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

Context: U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term. The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next <t>week</t>. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term.

Senses:
1. definition=any period of seven consecutive days | synonyms=hebdomad | examples=it rained for a week
2. definition=hours or days of work in a calendar week | synonyms=workweek | examples=they worked a 40-hour week
3. definition=a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday | synonyms=calendar week

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

2.  **Analyze the Context:**
    *   The context discusses a climate conference in Copenhagen.
    *   The relevant sentence is: "...with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next `<t>week</t>`."

3.  **Analyze the Usage:**
    *   "Next week" refers to the immediate future period of seven days following the current time (when the text is being written/read).
    *   It is a general reference to a future period of time.

4.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=any period of seven consecutive days | synonyms=hebdomad | examples=it rained for a week. (General period of seven days.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=hours or days of work in a calendar week | synonyms=workweek | examples=they worked a 40-hour week. (Specific to work/labor.)
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a period of seven consecutive days starting on Sunday | synonyms=calendar week. (Specific definition tied to Sunday start.)

5.  **Match Usage to Sense:**
    *   The usage ("next week") is a general reference to a future seven-day period.
    *   Sense 1 matches this general definition ("any period of seven consecutive days").
    *   Sense 2 is incorrect (not about work).
    *   Sense 3 is too specific (it doesn't mandate a Sunday start, and Sense 1 is the broader, more accurate fit for the general temporal reference).

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the correct sense.

7.  **Format the Output:** Return only the number.

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

But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the <t>text</t> is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate.

Senses:
1. definition=the words of something written | synonyms=textual matter | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text; they handed out the printed text of the mayor's speech
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 | synonyms=textbook, text edition, schoolbook, school text | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition; the professor wrote the text that he assigned students to buy
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 context:** The sentence containing the target word is: "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the <t>text</t> is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term."

2.  **Determine the function of "text" in this context:**
    *   It was "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group." (Suggests creation/drafting).
    *   It is related to a "climate conference" and "greenhouse-gas reductions."
    *   It "could provide the basis for a final political deal." (Suggests a formal document or proposal).
    *   It is "silent on how much money..." and "provides a range of options for the key questions." (Suggests content/substance).

3.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the words of something written | synonyms=textual matter | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text; they handed out the printed text of the mayor's speech.
        *   *Fit:* This refers to the content or the written material itself. A document drafted by a working group fits this description perfectly.

    *   **Sense 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.
        *   *Fit:* No. The context is climate policy, not religious sermons.

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | synonyms=textbook, text edition, schoolbook, school text | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition; the professor wrote the text that he assigned students to buy.
        *   *Fit:* No. It is a policy document, not a school textbook.

    *   **Sense 4:** definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand.
        *   *Fit:* This is a possibility, as the document is a "written work." However, Sense 1 ("the words of something written / textual matter") is a broader and more accurate fit for a complete, drafted policy document (the entire body of the agreement/proposal). Sense 4 often refers to the *part* of a work, while Sense 1 refers to the *material* itself. Given the context of a complete, drafted policy document, Sense 1 is the most encompassing and appropriate definition.

4.  **Conclusion:** The "text" is a formal, written document/draft created by a working group. This aligns best with Sense 1.

Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much <t>money</t> rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate.

Senses:
1. definition=the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender | examples=we tried to collect the money he owed us
2. definition=wealth reckoned in terms of money | examples=all his money is in real estate
3. definition=the official currency issued by a government or national bank | examples=he changed his money into francs

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

2.  **Analyze the Context:**
    *   The context discusses a U.N. climate conference, greenhouse-gas reductions, industrialized nations, and global warming.
    *   The specific sentence is: "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much <t>money</t> rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term."

3.  **Analyze the Usage of "money" in the Context:**
    *   The phrase is "how much money rich countries would give poor ones."
    *   This refers to financial aid, donations, or transfers of wealth/resources from wealthy nations to poorer nations to address a global problem (climate change).

4.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender | examples=we tried to collect the money he owed us. (Focuses on currency/transactions.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=wealth reckoned in terms of money | examples=all his money is in real estate. (Focuses on overall accumulated wealth/assets.)
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=the official currency issued by a government or national bank | examples=he changed his money into francs. (Focuses specifically on official currency.)

5.  **Match the Usage to the Sense:**
    *   The context is about *giving* resources/aid ("how much money... would give poor ones"). This is not primarily about the act of exchanging currency (Sense 1), nor is it strictly about the official currency (Sense 3).
    *   It refers to the *financial resources* or *wealth* that rich countries possess and are expected to transfer to poor countries. This aligns best with the concept of wealth or financial capacity, which is captured by Sense 2 (wealth reckoned in terms of money, or the financial resources available).

