The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "skip" in the given context.
The context is: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often <t>skip</t> off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."

The action described is ringers leaving the tower/work area and going to the local pub after finishing their work.

Let's analyze the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=skip%2:31:01:: | definition=bypass | synonyms=jump, pass over, skip over | examples=He skipped a row in the text and so the sentence was incomprehensible**
   * This means to avoid or pass over something (like a row of text). While they are leaving the worship, the primary meaning here is movement away from the location, not just bypassing a specific item.

2. **sense_key=skip%2:42:00:: | definition=intentionally fail to attend | synonyms=cut | examples=cut class**
   * This means to miss an obligation (like class). While they are leaving worship, the verb "skip off to the local pub" suggests a sudden departure, not just failing to attend in a formal sense, but rather leaving the premises.

3. **sense_key=skip%2:38:00:: | definition=jump lightly | synonyms=hop, hop-skip**
   * This refers to physical jumping (like skipping rope). The context describes moving *off* to the pub, not necessarily jumping lightly.

4. **sense_key=skip%2:38:02:: | definition=leave suddenly | synonyms=decamp, vamoose | examples=She persuaded him to decamp; skip town**
   * This perfectly matches the context: they finish work and then "skip off to the local pub," which means they suddenly depart or leave the location.

5. **sense_key=skip%2:38:03:: | definition=bound off one point after another | synonyms=bound off**
   * This suggests rapid, continuous movement between points (like skipping stones across water, but applied to movement). While they are moving, "leave suddenly" (sense 4) captures the intent of the departure better than continuous bounding.

6. **sense_key=skip%2:35:00:: | definition=cause to skip over a surface | synonyms=skim, skitter | examples=Skip a stone across the pond**
   * This is about the action of the object (the stone) over the surface, not the action of the person leaving.

Conclusion: Sense 4, "leave suddenly," is the best fit for "skip off to the local pub."

Context: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the <t>local</t> pub, leaving worship for others below."

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=local%3:00:01:: | definition=relating to or applicable to or concerned with the administration of a city or town or district rather than a larger area | examples=local taxes; local authorities (Focus: administration/governance)

3. sense_key=local%3:00:02:: | definition=affecting only a restricted part or area of the body | examples=local anesthesia (Focus: body/medical)

Analysis:
1. The context mentions ringers skipping off to a "local pub."
2. The pub is a specific establishment in the area where the ringers are located (presumably near the church/belfry).
3. Sense 3 (body area) is clearly incorrect.
4. Sense 1 (administration/governance) is too formal and administrative for describing a pub.
5. Sense 2 (of or belonging to or characteristic of a particular locality or neighborhood) perfectly fits the idea of a pub that is part of the immediate neighborhood or area.

Conclusion: Sense 2 is the best fit.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "leaving" in the provided context.
The target lemma is "leave".
The target surface form is "leaving".

Context:
"...ringers often skip off to the local pub, <t>leaving</t> worship for others below. This does not sit well with some clerics."

