raw_output:
The context describes an "old lady and her very old <t>mother</t>" staying in a guest room due to a damaged building. This clearly refers to a familial relationship, specifically a woman who is the parent of the old lady. The most appropriate sense is therefore the one describing a woman who has given birth to a child, often addressed as "mother" to her own children or in familial contexts.

Thus, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 1}

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

- **Context**: "Books and software everywhere. This being typed in a standing position."
- **Implication**: The mention of "Books" alongside "software" suggests a setting where various items, likely physical objects, are present. The phrase "everywhere" indicates a collection or assemblage of these items.

**Evaluation of Candidate Senses**:

1. **Sense 1**: A written work or composition (e.g., "I am reading a good book on economics"). This implies individual literary works, not necessarily a collection of items.
2. **Sense 2**: Physical objects consisting of a number of pages bound together (e.g., "he used a large book as a doorstop"). This directly matches the idea of items being present "everywhere," as books are tangible objects.
3. **Sense 3**: A compilation of known facts or a record (e.g., "his name is in all the record books"). While plausible, the context does not suggest a record or factual compilation.
4. **Sense 4**: A written version of a play or dramatic composition. This is unlikely given the context of physical items.
5. **Sense 5**: A record for commercial accounts. The context does not involve financial records.
6. **Sense 6**: A collection of playing cards. The context does not mention cards.
7. **Sense 7**: A collection of rules or standards. The context does not imply a rulebook.
8. **Sense 8**: The sacred writings of Islam. The context is unrelated to religious texts.
9. **Sense 9**: The sacred writings of Christianity. Similarly unrelated to the context.
10. **Sense 10**: A major division of a long written composition. This does not fit the physical presence implied.
11. **Sense 11**: A number of sheets (ticket or stamps) bound together. While similar to books, the context of "software everywhere" suggests a broader collection of physical items, not specifically tickets or stamps.

**Conclusion**: The most fitting sense is **Sense 2**, which describes physical objects consisting of pages bound together, aligning with the idea of books being present alongside software in a physical setting.

**Final Answer**:
```json
{"sense_index": 2}
```

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

raw_output:
The context describes "This being <t>typed</t> in a standing position," which clearly refers to the act of writing or producing text, likely on a typewriter or computer keyboard. The synonym "typewrite" and the example "type the acceptance letter, please" support this interpretation. The second sense, which involves categorizing or identifying something as belonging to a certain type, does not fit the context.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is the one that means "write by means of a keyboard with types."

**Answer:**
```json

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

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

"It's hard to believe this really is happening. 1:11 a.m. RD: Building on the corner severely damaged, so an old lady and her very old mother are in the guest room. Books and software everywhere. This being typed in a <t>standing</t> position. 1:20 a.m."

The phrase "typed in a <t>standing</t> position" suggests that the person is typing while on their feet, i.e., in an upright posture. This aligns with the definition of "standing" as "of persons on the feet; having the torso in an erect position supported by straight legs."

Let's review the candidate senses:

1. **Erect (supporting base)**: Refers to objects like a lamp, not applicable to a person's posture.
2. **Permanent (not created for a particular occasion)**: Refers to entities like a committee, unrelated to posture.
3. **Fluids not moving or flowing**: Refers to water, irrelevant to the context.
4. **Executed in or initiated from a standing position**: Pertains to actions like a race start, not directly describing the current posture.
5. **On the feet; having the torso in an erect position supported by straight legs**: Directly matches the description of typing while upright.
6. **Permanent (regular)**: Similar to sense 2, unrelated to posture.

The context clearly describes the person's posture while typing, making sense 5 the most appropriate.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 5}
```

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "feel" in the context "Didn't <t>feel</t> a thing, but noticed some strange bird behavior," we analyze the sentence:

- The phrase "Didn't feel a thing" suggests a lack of perception or sensation.
- The context involves noticing unusual bird behavior, implying a sensory observation rather than an emotional state or belief.
- The most fitting sense is one that involves perceiving through physical sensation or being conscious of a state.