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 2 is the most appropriate fit.

7.  **Final Output Generation:** Return only the number 2.

And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate.

Senses:
1. definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | synonyms=state, nation, land, commonwealth, res publica, body politic | examples=the state has elected a new president; African nations

5. definition=a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography) | synonyms=area | examples=it was a mountainous area; Bible country

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence containing the target word is: "Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich <t>countries</t> would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term."

2.  **Analyze the surrounding text/topic:** The text discusses a U.N.-sponsored climate conference, greenhouse-gas reductions, industrialized nations, global warming, and financial aid between developed and developing economies.

3.  **Determine the meaning of "countries" in this context:** The word "countries" refers to sovereign political entities (nations/states) that are categorized as "rich" or "poor" in terms of economic development and ability to provide financial aid.

4.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**

    *   **1. definition=a politically organized body of people under a single government | synonyms=state, nation, land, commonwealth, res publica, body politic | examples=the state has elected a new president; African nations**
        *   *Match:* This definition perfectly matches the concept of a sovereign nation/state (e.g., the US, Germany, China) which is the entity capable of giving financial aid.

    *   **2. definition=the territory occupied by a nation | synonyms=state, land | examples=he returned to the land of his birth; he visited several European countries**
        *   *Match:* While related, the focus here is on the *political entity* (the giver/receiver of aid), not just the physical territory. Sense 1 is a better fit for the economic/political discussion.

    *   **3. definition=the people who live in a nation or country | synonyms=nation, land | examples=a statement that sums up the nation's mood; the news was announced to the nation**
        *   *Match:* Incorrect. The text refers to the *countries* (the governments/states), not the *people* within them.

    *   **4. definition=an area outside of cities and towns | synonyms=rural area | examples=his poetry celebrated the slower pace of life in the country**
        *   *Match:* Incorrect. This refers to the countryside, not sovereign states.

    *   **5. definition=a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose or distinguished by its people or culture or geography) | synonyms=area | examples=it was a mountainous area; Bible country**
        *   *Match:* Incorrect. This is too vague and does not capture the political/economic nature of the entities being discussed.

5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the correct interpretation, as "rich countries" refers to economically powerful sovereign states.

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the smallest whole number or a numeral representing this number | synonyms=1, I, ace, single, unity | examples=he has the one but will need a two and three to go with it; they had lunch at one. (This is the cardinal number sense.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=a single person or thing | examples=he is the best one; this is the one I ordered. (This is the indefinite pronoun/substitute sense.)

4.  **Apply the Context to the Senses:**
    *   The word "ones" in the context ("poor ones") is functioning as a plural noun substitute, referring to "poor people" or "poor nations/countries" (given the context of global warming and rich/poor countries).
    *   It is *not* being used as the numeral "1" or a quantity (Sense 1).
    *   It *is* being used as a substitute for a group of people/things (Sense 2).

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

Context: U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term. The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a <t>range</t> of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club.

Senses:
1. definition=an area in which something acts or operates or has power or control: | synonyms=scope, reach, orbit, compass, ambit | examples=the range of a supersonic jet; a piano has a greater range than the human voice
2. definition=the limits within which something can be effective | synonyms=reach | examples=range of motion; he was beyond the reach of their fire
3. definition=a large tract of grassy open land on which livestock can graze | examples=they used to drive the cattle across the open range every spring; he dreamed of a home on the range
4. definition=a series of hills or mountains | synonyms=mountain range, range of mountains, chain, mountain chain, chain of mountains | examples=the valley was between two ranges of hills; the plains lay just beyond the mountain range
5. definition=a place for shooting (firing or driving) projectiles of various kinds | examples=the army maintains a missile range in the desert; any good golf club will have a range where you can practice
6. definition=a variety of different things or activities | examples=he answered a range of questions; he was impressed by the range and diversity of the collection
7. definition=(mathematics) the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined | synonyms=image, range of a function | examples=the image of f(x) = x^2 is the set of all non-negative real numbers if the domain of the function is the set of all real numbers
8. definition=the limit of capability | synonyms=compass, reach, grasp | examples=within the compass of education
9. definition=a kitchen appliance used for cooking food | synonyms=stove, kitchen stove, kitchen range, cooking stove | examples=dinner was already on the stove

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence containing the target word is: "And it provides a <t>range</t> of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate."

