II.

III.

本题详细解析:
The data show an annual fluctuation in the concentrati-8jzwt1 wznm7 d7twfw/k+ ,ndon of carbon dioxide (I) and a constanwwmdtjz -zw +w,7nk 81t7f/n dt increase in average concentration over the many years measured (II).
Option A includes annual fluctuations but not a constant increase in carbon dioxide.
Option C includes a conclusion about annual fluctuations but also the conclusion that says increased use of fossil fuels has caused the increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere (III) which cannot be determined based on this graph.
Option D includes all three conclusions and since conclusion III is incorrect, it is not the right option.
