raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "Nausea" in the given context, let's analyze the surrounding text and the candidate senses:

**Context Analysis:**
- The sentence mentions: *"Nausea seems a commonplace symptom."*
- The context is discussing symptoms, specifically noting that nausea is a common one.
- There is no mention of disgust or any situation that would imply a feeling of revulsion leading to sickness.

**Candidate Senses:**
1. **Sense 1:** The state that precedes vomiting (synonym: sickness).
2. **Sense 2:** Disgust so strong it makes you feel sick.

**Evaluation:**
- **Sense 1** aligns well with the context, as it directly refers to nausea as a symptom that precedes vomiting, which is a common medical or physiological description.
- **Sense 2** would imply a feeling of disgust leading to sickness, which is not suggested by the context. The text does not mention any source of disgust or repulsion.

**Conclusion:**
The context clearly indicates that "nausea" is being discussed as a common physiological symptom, fitting **Sense 1** better than **Sense 2**.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is **Sense 1**.

**JSON Response:**
```json
{"sense_index": 1}
```

Context:
It's hard to accept that it's over and only took 15 seconds. I wonder when we'll be able to relax. 9:53 a.m. PANDA: Flesh goes to total alert for flight or fight. Nausea <t>seems</t> a commonplace symptom. Berkeley very quiet right now.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=seem%2:39:00:: | definition=give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect | synonyms=look, appear | examples=She seems to be sleeping; This appears to be a very difficult problem
2. sense_key=seem%2:39:01:: | definition=seem to be true, probable, or apparent | synonyms=appear | examples=It seems that he is very gifted; It appears that the weather in California is very bad
3. sense_key=seem%2:42:00:: | definition=appear to exist | examples=There seems no reason to go ahead with the project now
4. sense_key=seem%2:39:02:: | 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

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

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "seems" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence:

"It's hard to accept that it's over and only took 15 seconds. I wonder when we'll be able to relax. 9:53 a.m. PANDA: Flesh goes to total alert for flight or fight. Nausea <t>seems</t> a commonplace symptom. Berkeley very quiet right now."

The phrase "Nausea <t>seems</t> a commonplace symptom" suggests that nausea appears to be a typical or usual symptom, indicating that it is perceived as common or expected in this context.

Now, let's match this interpretation with the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=seem%2:39:00::** - "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect"
   *Synonyms: look, appear*
   *Example: She seems to be sleeping.*
   This sense focuses on the outward appearance or impression, which aligns with the idea that nausea appears common.

2. **sense_key=seem%2:39:01::** - "seem to be true, probable, or apparent"
   *Synonyms: appear*
   *Example: It seems that he is very gifted.*
   This sense emphasizes the truth or probability of something, which is close but slightly broader than the specific notion of "commonplace."

3. **sense_key=seem%2:42:00::** - "appear to exist"
   *Example: There seems no reason to go ahead with the project now.*
   This sense is about the existence of something, which doesn't fit as well here.

4. **sense_key=seem%2:39:02::** - "appear to one's own mind or opinion"
   *Example: I seem to be misunderstood by everyone.*
   This sense is about personal perception, which is less relevant to the objective statement about nausea being a common symptom.

Given the context, the most appropriate sense is **sense_key=seem%2:39:00::**, as it directly captures the idea that nausea appears to be a typical or usual symptom, aligning with the synonyms "look" and "appear" and the example "She seems to be sleeping."

Therefore, the best indexed sense is the first one, corresponding to index 1 in the list.

**Answer:**
```json
{"sense_index": 1}
```

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "said" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

> "Next to Chez Panisse a homeless couple, bundled into a blue sleeping bag, sat up, **said**, "Good morning "and then the woman smiled, said, "Isn't it great just to be alive?" I agreed."

The key observation is that "said" is directly followed by a quoted speech ("Good morning") and another quoted speech ("Isn't it great just to be alive?"). This indicates that "said" is being used to introduce spoken words, i.e., to report what someone said.