2.  **Determine the meaning of "range" in this specific context:** The text is discussing "options" for "key questions" (e.g., how economies cut carbon, what temperature rise is tolerable). The document provides a variety or selection of possibilities/choices.

3.  **Examine the provided senses:**

    *   1. an area in which something acts or operates or has power or control (scope, reach, ambit). (Relates to scope/area of influence.)
    *   2. the limits within which something can be effective (reach). (Relates to boundaries of effectiveness.)
    *   3. a large tract of grassy open land (grazing land). (Irrelevant.)
    *   4. a series of hills or mountains (mountain range). (Irrelevant.)
    *   5. a place for shooting projectiles (firing range). (Irrelevant.)
    *   6. a variety of different things or activities (examples: he answered a range of questions; he was impressed by the range and diversity of the collection). (Matches the idea of "options" and "variety.")
    *   7. (mathematics) the set of values of the dependent variable. (Too specific/technical, though related to variety of values.)
    *   8. the limit of capability (compass, reach, grasp). (Relates to limits/ability.)
    *   9. a kitchen appliance (stove). (Irrelevant.)

4.  **Match the context meaning to the best sense:** The context ("a range of options for the key questions") clearly means a variety or selection of choices. Sense 6 ("a variety of different things or activities") is the perfect match.

5.  **Final check:** "A range of options" = "A variety of different things." This confirms Sense 6.

But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of <t>options</t> for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club.

Senses:
1. definition=the right to buy or sell property at an agreed price; the right is purchased and if it is not exercised by a stated date the money is forfeited

3. definition=the act of choosing or selecting | synonyms=choice, selection, pick | examples=your choice of colors was unfortunate; you can take your pick

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

2.  **Analyze the context surrounding "options":**
    "And it provides a range of <t>options</t> for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "options" in this context:**
    The text states the document provides a "range of options for the key questions." These questions involve specific policy choices (how much to cut carbon, what temperature rise limit to tolerate). The subsequent sentence confirms this by saying it "gives a lot of flexibility to the process." This means the document offers several possible courses of action or solutions.

4.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "the right to buy or sell property at an agreed price..." (Financial/legal right). *Does not fit.*
    *   **Sense 2:** "one of a number of things from which only one can be chosen | synonyms=alternative, choice | examples=what option did I have?; there no other alternative." (Alternative/Choice). *Fits perfectly.* The document offers several alternatives/choices for the policymakers.
    *   **Sense 3:** "the act of choosing or selecting | synonyms=choice, selection, pick | examples=your choice of colors was unfortunate; you can take your pick." (The *act* of choosing). *Does not fit.* The context refers to the *things* (the alternatives/choices) themselves, not the action of selecting them.

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

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

1. definition=an instance of questioning | synonyms=inquiry, enquiry, query, interrogation | examples=there was a question about my training; we made inquiries of all those who were present
2. definition=the subject matter at issue | synonyms=head | examples=the question of disease merits serious discussion; under the head of minor Roman poets
3. definition=a sentence of inquiry that asks for a reply | synonyms=interrogation, interrogative, interrogative sentence | examples=he asked a direct question; he had trouble phrasing his interrogations
4. definition=uncertainty about the truth or factuality or existence of something | synonyms=doubt, dubiousness, doubtfulness | examples=the dubiousness of his claim; there is no question about the validity of the enterprise

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The phrase is "the key <t>questions</t>". This phrase appears in the context of a climate conference, a negotiation, and a document outlining options for greenhouse-gas reductions. The document provides "a range of options" for these "questions."

2.  **Analyze the surrounding text:** The options relate to:
    *   "how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output"
    *   "what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "questions" in this context:** The "questions" are not literal interrogative sentences (Sense 3). They are not doubts (Sense 4). They are not formal motions (Sense 5). They are not marriage proposals (Sense 6). They are not instances of questioning in general (Sense 1).

4.  **Evaluate the remaining sense (Sense 2):**
    *   Sense 2 definition: "the subject matter at issue."
    *   Sense 2 synonyms: "head."
    *   Sense 2 examples: "the question of disease merits serious discussion; under the head of minor Roman poets."

5.  **Match the meaning:** In the phrase "the key questions," the word refers to the central issues or topics that need to be addressed or decided upon during the negotiation. These are the "subject matter at issue."

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

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

Context: U.N. group drafts plan to reduce emissions The U.N.-sponsored climate conference -- characterized so far by unruly posturing and mutual recriminations -- gained renewed focus Friday with the release of a document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term. The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the <t>upper limit</t> of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club.