The action described is the ringers going to the pub, and as a result of this action, they are "leaving worship for others below."
This means they are abandoning or ceasing their participation in the worship service.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=leave%2:38:01:: | definition=go away from a place | synonyms=go forth, go away | Examples: At what time does your train leave?; She didn't leave until midnight. (This is about physical departure from a location, but the context is about abandoning an activity/duty.)
2. sense_key=leave%2:31:05:: | definition=go and leave behind, either intentionally or by neglect or forgetfulness | Examples: She left a mess when she moved out; His good luck finally left him. (This implies physical or abstract residue/abandonment, but the context is about abandoning an activity.)
3. sense_key=leave%2:42:02:: | definition=act or be so as to become in a specified state | Examples: The inflation left them penniless; The president's remarks left us speechless. (Causation/result, not applicable here.)
4. sense_key=leave%2:30:02:: | definition=leave unchanged or undisturbed or refrain from taking | synonyms=leave alone, leave behind | Examples: leave it as is; leave the young fawn alone. (Refraining from action, but the context is actively abandoning the activity.)
5. sense_key=leave%2:38:00:: | definition=move out of or depart from | synonyms=exit, go out, get out | Examples: leave the room; the fugitive has left the country. (Physical departure, similar to 1, but less focused on the abandonment of a duty/activity.)
6. sense_key=leave%2:42:01:: | definition=make a possibility or provide opportunity for; permit to be attainable or cause to remain | synonyms=allow for, allow, provide | Examples: This leaves no room for improvement; The evidence allows only one conclusion. (Causation/permission, not applicable.)
7. sense_key=leave%2:42:00:: | definition=have as a result or residue | synonyms=result, lead | Examples: The water left a mark on the silk dress; Her blood left a stain on the napkin. (Result/residue, not applicable.)
8. sense_key=leave%2:41:00:: | definition=remove oneself from an association with or participation in | synonyms=depart, pull up stakes | Examples: She wants to leave; The teenager left home. (This perfectly matches the idea of abandoning participation in an activity/group/duty.)
9. sense_key=leave%2:40:06:: | definition=put into the care or protection of someone | synonyms=entrust | Examples: He left the decision to his deputy; leave your child the nurse's care. (Entrusting, not applicable.)
10. sense_key=leave%2:40:01:: | definition=leave or give by will after one's death | synonyms=bequeath, will | Examples: My aunt bequeathed me all her jewelry; My grandfather left me his entire estate. (Inheritance, not applicable.)
11. sense_key=leave%2:42:03:: | definition=have left or have as a remainder | Examples: That left the four of us; 19 minus 8 leaves 11. (Remainder/result, not applicable.)
12. sense_key=leave%2:30:03:: | definition=be survived by after one's death | synonyms=leave behind | Examples: He left six children; At her death, she left behind her husband and 11 cats. (Inheritance/survivors, not applicable.)
13. sense_key=leave%2:40:02:: | definition=transmit (knowledge or skills) | synonyms=impart, give, pass on | Examples: give a secret to the Russians; leave your name and address here. (Transmission, not applicable.)
14. sense_key=leave%2:31:02:: | definition=leave behind unintentionally | synonyms=forget | Examples: I forgot my umbrella in the restaurant; I left my keys inside the car and locked the doors. (Unintentional abandonment, not applicable.)

The context "leaving worship for others below" means they are ceasing their participation in the worship service. Sense 8, "remove oneself from an association with or participation in," is the most accurate fit.

Sense 8: definition=remove oneself from an association with or participation in.
Context: leaving worship (removing oneself from participation in the worship service).

I will select sense 8.

Thinking Process:

1.  **Analyze the Target Word and Context:**
    *   Target word: "worship"
    *   Context sentence: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving <t>worship</t> for others below."
    *   Surrounding context: The passage discusses church bells, ringing, intricate ritual, the church, and clerics. The action of "leaving worship for others below" implies a scheduled or ritualistic activity associated with the church service.

2.  **Analyze the Candidate Senses:**
    *   Sense 1: `sense_key=worship%1:04:00:: | definition=the activity of worshipping`
    *   Sense 2: `sense_key=worship%1:12:01:: | definition=a feeling of profound love and admiration | synonyms=adoration`

3.  **Evaluate Sense 1 (Activity of worshipping):**
    *   Does "leaving worship" fit the definition "the activity of worshipping"? Yes. In a church context, "worship" often refers to the service or the act of devotion performed by the congregation or clergy. The ringers are leaving the service/activity for the pub.

4.  **Evaluate Sense 2 (Feeling of profound love and admiration):**
    *   Does "leaving worship" fit the definition "a feeling of profound love and admiration"? No. You don't typically "leave a feeling" in this manner; you leave an activity or a place.

5.  **Determine the Best Fit:**
    *   The context is explicitly religious (church bells, clerics, belfry). The phrase "leaving worship" strongly suggests leaving the religious service or the act of devotion.
    *   Sense 1 ("the activity of worshipping") is the clear and correct interpretation.

6.  **Format the Output:**
    *   The instruction requires returning only a JSON object with the sense index.
    *   Sense 1 corresponds to index 1. (Wait, the prompt uses numbered candidates, so Sense 1 is the first candidate).

7.  **Final Check:**
    *   Candidate 1 = Sense 1.
    *   Candidate 2 = Sense 2.
    *   Best fit is Candidate 1.
    *   The required output format is `{"sense_index": 3}` (Wait, the example output uses index 3, but I only have 2 candidates. I must assume the index refers to the candidate number provided in the list, or perhaps the prompt structure is flawed, but I must choose the index corresponding to the best sense).
    *   Since Sense 1 is the best fit, and it is the first candidate listed, I will use index 1. (If the provided example output structure `{"sense_index": 3}` is mandatory, I must assume there is an error in the prompt's numbering or my interpretation of the index, but based purely on the provided candidates, the answer is 1).

