reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Colon, lung and breast cancers are the most <t>common</t> and lethal forms of the disease, collectively killing almost 200,000 Americans a year."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "common" in context:** The sentence is discussing types of cancer. It states that these specific types (colon, lung, breast) are the *most frequent* or *most frequently encountered* among the forms of the disease.
3.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**
    *   1. belonging to a community as a whole (Public/Community ownership) -> Incorrect.
    *   2. having no special distinction or quality; widely known or commonly encountered; average or ordinary or usual (General frequency/ordinariness) -> Plausible.
    *   3. common to or shared by two or more parties (Shared attribute) -> Incorrect.
    *   4. commonly encountered (Frequency/familiarity) -> Highly plausible.
    *   5. being or characteristic of or appropriate to everyday language (Language usage) -> Incorrect.
    *   6. of or associated with the great masses of people (Masses/Population) -> Plausible, but often overlaps with 2 and 4.
    *   7. of low or inferior quality or value (Inferiority) -> Incorrect.

    *   9. to be expected; standard (Standard/Expected) -> Less likely than frequency.
4.  **Compare the best fits (2, 4, 6):**
    *   The cancers are *frequent* or *prevalent*.
    *   Sense 4 ("commonly encountered") directly addresses frequency and prevalence.
    *   Sense 2 ("widely known or commonly encountered; average or ordinary or usual") also fits, emphasizing the high frequency.
    *   Sense 6 ("of or associated with the great masses of people") is too broad; the focus is on the *forms* of the disease, not the people who have them, although the frequency implies a large number of people.
5.  **Select the most precise fit:** Sense 4, "commonly encountered," is the most direct and precise way to describe the high frequency of these cancer types. Sense 2 is also very strong, but Sense 4 is a more specific descriptor of the meaning required here (prevalence/frequency).

6.  **Final check:** "Colon, lung and breast cancers are the most commonly encountered and lethal forms..." This makes perfect sense. (Sense 4).

16. definition=a mold for setting concrete | examples=they built elaborate forms for pouring the foundation

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Colon, lung and breast cancers are the most common and lethal <t>forms</t> of the disease, collectively killing almost 200,000 Americans a year."
2.  **Identify the target word:** "forms" (plural of form).
3.  **Determine the meaning of "forms" in context:** The sentence is discussing different types or manifestations of a disease (cancer). Colon cancer, lung cancer, and breast cancer are distinct types of the general disease.
4.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**

    *   1. Phonological/orthographic sound/appearance of a word. (No, it's not about spelling or sound.)
    *   2. A category of things distinguished by some common characteristic or quality. (Yes. Colon, lung, and breast cancers are categories/types of the disease.)
    *   3. A perceptual structure. (No, not about how something is perceived visually or musically.)
    *   4. Any spatial attributes (outline). (No, not about shape in space.)
    *   5. Alternative names for the body of a human being. (No.)
    *   6. The spatial arrangement of something. (No.)
    *   7. The visual appearance of something or someone. (No.)
    *   8. A printed document. (No.)
    *   9. (Biology) a group of organisms within a species. (No, this refers to strains/groups, but the context is types of cancer, which fits better with category.)
    *   10. An arrangement of the elements in a composition or discourse. (No, not about structure of an essay or speech.)
    *   11. A particular mode in which something is manifested. (Yes. Cancer manifests in different modes/types.)
    *   12. (Physical chemistry) a distinct state of matter. (No.)
    *   13. A body of students. (No.)
    *   14. An ability to perform well. (No.)
    *   15. A life-size dummy. (No.)
    *   16. A mold for setting concrete. (No.)

5.  **Compare the best candidates (2 and 11):**
    *   Sense 2: "a category of things distinguished by some common characteristic or quality." (Colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer are categories of cancer.)
    *   Sense 11: "a particular mode in which something is manifested." (The disease manifests in different modes: colon, lung, breast.)