Senses:
1. definition=the largest possible quantity | synonyms=maximum
2. definition=the limit on the upper (or northernmost) side of something

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The user wants to know which numbered sense of the phrase "upper limit" (marked with `<t></t>`) is used in the provided context. The output must be *only* the number of the correct sense.

2.  **Analyze the Context:** The relevant sentence is: "...and what would be the `<t>upper limit</t>` of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate."

3.  **Analyze the Phrase "upper limit" in Context:**
    *   The subject is "global temperature rise."
    *   The phrase refers to a boundary or ceiling for this rise.
    *   Policymakers are deciding how much rise they are "willing to tolerate."
    *   This implies a maximum acceptable value.

4.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the largest possible quantity | synonyms=maximum. (This fits the idea of a maximum acceptable temperature rise.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=the limit on the upper (or northernmost) side of something. (This refers to a physical boundary, like the upper limit of a mountain range or a latitude line. This does not fit the abstract concept of temperature tolerance.)

5.  **Determine the Correct Sense:** Sense 1 (maximum/largest possible quantity) is the correct meaning.

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

It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club.

Senses:
1. definition=the degree of hotness or coldness of a body or environment (corresponding to its molecular activity)
2. definition=the somatic sensation of cold or heat

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

2.  **Analyze the context:** The relevant phrase is "what would be the upper limit of global <t>temperature</t> rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate."

3.  **Analyze the senses:**
    *   Sense 1: "the degree of hotness or coldness of a body or environment (corresponding to its molecular activity)" (Scientific/Physical measurement).
    *   Sense 2: "the somatic sensation of cold or heat" (Perceptual/Tactile feeling).

4.  **Determine the meaning in context:** The context discusses "global rise" and "policymakers" setting an "upper limit." This refers to the measurable, physical change in the Earth's climate (global warming), not the feeling of heat on a person's skin.

5.  **Match the meaning to the senses:** The measurable, physical degree of hotness/coldness (global climate change) corresponds to Sense 1.

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

8. definition=(theology) the origination of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost | synonyms=emanation, procession | examples=the emanation of the Holy Spirit; the rising of the Holy Ghost
9. definition=an increase in cost | synonyms=boost, hike, cost increase | examples=they asked for a 10% rise in rates
10. definition=increase in price or value | synonyms=advance | examples=the news caused a general advance on the stock market

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The phrase is "upper limit of global temperature <t>rise</t> that policymakers would be willing to tolerate."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "rise" in this context:** Global temperature rise refers to an increase in temperature.
3.  **Examine the senses provided:**
    *   1. a growth in strength or number or importance (e.g., rise in popularity) - *Possible, but usually applied to abstract concepts.*
    *   2. the act of changing location in an upward direction (e.g., the plane's ascent) - *Relates to physical movement, not temperature change.*
    *   3. an upward slope or grade (e.g., a hill) - *Physical geography, irrelevant.*
    *   4. a movement upward (e.g., a balloon rising) - *Relates to physical movement, less precise for temperature.*
    *   5. the amount a salary is increased (e.g., a pay raise) - *Financial, irrelevant.*
    *   6. the property possessed by a slope or surface that rises - *Geographical, irrelevant.*
    *   7. a wave that lifts the surface of the water or ground (e.g., a tide) - *Specific physical event, irrelevant.*
    *   8. (theology) the origination of the Holy Spirit - *Religious, irrelevant.*
    *   9. an increase in cost (e.g., a price rise) - *Financial, irrelevant.*
    *   10. increase in price or value (e.g., stock market advance) - *Financial/value-based, but the context is temperature, not price.*

4.  **Re-evaluate the best fit:** The core meaning is "increase" or "growth."
    *   Sense 1: "a growth in strength or number or importance." Temperature is a measurable quantity, and an increase in temperature is a form of growth in that quantity. This is the most abstract and fitting definition for a change in a measurable variable like temperature.
    *   Sense 10: "increase in price or value." While temperature is a value, this sense is specifically tied to *price* or *market value*.

5.  **Conclusion:** The increase in temperature is best categorized as a "growth" or "increase" in a measurable quantity, aligning most closely with Sense 1. (Although Sense 10 is also an "increase," Sense 1 is broader and better fits the concept of a physical variable increasing.)

6.  **Final check:** "Global temperature rise" = "growth in global temperature." This matches Sense 1.