*Self-Correction/Refinement:* The prompt asks me to choose the single best indexed sense. I will use the index corresponding to the best sense (Sense 1).

Best Sense: Sense 1.
Index: 1.

5. sense_key=below%4:02:03:: | definition=further down | synonyms=under | examples=see under for further discussion

Analysis of the context:
The context describes ringers who work in a tower/belfry. After their work, they go to the local pub, "leaving worship for others below."
"Worship" refers to the religious service taking place in the church.
The phrase "leaving worship for others below" implies that the people receiving the worship (the congregation) are located in a physically lower area than the ringers (who are in the tower/belfry).

Evaluation of senses:
1. sense_key=below%4:02:01: "in or to a place that is lower". This matches the physical location implied (congregation below the tower).
2. sense_key=below%4:02:00: "at a later place". This is temporal, which doesn't fit the physical description.
3. sense_key=below%4:02:02: "(in writing) see below". This is a reference marker, which doesn't fit the narrative flow.
4. sense_key=below%4:02:06: "on a floor below". This is specific to floors, but sense 1 is broader and fits the general concept of a lower place where the congregation is located relative to the tower.
5. sense_key=below%4:02:03: "further down". This is directional, but sense 1 captures the spatial relationship (lower place) more accurately in this context.

Conclusion:
Sense 1, "in or to a place that is lower," is the most accurate description of the spatial relationship between the ringers (in the tower) and the congregation (in the church below).

4.  **Compare the best candidates (6 and 13):**
    *   Sense 6: "favorably; with approval." If something "sits well," it is received favorably or with approval. This is a strong match.
    *   Sense 13: "without unusual distress or resentment; with good humor." This describes the *manner* of reception (e.g., "took the news well"). While related, Sense 6 captures the meaning of acceptability/approval more directly for the phrase "sit well with."
5.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 6 ("favorably; with approval") is the most accurate interpretation of "This does not sit well with some clerics."
6.  **Format the output.**

    *   **Sense 2:** `sense_key=membership%1:26:00:: | definition=the state of being a member`
        *   Focus: The status or condition of belonging (the state).

3.  **Determine the best fit:**
    *   The phrase is "membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling."
    *   Does "dwindling membership" refer to the *body* of people (Sense 1) or the *state* of belonging (Sense 2)?
    *   When discussing a population or institution (like a church), "membership dwindling" almost always refers to the *number* of people who belong, which is the collective body/count.
    *   If it were "the state of being a member dwindling," it would be an abstract, less common phrasing. "The body of members dwindling" (Sense 1) is the standard way to express this decline in institutional size.

4.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1, referring to the body/group of members, is the most appropriate fit for "membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling."

5.  **Format the output:** The instruction requires a JSON object with the sense index. Since the candidates are numbered 1 and 2, the chosen sense is 1. (Wait, the prompt asks for the JSON format `{"sense_index": 3}` but only provides two candidates. I must assume the numbering in the final output refers to the candidate list provided.)

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "steadily" in the given context.

Context: "With membership of the Church of England <t>steadily</t> dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."

Target word: steadily (adverb)

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=steadily%4:02:01:: | definition=at a steady rate or pace | examples=his interest eroded steadily
2. sense_key=steadily%4:02:00:: | definition=in a steady manner | synonyms=steady | examples=he could still walk steadily

Analysis:
The phrase is "membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling".
"Dwindling" means decreasing or diminishing.
The adverb "steadily" modifies "dwindling," describing *how* the membership is decreasing.

Sense 1: "at a steady rate or pace". This fits perfectly with the idea of a gradual, consistent decrease (dwindling).
Sense 2: "in a steady manner". While technically correct, this is very general. Sense 1 specifies the *nature* of the manner (rate/pace), which is more precise when paired with "dwindling."

Comparing the fit:
"Membership dwindling steadily" implies a consistent, measurable rate of decline. This aligns strongly with "at a steady rate or pace."

Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "vicars" (plural of "vicar") based on the provided context.

Context analysis:
The text discusses ringers, the church, the Church of England, and clerics.
The relevant sentence is: "With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed <t>vicars</t> are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."
A subsequent example clarifies the role: "Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, vicar of Great Torrington, Devon, got so fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band..."

