Context:
The second quarter was more of the same, but the Alavan team opted for the inside game of Barac and the work of Eliyahu, who was greeted with whistles and applause at his return home, to continue increasing their lead by half-time (34-43). Teletovic had already begun to stand out as the best on his team with 13 points, even though Splitter's "six fewer" points already signaled that it wasn't going to be the best night for the Brazilian. But the game, despite being headed for halftime, was not more decidedand the Maccabees tried to remind the Vitorians that not just anybody wins on their court, and with the 'hand of Elias' putting the pressure on, they managed to get involved in the game. Eidson and Pnini played a decisive role in the "yellows'" return to the light. More disadvantages Ivanovic's players, injured but far from dead, needed to run a couple of plays correctly before they could breathe, and that's when the machine gun Marza Teletovic arrived, with three almost consecutive three-pointers and the help of English and Ribas, he brought the scoreboard back to a reassuring lead (54-67), which the home team managed to narrow down at the <t>end</t> of the third quarter (57-67). The Alavas worked themselves to the bone in the last period, and English and San Emeterio (65-75) had already made it clear that they were not going to let anyone take away what they had earned during the first thirty minutes.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence is: "More disadvantages Ivanovic's players, injured but far from dead, needed to run a couple of plays correctly before they could breathe, and that's when the machine gun Marza Teletovic arrived, with three almost consecutive three-pointers and the help of English and Ribas, he brought the scoreboard back to a reassuring lead (54-67), which the home team managed to narrow down at the <t>end</t> of the third quarter (57-67)."

2.  **Determine the meaning of 'end' in context:** 'End' refers to a specific point in time—the conclusion of the third quarter.

3.  **Examine the candidate senses:**
    *   1. extremity of something that has length (physical length). (No)
    *   2. the point in time at which something ends. (Matches the temporal context: "at the end of the third quarter").
    *   3. the concluding parts of an event or occurrence (a stage/part). (Possible, but sense 2 is more precise for a specific temporal marker).
    *   4. state of affairs/goal. (No)
    *   5. a final part or section (general section). (Less precise than sense 2).

    *   13. leftover cloth. (No)
    *   14. football position. (No)

4.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 2, "the point in time at which something ends," perfectly captures the meaning of "at the end of the third quarter."

5.  **Format the output:** Create the required JSON object.

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

Context: "The Alavas worked themselves to the bone in the last period, and English and San Emeterio (65-75) had already made it clear that they were not going to let anyone take away what they had earned during the first thirty minutes. The home team managed to narrow down at the end of the third <t>quarter</t> (57-67)."

The context describes a basketball game (indicated by scores like 65-75 and 57-67, and terms like "period," "lead," "points," "three-pointers"). The word "quarter" appears at the end of the third segment of the game.

Candidate senses:
1. one of four equal parts (general fraction)
2. a district of a city
3. (football, professional basketball) one of four divisions into which some games are divided
4. a unit of time equal to 15 minutes or a quarter of an hour
5. one of four periods into which the school year is divided
6. a fourth part of a year; three months
7. one of the four major division of the compass
8. a quarter of a hundredweight (25 pounds)
9. a quarter of a hundredweight (28 pounds)
10. a United States or Canadian coin
11. an unspecified person
12. the rear part of a ship
13. piece of leather (shoe part)
14. clemency or mercy

Analysis:
The context is clearly about a sports match (basketball). The phrase "the end of the third quarter" refers to a segment of the game.

Sense 3: (football, professional basketball) one of four divisions into which some games are divided. This perfectly matches the context of a basketball game being divided into quarters.
Sense 4: a unit of time equal to 15 minutes or a quarter of an hour. While quarters are units of time, Sense 3 is more specific to the structure of a game, which is the primary meaning here.
Sense 5: school year division. Incorrect context.
Sense 6: time division of a year. Incorrect context.

Sense 3 is the most precise fit for "quarter" when used in the context of a professional basketball game.

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

Context: "The Alavas worked themselves to the bone in the last period, and English and San Emeterio (65-75) had already made it clear that they were not going to let anyone take away what they had earned during the first thirty <t>minutes</t>. However, Pnini and Eidson, the best on their team, did not give up and tried to keep their team alive from the three-point line (70-77)."