2. definition=the quality of being adaptable or variable | synonyms=flexibleness | examples=he enjoyed the flexibility of his working arrangement
3. definition=the trait of being easily persuaded | synonyms=tractability, tractableness

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence containing the target word is: "It gives a lot of <t>flexibility</t> to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club."
2.  **Analyze the surrounding text/topic:** The text discusses a climate conference, negotiations, a document outlining greenhouse-gas reductions, and a "process" (the negotiation/policy-making).
3.  **Determine the meaning of "flexibility" in this context:** When applied to a "process" or "negotiation," flexibility means that the rules, options, or outcomes are not rigidly fixed but allow for variation, compromise, or different approaches.
4.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** "the property of being flexible; easily bent or shaped." (Physical bending/shaping). This is unlikely to apply to a negotiation process.
    *   **Sense 2:** "the quality of being adaptable or variable." (Ability to change or adjust). This perfectly matches the idea of a negotiation process having room for different solutions or compromises.
    *   **Sense 3:** "the trait of being easily persuaded." (Willingness to be convinced). While related to negotiation, this sense usually describes a *person* (e.g., "He is flexible in his views"), not the *process* itself. The process provides options/room for change, which is adaptability.
5.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 2 ("the quality of being adaptable or variable") is the correct meaning when referring to the scope or structure of a negotiation process.
6.  **Final Output Generation:** Return only the number.

Senses:
1. definition=the capital of the United States in the District of Columbia and a tourist mecca; George Washington commissioned Charles L'Enfant to lay out the city in 1791 | synonyms=Washington D.C., American capital, capital of the United States
2. definition=a state in northwestern United States on the Pacific | synonyms=Evergreen State, WA
3. definition=the federal government of the United States | synonyms=Capital
4. definition=1st President of the United States; commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution (1732-1799) | synonyms=George Washington, President Washington
5. definition=United States educator who was born a slave but became educated and founded a college at Tuskegee in Alabama (1856-1915) | synonyms=Booker T. Washington, Booker Taliaferro Washington

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence is: "It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior <t>Washington</t> representative for the Sierra Club."
2.  **Analyze the role of "Washington":** "Washington" is used as an adjective modifying "representative." It indicates the affiliation or location of the representative.
3.  **Analyze the surrounding entities:** John Coequyt is a representative for the Sierra Club (an environmental organization). The context is a global climate conference (Copenhagen).
4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   1. Capital of the United States (D.C.): A representative *from* Washington D.C. is common, but the phrasing "senior Washington representative" often implies a specific governmental or institutional affiliation.
    *   2. State in northwestern United States (WA): A representative *from* Washington State.
    *   3. The federal government of the United States: This is an abstract concept, but "Washington" is often used as shorthand for the federal government (e.g., "Washington policy").
    *   4. 1st President of the United States: Unlikely to be used as an adjective modifying a representative's title unless referring to a historical role, which doesn't fit the context of a current representative.
    *   5. Educator (Booker T. Washington): Irrelevant to the context of a climate conference representative.
5.  **Determine the most likely meaning:** When an organization or individual is described as a "Washington representative," especially in political or policy contexts (like climate negotiations), it usually refers to the federal government or the political power structure centered in Washington D.C. (Sense 3 or Sense 1).
6.  **Refine the choice between 1 and 3:**
    *   Sense 1 (D.C. city): John Coequyt is a representative *for* the Sierra Club, but he is identified as a "senior Washington representative." This suggests his role is tied to the political influence or governmental sphere of Washington.
    *   Sense 3 (Federal government): This sense captures the *function* of the affiliation—representing the interests or policies of the U.S. federal government/political establishment.
7.  **Re-examine common usage:** In political discourse, "Washington" (without specifying D.C.) is frequently used as a metonym for the U.S. federal government or its political apparatus. Given that the Sierra Club is an advocacy group interacting with global policy, identifying a representative as "Washington" strongly suggests a connection to the federal policy-making environment.
8.  **Conclusion:** Sense 3 ("the federal government of the United States") is the most appropriate interpretation for "senior Washington representative" in this political/policy context. (Although Sense 1 is geographically correct, Sense 3 captures the intended political meaning.)

    *   Sense 4: definition=an item of information that is typical of a class or group | synonyms=example, illustration, instance. (A noun meaning a sample/instance.)
5.  **Match the context to the senses:**
    *   Is he a member of Congress (Sense 3)? Unlikely, as he is identified as representing the Sierra Club, not a political party or district.
    *   Is he an example (Sense 4)? No.
    *   Is he a general representative (Sense 1)? Yes, but Sense 2 is more precise.
    *   Sense 2 ("an advocate who represents someone else's policy or purpose | synonyms=spokesperson, interpreter, voice") perfectly describes someone who works for an organization (Sierra Club) and speaks/advocates on its behalf in a policy setting (Washington/climate conference).
6.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 2 is the most accurate and specific fit for "senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club."