The context explicitly mentions the "Church of England" and describes the vicars as clerics who are concerned about attendance at services.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=vicar%1:18:00:: | definition=a Roman Catholic priest who acts for another higher-ranking clergyman
2. sense_key=vicar%1:18:02:: | definition=(Episcopal Church) a clergyman in charge of a chapel
3. sense_key=vicar%1:18:01:: | definition=(Church of England) a clergyman appointed to act as priest of a parish

Evaluation:
1. Sense 1 is specific to Roman Catholic priests. The context mentions the Church of England.
2. Sense 2 is specific to the Episcopal Church (a denomination, often associated with Anglicanism, but Sense 3 is more precise given the explicit mention of the Church of England).
3. Sense 3 is specific to the Church of England and defines the vicar as a clergyman appointed to act as priest of a parish. This perfectly matches the context ("Church of England," "clerics," "pressing... to attend services").

Conclusion: Sense 3 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the target word and context:**
    *   Target surface form: *pressing* (present participle of *press*)
    *   Context sentence: "With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are <t>pressing</t> equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."
    *   Meaning required: The vicars are actively encouraging, insisting, or forcing the ringers to attend services.

2.  **Examine the candidates and their definitions/synonyms:**

    *   1. exert pressure or force to or upon (General physical force) - Less likely, as the action is social/persuasive.
    *   2. force or impel in an indicated direction (Synonyms: urge, urge on, exhort) - This fits the idea of compelling someone to do something (attend services).
    *   3. to be oppressive or burdensome (Synonyms: weigh) - This is an adjective/state of being, not an active verb of compelling.
    *   4. place between two surfaces and apply weight or pressure (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   5. squeeze or press together (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   6. crowd closely (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   7. create by pressing (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   8. be urgent (Adjective) - Irrelevant.
    *   9. exert oneself continuously, vigorously, or obtrusively to gain an end or engage in a crusade for a certain cause or person; be an advocate for (Synonyms: crusade, fight, campaign, push, agitate) - This strongly matches the idea of actively campaigning or pushing for compliance/attendance.
    *   10. press from a plastic (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   11. make strenuous pushing movements during birth (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   12. press and smooth with a heated iron (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   13. lift weights (Physical action) - Irrelevant.
    *   14. ask for or request earnestly (Synonyms: bid, beseech, entreat, adjure, conjure) - This is a strong candidate, focusing on earnest request/persuasion.

3.  **Compare the best candidates (2, 9, 14):**

    *   **Candidate 2 (force or impel):** Vicars are *forcing* the ringers to attend. This is accurate.
    *   **Candidate 14 (ask for or request earnestly):** Vicars are *earnest requesting* the ringers to attend. This is also accurate, but perhaps slightly softer than the context implies, given the "strong-willed vicars" and the previous mention of sacking the band.
    *   **Candidate 9 (exert oneself... to gain an end... push, agitate):** Vicars are *aggressively campaigning/pushing* the ringers to attend. This captures the strong, persistent, and potentially forceful nature implied by the context (dwindling membership, strong-willed vicars, previous conflict).

4.  **Select the single best fit:**
    The context suggests more than just a polite request (14) or a simple impulsion (2). The vicars are actively campaigning or pushing against resistance ("strong-willed ringers") to achieve a goal (attendance). Sense 9, with synonyms like *push* and *agitate*, best captures this vigorous, goal-oriented, and potentially obtrusive form of persuasion/coercion.

5.  **Final check:** "Vicars are pressing ringers to attend services" aligns perfectly with the definition of Sense 9: actively pushing/campaigning for them to attend.

Context: "With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing <t>equally</t> strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."

Target word: equally

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=equally%4:02:01:: | definition=to the same degree (often followed by `as') | synonyms=as, every bit | examples=they were equally beautiful; birds were singing and the child sang as sweetly
2. sense_key=equally%4:02:02:: | definition=in equal amounts or shares; in a balanced or impartial way | synonyms=evenly | examples=a class evenly divided between girls and boys; they split their winnings equally

Analysis of the context:
The sentence describes vicars who are "pressing" (urging/insisting upon) ringers. The vicars are described as "strong-willed." The word "equally" modifies "strong-willed" (or modifies the manner in which they are pressing, but grammatically it modifies the adjective "strong-willed" applied to the ringers).

"strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers..."

This structure suggests that the ringers possess the same degree of strong-willedness as the vicars, or that the vicars are pressing them with the same degree of strength/intensity.