The word "minutes" refers to a duration of time in a sports context (basketball, given the scoring and "quarter" mention).

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=minute%1:28:00:: | definition=a unit of time equal to 60 seconds or 1/60th of an hour | synonyms=min | examples=he ran a 4 minute mile
2. sense_key=minute%1:28:01:: | definition=an indefinitely short time | synonyms=moment, mo, second, bit | examples=wait just a moment; in a mo
3. sense_key=minute%1:28:02:: | definition=a particular point in time | synonyms=moment, second, instant | examples=the moment he arrived the party began

6. sense_key=minute%1:07:00:: | definition=distance measured by the time taken to cover it | synonyms=hour | examples=we live an hour from the airport; its just 10 minutes away

Analysis:
The phrase is "the first thirty minutes". This clearly refers to a measurable duration of time (30 units of time).

Sense 1: "a unit of time equal to 60 seconds or 1/60th of an hour". This matches the concept of a standard unit of time measurement, which is what "thirty minutes" represents.
Sense 2: "an indefinitely short time". This is too vague and doesn't fit the specific count of "thirty".
Sense 3: "a particular point in time". This refers to a specific instant (e.g., "at the minute mark"), not a duration.
Sense 4: Angular distance. Irrelevant.
Sense 5: Short note. Irrelevant.
Sense 6: Distance measured by time. While related to time, the context is simply counting the duration of play, not speed or distance covered.

Sense 1 is the best fit.

The corresponding index is 1.

Context snippet: "However, Pnini and Eidson, the best on their <t>team</t>, did not give up and tried to keep their team alive from the three-point line (70-77)."

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=team%1:14:00:: | definition=a cooperative unit (especially in sports) | synonyms=squad
2. sense_key=team%1:14:01:: | definition=two or more draft animals that work together to pull something

Analysis:
The context is clearly about a basketball game (mentioned throughout the passage: "game," "halftime," "three-pointers," "scoreboard," "quarter").
The phrase "the best on their team" refers to players belonging to a sports group.
The phrase "tried to keep their team alive" refers to the collective unit participating in the game.

Sense 1: "a cooperative unit (especially in sports)" matches the context perfectly.
Sense 2: "two or more draft animals that work together to pull something" is irrelevant to the context of basketball.

Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct choice.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Context:** The target word is "line". The relevant sentence is: "However, Pnini and Eidson, the best on their team, did not give up and tried to keep their team alive from the three-point <t>line</t> (70-77)."
    *   The context is a basketball game (Maccabees vs. Vitorians, scores mentioned, "three-pointers").
    *   The phrase "three-point line" is a specific term in basketball.
    *   The action is trying to keep the team "alive from" this line, implying a boundary or scoring area.

2.  **Analyze the Target Word and Collocations:** "three-point line" strongly suggests a boundary or a specific area used for scoring in sports.

Target lemma: team
Target surface form: team
Context:
Eidson and Pnini played a decisive role in the "yellows'" return to the light. More disadvantages Ivanovic's players, injured but far from dead, needed to run a couple of plays correctly before they could breathe, and that's when the machine gun Marza Teletovic arrived, with three almost consecutive three-pointers and the help of English and Ribas, he brought the scoreboard back to a reassuring lead (54-67), which the home team managed to narrow down at the end of the third quarter (57-67). The Alavas worked themselves to the bone in the last period, and English and San Emeterio (65-75) had already made it clear that they were not going to let anyone take away what they had earned during the first thirty minutes. However, Pnini and Eidson, the best on their team, did not give up and tried to keep their team alive from the three-point line (70-77). In spite of this, and with Splitter fouling out, Ivonic's <t>team</t> didn't rush, defended well, and, even though the Israelis came close at the last minute, the game was already won and victory escaped Tel Aviv for the first time in the season.

Candidate senses:

In spite of this, and with Splitter fouling out, Ivonic's <t>team</t> didn't rush, defended well, and, even though the Israelis came close at the last minute, the game was already won and victory escaped Tel Aviv for the first time in the season."

The context is clearly about a basketball game (references to "three-pointers," "scoreboard," "quarter," "fouling out," "game").