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

Context: The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases, highlighted the remaining obstacles as much as it illuminated a path forward. But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club. Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page <t>document</t>, boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as "the big picture." 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 levels, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent.

Senses:
1. definition=writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature) | synonyms=written document, papers
2. definition=anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks
3. definition=a written account of ownership or obligation
4. definition=(computer science) a computer file that contains text (and possibly formatting instructions) using seven-bit ASCII characters | synonyms=text file

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

2.  **Analyze the context:**
    *   The context discusses a negotiation about regulating greenhouse gases.
    *   It mentions "The text," "a negotiation that is running out of time," and "a six-page <t>document</t>."
    *   The document was "drafted by a U.N. ad-hoc working group."
    *   It "boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official... described as 'the big picture.'"
    *   It "shows the outlines for a possible deal."

3.  **Analyze the target word and its usage:** The word is "document" (specifically, "six-page document"). It refers to the written output of a negotiation/working group that outlines a possible deal and contains information/options.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=writing that provides information (especially information of an official nature) | synonyms=written document, papers.
        *   *Match?* Yes. A negotiation text/working group output that outlines a deal is a written document providing official information.
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=anything serving as a representation of a person's thinking by means of symbolic marks.
        *   *Match?* Too broad (could be a drawing, a piece of music, etc.). While a document is a representation of thought, Sense 1 is much more specific and accurate for this context.
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a written account of ownership or obligation.
        *   *Match?* No. This refers specifically to legal deeds or contracts (e.g., a deed of ownership).
    *   **Sense 4:** definition=(computer science) a computer file that contains text...
        *   *Match?* No. The context refers to a physical/political negotiation text, not a digital file format.

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

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

Senses:

2. definition=the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

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

2.  **Analyze the Context:**
    *   The context discusses a "text" that could be the basis for a "final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases."
    *   It mentions "more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week."
    *   The text is part of a process involving a "U.N. ad-hoc working group."
    *   The final sentence states: "Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page <t>negotiation</t> text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as 'the big picture.'"
    *   The overall theme is international climate talks, drafting documents, and seeking a political agreement (a "deal").

3.  **Analyze the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=a discussion intended to produce an agreement | synonyms=dialogue, talks | examples=the buyout negotiation lasted several days; they disagreed but kept an open dialogue
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

4.  **Determine the Usage:**
    *   In the context, the word "negotiation" is used to describe a *text* (a document). This text is the *product* or the *record* of the ongoing talks/discussions between world leaders.
    *   Sense 1 focuses on the *discussion* or *dialogue* itself.
    *   Sense 2 focuses on the *activity* or *business* of negotiating.

5.  **Refine the Distinction (Text vs. Activity):**
    *   While the text *is* the result of the activity (Sense 2), when a document is referred to as a "negotiation text," it is functioning as the record or the substance of the *talks* (Sense 1).
    *   However, let's look closely at the definitions provided.
        *   Sense 1: "a discussion intended to produce an agreement." (Focuses on the event/process).
        *   Sense 2: "the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms." (Focuses on the process/action).
    *   In common usage, when a document is called a "negotiation," it refers to the entire process and the resulting substance of that process. Both senses are closely related.
    *   *Re-evaluating the context:* "boiled down a 180-page negotiation text." This text *is* the record of the talks. The talks themselves are the "discussion" (Sense 1) or the "activity" (Sense 2).
    *   Since the context is about the *process* of reaching a deal among leaders, and the text is the *output* of that process, Sense 1 ("a discussion intended to produce an agreement") captures the essence of the event better than Sense 2 ("the activity or business"). The text is the record of the *discussion*.

6.  **Final Check:** The context describes high-level political talks ("world leaders," "political deal"). These are fundamentally "discussions intended to produce an agreement." Therefore, Sense 1 is the most appropriate fit for the conceptual meaning of the document being a record of those talks.

7.  **Formulate the Output:** Return only the number. (1)

Senses:
1. definition=the words of something written | synonyms=textual matter | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text; they handed out the printed text of the mayor's speech
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

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

2.  **Analyze the context:** The context discusses a document/draft created by a U.N. ad-hoc working group regarding climate change negotiations (Copenhagen).
    *   "The text, which could provide the basis for a final political deal..."
    *   "...the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones..."
    *   "Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page negotiation <t>text</t> to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official... described as 'the big picture.'"