Among the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=feel%2:37:00::** (experience an emotional sensation) - Not suitable, as the context is not about emotions.
2. **sense_key=feel%2:31:00::** (come to believe on emotional grounds) - Not relevant, as it pertains to belief, not perception.
3. **sense_key=feel%2:39:00::** (perceive by a physical sensation, e.g., coming from the skin or muscles) - Fits well, as it involves perceiving something through physical means, aligning with "didn't feel a thing."
4. **sense_key=feel%2:29:00::** (be conscious of a state) - Could apply, but it is broader and less specific to the lack of sensation described.
5. **sense_key=feel%2:31:01::** (have a feeling about oneself) - Not relevant to the context.
6. **sense_key=feel%2:39:01::** (undergo passive experience) - Less specific than sense 3 for the given context.
7. **sense_key=feel%2:42:00::** (be felt in a certain way) - Implies a subjective perception, which doesn't match "didn't feel a thing."
8. **sense_key=feel%2:39:10::** (grope or feel in search of something) - Not applicable.
9. **sense_key=feel%2:35:00::** (examine by touch) - Not relevant to the lack of sensation.
10. **sense_key=feel%2:35:01::** (examine by palpation) - Not applicable.
11. **sense_key=feel%2:40:00::** (find by testing) - Not relevant.
12. **sense_key=feel%2:39:09::** (produce a certain impression) - Not fitting.
13. **sense_key=feel%2:35:11::** (pass one's hands over sexual organs) - Clearly inappropriate.

The best match is **sense_key=feel%2:39:00::**, which involves perceiving through physical sensation, aligning with the phrase "didn't feel a thing."

Therefore, the correct sense index is 3.

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "thing" in the context "Didn't feel a <t>thing</t>, but noticed some strange bird behavior.", we analyze the surrounding information:

- The phrase "Didn't feel a <t>thing</t>" suggests that the speaker did not perceive any noticeable event or occurrence.
- The context involves noticing "strange bird behavior," implying that the speaker is contrasting the lack of a perceptible event with an observed phenomenon.
- The most fitting sense is one that captures the idea of a perceptible event or occurrence that was absent.

Reviewing the candidate senses:

1. **Special situation** – Doesn't fit the context of absence.
2. **Action** – Doesn't align with the passive "didn't feel."
3. **Special abstraction** – Too abstract for the specific context.
4. **Artifact** – Unrelated to the lack of perception.
5. **Event** – Directly matches the idea of a perceptible occurrence that was not felt.
6. **Vaguely specified concern** – Doesn't capture the lack of perception.
7. **Statement regarded as an object** – Irrelevant.
8. **Entity not named specifically** – Could fit, but "event" is more precise for the context.
9. **Attribute or quality** – Not applicable.
10. **Special objective** – Unrelated.
11. **Persistent illogical feeling** – Not relevant.
12. **Persistent illogical feeling of desire or aversion** – Not relevant.

The best match is **sense_key=thing%1:11:00::**, which defines "thing" as **an event**. This sense aligns with the context of not perceiving any event.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 5}

To determine the best sense for "noticed" in the context "Didn't feel a thing, but **noticed** some strange bird behavior," we analyze the surrounding information and the candidate senses:

1. **Context Analysis**: The speaker did not feel any tremors (related to the San Andreas Fault) but observed unusual behavior in ducks. The key action here is the observation of bird behavior, which implies perceiving or detecting something.

2. **Synonym and Example Review**:
   - **Sense 1**: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" with synonyms like detect, observe, find, discover. Example: "She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water." This aligns well with observing strange bird behavior.
   - **Sense 2**: "notice or perceive" with synonyms mark, note. Example: "She noted that someone was following her." This also fits, as it involves perceiving something.
   - **Sense 3**: "make or write a comment on" with synonyms comment, remark, point out. This does not fit because the context is about observation, not commentary.
   - **Sense 4**: "express recognition of the presence or existence of, or acquaintance with" with synonym acknowledge. This does not fit because the context is about observing behavior, not acknowledging something.

3. **Choosing the Best Sense**: The most appropriate sense is the one that directly relates to perceiving or detecting an observation, which is **Sense 1** ("discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of"). The synonym "observe" and the example of detecting lead levels closely match the act of noticing strange bird behavior.

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

**JSON Response**:

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "strange" in the context "Didn't feel a thing, but noticed some <t>strange</t> bird behavior. Duck swarms," we analyze the context and compare it with the provided senses:

1. **Sense 1**: "being definitely out of the ordinary and unexpected; slightly odd or even a bit weird."
   - Synonyms: unusual
   - Examples: a strange exaltation; a strange fantastical mind
   - This sense fits well with "strange bird behavior," indicating that the bird behavior is odd or unusual.

2. **Sense 2**: "not known before; unfamiliar."
   - Synonyms: unknown
   - Examples: used many strange words; saw many strange faces in the crowd
   - This sense would imply the birds are unfamiliar or unknown, which doesn't align as closely with the context of unusual behavior.

