Definition: In this task, a passage will be given and the goal is to identify an event from the passage. An event is defined as a single word representing something that happened, is happening, or may happen. An event can be factual or hypothetical, positive or negative, certain or uncertain. While most events are based on verbs, an event can also be based on a noun (ex. storm, snow, rainfall) or a copula verb (is, was, been, etc.). The event must not be a pronoun or an adjective. For noun events with multiple words, use the last word in the phrase as event.
Input: Passage: High hopes for designing an exit strategy are being placed on a bipartisan commission created by the US Congress known as the Iraq Study Group, a 10-member panel of Washington notables co-chaired by former US secretary of state James Baker. The panel's advice is a major chance for the president to overhaul his Iraq policy, even though the recommendations are nonbinding.