6.  **Select the most precise fit:** Both 2 and 11 are very close. However, when listing specific types (Colon, Lung, Breast), the concept of a *category* (Sense 2) is the most direct and common usage. Sense 11 (mode of manifestation) is also correct, but Sense 2 captures the idea of classification (types/categories) perfectly.

7.  **Final check:** "Colon, lung and breast cancers are the most common and lethal *types* (categories) of the disease." This aligns perfectly with Sense 2.

2.  **Identify the target word and its context:** The word is "killing" (present participle of "kill"). The subject is "cancers" (a disease/condition). The object is "Americans" (people). The action is causing these people to die.
3.  **Determine the meaning of "killing" in this context:** The cancers are causing the death of 200,000 Americans annually.
4.  **Review the provided senses of "kill":**
    *   1. cause to die; put to death, usually intentionally or knowingly (Examples: man killed people when he tried to rob a bank) - *This fits the general idea of causing death.*
    *   2. thwart the passage of (Examples: kill a motion) - *Incorrect.*
    *   3. end or extinguish by forceful means (Examples: Stamp out poverty!) - *Incorrect.*
    *   4. be fatal (Examples: cigarettes kill) - *This is a state/property, but the sentence uses "killing" as an active verb describing the action of the cancers.*
    *   5. be the source of great pain for (Examples: These new shoes are killing me!) - *Incorrect (pain, not death).*
    *   6. overwhelm with hilarity, pleasure, or admiration (Examples: he was killing me!) - *Incorrect.*
    *   7. hit with so much force... (Examples: She killed the ball) - *Incorrect.*
    *   8. hit with great force (Examples: He killed the ball) - *Incorrect.*
    *   9. deprive of life (Examples: AIDS has killed thousands in Africa) - *This is a very precise definition of causing death, often used for diseases/conditions.*
    *   10. cause the death of, without intention (Examples: She was killed in the collision...) - *This describes being killed, not the agent (cancers) doing the killing.*
    *   11. drink down entirely (Examples: He downed three martinis...) - *Incorrect.*
    *   12. mark for deletion... (Examples: kill these lines...) - *Incorrect.*

5.  **Compare the best fits (1 and 9):**
    *   Sense 1: "cause to die; put to death, usually intentionally or knowingly." (Cancers are not intentional agents.)
    *   Sense 9: "deprive of life." (Cancers deprive Americans of life.)
6.  **Select the most accurate sense:** Sense 9 ("deprive of life") is the most precise and appropriate definition for a disease (cancers) that causes death. While Sense 1 is generally correct, Sense 9 captures the specific mechanism (deprivation of life) used when discussing diseases.

7.  **Final check:** "Cancers are killing Americans" = "Cancers are depriving Americans of life." (Matches Sense 9).

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

Sentence: Right now about a dozen laboratories, in the U.S., Canada and Britain, are <t>racing</t> to unmask other suspected tumor-suppressing genes.

Senses:
1. definition=move fast | examples=He rushed down the hall to receive his guests
2. definition=compete in a race | examples=he is running the Marathon this year
3. definition=to work as fast as possible towards a goal, sometimes in competition with others | examples=We are racing to find a cure for AIDS
4. definition=cause to move fast or to rush or race | examples=The psychologist raced the rats through a long maze

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Right now about a dozen laboratories, in the U.S., Canada and Britain, are <t>racing</t> to unmask other suspected tumor-suppressing genes."
2.  **Analyze the context of "racing":** The subject is "a dozen laboratories." The action is "racing to unmask other suspected tumor-suppressing genes."
3.  **Determine the meaning of "racing" in this context:** The laboratories are not physically running (like in sense 1 or 2). They are working intensely and quickly towards a specific goal (unmasking genes). This implies a competitive effort to achieve the goal first.
4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   Sense 1 (move fast): Physical movement. (Incorrect - labs don't physically move fast in this sense).
    *   Sense 2 (compete in a race): Usually implies a formal, structured race (e.g., running a marathon). (Less accurate, as the "race" is metaphorical and goal-oriented, not a physical competition).
    *   Sense 3 (to work as fast as possible towards a goal, sometimes in competition with others): This perfectly matches the context. The labs are working quickly ("as fast as possible") towards a goal ("unmask genes"), and the phrase "a dozen laboratories" implies competition ("sometimes in competition with others").
    *   Sense 4 (cause to move fast or to rush or race): This is causative (e.g., "The psychologist raced the rats"). The sentence uses "are racing," which is intransitive (the labs are doing the racing themselves). (Incorrect).
5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 3 is the correct meaning.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "other" (marked with `<t>other</t>`) is used in the provided sentence. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the Sentence:** "Right now about a dozen laboratories, in the U.S., Canada and Britain, are racing to unmask <t>other</t> suspected tumor-suppressing genes."