3. **Sense 3**: "relating to or originating in or characteristic of another place or part of the world; foreign."
   - Synonyms: foreign
   - Examples: foreign nations; a foreign accent
   - This sense suggests the birds are from another place, which is not indicated by the context.

Given the context emphasizes the odd or unusual nature of the bird behavior rather than unfamiliarity or foreign origin, **Sense 1** is the most appropriate.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

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

raw_output:
The context mentions "strange <t>bird</t> behavior" and "Duck swarms," which clearly refers to actual birds (the creatures) exhibiting unusual behavior, likely in the context of observing wildlife near the San Andreas Fault. The other senses (fowl as food, informal terms for a woman, a cry of disapproval, or a badminton shuttlecock) do not fit the context of observing wildlife behavior. Therefore, the best sense is the one describing a warm-blooded egg-laying vertebrate with feathers and wings.

The sense that matches this description is:

**sense_key=bird%1:05:00:: | definition=warm-blooded egg-laying vertebrates characterized by feathers and forelimbs modified as wings**

Thus, the correct sense index is 1.

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "numb" in the given context, we analyze the surrounding text and the candidate senses:

**Context:**
"Didn't feel a thing, but noticed some strange bird behavior. Duck swarms. 3:25 a.m. SAMURAI: I just felt another aftershock a few seconds ago. I'm just <t>numb</t>. 3:25 a.m."

**Analysis of Context:**
- The speaker mentions feeling an aftershock and then describes themselves as "numb."
- The phrase "didn't feel a thing" suggests a lack of sensation or feeling, which aligns with the idea of being insensible to physical stimuli.
- The context does not imply emotional insensitivity or fear; rather, it focuses on the physical inability to feel.

**Evaluation of Candidate Senses:**

1. **Sense 1: lacking sensation**
   - **Definition:** lacking sensation
   - **Synonyms:** asleep, benumbed
   - **Examples:** my foot is asleep; numb with cold
   - **Fit to Context:** The speaker's inability to feel after an aftershock fits this sense well, as it describes a physical insensibility.

2. **Sense 2: insensitive**
   - **Definition:** (followed by `to') not showing human feeling or sensitivity; unresponsive
   - **Synonyms:** dead
   - **Examples:** passersby were dead to our plea for help; numb to the cries for mercy
   - **Fit to Context:** This sense would imply emotional or social insensitivity, which is not suggested by the context.

3. **Sense 3: afraid**
   - **Definition:** so frightened as to be unable to move; stunned or paralyzed with terror; petrified
   - **Examples:** too numb with fear to move
   - **Fit to Context:** While the context mentions an aftershock, there is no indication of fear or terror; the speaker simply describes a lack of feeling, not a state of fright.

**Conclusion:**
The context most closely aligns with **Sense 1: lacking sensation**, as it directly describes the physical insensibility following an aftershock.

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

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

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, we analyze the sentence:

"Downtown Bolinas <t>seems</t> to be the part of town that's worst off. No power, minimal phones, and a mess of mayonnaise, wine, and everything else all over the floors of the big old general store and the People's Co-op."

The phrase "seems to be the part of town that's worst off" suggests that the speaker is **observing** and **concluding** based on appearances or evidence that Downtown Bolinas appears to be in the most difficult situation compared to other areas. This aligns with the definition of "seem" as **giving a certain impression or having a certain outward aspect**.

Let's review the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=seem%2:39:00::** - "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect" (synonyms: look, appear). This matches the context where the speaker is describing an outward impression based on observed conditions (no power, mess, etc.).
2. **sense_key=seem%2:39:01::** - "seem to be true, probable, or apparent" (synonyms: appear). This is close but more focused on the truth or probability of something being true, which is slightly broader than the specific impression being conveyed.
3. **sense_key=seem%2:42:00::** - "appear to exist". This sense is about the existence of something, which doesn't fit the context of describing a condition or impression.
4. **sense_key=seem%2:39:02::** - "appear to one's own mind or opinion". This sense is more about personal perception, which is less direct than the observed conditions described.

Given the context, the most appropriate sense is **sense_key=seem%2:39:00::**, which corresponds to the definition of "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect."

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

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

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 "the quivers move through my house every few minutes at <t>unpredictable</t> intervals," indicating that the quivers are not occurring at expected or regular times. This aligns with the definition "not occurring at expected times" and the synonym "irregular." Therefore, the best sense is the one that captures this meaning of irregular or sporadic timing.

The appropriate sense is:

- sense_key=unpredictable%5:00:00:sporadic:00 | definition=not occurring at expected times | synonyms=irregular

Thus, the best indexed sense is sense index 3.