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=team%1:14:00:: | definition=a cooperative unit (especially in sports) | synonyms=squad
2. sense_key=team%1:14:01:: | definition=two or more draft animals that work together to pull something

Analysis:
The word "team" refers to the group of players (Ivonic's team) participating in the basketball game.
Sense 1: "a cooperative unit (especially in sports)" matches this perfectly.
Sense 2: "two or more draft animals that work together to pull something" is irrelevant to the context.

The best sense is Sense 1.

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

Context analysis:
The text describes a basketball game (implied by "three-pointers," "scoreboard," "quarter," "fouling out," "team," "lead").
Key phrases:
1. "...the home team managed to narrow down at the end of the third quarter (57-67)." (Score tracking)
2. "...Pnini and Eidson, the best on their team, did not give up and tried to keep their team alive from the three-point line (70-77)." (Action during the contest)
3. "...the <t>game</t> was already won and victory escaped Tel Aviv for the first time in the season." (Referring to the overall contest/match)

The word "game" refers to the entire sporting contest that was being played.

Candidate sense analysis:
1. sense_key=game%1:04:00:: | definition=a contest with rules to determine a winner | examples=you need four people to play this game (Matches the context of a sporting contest.)
2. sense_key=game%1:04:03:: | definition=a single play of a sport or other contest | examples=the game lasted two hours (This refers to the duration or a specific action, not the overall contest.)
3. sense_key=game%1:04:01:: | definition=an amusement or pastime | examples=they played word games; he thought of his painting as a game that filled his empty time (Too general, doesn't capture the high-stakes sporting context.)
4. sense_key=game%1:05:00:: | definition=animal hunted for food or sport (Irrelevant.)
5. sense_key=game%1:28:00:: | definition=(tennis) a division of play during which one player serves (Too specific, context is basketball.)
6. sense_key=game%1:23:00:: | definition=(games) the score at a particular point or the score needed to win (While related to the score, the sentence "the game was already won" refers to the status of the contest, not the score itself.)
7. sense_key=game%1:13:00:: | definition=the flesh of wild animals that is used for food (Irrelevant.)
8. sense_key=game%1:09:00:: | definition=a secret scheme to do something (Irrelevant.)
9. sense_key=game%1:06:00:: | definition=the game equipment needed in order to play a particular game (Irrelevant.)
10. sense_key=game%1:04:02:: | definition=your occupation or line of work (Irrelevant.)
11. sense_key=game%1:04:04:: | definition=frivolous or trifling behavior (Irrelevant.)

The best fit is sense 1: "a contest with rules to determine a winner." The context clearly describes a competitive sporting event (basketball) where a winner is determined.

Final check:
Context: "...the game was already won..."
Sense 1: "a contest with rules to determine a winner."
This is the correct interpretation.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "time" in the given context.
The context is: "...the game was already won and victory escaped Tel Aviv for the first <t>time</t> in the season."

The target word is "time".
The context indicates that this is the first instance/occasion that victory escaped Tel Aviv in the season.

Let's analyze the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=time%1:11:00::** | definition=an instance or single occasion for some event | synonyms=clip | examples=this time he succeeded; he called four times
    * This matches the meaning of "the first time" perfectly. It refers to a specific occasion.

2. **sense_key=time%1:28:05::** | definition=a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something | examples=take time to smell the roses; I didn't have time to finish
    * This refers to duration/resource management, not a specific occasion. (e.g., "I don't have time.")

3. **sense_key=time%1:28:00::** | definition=an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities) | examples=he waited a long time; the time of year for planting
    * This refers to a general, unspecified duration (e.g., "a long time").

4. **sense_key=time%1:28:06::** | definition=a suitable moment | examples=it is time to go
    * This refers to an opportune moment, not necessarily the first instance of an event.

5. **sense_key=time%1:03:00::** | definition=the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past
    * This is the abstract concept of time itself (chronology).

6. **sense_key=time%1:11:01::** | definition=a person's experience on a particular occasion | examples=he had a time holding back the tears; they had a good time together
    * This refers to the quality of an experience (e.g., "a good time"), not the occurrence of an event.

