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

Context: Proper English bells are started off in "rounds, "from the highest-pitched bell to the lowest -- a simple descending scale using, in larger churches, as many as 12 bells. Then, at a signal, the ringers begin varying the order in which the bells sound without altering the steady rhythm of the striking. Each variation, or change, can occur only once, the rules state. Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as "methods, "which have odd-sounding names like Kent Treble Bob Major or Grandsire Caters. A series of 5,000 or so changes is a "peal "and takes about three hours. A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an <t>idea</t> of the work involved. Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber.

Senses:
1. definition=the content of cognition; the main thing you are thinking about | synonyms=thought | examples=it was not a good idea; the thought never entered my mind
2. definition=your intention; what you intend to do | synonyms=mind | examples=he had in mind to see his old teacher; the idea of the game is to capture all the pieces
3. definition=a personal view | examples=he has an idea that we don't like him
4. definition=an approximate calculation of quantity or degree or worth | synonyms=estimate, estimation, approximation | examples=an estimate of what it would cost; a rough idea how long it would take
5. definition=(music) melodic subject of a musical composition | synonyms=theme, melodic theme, musical theme | examples=the theme is announced in the first measures; the accompanist picked up the idea and elaborated it

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence containing the target word is: "A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an <t>idea</t> of the work involved."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "idea" in this specific context:** The context is describing a complex, time-consuming process (a "peal" of bells, involving 5,000 changes). The phrase "gives an idea of the work involved" means it provides a general sense, a rough picture, or an approximation of the scale/nature of the work.
3.  **Examine the provided senses:**
    *   Sense 1: Content of cognition/thought. (e.g., "it was not a good idea"). Does not fit "gives an idea of the work involved."
    *   Sense 2: Intention/what you intend to do. (e.g., "he had in mind to see his old teacher"). Does not fit.
    *   Sense 3: Personal view. (e.g., "he has an idea that we don't like him"). Does not fit.
    *   Sense 4: An approximate calculation of quantity or degree or worth (synonyms: estimate, approximation). (e.g., "a rough idea how long it would take"). This perfectly matches the meaning of "gives an idea of the work involved" (i.e., a general estimation or sense of the scale).
    *   Sense 5: (Music) melodic subject. (e.g., "the theme is announced in the first measures"). This is irrelevant to the general description of the practice.
4.  **Select the correct sense number:** Sense 4 is the correct fit.
5.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.

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

2.  **Analyze the context:** The context describes the process of bell ringing (a specific activity). It mentions:
    *   "Proper English bells are started off in 'rounds... a simple descending scale..."
    *   "ringers begin varying the order..."
    *   "Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as 'methods'..."
    *   "A series of 5,000 or so changes is a 'peal'..."
    *   "A look at a Thursday night practice... gives an idea of the <t>work</t> involved."
    *   The description details the physical actions (standing, pulling ropes) and the mental/skillful execution of the bell ringing.

3.  **Determine the meaning of "work" in the context:** In the phrase "the work involved," "work" refers to the effort, the activity, the process, and the skill required to perform the bell ringing.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**

    *   1. definition=activity directed toward making or doing something | examples=she checked several points needing further work. (Matches the idea of effort/activity/process.)
    *   2. definition=a product produced or accomplished through the effort or activity or agency of a person or thing | synonyms=piece of work | examples=it is not regarded as one of his more memorable works. (This refers to the *result*, not the *process* itself, although the process leads to a result.)
    *   3. definition=the occupation for which you are paid | synonyms=employment | examples=he is looking for employment. (Incorrect; it's an activity, not necessarily paid employment.)
    *   4. definition=applying the mind to learning and understanding a subject (especially by reading) | synonyms=study | examples=mastering a second language requires a lot of work. (Too narrow; this is physical/skill-based activity, not just academic study.)
    *   5. definition=(physics) a manifestation of energy... (Incorrect; physical science definition.)
    *   6. definition=a place where work is done | synonyms=workplace | examples=he arrived at work early today. (Incorrect; it refers to the activity, not the location.)
    *   7. definition=the total output of a writer or artist (or a substantial part of it) | synonyms=oeuvre, body of work | examples=he studied the entire Wagnerian oeuvre. (Incorrect; this refers to a completed body of art.)

