal progression of a case.

    Let's double-check Sense 3's synonyms: "degree, stage, point".
    "Trial court stage" or "Trial court point" makes sense.

    Let's double-check Sense 2's synonyms: "grade, tier".
    "Trial court tier" also makes sense.

    However, "trial court level" usually refers to the *stage* of the litigation.

    Let's look at the provided examples for Sense 3: "at what stage are the social sciences?". This is about the development/process of the sciences.
    Let's look at the provided examples for Sense 2: "lumber of the highest grade". This is about quality.

    Comparing "stage in a process" (Sense 3) vs "grade/tier in a group" (Sense 2).
    The legal system is a hierarchy (graded group), but the context "brought at the trial court level" refers to the point in the legal process where the challenge was first filed.

    Wait, let me look at Sense 3 again. "a remarkable degree of frankness" (this sounds like Sense 1). "at what stage are the social sciences?".
    Let me look at Sense 2 again. "a relative position or degree of value in a graded group".

    Actually, looking at the options again, Sense 3 seems the most appropriate for a "level" that represents a step in a process.

    *Wait*, let me re-read Sense 3: "a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process".
    Trial court $\rightarrow$ Appellate court $\rightarrow$ Supreme court. This is a series/process.

    Let's check Sense 2 again: "a relative position or degree of value in a graded group".
    Trial court is a relative position in the graded group of courts.

    Which is better? "Process" (Sense 3) or "Graded group" (Sense 2)?
    Usually, "trial court level" refers to the *tier* of the court system.
    But the phrase "brought at the trial court level" emphasizes the *stage* of the legal proceedings.

    Let's look at Sense 3's example "a remarkable degree of frankness". That's weird. "Degree" is usually Sense 1.
    Let's look at Sense 1: "a position on a scale of intensity or amount or quality | synonyms=degree, grade".
    If "degree of frankness" is in Sense 3, then the definitions provided in the prompt might be slightly shifted or grouped differently than I expect.

    Let's re-examine Sense 3: "a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process | synonyms=degree, stage, point".
    "Trial court level" = "Trial court stage". This fits perfectly.

    Let's re-examine Sense 2: "a relative position or degree of value in a graded group | synonyms=grade, tier".
    "Trial court level" = "Trial court tier". This also fits.

    However, "especially in a process" in Sense 3 is a very strong pointer for legal levels (trial, appeal, etc.).

    Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 1: "moderate grade of intelligence", "high level of care". (Intensity/Amount)
    Sense 2: "lumber of the highest grade". (Quality/Value)
    Sense 3: "remarkable degree of frankness", "at what stage are the social sciences?". (Position in a series/process)

    "Trial court level" is a position in the series of courts a case goes through.

    Final check:
    Sense 3: "specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process".
    This fits "trial court level" best.

*   Context: "Spanish football players playing in the All-Star League and in powerful clubs of the Premier League of England are during the <t>year</t> very active in league and local cup competitions..."
    *   Target word: "year"
    *   Senses:
        1.  365/366 days (general time period).
        2.  A regular part of a calendar year for a particular activity (e.g., school year, football season).
        3.  Planetary revolution.
        4.  Graduating class.

    *   The sentence discusses football players being active in league and cup competitions "during the year".
    *   In the context of sports, "the year" often refers to the competitive season or the annual cycle of competitions.
    *   Let's look at Sense 1 vs. Sense 2.
        *   Sense 1: A general period of 365 days.
        *   Sense 2: A period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year used for some particular activity (like a school year or a sports season).
    *   The phrase "during the year" in this context refers to the period when the leagues and cups are active. This fits the description of a period used for a particular activity (football competitions).

    *   Sense 1: "during the year" could just mean "throughout the 365 days".
    *   Sense 2: "during the year" refers to the specific sports calendar/season.
    *   Usually, when talking about sports schedules, "the year" refers to the competitive cycle (the football year/season).
    *   However, looking at the phrasing "during the year very active in league and local cup competitions", it implies the duration of their professional activity cycle.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 2: "a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 1: "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days".
    *   In many contexts, "during the year" is used generically (Sense 1). But in the context of a sports season, it often aligns with Sense 2.
    *   Wait, "during the year" here likely means "throughout the course of the year" (Sense 1) or "during the football year" (Sense 2).
    *   Let's compare: "The school year" (Sense 2) vs "In the year 1920" (Sense 1).
    *   "During the year" in "during the year very active in league and local cup competitions" suggests the annual cycle of the sport.
    *   Actually, looking at the options again, Sense 2 specifically mentions "a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity". A football season is exactly that.

    *   Is it just a general 365-day period? Or is it the "football year"?
    *   "Spanish football players... are during the year very active..."
    *   If I say "I exercise during the year", I usually mean throughout the 12 months.
    *   If I say "The school year is long", I mean the academic period.
    *   In this text, it's describing the workload of the players. They are active throughout the year (meaning the sports calendar).
    *   Usually, in these NLP tasks (like WordNet-based sense disambiguation), "the year" in a sports context referring to the season is Sense 2.
    *   However, "during the year" is a very common idiom for "throughout the year" (Sense 1).
    *   Let's look at the phrasing again: "are during the year very active in league and local cup competitions". This sounds like a translation from another language (likely Spanish, given the context of Spain and Costa Rica). In Spanish, "durante el año" often means "throughout the year".
    *   If it means "throughout the year", it's Sense 1.
    *   If it means "during the [football] year", it's Sense 2.
    *   Comparing "school year" (Sense 2) to "during the year", "school year" is a compound noun. "During the year" is a prepositional phrase.
    *   Sense 2 examples: "a school year".
    *   Sense 1 examples: "she is 4 years old; in the year 1920".
    *   "During the year" fits Sense 1 (the 12-month period) better than Sense 2 (a specific sub-period like a school year), unless "year" is being used as a shorthand for "football year".
    *   But "during the year" usually means "throughout the 365 days".