7. **sense_key=time%1:28:03::** | definition=a reading of a point in time as given by a clock | synonyms=clock time | examples=do you know what time it is?; the time is 10 o'clock
    * This refers to clock time.

8. **sense_key=time%1:28:04::** | definition=the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event | synonyms=fourth dimension
    * This is a physics/mathematics concept.

9. **sense_key=time%1:07:01::** | definition=rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration | synonyms=meter, metre
    * This refers to musical or metrical rhythm.

10. **sense_key=time%1:28:01::** | definition=the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned | synonyms=prison term, sentence | examples=he served a prison term of 15 months; his sentence was 5 to 10 years
    * This refers to a specific legal duration.

The phrase "for the first time in the season" clearly indicates a specific, countable occasion. Sense 1, "an instance or single occasion for some event," is the best fit.

The corresponding sense index is 1.

2.  **Determine the meaning of 'season' in context:** The context is a basketball game (references to "three-pointers," "quarter," "fouling out," "scoreboard," "team"). The phrase "victory escaped Tel Aviv for the first time in the season" implies a duration of time during which the team has been competing.
3.  **Examine the candidate senses:**
    *   **Sense 1 (season%1:28:02):** "a period of the year marked by special events or activities in some field." Examples: "he celebrated his 10th season with the ballet company; she always looked forward to the avocado season." This sense relates to a competitive or activity period (like a sports season or growing season).
    *   **Sense 2 (season%1:28:00):** "one of the natural periods into which the year is divided by the equinoxes and solstices or atmospheric conditions." Synonyms: "time of year." Examples: "the regular sequence of the seasons." This refers to Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter.
    *   **Sense 3 (season%1:28:01):** "a recurrent time marked by major holidays." Examples: "it was the Christmas season." This refers to holiday periods.
4.  **Match the context to the senses:**
    *   The context is about a sports team's performance over a period of competition.
    *   Sense 2 (natural time of year) is incorrect.
    *   Sense 3 (holiday period) is incorrect.
    *   Sense 1 (a period of activity/competition) fits perfectly, as a sports team plays throughout a "season." The example "he celebrated his 10th season with the ballet company" strongly aligns with the context of competitive sports.
5.  **Select the best sense index:** Sense 1 is the best fit.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) for the target phrase "Wall Street" based on the provided context.

Context: "Wall Street closes without momentum, slowed by a strengthening dollar The New York Stock Exchange closed with no particular heading on Friday, in a market torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar: the Dow Jones gained 0.63% but the NASDAQ dropped 0.03%."

Target phrase: "Wall Street" (implied, as it's the target lemma/surface form).

Candidate Senses:
1. `wall_street%1:15:00`: a street in lower Manhattan where the New York Stock Exchange is located; symbol of American finance | synonyms=Wall St. (Geographical/Specific location)
2. `wall_street%1:14:00`: used to allude to the securities industry of the United States | synonyms=the Street (Metonymic/Industry concept)

Analysis of the context:
The context discusses:
* "Wall Street closes without momentum"
* "strengthening dollar"
* "The New York Stock Exchange closed..."
* "Dow Jones gained 0.63% but the NASDAQ dropped 0.03%."

The discussion is entirely about financial markets, stock exchanges, indices (Dow Jones, NASDAQ), and economic indicators (strengthening dollar, momentum).

Comparing the senses:
Sense 1 focuses on the physical location ("a street in lower Manhattan"). While Wall Street is the location, the context is discussing the *action* of the market closing and the *performance* of the indices, not the physical street itself.
Sense 2 focuses on the metonymic use ("used to allude to the securities industry of the United States"). This perfectly matches the context, where "Wall Street closes" is a common idiom referring to the state of the financial market/securities industry.

Conclusion: Sense 2 is the best fit because the context is discussing the abstract concept and performance of the financial market, not the physical street.

The instructions require returning a JSON object with the sense index.
Sense 1 corresponds to index 1.
Sense 2 corresponds to index 2.

I must choose index 2.