5.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 1, "activity directed toward making or doing something," perfectly captures the meaning of the effort and process ("the work involved") in the context of practicing bell ringing.

6.  **Final check:** The context describes the *activity* of bell ringing. Sense 1 defines "work" as an *activity*. This is the correct match.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence is: "A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work <t>involved</t>."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "involved" in this context:** The context describes a complex, highly structured activity (bell ringing, specific patterns, 5,000 changes, specific stances, ropes, etc.). The "work involved" refers to the complexity, intricacy, and detail of the task.
3.  **Examine the senses provided:**
    *   1. connected by participation or association or use (e.g., people involved). (Doesn't fit the complexity of the *work*.)
    *   2. entangled or hindered as if e.g. in mire (e.g., difficulties involved). (Suggests difficulty/hindrance, but the primary meaning here is complexity, not just being stuck.)
    *   3. emotionally involved. (Irrelevant to physical/technical work.)
    *   4. highly complex or intricate and occasionally devious; (Synonyms: Byzantine, convoluted, knotty, tangled, tortuous. Examples: Byzantine tax structure.) (This perfectly matches the description of complex, detailed, and intricate work.)
    *   5. enveloped (e.g., a castle involved in mist). (Suggests being surrounded, which is too literal and doesn't capture the sense of complexity.)
4.  **Match the meaning to the best sense:** The work described (bell ringing patterns, specific rules, 5,000 changes) is highly complex and intricate. Sense 4 is the best fit.
5.  **Final check:** "The work involved" = "The highly complex/intricate work." This aligns with Sense 4.
6.  **Return the number:** 4.

No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling.

Senses:
1. definition=be standing; be upright | synonyms=stand up | examples=We had to stand for the entire performance!
2. definition=be in some specified state or condition | examples=I stand corrected

2.  **Determine the meaning of "stand" in this context:** The ringers are physically positioned upright, arranged in a circle, adopting a specific posture ("prize-fighter's stance").
3.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**
    *   1. definition=be standing; be upright | synonyms=stand up | examples=We had to stand for the entire performance! (Matches the physical state of being upright/positioned.)
    *   2. definition=be in some specified state or condition | examples=I stand corrected (Too abstract/idiomatic.)

    *   10. definition=put into an upright position | synonyms=stand up, place upright | examples=Can you stand the bookshelf up? (This is transitive/causative, meaning to make something upright. The ringers are doing the action themselves, so this is less likely.)
    *   11. definition=withstand the force of something | synonyms=resist, fend | examples=The trees resisted her; stand the test of time (Incorrect meaning.)
    *   12. definition=be available for stud services | examples=male domestic animals such as stallions serve selected females (Incorrect meaning.)
4.  **Compare the best fits (1 and 3):**
    *   Sense 3 (occupy a place or location) is plausible, but Sense 1 (be standing; be upright) perfectly captures the physical state described: "Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle... in a prize-fighter's stance." They are physically upright and positioned.
5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the most accurate description of the physical action/state.

2.  **Determine the meaning of "circle" in this context:** The ringers are standing together, arranged in a specific formation. The description "one foot ahead of the other" suggests they are forming a closed or semi-closed arrangement, not necessarily a perfect geometric shape, but a grouping.
3.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**
    *   1. Ellipse/geometric shape (too precise for a group of people).
    *   2. Unofficial association of people or groups (This fits the idea of a group of people gathered together).
    *   3. Something approximating the shape of a circle (This fits the idea of people arranged in a circular formation, even if not perfectly geometric).

5.  **Match the meaning to the senses:** The context implies the absence of verbal communication. Senses 1, 2, and 3 all relate to verbal communication.
    *   Sense 1 ("express in speech") fits perfectly: No one is uttering words.
    *   Sense 2 ("exchange thoughts; talk with") fits, but Sense 1 is more precise for the simple statement of silence.
    *   Sense 3 ("use language") also fits.
6.  **Select the best fit:** When describing the absence of verbal communication in a focused activity, "express in speech" (Sense 1) is the most direct and accurate definition for the act of speaking.