If "equally" modifies "strong-willed ringers," it means the ringers are strong-willed *to the same degree* as the vicars (or perhaps to the same degree as other people mentioned, though the comparison is implied).

Let's test the senses:

Sense 1: "to the same degree (often followed by `as')"
If we interpret it as "equally strong-willed," it means they possess the same degree of strong will. This fits the comparative nature implied by the context (vicars are strong-willed, and the ringers are also strong-willed, and the word "equally" links these degrees).

Sense 2: "in equal amounts or shares; in a balanced or impartial way"
This sense relates to distribution or balance (e.g., splitting winnings equally). This does not fit the description of personality traits ("strong-willed").

Conclusion: Sense 1, meaning "to the same degree," is the correct fit.

Mapping to the required output format:
The chosen sense is sense_key=equally%4:02:01.
The instruction requires returning only a JSON object exactly like `{"sense_index": 3}`. Since the candidates are numbered 1 and 2, I must assume the user made a mistake in the example output format or I should use the index corresponding to the chosen sense (1).

Wait, the example output is `{"sense_index": 3}`. If I choose sense 1, the index should be 1. I must adhere to the provided instructions and constraints. I will select sense 1 and use index 1.

Re-reading the instructions: "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}." This implies I must use the index provided in the prompt's example, even if my chosen sense is 1 or 2. This is contradictory.

Standard procedure in WSD tasks is to use the index of the chosen sense. I choose sense 1. I will use index 1.

If I strictly follow the example output structure `{"sense_index": 3}`, I am forced to choose sense 3, which does not exist. I will assume the example output was a placeholder and use the correct index (1).

Chosen sense: 1.

Context: "With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and <t>often</t> non-religious ringers to attend services."

Target word: often

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=often%4:02:00:: | definition=many times at short intervals | synonyms=frequently, oftentimes, oft, ofttimes | examples=we often met over a cup of coffee
2. sense_key=often%4:02:01:: | definition=frequently or in great quantities | synonyms=much, a great deal | examples=I don't drink much; I don't travel much
3. sense_key=often%4:02:02:: | definition=in many cases or instances

Analysis of the context:
The sentence discusses vicars pressuring ringers to attend services. The ringers are described as "equally strong-willed and often non-religious."
Here, "often" modifies "non-religious." It suggests that the ringers are frequently non-religious, or that the characteristic of being non-religious applies to them in many instances/cases.

Evaluation of senses:
1. sense_key=often%4:02:00 (many times at short intervals / frequently): This focuses on temporal frequency (e.g., meeting often). While "frequently" is a synonym, the usage here is describing a characteristic (non-religious) rather than a repeated action.
2. sense_key=often%4:02:01 (frequently or in great quantities): This sense includes "much" and "a great deal," which usually relates to quantity (e.g., drinking much). This doesn't fit the context of describing a type of person (non-religious).
3. sense_key=often%4:02:02 (in many cases or instances): This sense captures the idea of prevalence or typicality. Saying they are "often non-religious" means that in many cases or instances, they are non-religious. This fits perfectly with describing a general characteristic or tendency of the group of ringers.

Conclusion: Sense 3 is the best fit.

1.  **Analyze the target word and context:**
    *   Target lemma: ringer
    *   Target surface form: ringers
    *   Context snippet: "admits Stephanie Pattenden, master of the band at St. Mary Abbot and one of England's best female ringers. It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, however. More often than not, ringers think of the church as something stuck on the bottom of the belfry. When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub..."
    *   Later context: "...strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious <t>ringers</t> to attend services. Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, vicar of Great Torrington, Devon, got so fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest."

2.  **Analyze the candidate senses:**
    *   Sense 1: a person who rings church bells (as for summoning the congregation). Synonyms: toller, bell ringer.
    *   Sense 2: a person who is almost identical to another. Synonyms: dead ringer, clone.
    *   Sense 3: a contestant entered in a competition under false pretenses.
    *   Sense 4: (horseshoes) the successful throw of a horseshoe or quoit so as to encircle a stake or peg.

3.  **Match context to senses:**
    *   The context repeatedly mentions "master of the band at St. Mary Abbot," "tower," "belfry," "church," "vicars," "attend services," and "sacked the entire band."
    *   This strongly points to people involved in church bell ringing.
    *   Sense 1 ("a person who rings church bells") perfectly matches this theme.
    *   Sense 2 (lookalike) is irrelevant.
    *   Sense 3 (cheater/contestant) is irrelevant.
    *   Sense 4 (horseshoes) is irrelevant.

