As a way to acquire something, used as a verb it usually referrs to an illness or malady.

EX "I think I may have contracted strep throat from kids at school."

"Some how Sally contracted all the test answers by sneaking in and stealing them when the teachers weren't around.

"Unprotected sex is a good way to contract a std."

When you feel your heart beat, you are feeling the muscles of the heart contract in order to push the blood from one chamber to another, or to an artery.