3.  **Determine the meaning of "text" in the context:** In this scenario, "text" refers to the actual written document, the draft, or the body of the negotiation results that outlines the proposed deal and options.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the words of something written | synonyms=textual matter | examples=there were more than a thousand words of text; they handed out the printed text of the mayor's speech.
        *   *Fit:* This is a very general definition (the words themselves). The context refers to the *document* containing the words. It's plausible, but maybe too broad.

    *   **Sense 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.
        *   *Fit:* No. The context is political/climate negotiation, not religious.

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a book prepared for use in schools or colleges | synonyms=textbook, text edition, schoolbook, school text | examples=his economics textbook is in its tenth edition; the professor wrote the text that he assigned students to buy.
        *   *Fit:* No. It is a negotiation document, not a schoolbook.

    *   **Sense 4:** definition=the main body of a written work (as distinct from illustrations or footnotes etc.) | examples=pictures made the text easier to understand.
        *   *Fit:* This refers to the core content of a written work (the document/draft). The context describes the content of the negotiation document ("boiled down a 180-page negotiation text"). This sense accurately captures the meaning of the complete, substantive document being discussed.

5.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 4:**
    *   Sense 1 focuses on the *words* (the linguistic material).
    *   Sense 4 focuses on the *main body* (the complete, substantive document/work).
    *   Since the context refers to the entire "six-page document" and its contents ("silent on how much money," "provides a range of options"), Sense 4, which refers to the main body of a written work, is the most precise fit for a formal, substantive document like a negotiation draft.

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 4 is the correct sense.

2. definition=the prevailing psychological state | synonyms=mood | examples=the climate of opinion; the national mood had changed radically since the last election

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

2.  **Analyze the context:** The word "climate" appears in the sentence: "Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top <t>climate</t> official, Yvo de Boer, described as 'the big picture.'"

3.  **Analyze the surrounding text/topic:** The context discusses:
    *   A text/document related to regulating greenhouse gases.
    *   Global warming.
    *   Negotiations involving world leaders (Copenhagen).
    *   Cutting carbon output and setting limits on global temperature rise.
    *   The U.N.'s top official related to this subject.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the weather in some location averaged over some long period of time | synonyms=clime | examples=the dank climate of southern Wales; plants from a cold clime travel best in winter. (Relates to meteorology/weather patterns.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=the prevailing psychological state | synonyms=mood | examples=the climate of opinion; the national mood had changed radically since the last election. (Relates to atmosphere/mood/social environment.)

5.  **Determine the correct sense:**
    *   The context is about global warming, greenhouse gases, and international policy. While "climate" technically refers to long-term weather patterns (Sense 1), in the context of international environmental policy (like the UNFCCC negotiations mentioned), "climate" is used as a specialized term referring to the Earth's long-term atmospheric conditions and the resulting environmental state.
    *   However, the provided senses are:
        *   Sense 1: Weather/Meteorology.
        *   Sense 2: Mood/Psychological state.
    *   The usage here ("U.N.'s top climate official") refers to the official responsible for the *subject matter* of climate change (the physical/environmental climate).
    *   If the provided senses are the *only* options, Sense 1 (weather/long-term environment) is the closest fit, even if the specific usage in the sentence is a title referring to the field of study/policy (which is a common extension of the meteorological definition). Sense 2 is clearly incorrect (it's not about mood or opinion).

6.  **Conclusion:** The context is about global environmental change and temperature rise, which falls under the domain of long-term atmospheric conditions (Sense 1).

7.  **Final check:** The official is the "climate" official, meaning the official dealing with climate change. Climate change is fundamentally about long-term shifts in the Earth's climate (Sense 1).

Senses:
1. definition=a visual representation (of an object or scene or person or abstraction) produced on a surface | synonyms=image, icon, ikon | examples=they showed us the pictures of their wedding; a movie is a series of images projected so rapidly that the eye integrates them

5. definition=illustrations used to decorate or explain a text | synonyms=pictorial matter | examples=the dictionary had many pictures
6. definition=a form of entertainment that enacts a story by sound and a sequence of images giving the illusion of continuous movement | synonyms=movie, film, moving picture, moving-picture show, motion picture, motion-picture show | examples=they went to a movie every Saturday night; the film was shot on location
7. definition=the visible part of a television transmission | synonyms=video | examples=they could still receive the sound but the picture was gone
8. definition=a graphic or vivid verbal description | synonyms=word picture, word-painting, delineation, depiction, characterization, characterisation | examples=too often the narrative was interrupted by long word pictures; the author gives a depressing picture of life in Poland

10. definition=a representation of a person or scene in the form of a print or transparent slide; recorded by a camera on light-sensitive material | synonyms=photograph, photo, exposure, pic

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The phrase is "the big <t>picture</t>." This phrase appears in the context of a negotiation text (a document) regarding climate change, where a drafter "boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official... described as 'the big picture.'"