Thinking Process:

1.  **Analyze the Target Word and Context:**
    *   Target Lemma: dollar
    *   Target Surface Form: dollar
    *   Context: "Wall Street closes without momentum, slowed by a strengthening <t>dollar</t> The New York Stock Exchange closed with no particular heading on Friday, in a market torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar: the Dow Jones gained 0.63% but the NASDAQ dropped 0.03%."

2.  **Analyze the Contextual Clues:**
    *   The context is financial/economic (Wall Street, New York Stock Exchange, Dow Jones, NASDAQ, market).
    *   The specific phrase is "a strengthening dollar."
    *   In finance, "strengthening" refers to the appreciation of a currency relative to others.

3.  **Evaluate Candidate Senses:**

    *   **sense_key=dollar%1:23:00:** | definition=the basic monetary unit in many countries; equal to 100 cents.
        *   *Relevance:* This is the general definition of a currency unit. "Strengthening dollar" fits perfectly with the concept of a currency unit appreciating in value.

    *   **sense_key=dollar%1:21:00:** | definition=a piece of paper money worth one dollar | synonyms=dollar bill, one dollar bill, buck, clam.
        *   *Relevance:* This refers to a specific denomination (a bill). While technically a unit of currency, the context ("strengthening dollar" in a market report) refers to the *value* of the currency, not a physical piece of paper money.

    *   **sense_key=dollar%1:21:01:** | definition=a United States coin worth one dollar | examples=the dollar coin has never been popular in the United States.
        *   *Relevance:* This refers to a specific denomination (a coin). Again, the context is about the overall currency strength, not a specific coin.

    *   **sense_key=dollar%1:10:00:** | definition=a symbol of commercialism or greed | synonyms=dollar mark, dollar sign.
        *   *Relevance:* This is metaphorical/abstract. The context is literal economic reporting ("strengthening dollar").

4.  **Select the Best Sense:**
    *   The phrase "strengthening dollar" in a stock market context refers to the appreciation of the US currency as a unit of exchange.
    *   Sense %1:23:00 ("the basic monetary unit in many countries") is the most accurate and general definition that encompasses the concept of currency strength/weakness.

5.  **Final Check:**
    *   Context: Financial market, "strengthening dollar."
    *   Best Sense: General currency unit (sense %1:23:00).
    *   Output Format: JSON object with `sense_index`. (The index is 1 for this sense).

Target lemma: heading
Target surface form: heading
Context:
Wall Street closes without momentum, slowed by a strengthening dollar The New York Stock Exchange closed with no particular <t>heading</t> on Friday, in a market torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar: the Dow Jones gained 0.63% but the NASDAQ dropped 0.03%. According to final closing figures, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen by 65.67 points to 10 471.50 points, whereas the NASDAQ, with a technology predominance, fell by 0.55 point to 2 190.31 points.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=heading%1:10:00:: | definition=a line of text serving to indicate what the passage below it is about | synonyms=header, head | examples=the heading seemed to have little to do with the text
2. sense_key=heading%1:15:00:: | definition=the direction or path along which something moves or along which it lies | synonyms=bearing, aim
3. sense_key=heading%1:06:00:: | definition=a horizontal (or nearly horizontal) passageway in a mine | synonyms=drift, gallery | examples=they dug a drift parallel with the vein

Instructions:
1. Choose the single best indexed sense for the target word in context.
2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the target word and context:**
    *   Target word: "heading"
    *   Context: "Wall Street closes without momentum, slowed by a strengthening dollar The New York Stock Exchange closed with no particular <t>heading</t> on Friday, in a market torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar..."
    *   The context is about financial markets (Wall Street, NYSE, Dow Jones, NASDAQ, momentum, dollar). The phrase is "no particular heading on Friday."

2.  **Analyze the candidate senses:**

    *   **Sense 1 (heading%1:10:00):** Definition: "a line of text serving to indicate what the passage below it is about." Synonyms: header, head. Example: "the heading seemed to have little to do with the text."
        *   *Relevance check:* This sense relates to titles or topics. In a financial context, "no particular heading" might mean no clear direction or theme, but the definition itself is about *text*. This seems unlikely to fit the market context.