Now, let's examine the candidate senses:

1. **express in words** (synonyms: state, tell) - This sense fits the context as it involves expressing something verbally, but it is quite broad.
2. **report or maintain** (synonyms: allege, aver) - This sense involves asserting something, which does not match the context of quoting speech.
3. **express a supposition** (synonyms: suppose) - This sense involves hypothesizing, which is unrelated to the context.
4. **have or contain a certain wording or form** (synonyms: read) - This sense relates to the content of a text, not to introducing spoken words.
5. **give instructions to or direct somebody to do something with authority** (synonyms: order, tell, enjoin) - This sense involves commanding, which does not apply here.
6. **speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way** (synonyms: pronounce, articulate) - This sense focuses on the manner of speaking, not on introducing quoted speech.
7. **communicate or express nonverbally** - This sense is about non-verbal communication, which contradicts the context.
8. **communicate or express nonverbally** (duplicate) - Same as above.
9. **state as one's opinion or judgement; declare** - This sense involves expressing an opinion, which is not the primary function of "said" here.
10. **recite or repeat a fixed text** (synonyms: say grace) - This sense involves reciting a set phrase, which is not the case.
11. **indicate** - This sense involves pointing out or showing, which does not fit.

The most appropriate sense is **utter aloud**, which specifically refers to introducing spoken words or dialogue. This aligns perfectly with the context where "said" precedes quoted speech.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is **sense_key=say%2:32:15::**, which corresponds to sense index 3.

**Answer:**
```json
{"sense_index": 3}

raw_output:
The context describes a homeless couple sitting outside a restaurant, with the woman of the couple smiling and commenting on life. This indicates a general adult female person, not specifically a wife, mistress, or domestic worker, and not referring to women as a class. Therefore, the most appropriate sense is:

**Definition:** an adult female person (as opposed to a man)
**Synonyms:** adult female
**Example:** the woman kept house while the man hunted

Thus, the best indexed sense corresponds to sense index 1.

Candidate senses:

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
The context describes a woman who, after saying "Good morning," "smiled" and then expressed a sentiment about life. The action of smiling here is clearly to convey a positive, pleased expression in response to the greeting and to share the sentiment "Isn't it great just to be alive?" This aligns with the definition of smiling as "change one's facial expression by spreading the lips, often to signal pleasure." The example "She smiled her thanks" corresponds to sense 2, but the context emphasizes the facial expression to signal pleasure rather than merely expressing thanks. Therefore, the best indexed sense is the one describing the facial expression to signal pleasure.

To determine the best sense for "said" in the context:

**Context:**
"I walked along Shattuck between Delaware and Cedar at a few minutes before eight this morning. Next to Chez Panisse a homeless couple, bundled into a blue sleeping bag, sat up, said, "Good morning "and then the woman smiled, <t>said</t>, "Isn't it great just to be alive? "I agreed."

**Analysis of the context:**
- The word "said" is used to introduce a quoted speech by the woman: *"Isn't it great just to be alive?"*
- This usage aligns with the act of expressing words or uttering something, i.e., conveying spoken words.

**Evaluation of candidate senses:**

1. **sense_key=say%2:32:00::** – *definition=express in words; synonyms=state, tell; examples=He said that he wanted to marry her; tell me what is bothering you.*
   - Matches the context where "said" introduces a direct quote.

2. **sense_key=say%2:32:01::** – *definition=report or maintain; synonyms=allege, aver; examples=He alleged that he was the victim of a crime.*
   - Not applicable; the context is about quoting speech, not reporting a claim.

3. **sense_key=say%2:32:03::** – *definition=express a supposition; synonyms=suppose; examples=Let us say that he did not tell the truth.*
   - Irrelevant; the context does not involve supposition.

4. **sense_key=say%2:42:00::** – *definition=have or contain a certain wording or form; synonyms=read; examples=What does the law say?*
   - Not relevant; "said" is not about containing wording.

5. **sense_key=say%2:32:04::** – *definition=give instructions to or direct somebody to do something with authority; synonyms=order, tell, enjoin.*
   - Not applicable; no directive is given.

6. **sense_key=say%2:32:02::** – *definition=speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way; synonyms=pronounce, articulate.*
   - While related to speaking, it emphasizes pronunciation rather than quoting.

7. **sense_key=say%2:32:07::** – *definition=communicate or express nonverbally.*
   - Not applicable; the context is verbal.

8. **sense_key=say%2:32:15::** – *definition=utter aloud; examples=She said `Hello' to everyone in the office.*
   - Close, but less specific than sense 1 for introducing a quote.

9. **sense_key=say%2:32:13::** – *definition=state as one's opinion or judgement.*
   - Not relevant; the context is a direct quote, not an opinion.

10. **sense_key=say%2:32:08::** – *definition=recite or repeat a fixed text.*
    - Not applicable; the quote is spontaneous, not a fixed text.

11. **sense_key=say%2:32:09::** – *definition=indicate.*
    - Not relevant.

**Conclusion:**
The best sense is **sense_key=say%2:32:00::**, which captures the act of expressing words through direct quotation, matching the context perfectly.

**Final JSON response:**
```json
{"sense_index": 1}