7.  **Final check:** "No one speaks" (meaning no one is talking/uttering words) aligns with Sense 1.

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

Context: Each variation, or change, can occur only once, the rules state. Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as "methods, "which have odd-sounding names like Kent Treble Bob Major or Grandsire Caters. A series of 5,000 or so changes is a "peal "and takes about three hours. A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work involved. Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the <t>ropes</t> seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls.

Senses:
1. definition=a strong line
2. definition=street names for flunitrazepan | synonyms=R-2, Mexican valium, rophy, roofy, roach, forget me drug

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

2.  **Analyze the Context:**
    *   The context describes a practice session of "ringers" (people who ring bells).
    *   "Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber."
    *   "No one speaks, and the snaking of the <t>ropes</t> seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves..."
    *   "...using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls."

3.  **Determine the Meaning of "ropes" in the Context:**
    *   The ropes are physical objects.
    *   They are being pulled by the ringers.
    *   They are snaking/moving.
    *   They are visible and timed.
    *   They are associated with the mechanism of ringing bells.

4.  **Evaluate the Senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=a strong line. (This is a general definition of a rope, referring to its physical form.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=street names for flunitrazepan | synonyms=R-2, Mexican valium, rophy, roofy, roach, forget me drug. (This is a drug reference, completely irrelevant to the context.)

5.  **Match the Context to the Sense:**
    *   The ropes in the context are physical lines/cords used to operate the bells.
    *   This matches the general physical definition of a rope (Sense 1).

6.  **Formulate the Output:** The correct sense number is 1. (The instruction requires returning *only* the number.)

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=appear to exist | examples=There seems no reason to go ahead with the project now. (This is specifically about existence.)
    *   **Sense 4:** definition=appear to one's own mind or opinion | examples=I seem to be misunderstood by everyone; I can't seem to learn these Chinese characters. (This relates to the speaker's subjective perception or ability.)
4.  **Match the meaning to the best sense:** The ropes *appear* (give the impression) to make a certain amount of sound. This aligns perfectly with Sense 1 (give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect).

5.  **Conclusion:** The correct sense is 1.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The phrase is "the snaking of the ropes seems to <t>make</t> as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling."
2.  **Determine the meaning of 'make' in this context:** The ropes are producing or generating sound.
3.  **Examine the senses of 'make':** I need a sense that means 'to produce' or 'to cause to be heard/exist'.

    *   1. engage in (No)
    *   2. give certain properties to something (Maybe, but usually physical properties, not sound generation)
    *   3. make or cause to be or to become (General creation/causation. Plausible.)
    *   4. cause to do; cause to act (No, the ropes aren't being induced to act.)
    *   5. give rise to; cause to happen or occur (Very strong candidate. Sound is caused/given rise to by the snaking.)
    *   6. create or manufacture a man-made product (No, sound is not a product.)
    *   7. make, formulate, or derive in the mind (No)
    *   8. compel or make somebody or something to act (No)
    *   9. create by artistic means (No)

    *   49. eliminate urine (No)

4.  **Compare the best candidates (3 and 5):**
    *   Sense 3: "make or cause to be or to become" (General causation/creation).
    *   Sense 5: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" (Focuses on the result/occurrence).

    In the context of sound, "make sound" or "give rise to sound" is the most precise fit. Sense 5 captures the idea that the action (snaking) *causes* the sound to happen/occur. Sense 3 is also technically correct but Sense 5 is more specific to the concept of generation or emergence.

5.  **Final Selection:** Sense 5.

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

Context: Each variation, or change, can occur only once, the rules state. Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as "methods, "which have odd-sounding names like Kent Treble Bob Major or Grandsire Caters. A series of 5,000 or so changes is a "peal "and takes about three hours. A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work involved. Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much <t>sound</t> as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls.