2.  **Determine the meaning of "the big picture" in this context:** When discussing complex issues, plans, or negotiations, "the big picture" refers to the overall situation, the broad context, the general scope, or the complete view of the matter, rather than the minute details.

3.  **Examine the senses provided:**

    *   1. visual representation (image, icon) - *No, it's not a literal image.*
    *   2. graphic art (painting) - *No.*
    *   3. a clear and telling mental image (mental picture, impression) - *This relates to understanding the overall scope or impression.*
    *   4. a situation treated as an observable object (scene) - *This refers to the overall situation or context.*
    *   5. illustrations (pictorial matter) - *No.*
    *   6. entertainment (movie, film) - *No.*
    *   7. visible part of a television transmission (video) - *No.*
    *   8. graphic or vivid verbal description (word picture) - *No, it's the concept itself, not the description.*
    *   9. a typical example of some state or quality - *No.*
    *   10. representation (photograph, photo) - *No.*

4.  **Compare the best candidates (3 and 4):**

    *   Sense 3: "a clear and telling mental image." While "the big picture" is a mental concept, Sense 4 is often used specifically when referring to the *situation* or *context* of a complex issue.
    *   Sense 4: "a situation treated as an observable object (scene)." The example given is "the political picture is favorable." This usage perfectly matches the context of a negotiation text and global climate policy. "The big picture" here means the overall political/global situation.

5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 4 captures the meaning of "the big picture" as the comprehensive view of a complex situation (the negotiation/climate issue).

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

Context: But it was seen as an important advance in a negotiation that is running out of time, with more than 100 world leaders arriving in Copenhagen next week. Forged by a U.N. ad-hoc working group, the text is silent on how much money rich countries would give poor ones to cope with global warming over the short and long term. And it provides a range of options for the key questions, including how developed and major emerging economies would cut their carbon output, and what would be the upper limit of global temperature rise that policymakers would be willing to tolerate. It gives a lot of flexibility to the process, said John Coequyt, senior Washington representative for the Sierra Club. Michael Zammit Cutajar, who drafted the six-page document, boiled down a 180-page negotiation text to focus on what the U.N.'s top climate official, Yvo de Boer, described as "the big picture." It shows the <t>outlines</t> for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 levels, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent. Together, the countries would cut emissions between 50 and 95 percent by 2050.

Senses:
1. definition=the line that appears to bound an object | synonyms=lineation
2. definition=a sketchy summary of the main points of an argument or theory | synonyms=synopsis, abstract, precis
3. definition=a schematic or preliminary plan | synonyms=schema, scheme

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "outline" (specifically "outlines") is used in the provided context. The output must be only the number.

2.  **Analyze the context:**
    *   The text discusses a negotiation process involving world leaders and a climate change agreement.
    *   A 180-page negotiation text was "boiled down" to focus on "the big picture."
    *   The key sentence is: "It shows the <t>outlines</t> for a possible deal, in which industrial nations would collectively cut their emissions by 2020 by 25 to 45 percent compared with 1990 levels, while major developing countries would reduce theirs during the same period by 15 to 30 percent. Together, the countries would cut emissions between 50 and 95 percent by 2050."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "outlines" in context:**
    *   The "outlines" are not physical lines (Sense 1).
    *   They are not a preliminary plan or schematic (Sense 3), although they relate to planning, the function here is summarizing the *content* of the deal.
    *   They represent the main points, the structure, and the key parameters (emission cuts by specific percentages and years) of the proposed agreement. This is a summary or a synopsis of the deal's terms.

4.  **Match the meaning to the senses:**
    *   Sense 1: the line that appears to bound an object (Physical lineation). -> Incorrect.
    *   Sense 2: a sketchy summary of the main points of an argument or theory (Synopsis, abstract, precis). -> Correct. The "outlines" are the main points/terms of the possible deal.
    *   Sense 3: a schematic or preliminary plan (Schema, scheme). -> Plausible, but Sense 2 is a better fit because the text is describing the *content* of the deal (the targets), which is a summary of the agreement's scope.

5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 2 best describes the function of "outlines" in this context (a summary of the main points of the proposed deal).

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