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "alive" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

> "Isn't it great just to be **alive**?"

The woman's statement reflects a profound appreciation for the simple fact of being alive, emphasizing the intrinsic value and joy of existence itself. This aligns closely with the definition of "alive" as **possessing life**, which captures the essence of the sentiment expressed.

Let's review the candidate senses:

1. **possessing life** (synonyms: live) - matches the idea of simply being alive and appreciating existence.
2. **full of life and spirit** - suggests liveliness or enthusiasm, which is a bit more dynamic than the straightforward appreciation implied.
3. **having life or vigor or spirit** - similar to the second sense, implying energy or animation, which is not the primary focus here.
4. **aware of** - does not fit the context of appreciating life itself.
5. **in operation** - unrelated to the personal, existential appreciation.
6. **mentally perceptive and responsive** - unrelated to the concept of being alive.
7. **capable of erupting** - metaphorical and unrelated to the literal appreciation of life.

Given the context, the most fitting sense is **possessing life**, which directly conveys the idea of simply being alive and finding it great.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 1}
```

raw_output:
The sentence "I <t>agreed</t>. It is." follows a statement by a woman about the joy of being alive. The response "I agreed" indicates personal assent or consent to the sentiment expressed, aligning with the definition of agreeing to a statement or opinion. This matches the sense where "agree" means "be in accord; be in agreement" or "consent or assent to a condition, or agree to something." The context of personal endorsement of a positive sentiment fits this sense best.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

raw_output:
The context describes a "document outlining ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 years," which refers to a series of steps or goals to be accomplished rather than a physical scale drawing or an arrangement scheme. The synonyms "program" and "programme" further support the interpretation of a plan as a series of steps or goals. Therefore, the best sense is the one defined as "a series of steps to be carried out or goals to be accomplished."

The corresponding sense index is 1.

Thus, the answer is:

**Context:**
"The U.N.-sponsored climate conference... outlined ambitious greenhouse-gas reductions over the next 40 **years**, with industrialized nations shouldering most of the burden in the near term."

**Analysis of Candidate Senses:**

1. **Sense 1:** "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days"
   - This sense refers to a calendar year, which fits the context of discussing a future time span (40 years) for climate action.

2. **Sense 2:** "a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity"
   - This sense is more specific to activities like a school year or fiscal year, which does not match the general time span discussed.

3. **Sense 3:** "the period of time that it takes for a planet to make a complete revolution around the sun"
   - This sense is about planetary orbits, clearly irrelevant to the context of climate policy.

4. **Sense 4:** "a body of students who graduate together"
   - This sense refers to a class or cohort, which is unrelated to the discussion of time spans for emissions reductions.

**Conclusion:**
The context clearly refers to a future time period (40 years) for implementing climate policies, aligning with the definition of a general time span of 365-366 days. Therefore, the best sense is **Sense 1**.

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "basis" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

"The text, which could provide the **basis** for a final political deal to regulate greenhouse gases..."

**Contextual Analysis:**
- The word "basis" here refers to something that serves as the underlying foundation or starting point for a final political agreement.
- The context involves a document that outlines a plan and could serve as the foundation for a political deal.

**Sense Evaluation:**
1. **Sense 1:** "a relation that provides the foundation for something" (footing, ground)
   - This sense focuses on a general relationship providing a foundation, which is broader and less specific to the context of a document serving as a foundation for a political deal.

2. **Sense 2:** "the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed or calculated or explained" (base, foundation, fundament, groundwork, cornerstone)