    *   Sense 1: 365 days.
    *   Sense 2: A part of the year for a specific activity.
    *   If the players are active in leagues and cups, they are active for a large portion of the calendar year.
    *   Let's think about "the year" in "during the year". It most naturally refers to the annual cycle.
    *   Is a "football year" a "regular part of a calendar year"? Yes.
    *   Is "during the year" referring to that specific period or just the general 365 days?
    *   Usually, "during the year" = "throughout the year" = Sense 1.

    *   "Spanish football players... are during the year very active..."
    *   This is likely a translation of "durante el año".
    *   In English, "during the year" almost always refers to the calendar year (Sense 1).
    *   Sense 2 is usually used for specific terms like "academic year", "fiscal year", "tax year".
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the most probable.

    *   Sense 1: 365 days.
    *   Sense 2: School year, etc.
    *   Sense 3: Planetary.
    *   Sense 4: Graduating class.
    *   The context is about the activity level of players over the course of a year. This is a duration of time. Sense 1 fits best.

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

Context: A minor contrast to Costa Rica, comparing the 22 players called by both countries for the friendly game today, at 3:05 pm at the National Stadium in San Jose. While the Europe and world champions, number one one in the monthly top of FIFA, have a long record of Class A inter selection, the Tricolor has only the defender Michael Umana as the only one who has 50 international games. That number was reached Friday before the game against Panama (0-2), in Rommel Fernandez. Spanish football players playing in the All-Star League and in powerful clubs of the Premier League of England are during the year very active in league and local cup competitions and there are high-level shocks in the European Cups and European Champions League. To this is added the Spanish Fury experience in complicated qualifications for Euro Cup and World Cup. The Ticos players, however, have a limited international <t>experience</t> in an area such as CONCACAF, which is considered the lowest level within FIFA We see that the peak of the Spanish selection is the goalkeeper Iker Casillas, who last Saturday against England (game lost with 0-1 in London) equaled the record of the ex goalkeeper Andoni Zubizarreta, with 126 international matches.

Senses:
1. definition=the accumulation of knowledge or skill that results from direct participation in events or activities | examples=a man of experience; experience is the best teacher
2. definition=the content of direct observation or participation in an event | examples=he had a religious experience; he recalled the experience vividly
3. definition=an event as apprehended | examples=a surprising experience; that painful experience certainly got our attention

reasoning_content:
*   Context: "The Ticos players, however, have a limited international <t>experience</t> in an area such as CONCACAF..."
    *   Target word: "experience"
    *   Senses provided:
        1.  Accumulation of knowledge or skill from direct participation.
        2.  Content of direct observation or participation in an event.
        3.  An event as apprehended.

    *   The sentence compares the Spanish team's "experience in complicated qualifications" with the Ticos players' "limited international experience in an area such as CONCACAF."
    *   It's talking about the *amount* of playing time, the *number* of games, and the *familiarity* with high-level competition.
    *   This refers to the knowledge, skill, and familiarity gained over time through playing international matches.

    *   Sense 1: "the accumulation of knowledge or skill that results from direct participation in events or activities" -> This fits perfectly. The players have "limited" accumulation of knowledge/skill/exposure from playing in CONCACAF.
    *   Sense 2: "the content of direct observation or participation in an event" -> This refers to a specific instance or the feeling of an event (e.g., "a religious experience"). Not the case here.
    *   Sense 3: "an event as apprehended" -> This refers to a specific occurrence (e.g., "a surprising experience"). Not the case here.

    *   The context describes the players' lack of seasoned play/exposure. This is the "accumulation of knowledge or skill" (Sense 1).

reasoning_content:
*   Context: "...The Ticos players, however, have a limited international experience in an <t>area</t> such as CONCACAF, which is considered the lowest level within FIFA..."
    *   Target word: "area"
    *   Contextual clues: "CONCACAF" (Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football), "lowest level within FIFA", "international experience".

    *   Sense 1: a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography). Synonyms: country. Examples: mountainous area, Bible country.
    *   Sense 2: a subject of study. Examples: area of specialization.
    *   Sense 3: a part of an animal that has a special function. Synonyms: region.
    *   Sense 4: a particular environment or walk of life. Synonyms: sphere, domain, orbit, field, arena.
    *   Sense 5: a part of a structure having some specific characteristic or function.
    *   Sense 6: the extent of a 2-dimensional surface enclosed within a boundary.

    *   CONCACAF is a geographical region (North, Central America, and Caribbean) that serves a special purpose (football administration).
    *   Sense 1 fits best because it refers to a geographical region.
    *   Sense 4 (sphere/domain) might be considered, but CONCACAF is primarily a geographical confederation. However, looking at the context "limited international experience in an area such as CONCACAF", it refers to the region where the teams play.

    *   Sense 1: "a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography)". CONCACAF is exactly this.
    *   Sense 4: "a particular environment or walk of life". While football is a walk of life, CONCACAF is a specific region within that walk of life.

    *   The word "area" refers to CONCACAF.
    *   CONCACAF is a geographical region.
    *   Sense 1 is the most accurate.
