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

Sentence: It shows the outlines for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 <t>levels</t>, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent.

Senses:
1. definition=a position on a scale of intensity or amount or quality | examples=a moderate grade of intelligence
2. definition=a relative position or degree of value in a graded group | examples=lumber of the highest grade
3. definition=a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process | examples=a remarkable degree of frankness
4. definition=height above ground | examples=the water reached ankle level
5. definition=indicator that establishes the horizontal when a bubble is centered in a tube of liquid
6. definition=a flat surface at right angles to a plumb line | examples=park the car on the level
7. definition=an abstract place usually conceived as having depth | examples=a good actor communicates on several levels
8. definition=a structure consisting of a room or set of rooms at a single position along a vertical scale | examples=what level is the office on?

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "It shows the outlines for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 <t>levels</t>, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent."
2.  **Identify the target word:** "levels" (referring to emissions).
3.  **Determine the meaning of "levels" in this context:** The sentence is discussing the *amount* or *quantity* of emissions (a percentage reduction compared to a previous amount).
4.  **Examine the senses provided:**
    *   1. definition=a position on a scale of intensity or amount or quality | examples=a moderate grade of intelligence (Matches "amount" or "intensity").
    *   2. definition=a relative position or degree of value in a graded group | examples=lumber of the highest grade (Focuses on ranking/grading).
    *   3. definition=a specific identifiable position in a continuum or series or especially in a process | examples=a remarkable degree of frankness (Focuses on a specific point in a process).
    *   4. definition=height above ground (Physical height).
    *   5. definition=indicator that establishes the horizontal (Tool/device).
    *   6. definition=a flat surface at right angles to a plumb line (Physical surface).
    *   7. definition=an abstract place usually conceived as having depth (Abstract location).
    *   8. definition=a structure consisting of a room or set of rooms at a single position along a vertical scale (Building floor).
5.  **Match the meaning to the best sense:** The emissions are measured as a quantity/amount (25 to 45 percent). Sense 1, "a position on a scale of intensity or amount or quality," is the most appropriate fit. The "level" here refers to the *level of emissions* (the amount).
6.  **Select the corresponding number:** Sense 1.

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

Sentence: Together, the <t>countries</t> would cut emissions between 50 and 95 percent by 2050.

Senses:
1. definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | examples=the state has elected a new president
2. definition=the territory occupied by a nation | examples=he returned to the land of his birth
3. definition=the people who live in a nation or country | examples=a statement that sums up the nation's mood
4. definition=an area outside of cities and towns | examples=his poetry celebrated the slower pace of life in the country
5. definition=a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography) | examples=it was a mountainous area

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "country" (or "countries," as it appears in the sentence) is used in the given sentence. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Together, the <t>countries</t> would cut emissions between 50 and 95 percent by 2050."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "countries" in context:** The sentence discusses collective action ("Together") by multiple political entities ("countries") regarding a global issue (cutting emissions). This implies sovereign states or nations.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **1. definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | examples=the state has elected a new president:** This matches the concept of a sovereign nation-state (e.g., France, Germany, China). This is the most likely fit.
    *   **2. definition=the territory occupied by a nation | examples=he returned to the land of his birth:** This refers to the physical landmass (geographical territory). While related, the sentence is about the *actors* (the political bodies), not the land itself.
    *   **3. definition=the people who live in a nation or country | examples=a statement that sums up the nation's mood:** This refers to the inhabitants (the populace). The sentence refers to the governing entities, not the people.
    *   **4. definition=an area outside of cities and towns | examples=his poetry celebrated the slower pace of life in the country:** This refers to rural areas (the countryside). This is clearly incorrect.
    *   **5. definition=a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography) | examples=it was a mountainous area:** This refers to a region (e.g., the Middle East, the Alps). While countries are regions, Sense 1 is a much more precise fit for the political context of "cutting emissions."

5.  **Conclusion:** The term "countries" refers to sovereign political entities (nation-states). This aligns perfectly with Sense 1.

