    *   Context: "One writer, signing his letter as 'Red-blooded, balanced male,' <t>remarked</t> on the 'frequency of women fainting in peals,' and suggested that they 'settle back into their traditional role of making tea at meetings.'"

    *   Sense 1: `make mention of` (synonyms: note, observe, mention). Example: "She observed that his presentation took up too much time."
    *   Sense 2: `make or write a comment on` (synonyms: comment, notice, point out). Example: "he commented the paper of his colleague."

    *   The writer "remarked on the 'frequency of women fainting in peals'".
    *   This is a specific comment/observation about a particular topic.
    *   Sense 1 is about mentioning something (often as a side note or a general observation).
    *   Sense 2 is about making a comment on something.
    *   Looking at the synonyms:
        *   Sense 1: note, observe, mention.
        *   Sense 2: comment, notice, point out.
    *   "Remarked on" is a very common construction for "commented on".
    *   Let's compare:
        *   "He mentioned the frequency of women fainting..." (Sense 1)
        *   "He commented on the frequency of women fainting..." (Sense 2)
    *   In the context of a letter to a newspaper, the writer is making a specific, opinionated comment.
    *   Sense 2 ("make or write a comment on") fits perfectly with "remarked on".

    *   Sense 1: "make mention of" (often used as "remarked that...")
    *   Sense 2: "make or write a comment on" (often used as "remarked on...")
    *   The sentence says "remarked on the 'frequency...'", which aligns better with "make or write a comment on".

    *   Sense 1: "She observed that his presentation took up too much time" (remarked that...)
    *   Sense 2: "he commented the paper of his colleague" (remarked on/commented on...)

    The target sentence is "remarked on the 'frequency...'", which matches the structure and meaning of Sense 2.

*   Target lemma: "role"
    *   Context: "...suggested that they 'settle back into their traditional <t>role</t> of making tea at meetings.'"
    *   Meaning: The speaker is suggesting that women should return to a specific set of activities (making tea) that were traditionally expected of them in that social/group setting.

    *   Sense 1: "an actor's portrayal of someone in a play" (Not applicable; not about acting).
    *   Sense 2: "what something is used for" (Usually refers to objects/tools; "function, purpose, use").
    *   Sense 3: "the actions and activities assigned to or required or expected of a person or group" (Synonyms: function, office, part. Example: "the function of a teacher").
    *   Sense 4: "normal or customary activity of a person in a particular social setting" (Example: "what is your role on the team?").

    *   Sense 3 focuses on *assigned, required, or expected* actions/activities.
    *   Sense 4 focuses on *normal or customary* activity in a *particular social setting*.
    *   The context "traditional role of making tea" strongly implies a societal expectation or a customary activity assigned to a specific group (women) based on tradition.
    *   Comparing Sense 3 and Sense 4:
        *   Sense 3: "actions and activities assigned to or required or expected of a person or group".
        *   Sense 4: "normal or customary activity of a person in a particular social setting".
    *   "Traditional role" usually aligns with the societal expectations/assignments (Sense 3) or the customary activities (Sense 4).
    *   Looking at the WordNet hierarchy (though not provided, I recall Sense 3 is often the broader "social role" and Sense 4 is a more specific "position/function within a group").
    *   "Making tea at meetings" is a customary activity (Sense 4) but it's also an expected activity assigned to women by tradition (Sense 3).
    *   Let's re-read Sense 3: "the actions and activities assigned to or required or expected of a person or group".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 4: "normal or customary activity of a person in a particular social setting".
    *   The phrase "traditional role" almost always maps to the societal expectations/assignments (Sense 3). Sense 4 feels more like a specific position (e.g., "my role on the team is captain"). "Making tea" isn't a position on a team, but an expected activity based on gender (a social group).

    *   Sense 3: "the actions and activities assigned to or required or expected of a person or group" -> Fits "traditional role of making tea" perfectly.
    *   Sense 4: "normal or customary activity of a person in a particular social setting" -> Also fits, but Sense 3's "expected of a person or group" is a stronger match for "traditional role".

    *Self-Correction/Refinement:*
    In many WordNet versions, Sense 3 is the general "social role" (e.g., mother, teacher, citizen), and Sense 4 is more about a specific role within a specific organization or team. "Traditional role of women" is a classic example of Sense 3.

    *   Sense 1: Actor (No)
    *   Sense 2: Object function (No)
    *   Sense 3: Expected activities of a group (Yes)
    *   Sense 4: Customary activity in a social setting/team (Possible, but Sense 3 is better for "traditional role").

    Wait, let me look closer at Sense 4: "normal or customary activity of a person in a particular social setting".
    And Sense 3: "the actions and activities assigned to or required or expected of a person or group".
    "Traditional role" implies an expectation based on group membership (women). This aligns very well with Sense 3.

    Let's double-check the examples:
    Sense 3: "the function of a teacher; the government must do its part"
    Sense 4: "what is your role on the team?"

    "Making tea" is an activity expected of women (the group) in that setting. Sense 3 is the broader, more appropriate category for gender roles.