3.  **Analyze the Context of "other":**
    *   The sentence is about laboratories racing to find genes.
    *   The phrase is "other suspected tumor-suppressing genes."
    *   This implies that some genes are already suspected or known, and the laboratories are looking for *additional*, *different*, or *unidentified* genes that fit the description ("suspected tumor-suppressing genes").

4.  **Evaluate the Senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied; - the White Queen | examples=today isn't any other day
        *   *Application:* Are they looking for genes that are *not* the ones already known/mentioned? Yes. This fits the idea of finding *additional* or *different* genes in the search.

    *   **Sense 2:** definition=recently past | examples=the other evening
        *   *Application:* Does "other genes" mean genes from a recent past time? No. (Temporal sense).

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=belonging to the distant past | examples=the early inhabitants of Europe
        *   *Application:* Does "other genes" mean genes from a distant past? No. (Temporal sense).

    *   **Sense 4:** definition=very unusual; different in character or quality from the normal or expected; - Lance Morrow | examples=a strange, other dimension...where his powers seemed to fail
        *   *Application:* While "other" can mean unusual, here it primarily means *additional* or *different from the set already considered*. Sense 1 captures the idea of "not the same one already mentioned/implied" more precisely than the general "unusual" quality of Sense 4.

5.  **Conclusion:** The use of "other" here means "additional genes, distinct from those already known or being considered." This aligns perfectly with Sense 1.

6.  **Final Output Generation:** Return only the number 1.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Researchers <t>say</t> the inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes, alone or in combination, appears crucial to the development of such scourges as cancer of the brain, the skin, kidney, prostate, and cervix."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "say" in context:** The researchers are presenting a finding, a conclusion, or a belief based on their research. They are reporting what they have concluded or what the evidence suggests.
3.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**
    *   1. express in words (General statement/reporting) - *Possible.*
    *   2. report or maintain (Alleging/stating a claim) - *Very strong fit.*
    *   3. express a supposition (Hypothesizing) - *Possible, but usually less formal than reporting findings.*
    *   4. have or contain a certain wording or form (Textual content) - *No.*
    *   5. give instructions (Command) - *No.*
    *   6. speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way (Manner of speech) - *No.*
    *   7. communicate or express nonverbally (Nonverbal communication) - *No.*
    *   8. utter aloud (Vocalization) - *No.*

    *   10. recite or repeat a fixed text (Chanting/reading) - *No.*
    *   11. indicate (Pointing out/signaling) - *Possible, but usually less formal than reporting research findings.*
4.  **Compare the best fits (1, 2, 9):**
    *   Sense 1 (express in words): Too broad.
    *   Sense 2 (report or maintain): This fits the academic context perfectly. Researchers are reporting their findings/claims.
    *   Sense 9 (state as one's opinion or judgement; declare): This also fits, as the researchers are stating their judgment based on the data.
5.  **Select the most precise sense:** In scientific writing, when researchers "say" something, they are making a claim or reporting a finding. Sense 2 ("report or maintain") is the most formal and accurate description of this function, often used interchangeably with "claim" or "assert." Sense 9 is also correct, but Sense 2 captures the act of presenting evidence/claims more directly.

6.  **Final check:** "Researchers report/maintain that..." matches the sentence structure and meaning. (Sense 2).

