As for this problem, I believe that the first sentence, or probably believed to be as a clue in answering the problem, would be a misleading part and is actually quite tricky. The word commit usually pertains to two things and that is to do it or to be held responsible. What was just stated in the previous statement may not be the most accurate representation or definition of the word commit, but basically the idea of how it is usually used and what it represents in a sentence is there. So in the given sentence, the word committing would most probably mean holding.

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game: True Spy Stories from Invisible Ink to CIA Moles.

The CIA planning was extraordinary. Questions were asked. Problems were anticipated, solutions suggested. With information provided by an informant in the Soviet state-run telephone operation, the U.S. knew that the spot they needed to reach with the tunnel was under Schonefelder Chaussee, a major highway that ran along the southern edge of Berlin.

Which statement best describes the author’s viewpoint in the passage?

A. The US government planned a spy mission in Eastern Germany to obtain information.

B. The US government’s skillful use of research and intelligence enabled a vital spy mission.

C. The United States worked with other Allied countries to create a tunnel under a highway in Berlin.

D. The United States violated international rules of diplomacy when spying on the Russians in Berlin.

Answer:

The statement that best describes the author's viewpoint in the passage is:

B. The US government’s skillful use of research and intelligence enabled a vital spy mission.

Explanation:

The passage we are analyzing here makes a clear compliment to the US government abilities in espionage. It uses a specific occurrence, a certain plan that was executed, to show how the combination of research and intelligence was successful. In order to make its plan succeed, the US would use everything and everyone available, even informants in rival countries. Studying, anticipating problems, proposing solutions, carrying it all out with attention to details, all of that made it an extraordinary planning. Having that in mind, we can safely choose letter B as the best option.