4.  **Select the best sense:** Sense 1 is the clear and unambiguous choice.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "attend" in the given context.

Context: "With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to <t>attend</t> services. Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, vicar of Great Torrington, Devon, got so fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest."

The key phrase is "attend services" and "didn't attend service".

Let's analyze the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=attend%2:42:00:: | definition=be present at (meetings, church services, university), etc. | synonyms=go to | examples=She attends class regularly; I rarely attend services at my church**
   * This sense perfectly matches the context ("attend services", "didn't attend service"). The examples provided also use "attend services".

2. **sense_key=attend%2:41:12:: | definition=take charge of or deal with | synonyms=take care, look, see | examples=Could you see about lunch?; I must attend to this matter**
   * This means dealing with a matter (e.g., "attend to a complaint"). This does not fit "attend services".

3. **sense_key=attend%2:42:01:: | definition=to accompany as a circumstance or follow as a result | examples=Menuhin's playing was attended by a 15-minute standing ovation**
   * This is a literary/circumstantial usage (e.g., "attended by rain"). This does not fit.

4. **sense_key=attend%2:41:00:: | definition=work for or be a servant to | synonyms=serve, attend to, wait on, assist | examples=May I serve you?; She attends the old lady in the wheelchair**
   * This means serving someone (e.g., "attend a patient"). This does not fit "attend services".

5. **sense_key=attend%2:39:00:: | definition=give heed (to) | synonyms=hang, advert, pay heed, give ear | examples=The children in the audience attended the recital quietly; She hung on his every word**
   * This means paying attention (e.g., "attend to instructions"). While "attend" can mean paying attention, the context here is about physical presence at a service ("didn't attend service"), not mental focus.

Conclusion: Sense 1 is the definitive match.

The required output format is a JSON object with the sense index.

Context:
"...strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend <t>services</t>. Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, vicar of Great Torrington, Devon, got so fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest."

The context discusses ringers (people who ring bells in a church tower), clerics, vicars, and the requirement to attend "services." The mention of "vicars" (church officials) and "Rev." (Reverend) strongly suggests a religious setting.

Candidate senses:
1. work done by one person or group that benefits another (General service/labor)
2. an act of help or assistance (General help)
3. the act of public worship following prescribed rules (Religious ceremony) -> Synonyms: religious service, divine service. Example: the Sunday service.
4. a company or agency that performs a public service; subject to government regulation (Utility/Agency)
5. employment in or work for another (Job/Career)
6. a force that is a branch of the armed forces (Military)
7. Canadian writer (Proper noun)
8. a means of serving (Method of help)
9. tableware consisting of a complete set of articles (Dining ware)
10. the act of mating by male animals (Zoological)
11. (law) the acts performed by an English feudal tenant for the benefit of his lord (Feudal duty)
12. (sports) a stroke that puts the ball in play (Tennis/Volleyball)
13. (law) the act of delivering a writ or summons upon someone (Legal procedure)
14. periodic maintenance on a car or machine (Mechanical repair)
15. the performance of duties by a waiter or servant (Hospitality)

Analysis:
The context explicitly links "services" to "vicars," "clerics," "church," and "Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone." The phrase "attend services" in this religious context refers to attending religious worship.

Sense 3: "the act of public worship following prescribed rules" matches this perfectly. The synonyms provided (religious service, divine service) confirm this interpretation.

Conclusion: Sense 3 is the best fit.

Analysis:
The phrase is "Two years ago". This construction refers to a specific point in time in the past, measured by the duration since an event occurred.

1. sense_key=year%1:28:01: This sense defines a period of time (365/366 days). This fits perfectly with "Two years ago," which is a measure of elapsed time.
2. sense_key=year%1:28:02: This refers to a specific segment of a calendar year (e.g., school year). This does not fit "Two years ago."
3. sense_key=year%1:28:00: This refers to astronomical orbital periods. This is irrelevant to the context.
4. sense_key=year%1:14:00: This refers to a cohort of students. This is irrelevant to the context.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "vicar" based on the provided context.

Context analysis:
The text discusses ringers, the church, the belfry, and clerics.
The relevant sentence is: "With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."
Later, it mentions: "Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, <t>vicar</t> of Great Torrington, Devon, got so fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest. 'They were a self-perpetuating club that treated the tower as sort of a separate premises, 'the Vicar Hummerstone says."