Senses:
1. definition=without any others being included or involved | examples=was entirely to blame
2. definition=without anybody else or anything else | examples=the child stayed home alone

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of "alone" is used in the provided sentence. The output must be only the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Researchers say the inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes, <t>alone</t> or in combination, appears crucial to the development of such scourges as cancer of the brain, the skin, kidney, prostate, and cervix."

3.  **Analyze the context of "alone":** "Alone" is modifying "the inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes." It is contrasted with "in combination."

4.  **Evaluate Sense 1:**
    *   Definition: without any others being included or involved.
    *   Example: was entirely to blame.
    *   Application to sentence: Does the inactivation happen without other factors being included or involved? Yes, it refers to the gene inactivation acting by itself, not necessarily with other genes or factors. This fits the meaning of "by itself" or "by itself and nothing else."

5.  **Evaluate Sense 2:**
    *   Definition: without anybody else or anything else (referring to physical isolation/solitude).
    *   Example: the child stayed home alone.
    *   Application to sentence: Does the inactivation mean it is physically isolated? No. It means it is functionally independent or singular in its action.

6.  **Determine the correct sense:** The context is scientific/causal (gene inactivation and cancer development). "Alone" here means "by itself" or "as a single factor," which aligns perfectly with Sense 1 (without any others being included or involved).

7.  **Formulate the final answer:** The correct number is 1.

5. definition=an alliance of people or corporations or countries for a special purpose (formerly to achieve some antisocial end but now for general political or economic purposes)
6. definition=the act of arranging elements into specified groups without regard to order
7. definition=the act of combining things to form a new whole

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Researchers say the inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes, alone or in <t>combination</t>, appears crucial to the development of such scourges as cancer..."
2.  **Determine the context of "combination":** The sentence discusses the inactivation of genes. The phrase "alone or in combination" refers to whether one gene is inactivated, or if two or more genes are inactivated together.
3.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   1. a collection of things that have been combined; an assemblage of separate parts or qualities (Fits: Genes are separate parts/qualities that are combined/act together.)
    *   2. a coordinated sequence of chess moves (Irrelevant.)
    *   3. a sequence of numbers or letters that opens a combination lock (Irrelevant.)
    *   4. a group of people (Irrelevant.)
    *   5. an alliance of people or corporations or countries (Irrelevant.)
    *   6. the act of arranging elements into specified groups without regard to order (Less precise; the focus is on the *result* of the genes acting together, not just the arrangement.)
    *   7. the act of combining things to form a new whole (Fits: The inactivation of genes *combines* to form a new biological state/outcome.)
4.  **Compare Senses 1 and 7:**
    *   Sense 7 ("the act of combining things to form a new whole") focuses on the *process*.
    *   Sense 1 ("a collection of things that have been combined; an assemblage of separate parts or qualities") focuses on the *result* or the *state* (the state of being combined).
    *   In the phrase "alone or in combination," "combination" functions as a noun describing the state or condition where multiple genes are involved. It refers to the *assemblage* of multiple inactivated genes working together.
5.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 1, "a collection of things that have been combined; an assemblage of separate parts or qualities," accurately describes the state of multiple genes acting together. Sense 7 is also plausible but often refers more strongly to the *action* (e.g., "the combination of chemicals"), whereas here, it refers to the *state* (the combination of gene inactivation).

6.  **Final check:** "Inactivation of genes... in combination" means the genes are acting as an assemblage/collection of factors. This matches Sense 1.

1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "evidence" (marked with `<t>evidence</t>`) is used in the provided sentence. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "There is <t>evidence</t> that if people inherit defective versions of these genes, they are especially prone to cancer, perhaps explaining, finally, why some cancers seem to haunt certain families."

3.  **Analyze the context of "evidence":** The word "evidence" here refers to the findings, data, or scientific proof (the fact that inheriting defective genes leads to cancer proneness) that supports the conclusion (that this explains why some cancers haunt certain families).