Senses:
1. definition=the particular auditory effect produced by a given cause | examples=the sound of rain on the roof; the beautiful sound of music
2. definition=the subjective sensation of hearing something | synonyms=auditory sensation | examples=he strained to hear the faint sounds
3. definition=mechanical vibrations transmitted by an elastic medium | examples=falling trees make a sound in the forest even when no one is there to hear them
4. definition=the sudden occurrence of an audible event | examples=the sound awakened them

6. definition=(phonetics) an individual sound unit of speech without concern as to whether or not it is a phoneme of some language | synonyms=phone, speech sound
7. definition=a narrow channel of the sea joining two larger bodies of water | synonyms=strait
8. definition=a large ocean inlet or deep bay | examples=the main body of the sound ran parallel to the coast

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence containing the target word is: "No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much <t>sound</t> as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "sound" in this context:** The context describes the physical output (the noise/vibration) produced by the ropes and the bells. The ropes are "snaking," and the bells are ringing. The resulting "sound" is what is perceived or produced physically.
3.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**

    *   1. definition=the particular auditory effect produced by a given cause | examples=the sound of rain on the roof; the beautiful sound of music (This refers to the resulting auditory experience/effect.)
    *   2. definition=the subjective sensation of hearing something | synonyms=auditory sensation | examples=he strained to hear the faint sounds (This is the internal, subjective experience of hearing.)
    *   3. definition=mechanical vibrations transmitted by an elastic medium | examples=falling trees make a sound in the forest even when no one is there to hear them (This is the physical phenomenon itself, the vibration/wave.)
    *   4. definition=the sudden occurrence of an audible event | examples=the sound awakened them (This refers to the event/occurrence.)
    *   5. definition=the audible part of a transmitted signal | synonyms=audio | examples=they always raise the audio for commercials (This refers to technical signal quality/content.)
    *   6. definition=(phonetics) an individual sound unit of speech... (This is linguistic/phonetic.)
    *   7. definition=a narrow channel of the sea... (Irrelevant.)
    *   8. definition=a large ocean inlet or deep bay... (Irrelevant.)

4.  **Compare the context meaning to the best fit:**
    *   The context says the ropes "make as much sound as the bells." This refers to the *output* or *effect* of the ropes' movement.
    *   Sense 1 ("the particular auditory effect produced by a given cause") fits well, as the ropes (cause) produce the sound (effect).
    *   Sense 3 ("mechanical vibrations transmitted by an elastic medium") is also very close, as sound *is* vibration. However, Sense 1 is broader and captures the *auditory effect* that the reader is meant to understand (the noise).
    *   In common usage, when we say something "makes sound," we are referring to the resulting auditory effect (Sense 1), rather than strictly the physics of the vibration (Sense 3), although they are related.

5.  **Refine the choice between 1 and 3:**
    *   Context: "the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves."
    *   If we choose 1: The ropes produce an auditory effect (the noise). (Strong fit)
    *   If we choose 3: The ropes produce mechanical vibrations. (Also a strong fit, scientifically accurate).
    *   However, Sense 1 is the standard dictionary definition for the *result* of the noise being produced, which is what the sentence is describing (the comparison of the noise level).

6.  **Final Selection:** Sense 1 is the most appropriate definition for "sound" when describing the audible output of an action (the ropes making noise).

9. definition=a percussion instrument consisting of a set of tuned bells that are struck with a hammer; used as an orchestral instrument | synonyms=chime, gong
10. definition=the flared opening of a tubular device

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the context:** The passage describes "ringers" at a church ("St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London"). These ringers are pulling ropes that control "bells." The text mentions the sound of the ropes and the sound of the "bells" themselves, which are "muffled by the ceiling." The activity is clearly related to traditional church bell ringing.

2.  **Analyze the target word:** The word is "bells" (plural of bell).