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

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Together, the countries would cut <t>emissions</t> between 50 and 95 percent by 2050."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "emissions" in context:** In the context of countries, percentages, and the year 2050, "emissions" refers to the release of gases (like greenhouse gases, CO2) into the atmosphere.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   1. definition=the act of emitting; causing to flow forth (This is the *process*, not the substance/quantity being cut.)
    *   2. definition=a substance that is emitted or released (This fits perfectly. The countries are cutting the *substance* or the *quantity* of released gases.)
    *   3. definition=the release of electrons from parent atoms (This is a highly specific scientific/physics definition, irrelevant to climate policy.)
    *   4. definition=any of several bodily processes by which substances go out of the body | examples=the discharge of pus (This is a biological/medical definition, irrelevant to climate policy.)
    *   5. definition=the occurrence of a flow of water (as from a pipe) (This is a specific fluid dynamics definition, irrelevant to climate policy.)

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

Sentence: The European Union gave the talks a boost as well on Friday by pledging to provide $3.6 billion a <t>year</t> over the next three years to help poorer countries adapt to the impact of climate change -- from coping with flood and drought to avoiding deforestation.

Senses:
1. definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old
2. definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year
3. definition=the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days
4. definition=a body of students who graduate together | examples=the class of '97

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

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "The European Union gave the talks a boost as well on Friday by pledging to provide $3.6 billion a <t>year</t> over the next three years to help poorer countries adapt to the impact of climate change..."

3.  **Analyze the usage of "year" in the sentence:** The phrase is "$3.6 billion a year." This indicates a recurring payment or rate of payment over a period of time.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old." (General duration/age). While technically correct that a year is 365 days, the context here is a *rate* or *frequency* of payment, not a measure of age or simple duration.
    *   **Sense 2:** "a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year." (Specific, defined period for an activity). This doesn't fit the context of a financial rate.
    *   **Sense 3:** "the period of time that it takes for a planet... to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days." (Astronomical definition). This is clearly incorrect.
    *   **Sense 4:** "a body of students who graduate together | examples=the class of '97." (Group of students). This is clearly incorrect.

5.  **Re-evaluate the context and senses (Self-Correction/Refinement):**
    *   The usage "a year" in "$3.6 billion a year" refers to a standard unit of time (12 months).
    *   Sense 1: "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old." This is the most general and fundamental definition of a year. When used in the context of a rate ("per year"), it is functioning as the standard unit of time defined by the solar cycle (365/366 days).

6.  **Conclusion:** Although the sentence uses "year" in a financial/rate context, the underlying meaning relies on the standard definition of a year as a period of 365/366 days. Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct fit.

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

    *   The duration is a standard, calendar-based period.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | examples=she is 4 years old.
        *   *Match?* Yes. "Three years" refers to three standard calendar periods of 365/366 days. This is the most general and applicable definition for a duration of time.

    *   **Sense 2:** definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year.
        *   *Match?* No. The context is general funding duration, not a specific structured activity like a school or fiscal year (though it could potentially be a fiscal year, Sense 1 is the fundamental definition being used).

(This refers to a region, but often less formal than a recognized nation-state.)

5.  **Match the context to the senses:**
    *   When discussing international aid, climate change adaptation, and the EU, "countries" refers to sovereign political entities (nations/states).
    *   Sense 1 ("a politically organized body of people under a single government") is the most accurate fit for the political/geopolitical context of international aid and climate change policy.
    *   Sense 2 (territory) is too narrow; the aid is given to the *political entity*, not just the land itself.

3.  **Analyze the context of "drought":** "Drought" is listed alongside "flood" as an "impact of climate change" that poorer countries need to "adapt to."

4.  **Analyze the senses provided:**
    *   Sense 1: definition=a shortage of rainfall | examples=farmers most affected by the drought hope that there may yet be sufficient rain early in the growing season. (Focuses on the *lack* of rain, a specific meteorological event.)
    *   Sense 2: definition=a prolonged shortage | examples=when England defeated Pakistan it ended a ten-year drought. (Focuses on the *duration* of the shortage, often used in a more abstract or historical sense.)

5.  **Determine the best fit:**
    *   When discussing climate change impacts (like floods and droughts), the most common and direct meaning of "drought" is the lack of sufficient precipitation (a shortage of rainfall).
    *   Sense 1 ("a shortage of rainfall") perfectly matches this usage.
    *   Sense 2 ("a prolonged shortage") is too broad and the example provided (a ten-year drought ending) is not relevant to the climate change/adaptation context.

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a person of a particular character or nature | examples=what sort of person is he? (Incorrect. "Verbal fireworks" are not people.)
    *   **Sense 4:** definition=an operation that segregates items into groups according to a specified criterion | examples=the bottleneck in mail delivery is the process of sorting. (Incorrect. This refers to the action of sorting, not the category.)

