Explanation:

The phrase "pull the wool over someone's eyes" is an idiom. In the given sentence, the spy seemed trustworthy but was actually deceiving people. Idioms often have meanings that are not literal. Looking at the options:

• "to compliment someone because one wants something" is about flattery for gain, not relevant.
• "to start learning something" is about education, not deception.
• "to take a sweater off over one's head" is a literal action, not the idiomatic meaning.
• "to completely fool someone" fits the context of the spy deceiving (fooling) everyone.

Answer:

to completely fool someone