    *   **Sense 2 (heading%1:15:00):** Definition: "the direction or path along which something moves or along which it lies." Synonyms: bearing, aim. Example: (None provided, but the definition is key).
        *   *Relevance check:* In finance, "momentum" (mentioned earlier in the sentence) refers to the direction and speed of movement. "No particular heading" strongly suggests a lack of clear direction or trend. This fits perfectly with the market context.

    *   **Sense 3 (heading%1:06:00):** Definition: "a horizontal (or nearly horizontal) passageway in a mine." Synonyms: drift, gallery. Example: "they dug a drift parallel with the vein."
        *   *Relevance check:* This is a literal, geological sense. It is completely irrelevant to Wall Street and stock market activity.

3.  **Compare and select the best sense:**
    *   Sense 1 (Text title) - Poor fit.
    *   Sense 2 (Direction/Path/Trend) - Excellent fit. "No particular heading" means no clear trend or direction of movement in the market.
    *   Sense 3 (Mine passage) - No fit.

4.  **Final Conclusion:** Sense 2 is the best fit.

5.  **Format the output:** Return the JSON object with the correct sense index. (Sense 2 corresponds to index 2).

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

Context: "Wall Street closes without momentum, slowed by a strengthening dollar The New York Stock Exchange closed with no particular heading on Friday, in a <t>market</t> torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar: the Dow Jones gained 0.63% but the NASDAQ dropped 0.03%."

The context clearly discusses Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, the Dow Jones, and the NASDAQ, which are all related to financial trading and stock exchanges.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=market%1:04:00:: | definition=the world of commercial activity where goods and services are bought and sold | synonyms=marketplace | examples=without competition there would be no market; they were driven from the marketplace (General commercial activity/marketplace)
2. sense_key=market%1:14:00:: | definition=the customers for a particular product or service | examples=before they publish any book they try to determine the size of the market for it (Consumer base)

5. sense_key=market%1:06:01:: | definition=an area in a town where a public mercantile establishment is set up | synonyms=marketplace, mart (Physical market area)

Analysis:
The context mentions "Wall Street," "New York Stock Exchange," "Dow Jones," and "NASDAQ." These are all terms associated with financial markets and stock trading.
The phrase "in a market torn between better than expected indicators... and a strengthening dollar" refers to the state of the financial/stock market.

Sense 4: "the securities markets in the aggregate" (synonyms: securities industry). This perfectly matches the context of Wall Street and stock exchanges.
Sense 1: "the world of commercial activity where goods and services are bought and sold." While related, Sense 4 is much more specific to the financial context provided.
Sense 2, 3, and 5 refer to physical or consumer markets, which is incorrect here.

Therefore, Sense 4 is the best fit.

4. sense_key=indicator%1:27:00:: | definition=(chemistry) a substance that changes color to indicate the presence of some ion or substance; can be used to indicate the completion of a chemical reaction or (in medicine) to test for a particular reaction

Analysis:
The context is about the stock market (Wall Street, New York Stock Exchange, Dow Jones, NASDAQ). The phrase is "better than expected indicators in the United States."
In financial contexts, "indicators" refers to metrics, statistics, or data points that predict or reflect economic health.

Let's evaluate the senses:
1. sense_key=indicator%1:10:00: Definition is "a number or ratio... derived from a series of observed facts; can reveal relative changes as a function of time." Synonyms include "index, index number." This perfectly matches the financial/economic context (e.g., economic indicators, market indices).
2. sense_key=indicator%1:10:01: "a signal for attracting attention." This is too general and doesn't fit the economic data context.
3. sense_key=indicator%1:06:00: "a device for showing the operating condition of some system." This refers to physical gauges or displays (like a dashboard indicator), not abstract economic data.
4. sense_key=indicator%1:27:00: Chemical/medical substance. Irrelevant to the stock market context.

Conclusion: Sense 1 is the correct fit. It refers to economic/market metrics or indices.

The instruction requires returning the JSON object with the sense index (which corresponds to the order of the candidates). Sense 1 is the first candidate.

2. sense_key=united_states%1:14:00:: | definition=the executive and legislative and judicial branches of the federal government of the United States | synonyms=United States government, U.S. government, U.S.

Analysis:
The context discusses "Wall Street," "The New York Stock Exchange," "Dow Jones," "NASDAQ," "market," "indicators," and "strengthening dollar." These terms relate to financial markets and economic performance.