    *   The phrase "the same sort of verbal fireworks" means "the same *kind* or *type* of verbal fireworks."
    *   Sense 1 ("a category of things distinguished by some common characteristic or quality") perfectly captures the meaning of "kind" or "type."
    *   Sense 2 ("an approximate definition or example") usually implies "not exactly X, but close to X." While "sort of" can sometimes mean approximation, in this context ("the same sort of..."), it is defining the category being referenced.
5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the most accurate fit.

2. definition=hours or days of work in a calendar week | examples=they worked a 40-hour week
3. definition=a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "week" is used in the provided sentence. The output must be only the number.
2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "Still, Friday featured the same sort of verbal fireworks that have dominated the talks for the past <t>week</t>."
3.  **Analyze the context of "week":** The word "week" refers to the duration of the "talks" (a period of time). The phrase "for the past week" indicates a recent, continuous period of time.
4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=any period of seven consecutive days | examples=it rained for a week. (Matches the general concept of a duration of seven days.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=hours or days of work in a calendar week | examples=they worked a 40-hour week. (Refers to work schedules/quantities, not a duration of events.)
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday. (This is a specific calendar definition, but Sense 1 is the broader, more accurate fit for the usage "for the past week," which simply means the last seven days, regardless of the starting day.)
5.  **Determine the best fit:** The usage "for the past week" refers to a general span of seven days. Sense 1 ("any period of seven consecutive days") is the most appropriate and general definition for this usage.

3. definition=a brief stanza concluding certain forms of poetry

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

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "U.S. special climate <t>envoy</t> Todd Stern rejected language requiring binding cuts of greenhouse-gas emissions for industrialized countries compared with voluntary ones by major emerging economies if they were not funded by the developed world."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "envoy" in context:**
    *   "U.S. special climate envoy Todd Stern"
    *   Todd Stern is a person who holds a specific role related to climate issues for the U.S.
    *   The role implies he is representing the U.S. government or interests in climate negotiations/discussions.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   Sense 1: "a diplomat having less authority than an ambassador." (This fits the general idea of a diplomatic representative, but let's check the others.)
    *   Sense 2: "someone sent on a mission to represent the interests of someone else." (This perfectly describes a representative or diplomat acting on behalf of a country/group.)
    *   Sense 3: "a brief stanza concluding certain forms of poetry." (This is clearly incorrect; the context is politics/climate.)

5.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2:**
    *   Sense 2 ("someone sent on a mission to represent the interests of someone else") is the most comprehensive and accurate definition for a high-level diplomatic representative like a "special climate envoy."
    *   Sense 1 ("a diplomat having less authority than an ambassador") is a specific type of envoy, but Sense 2 captures the core function (representation/mission) which is what the title implies. In modern usage, "envoy" often means a representative sent for a specific purpose, aligning strongly with Sense 2.

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 2 is the correct meaning.

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

Sentence: U.S. special climate envoy Todd Stern rejected language requiring binding cuts of greenhouse-gas <t>emissions</t> for industrialized countries compared with voluntary ones by major emerging economies if they were not funded by the developed world.

Senses:
1. definition=the act of emitting; causing to flow forth
2. definition=a substance that is emitted or released
3. definition=the release of electrons from parent atoms
4. definition=any of several bodily processes by which substances go out of the body | examples=the discharge of pus
5. definition=the occurrence of a flow of water (as from a pipe)

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

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "U.S. special climate envoy Todd Stern rejected language requiring binding cuts of greenhouse-gas <t>emissions</t> for industrialized countries compared with voluntary ones by major emerging economies if they were not funded by the developed world."

3.  **Analyze the target word in context:** "greenhouse-gas emissions."
    *   Greenhouse gases (like CO2, methane) are substances.
    *   "Emissions" here refers to the output or release of these gases into the atmosphere.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **1. definition=the act of emitting; causing to flow forth:** This is the *process* (the act). While related, the context usually refers to the *thing* being emitted (the gases themselves, or the quantity of the gases).
    *   **2. definition=a substance that is emitted or released:** This refers to the *thing* (the substance/gas) that is released. In the phrase "greenhouse-gas emissions," "emissions" is often used as a collective noun referring to the *output* or *quantity* of the substance. However, if we look closely at the options, this sense defines "emission" as a *substance*. While the gases are substances, the word "emissions" itself usually refers to the *release* or *output* of those substances.
    *   **3. definition=the release of electrons from parent atoms:** This is a highly specific scientific context (atomic physics) and is irrelevant here.
    *   **4. definition=any of several bodily processes by which substances go out of the body | examples=the discharge of pus:** This is a biological/medical context and is irrelevant here.
    *   **5. definition=the occurrence of a flow of water (as from a pipe):** This is a plumbing/hydrological context and is irrelevant here.