"Right now, we're lucky if after five years we keep one new ringer out of 10, "he adds. One bright sign is that a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field; more than a third of the ringers today are women. They are not accepted everywhere, however. The oldest bell-ringing group in the country, the Ancient Society of College Youths, founded in 1637, remains male-only, a fact that's particularly galling to women because the group is the sole source of ringers for Britain's most prestigious churches, St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. This being Britain, no woman has filed an equal-opportunity suit, but the extent of the problem surfaced this summer in a series of letters to "The Ringing World, "a weekly newspaper for ringers. One writer, signing his letter as "Red-blooded, balanced male, "remarked on the "frequency of women fainting in peals, "and suggested that they "settle back into their traditional role of making tea at <t>meetings</t>. "In the torrent of replies that followed, one woman ringer from Solihull observed that "the average male ringer leaves quite a lot to be desired: badly dressed, decorated with acne and a large beer-belly, frequently unwashed and unbearably flatulent in peals.

*   Target lemma: `meeting`
    *   Target surface form: `meetings`
    *   Context: "...suggested that they 'settle back into their traditional role of making tea at <t>meetings</t>.'"
    *   Contextual clues: The context discusses bell-ringers, a male-dominated field, and a specific group (Ancient Society of College Youths). The speaker is suggesting women should go back to "making tea at meetings." This implies organized gatherings of the bell-ringing community or society.

    *   Sense 1: `meeting%1:04:02::` - the act of joining together as one (merging). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 2: `meeting%1:14:01::` - a small informal social gathering (get together). (Possible, but "making tea at meetings" in the context of a society usually implies the organized meetings of that society).
    *   Sense 3: `meeting%1:15:00::` - a place where things merge or flow together (confluence). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 4: `meeting%1:14:00::` - a formally arranged gathering (group meeting). (Strong candidate: societies have formally arranged meetings).
    *   Sense 5: `meeting%1:04:00::` - the social act of assembling for some common purpose (coming together). (Too general).
    *   Sense 6: `meeting%1:11:00::` - a casual or unexpected convergence (encounter). (Incorrect).

    *   The context mentions the "Ancient Society of College Youths" and the "Ringing World" newspaper. The "meetings" referred to are the gatherings of these bell-ringing groups/societies.
    *   Sense 4 ("a formally arranged gathering") fits best for the meetings of a society or organization.
    *   Sense 2 ("a small informal social gathering") is less likely given the context of a formal society, although "making tea" sounds social. However, the "meetings" of a society are typically formally arranged.

    *   Sense 4: "a formally arranged gathering" (synonym: group meeting).
    *   Sense 2: "a small informal social gathering" (synonym: get together).
    *   In the context of a society (like the Ancient Society of College Youths), the gatherings are typically "meetings" in the sense of organized society meetings.

    *   Sense 4 is the most appropriate for organized group gatherings.

*   Target word: "average"
    *   Context: "...one woman ringer from Solihull observed that 'the average male ringer leaves quite a lot to be desired: badly dressed, decorated with acne and a large beer-belly, frequently unwashed and unbearably flatulent in peals.'"
    *   Usage: "the average male ringer"

    *   Sense 1: `common:01` - lacking special distinction, rank, or status; commonly encountered (synonym: ordinary).
    *   Sense 2: `normal:01` (modal) - most frequent value in a distribution.
    *   Sense 3: `normal:01` (mean) - approximating the statistical norm or average or expected value (synonym: mean).
    *   Sense 4: `moderate:00` - around the middle of a scale of evaluation (synonym: intermediate, medium).
    *   Sense 5: `normal:01` (median) - middle value of an ordered set.
    *   Sense 6: `ordinary:00` - lacking exceptional quality or ability (synonym: fair, mediocre, middling).

    *   The speaker is describing a stereotypical "typical" male ringer.
    *   "The average male ringer" here doesn't mean a mathematical mean (Sense 3), a median (Sense 5), or a mode (Sense 2).
    *   It doesn't mean "mediocre" in terms of skill (Sense 6), although the description is negative.
    *   It doesn't mean "medium size" (Sense 4).
    *   It means the "typical" or "ordinary" person of that group—the one who represents the common characteristics of the group.

    *   Sense 1: "lacking special distinction, rank, or status; commonly encountered" (synonym: ordinary).
    *   Sense 3: "approximating the statistical norm or average or expected value" (synonym: mean).

    Wait, let's look closer at Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
    "The average person" often maps to "the typical person."
    Sense 1: "average people; the ordinary (or common) man in the street"
    Sense 3: "the average income in New England... of average height for his age"

    In the sentence "the average male ringer leaves quite a lot to be desired," the speaker is talking about the *typical* male ringer. This is a generalization about the common characteristics of the group.

    Comparing "the average male ringer" to "the ordinary man in the street" (Sense 1) vs "the average income" (Sense 3).
    Sense 1 is about being "commonly encountered" or "ordinary."
    Sense 3 is about the "statistical norm."

    In common parlance, "the average [person]" usually means the typical or representative person. WordNet often distinguishes between the statistical mean (Sense 3) and the "ordinary/typical" person (Sense 1).

    Let's re-read Sense 1: "lacking special distinction, rank, or status; commonly encountered | synonyms=ordinary | examples=average people; the ordinary (or common) man in the street".
    This fits "the average male ringer" perfectly as a way of saying "the typical/ordinary male ringer."

    Let's re-read Sense 3: "approximating the statistical norm or average or expected value | synonyms=mean | examples=the average income in New England is below that of the nation; of average height for his age".
    This is more about quantitative measurements (income, height).

    The context "badly dressed, decorated with acne and a large beer-belly" describes qualitative traits of a typical person, not a statistical mean of a measurement.

    Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit.