The phrase is: "...in a market torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar..."

Does "United States" refer to the country (Sense 1) or the government/political structure (Sense 2)?

If it referred to the government (Sense 2), the context would likely be discussing policy, legislation, or governmental actions affecting the market.
Since the context is discussing economic indicators and market performance *within* a specific geographical/economic area, "United States" refers to the nation itself.

Sense 1: North American republic... (The country). This fits the context of economic indicators for a nation's market.
Sense 2: The executive and legislative and judicial branches... (The government). This is too narrow and doesn't fit the general economic reporting style here.

Conclusion: Sense 1 is the best fit.

Analysis:
The context discusses Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, the Dow Jones, and the NASDAQ. These are all financial and economic terms. The phrase "a strengthening dollar" refers to the value of the currency.

Let's evaluate the senses:
1. **sense_key=dollar%1:23:00**: "the basic monetary unit in many countries; equal to 100 cents". This fits the concept of a currency whose value can strengthen or weaken.
2. **sense_key=dollar%1:21:00**: "a piece of paper money worth one dollar". This refers to a specific denomination (a bill), not the general currency unit whose value is being discussed in the market context.
3. **sense_key=dollar%1:21:01**: "a United States coin worth one dollar". This refers to a specific denomination (a coin), also too specific.
4. **sense_key=dollar%1:10:00**: "a symbol of commercialism or greed". This is metaphorical and does not fit the technical financial discussion of currency strength.

Conclusion: The context requires the sense of "dollar" as a general unit of currency whose exchange rate or value is changing ("strengthening dollar"). Sense 1 is the best fit.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "figures" (plural of "figure") in the given context.
The context is about the stock market: "According to final closing <t>figures</t>, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen by 65.67 points to 10 471.50 points, whereas the NASDAQ, with a technology predominance, fell by 0.55 point to 2 190.31 points."

The word "figures" here refers to the numerical data or statistics of the market closing.

I need to evaluate the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=figure%1:10:00:: | definition=a diagram or picture illustrating textual material | synonyms=fig

    * Not relevant.
3. sense_key=figure%1:23:00:: | definition=one of the elements that collectively form a system of numeration | synonyms=digit

9. sense_key=figure%1:07:01:: | definition=the property possessed by a sum or total or indefinite quantity of units or individuals | synonyms=number

Revisiting the candidates:
The context uses "final closing figures" to refer to the statistical results of the market day (e.g., the final point totals, the percentage changes).

Sense 7: "an amount of money expressed numerically." This is close, as stock prices are amounts of money, and the results are numerical.
Sense 9: "the property possessed by a sum or total or indefinite quantity of units or individuals." This is about the concept of quantity/number.

In common usage, when discussing market results, "figures" means the numerical data or statistics. Sense 7 focuses specifically on monetary amounts, which is a subset of what "figures" means here (the results include points, percentages, and dollar values).

Let's look closer at the definition of Sense 7: "an amount of money expressed numerically."
The context mentions: "the Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen by 65.67 points to 10 471.50 points". These are numerical amounts.

If I consider the broader meaning of "figures" as statistics/data, Sense 7 is the closest available option that captures the numerical/quantitative nature of the data being reported, even if it specifies "amount of money." In financial contexts, "figures" almost always refers to numerical data points.

Comparing 7 and 9:
9 is about the abstract concept of 'number' or 'quantity'.
7 is about the concrete presentation of 'numerical amounts' (often monetary).

Since the context is reporting specific, quantifiable results (10 471.50 points, 65.67 points), Sense 7, which deals with numerical amounts, is the most appropriate fit among the choices provided, representing the statistical data.

I will select sense 7.

Target lemma: predominance
Target surface form: predominance
Context:
Wall Street closes without momentum, slowed by a strengthening dollar The New York Stock Exchange closed with no particular heading on Friday, in a market torn between better than expected indicators in the United States and a strengthening dollar: the Dow Jones gained 0.63% but the NASDAQ dropped 0.03%. According to final closing figures, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen by 65.67 points to 10 471.50 points, whereas the NASDAQ, with a technology <t>predominance</t>, fell by 0.55 point to 2 190.31 points.

