    C Only I & III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All I, II & III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In Sentence I, 'ardent' is used correctly to describe someone who is passionate and enthusiastic about a cause, in this case, environmental conservation. In Sentence II, 'ardent' is used appropriately to describe strong feelings of love and enthusiasm, particularly for classical music. In Sentence III, 'ardent' is incorrectly used. 'Ardent' refers to a strong, passionate feeling, but it is not typically used to describe the sun's heat. The correct word here would be 'scorching' or 'blazing' to describe intense heat. Therefore, only Sentences I and II use the word correctly.