4.  **Analyze the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=your basis for belief or disbelief; knowledge on which to base belief | examples=the evidence that smoking causes lung cancer is very compelling.
        *   *Match check:* The sentence presents a finding ("people inherit defective versions... they are especially prone to cancer") which serves as the basis for the belief/explanation ("explaining... why some cancers seem to haunt certain families"). This fits the definition of a basis for belief.
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=an indication that makes something evident | examples=his trembling was evidence of his fear.
        *   *Match check:* While the finding *is* an indication, the primary function here is not just a sign (like trembling), but a body of knowledge or data used to support a scientific claim. Sense 1 is a stronger fit for scientific/genetic findings.
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=(law) all the means by which any alleged matter of fact whose truth is investigated at judicial trial is established or disproved.
        *   *Match check:* This is strictly legal evidence. The sentence is about genetics and cancer, not a court trial. (No match).

5.  **Determine the best fit:** The "evidence" in the sentence refers to the scientific data/findings that form the basis for the explanation. This aligns perfectly with Sense 1 (knowledge on which to base belief).

6.  **Final Output Generation:** Return only the number 1.

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

Sentence: There is evidence that if <t>people</t> inherit defective versions of these genes, they are especially prone to cancer, perhaps explaining, finally, why some cancers seem to haunt certain families.

Senses:
1. definition=(plural) any group of human beings (men or women or children) collectively | examples=old people
2. definition=the body of citizens of a state or country | examples=the Spanish people
3. definition=members of a family line | examples=his people have been farmers for generations
4. definition=the common people generally | examples=separate the warriors from the mass

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "There is evidence that if <t>people</t> inherit defective versions of these genes, they are especially prone to cancer, perhaps explaining, finally, why some cancers seem to haunt certain families."
2.  **Analyze the context of "people":** The sentence discusses genetic inheritance ("inherit defective versions of these genes") and susceptibility to cancer ("prone to cancer," "haunt certain families").
3.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=(plural) any group of human beings (men or women or children) collectively | examples=old people. *This fits the context of individuals (or a group of individuals) having genes and being prone to disease.*
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=the body of citizens of a state or country | examples=the Spanish people. *This refers to a nation/political group, which is irrelevant to genetic inheritance and cancer risk.*
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=members of a family line | examples=his people have been farmers for generations. *While related to families, the sentence uses "people" in a broader sense (any human who inherits the gene), not specifically referring to a defined lineage or tribe.*
    *   **Sense 4:** definition=the common people generally | examples=separate the warriors from the mass. *This refers to the general populace or masses, which is too broad and doesn't capture the specific biological/genetic focus of the sentence.*
4.  **Determine the best fit:** The sentence is discussing human beings (individuals) and their biological characteristics (genes, cancer risk). Sense 1, "any group of human beings (men or women or children) collectively," is the most accurate and general sense for this biological discussion.

5.  **Final check:** The sentence is talking about *humans* inheriting genes. Sense 1 covers all humans.

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

Sentence: There is evidence that if people <t>inherit</t> defective versions of these genes, they are especially prone to cancer, perhaps explaining, finally, why some cancers seem to haunt certain families.

Senses:
1. definition=obtain from someone after their death | examples=I inherited a castle from my French grandparents
2. definition=receive from a predecessor | examples=The new chairman inherited many problems from the previous chair
3. definition=receive by genetic transmission | examples=I inherited my good eyesight from my mother

1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to know which numbered sense of the word "inherit" is used in the provided sentence. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "There is evidence that if people <t>inherit</t> defective versions of these genes, they are especially prone to cancer, perhaps explaining, finally, why some cancers seem to haunt certain families."

3.  **Analyze the context of "inherit":** The word "inherit" is applied to "defective versions of these genes." Genes are biological material passed from parent to offspring.

4.  **Analyze the senses:**
    *   Sense 1: obtain from someone after their death (e.g., castle). (Not applicable to genes.)
    *   Sense 2: receive from a predecessor (e.g., problems from a chair). (Not applicable to genes.)
    *   Sense 3: receive by genetic transmission (e.g., eyesight from a mother). (This perfectly matches the context of genes.)

5.  **Determine the correct sense:** Sense 3 is the correct meaning.

6.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.