   - This sense directly aligns with the idea of a document providing the fundamental assumptions or foundation for a political deal, making it the most appropriate.

3. **Sense 3:** "the most important or necessary part of something" (base)
   - While this sense captures the idea of an essential part, it is less precise about the role of the document as a foundational element for a political agreement compared to Sense 2.

**Conclusion:**
The context most closely matches **Sense 2**, where "basis" is understood as the fundamental assumptions or foundation for the political deal.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "obstacles" in the given context, we analyze the surrounding text:

- The sentence states: "The text... highlighted the remaining **obstacles** as much as it illuminated a path forward."
- The context is about a U.N. climate conference discussing greenhouse-gas reductions and identifying challenges that need to be overcome to achieve progress.

**Analysis of Candidate Senses:**

1. **Sense 1:** "something immaterial that stands in the way and must be circumvented or surmounted"
   - Synonyms: obstruction
   - Examples: lack of imagination is an obstacle to one's advancement; the poverty of a district is an obstacle to good education.
   - This sense emphasizes immaterial factors that hinder progress, such as abstract or conceptual barriers.

2. **Sense 2:** "an obstruction that stands in the way (and must be removed or surmounted or circumvented)"
   - This sense is more general and includes both material and immaterial barriers, focusing on the need to remove, surmount, or circumvent the obstruction.

**Contextual Fit:**

- The context refers to "remaining obstacles" in the context of climate negotiations, which are likely **political, economic, or procedural** challenges rather than physical obstructions.
- The phrase "highlighted the remaining obstacles" suggests identifying **challenges that need to be addressed** to move forward, aligning with the idea of immaterial or conceptual barriers that must be surmounted.

**Conclusion:**

Given the focus on identifying challenges in a political and policy context, **Sense 1** best captures the meaning of "obstacles" here, as it refers to immaterial factors that stand in the way and must be surmounted.

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.

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "path" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

> "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."

**Contextual Analysis:**
- The phrase "a path forward" suggests a direction or course of action to address the obstacles and achieve the goal of regulating greenhouse gases.
- This usage implies a strategic or procedural route to move from the current state to a desired future state, rather than a physical route or a predefined way for a specific use.

**Sense Evaluation:**
1. **Sense 1: a course of conduct**
   - Definition: a course of conduct.
   - Synonyms: way, way of life.
   - Example: "the path of virtue."
   - Fits well with "a path forward," indicating a course or direction to follow.

2. **Sense 2: a way especially designed for a particular use**
   - Implies a specialized route, which does not align with the general strategic direction implied by "path forward."

3. **Sense 3: an established line of travel or access**
   - Refers to a physical or established route, which is less appropriate for the abstract, strategic sense used here.

4. **Sense 4: a line or route along which something travels or moves**
   - Focuses on movement of an entity (e.g., a hurricane), which does not match the abstract, forward-looking sense.

**Conclusion:**
The context most closely aligns with **Sense 1: a course of conduct**, as it captures the idea of a strategic direction or method to address the challenges outlined in the text.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 1}
```

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=negotiation%1:10:00:: | 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
2. sense_key=negotiation%1:04:00:: | definition=the activity or business of negotiating an agreement; coming to terms

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
The context describes a U.N.-sponsored climate conference where world leaders are arriving to discuss and potentially reach a political deal on greenhouse gas regulations. This situation involves a discussion aimed at producing an agreement, which aligns with the definition of "negotiation" as a discussion intended to produce an agreement. The synonyms "dialogue" and "talks" further support this interpretation, and the example "the buyout negotiation lasted several days" is conceptually similar to the climate negotiations described. Therefore, the best indexed sense is the first one.