5.  **Re-evaluate Senses 1 and 2 based on common usage:**
    *   When we say "CO2 emissions," we are referring to the *output* or *quantity* of CO2.
    *   Sense 1 ("the act of emitting") describes the action.
    *   Sense 2 ("a substance that is emitted or released") describes the *thing* itself.

    *Self-Correction/Refinement:* In technical and environmental contexts, "emissions" is often used as a count noun referring to the *output* or *release* (a quantity or event), which aligns more closely with the *act* or *process* (Sense 1), even if the result is a substance.

    *Let's check the typical dictionary definition for "emissions" in environmental science.* It means the release of gases or particles. This is the *act* or *process* of release.

    *Comparing 1 and 2 again:*
    *   If the sentence were: "The *emission* was toxic." (Referring to the substance). -> Sense 2.
    *   If the sentence were: "The *emissions* from the factory were regulated." (Referring to the total output/release). -> Sense 1 (the act/process of flow forth).

    Given the context ("binding cuts of greenhouse-gas emissions"), the focus is on the *quantity* of the release, which is the *act* or *process* of flowing forth.

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 ("the act of emitting; causing to flow forth") is the most accurate fit for "greenhouse-gas emissions" in this environmental policy context.

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

3.  **Analyze the Target Word and Context:**
    *   Target word: "ones" (plural of "one").
    *   Context: "...compared with voluntary *ones* by major emerging economies..."
    *   What does "ones" refer back to? It refers to "binding cuts of greenhouse-gas emissions."
    *   The structure is: [binding cuts] compared with voluntary [cuts].

4.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   Sense 1: definition=the smallest whole number or a numeral representing this number | examples=he has the one but will need a two and three to go with it (Focuses on the numerical value '1').

5.  **Determine the Usage:**
    *   In the sentence, "ones" is replacing "cuts of greenhouse-gas emissions." It is standing in for a *thing* (the cuts).
    *   It is not referring to the number one.

6.  **Match to Sense:**

    *   3. definition=a change of position that does not entail a change of location | examples=the reflex motion of his eyebrows revealed his surprise. (Irrelevant - not about physical position.)
    *   4. definition=the act of changing location from one place to another | examples=police controlled the motion of the crowd. (Irrelevant - not about physical location change.)
    *   5. definition=(game) a player's turn to take some action permitted by the rules of the game. (Possible, but the context is political/diplomatic, not a game.)
4.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 1, "the act of deciding to do something," best captures the meaning of a political or diplomatic "move" (a strategic action or policy decision).
5.  **Final check:** "The move (policy action) signaled..." This fits Sense 1.

3.  **Determine the context of the target word:** The sentence discusses international relations, negotiations, and actions taken by countries (the US and developing countries). The phrase "do a deal" implies reaching an agreement or making a pact.
4.  **Examine the senses provided:**
    *   1. buying or selling (transaction) - Possible, but usually refers to a specific purchase.
    *   2. an agreement between parties (usually arrived at after discussion) fixing obligations of each - This perfectly matches the context of international negotiations ("The US is not going to make an agreement without X").
    *   3. a large number or amount or extent (batch) - Incorrect.
    *   4. a plank of softwood (wood) - Incorrect.
    *   5. wood that is easy to saw (wood) - Incorrect.

    *   8. the act of distributing playing cards (cards) - Incorrect.
    *   9. the act of apportioning or distributing something (distribution) - Incorrect.
5.  **Match the context to the best sense:** The context is high-level political negotiation and agreement. Sense 2 ("an agreement between parties (usually arrived at after discussion) fixing obligations of each") is the correct fit.
6.  **Return the number:** 2.

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

Sentence: The United States is not going to do a deal without the major developing countries stepping up and taking action, said Stern, who also complained that the <t>text</t> did not do enough to make sure the cuts could be verified by outside observers.