Thinking Process:

1.  **Analyze the Target Word and Context:**
    *   Target word: "predominance"
    *   Context sentence: "whereas the NASDAQ, with a technology <t>predominance</t>, fell by 0.55 point to 2 190.31 points."
    *   Surrounding context: The text discusses stock market performance (Dow Jones, NASDAQ, S&P 500). The NASDAQ is mentioned in contrast to the Dow Jones, and the phrase "with a technology predominance" describes the NASDAQ.

2.  **Analyze the Candidate Senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:**
        *   Gloss: the state of being predominant over others
        *   Synonyms: predomination, prepotency
        *   *Interpretation:* This suggests dominance or superiority in a competitive sense (e.g., one company dominating the market, or one factor being superior to others).

    *   **Sense 2:**
        *   Gloss: the quality of being more noticeable than anything else
        *   Synonyms: predomination
        *   Example: "the predomination of blues gave the painting a quiet tone"
        *   *Interpretation:* This relates to visual or sensory prominence (e.g., the color blue being the most noticeable color).

3.  **Map Context to Senses:**

    *   The context is financial/market-related. The NASDAQ is characterized by "technology predominance."
    *   Does "technology predominance" mean technology is *more noticeable* than other factors (Sense 2)? While possible, in a market context, "predominance" usually refers to the *weight* or *influence* of a sector.
    *   Does "technology predominance" mean technology is *predominant over others* (Sense 1)? Yes. It means that technology stocks/sectors hold the majority weight, influence, or are the primary driving force compared to other sectors (like industrials or financials).

4.  **Refine Selection:**
    *   Sense 1 ("the state of being predominant over others") fits the economic context much better than Sense 2 ("the quality of being more noticeable than anything else," which is strongly tied to sensory perception, as shown in the painting example).
    *   The NASDAQ is known for its heavy weighting in technology stocks; thus, technology is predominant in its composition.

5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the best fit.

6.  **Format Output:** (The instructions require returning only a JSON object with the sense index, but since the provided candidates are numbered 1 and 2, and the prompt structure implies a single choice, I must select the index corresponding to Sense 1.)

    *Self-Correction/Review:* The prompt asks me to choose the single best indexed sense. Sense 1 is the best fit. I will use the index corresponding to Sense 1. (Assuming the provided list starts indexing at 1).

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

Context: "Frankly, the <t>market</t> is very calm, observes Mace Blicksilver of Marblehead Asset Management. It remains within a narrow margin; trading volumes have become very weak, and I think that this will remain the case until the end of the year."

The context discusses financial observations ("Mace Blicksilver of Marblehead Asset Management"), "calm" conditions, "narrow margin," and "trading volumes." This strongly suggests a financial or stock market context.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=market%1:04:00:: | definition=the world of commercial activity where goods and services are bought and sold | synonyms=marketplace | examples=without competition there would be no market; they were driven from the marketplace (General commercial activity/marketplace)
2. sense_key=market%1:14:00:: | definition=the customers for a particular product or service | examples=before they publish any book they try to determine the size of the market for it (Consumer base/demand)
3. sense_key=market%1:06:00:: | definition=a marketplace where groceries are sold | synonyms=grocery store, grocery, food market | examples=the grocery store included a meat market (Specific physical location/grocery)
4. sense_key=market%1:14:01:: | definition=the securities markets in the aggregate | synonyms=securities industry | examples=the market always frustrates the small investor (Financial/stock market)
5. sense_key=market%1:06:01:: | definition=an area in a town where a public mercantile establishment is set up | synonyms=marketplace, mart (Physical location/town market)

Analysis:
The surrounding text mentions "Marblehead Asset Management," "trading volumes," and refers to the overall state of financial activity ("calm," "narrow margin").
Sense 4, "the securities markets in the aggregate," perfectly matches this financial context.
Sense 1 is too general (commercial activity).
Sense 2 refers to customers/demand, which is not the primary meaning here.
Sense 3 and 5 refer to physical, local markets (groceries/town square), which is inconsistent with the financial jargon used.

Therefore, sense 4 is the best fit.