3.  **Evaluate the senses provided:**

    *   1. definition=a hollow device made of metal that makes a ringing sound when struck. (This is the physical object used in church ringing.)
    *   2. definition=a push button at an outer door... (Doorbell/buzzer. Incorrect.)
    *   3. definition=the sound of a bell being struck. (This is the *sound*, not the physical object. While the context mentions sound, the word "bells" here refers to the objects being rung.)
    *   4. definition=(nautical) each of the eight half-hour units... (Nautical time. Incorrect.)
    *   5. definition=the shape of a bell. (Incorrect.)
    *   6. definition=a phonetician and father of Alexander Graham Bell. (Person. Incorrect.)
    *   7. definition=English painter; sister of Virginia Woolf. (Person. Incorrect.)
    *   8. definition=United States inventor... of the telephone. (Person. Incorrect.)
    *   9. definition=a percussion instrument consisting of a set of tuned bells... (Chime/gong. While church bells are percussion instruments, sense 1 is a more direct definition of the physical object itself, which is what is being pulled/rung.)
    *   10. definition=the flared opening of a tubular device. (Incorrect.)

4.  **Determine the best fit:** The context describes the physical objects (the bells) that the ringers are operating in a church. Sense 1, "a hollow device made of metal that makes a ringing sound when struck," perfectly describes the physical church bells.

5.  **Final check:** The ringers are pulling ropes to make the bells ring. The bells are physical objects. Sense 1 is the physical object.

    *   The context involves the *sound* being reduced or dampened by the ceiling.
    *   Sense 2 explicitly deals with "deaden (a sound or noise)."

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

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

Context: Each variation, or change, can occur only once, the rules state. Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as "methods, "which have odd-sounding names like Kent Treble Bob Major or Grandsire Caters. A series of 5,000 or so changes is a "peal "and takes about three hours. A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work involved. Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber. No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the <t>ceiling</t>. Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls.

Senses:
1. definition=the overhead upper surface of a covered space | examples=he hated painting the ceiling
2. definition=(meteorology) altitude of the lowest layer of clouds
3. definition=an upper limit on what is allowed | synonyms=roof, cap | examples=he put a ceiling on the number of women who worked for him; there was a roof on salaries
4. definition=maximum altitude at which a plane can fly (under specified conditions)

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

2.  **Analyze the context:**
    *   "...Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber."
    *   "...the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the <t>ceiling</t>."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "ceiling" in the context:**
    *   The ropes go through a hole *in* the ceiling.
    *   The sound is muffled *by* the ceiling.
    *   The context describes a physical structure (the upper surface of the ringing chamber).

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the overhead upper surface of a covered space | examples=he hated painting the ceiling. (Matches the physical structure described.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=(meteorology) altitude of the lowest layer of clouds. (Irrelevant.)
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=an upper limit on what is allowed | synonyms=roof, cap | examples=he put a ceiling on the number of women who worked for him; there was a roof on salaries. (Refers to a limit, not a physical surface.)
    *   **Sense 4:** definition=maximum altitude at which a plane can fly (under specified conditions). (Irrelevant.)

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

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

Context: Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as "methods, "which have odd-sounding names like Kent Treble Bob Major or Grandsire Caters. A series of 5,000 or so changes is a "peal "and takes about three hours. A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work involved.

No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling. Totally <t>absorbed</t>, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls. Far above in the belfry, the huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels, swing madly through a full 360 degrees, starting and ending, surprisingly, in the inverted, or mouth-up position.

Senses:
1. definition=giving or marked by complete attention to; ; ; - Walter de la Mare | synonyms=captive, engrossed, enwrapped, intent, wrapped | examples=that engrossed look or rapt delight; then wrapped in dreams
2. definition=retained without reflection | examples=the absorbed light intensity

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

2.  **Analyze the context:**
    *   "Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle..."
    *   "...No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling."
    *   "Totally <t>absorbed</t>, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls."

3.  **Determine the meaning of "absorbed" in the context:** The ringers are staring straight ahead, focused on the ropes and timing their pulls. They are completely engrossed in the activity.

4.  **Analyze the provided senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=giving or marked by complete attention to; synonyms=captive, engrossed, enwrapped, intent, wrapped; examples=that engrossed look or rapt delight; then wrapped in dreams.
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=retained without reflection; examples=the absorbed light intensity.

5.  **Match the context to the senses:**
    *   The ringers are focused/engrossed in the activity. This matches the definition of Sense 1 ("giving or marked by complete attention to").
    *   Sense 2 relates to light or material retention, which is irrelevant here.

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

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