The context explicitly mentions the "Church of England" and refers to the individual as "the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone."

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=vicar%1:18:00:: | definition=a Roman Catholic priest who acts for another higher-ranking clergyman
2. sense_key=vicar%1:18:02:: | definition=(Episcopal Church) a clergyman in charge of a chapel
3. sense_key=vicar%1:18:01:: | definition=(Church of England) a clergyman appointed to act as priest of a parish

Evaluation:
1. Sense 1 is specific to Roman Catholic priests acting for a higher-ranking clergyman. The context is about the Church of England. (Mismatch)
2. Sense 2 refers to an Episcopal Church clergyman in charge of a chapel. While the Church of England is Anglican (related to Episcopal tradition), Sense 3 is much more specific and accurate given the explicit mention of the Church of England. (Less specific/accurate)
3. Sense 3 is defined as "(Church of England) a clergyman appointed to act as priest of a parish." This perfectly matches the context, which discusses the Church of England, parish life (Great Torrington, Devon), and the role of a clergyman (Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone). (Best match)

Conclusion: Sense 3 is the best fit.

Target lemma: so
Target surface form: so
Context:
It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, however. More often than not, ringers think of the church as something stuck on the bottom of the belfry. When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below. This does not sit well with some clerics. With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services. Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, vicar of Great Torrington, Devon, got <t>so</t> fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest. "They were a self-perpetuating club that treated the tower as sort of a separate premises, "the Vicar Hummerstone says.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "so" in the given context.
The context is: "Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, vicar of Great Torrington, Devon, got <t>so</t> fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest."

The target word "so" modifies the adjective phrase "fed up".

Let's analyze the usage: "got so fed up". This structure typically indicates a high degree or intensity of the feeling ("fed up").

Now let's examine the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=so%4:02:02:: | definition=to a very great extent or degree | examples=the idea is so obvious; never been so happy
    * This matches the structure "so + adjective" indicating intensity. "So fed up" means extremely fed up.

2. sense_key=so%4:02:06:: | definition=in a manner that facilitates | (Manner/way)
    * Does not fit.

3. sense_key=so%4:02:05:: | definition=in such a condition or manner, especially as expressed or implied | (State/condition)
    * This is a general sense of manner/state, but sense 1 is more specific to degree/intensity.

4. sense_key=so%4:02:07:: | definition=to a certain unspecified extent or degree | examples=I can only go so far with this student; can do only so much in a day
    * This implies a limit, not necessarily a high degree of intensity (though it can sometimes overlap). "So fed up" usually implies a high degree, not just an unspecified one.

5. sense_key=so%4:02:08:: | definition=in the same way; also | (Conjunction/Adverbial connector)
    * Does not fit.

6. sense_key=so%4:02:04:: | definition=in the way indicated; ; ; (`thusly' is a nonstandard variant) | (Manner)
    * Does not fit.

7. sense_key=so%4:02:03:: | definition=(usually followed by `that') to an extent or degree as expressed | examples=he was so tired he could hardly stand; so dirty that it smells
    * This sense specifically covers the structure "so [adjective] that [result]". While the context doesn't explicitly have "that [result]", the core meaning is "to an extent or degree as expressed." This is very close to sense 1.

8. sense_key=so%4:02:09:: | definition=subsequently or soon afterward (often used as sentence connectors) | (Temporal connector)
    * Does not fit.

9. sense_key=so%4:02:10:: | definition=(used to introduce a logical conclusion) from that fact or reason or as a result | (Causal connector)
    * Does not fit.

10. sense_key=so%4:02:00:: | definition=in truth (often tends to intensify) | (Intensifier/Indeed)
    * This is an intensifier, but it usually functions as a standalone intensifier or precedes a statement ("It is so true"). Here, it modifies an adjective ("fed up").

Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 7:
Sense 1: "to a very great extent or degree" (e.g., so obvious, so happy).
Sense 7: "to an extent or degree as expressed" (e.g., so tired that...).

The phrase "so fed up" clearly means "extremely fed up," which falls under "to a very great extent or degree." Sense 1 captures this meaning perfectly. Sense 7 is often used when setting up a consequence clause (so... that...), but its definition also covers degree, and Sense 1 is a more direct match for the simple intensification of an adjective.

I choose Sense 1.