Senses:
1. definition=the words of something written | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text
2. definition=a passage from the Bible that is used as the subject of a sermon | examples=the preacher chose a text from Psalms to introduce his sermon
3. definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition
4. definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "The United States is not going to do a deal without the major developing countries stepping up and taking action, said Stern, who also complained that the <t>text</t> did not do enough to make sure the cuts could be verified by outside observers."
2.  **Identify the target word:** `<t>text</t>`.
3.  **Analyze the context of the target word:** The complaint is that "the text did not do enough to make sure the cuts could be verified by outside observers."
4.  **Determine what "text" refers to in this context:** "Cuts" (likely referring to budget cuts, military cuts, or policy cuts) need to be "verified by outside observers." Verification requires documentation, rules, or a written agreement/document detailing the cuts.
5.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "the words of something written." (Plausible, but often too general. Does the *words* verify the cuts, or does the *document*?)
    *   **Sense 2:** "a passage from the Bible..." (Irrelevant. The context is international policy/cuts.)
    *   **Sense 3:** "a book prepared for use in schools or colleges." (Irrelevant. The context is policy/verification, not education.)
    *   **Sense 4:** "the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.)." (This refers to the core content of a document, agreement, or report. If the cuts are detailed in a document, the *main body* of that document is what observers would check for verification.)
6.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 4:**
    *   If the cuts are detailed in a formal agreement or policy document, the "text" that needs to be verified is the *content* of that document.
    *   Sense 4 ("the main body of a written work") fits perfectly when discussing the substance of a formal agreement or policy document that needs external verification.
    *   Sense 1 ("the words of something written") is technically true, but Sense 4 is a more precise fit for the formal, substantive nature of a document detailing "cuts" that must be "verified."

7.  **Conclusion:** The "text" refers to the substance of the agreement or policy document detailing the cuts. This aligns best with Sense 4.

    *   19. the act of reducing the amount or number (This is related to budget cuts, but the context here is *text* verification, not budget reduction.)
    *   20. an unexcused absence (No)

3.  **Analyze the context of "week":** The phrase is "earlier in the week." This refers to a point in time within a standard period of seven days.

4.  **Analyze the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=any period of seven consecutive days | examples=it rained for a week. (This is a general duration.)

    *   Sense 1 (any period of seven consecutive days) is the most general and accurate fit for referring to a time frame within a standard calendar week.
    *   Sense 3 (starting on Sunday) is a specific type of calendar week. While the week in the sentence *is* a calendar week, the phrase "earlier in the week" doesn't necessarily imply the Sunday start, and Sense 1 covers the general concept of the time frame being a seven-day period.

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the most appropriate and general definition for "earlier in the week."

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

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**

    *   7. definition=the concerns of this life as distinguished from heaven and the afterlife | examples=they consider the church to be independent of the world (Secular life/temporal existence.)
    *   8. definition=all of the living human inhabitants of the earth | examples=all the world loves a lover (General population.)

3. definition=an open clash between two opposing groups (or individuals); --Thomas Paine | examples=the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph

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

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "The current <t>battle</t> is as much about saving individual economies as saving the planet, with China and United States feuding over their respective obligations while poorer nations insist that the world's two dozen most influential countries are ignoring the scientific imperative to take bolder action."

3.  **Determine the context of "battle":** In this sentence, "battle" refers to a large-scale struggle or conflict concerning global economic and environmental policy (saving economies vs. saving the planet; China vs. US obligations). It is not a literal military engagement.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=a hostile meeting of opposing military forces in the course of a war | examples=Grant won a decisive victory in the battle of Chickamauga.
        *   *Fit?* No. The context is economic/political, not military.

    *   **Sense 2:** definition=an energetic attempt to achieve something | examples=getting through the crowd was a real struggle.
        *   *Fit?* Plausible. The global effort to save economies/planet is an "energetic attempt."

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=an open clash between two opposing groups (or individuals); --Thomas Paine | examples=the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph.
        *   *Fit?* Very strong. The sentence explicitly mentions "China and United States feuding over their respective obligations," which is a clear "open clash between two opposing groups." The overall global effort is also a clash of interests.

5.  **Compare Sense 2 and Sense 3:**
    *   Sense 2 ("energetic attempt") is broad and could apply to any difficult project.
    *   Sense 3 ("open clash between two opposing groups") specifically captures the dynamic described in the sentence (China vs. US, differing national interests, "feuding"). The conflict is not just an "attempt," it is a *clash* of opposing forces/ideologies.

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 3 is the most accurate fit for the political/economic conflict described.

7.  **Final Output Generation:** Return only the number 3.
