    Solution

    Some years are weeks (I) → conversion → Some weeks are years (I) + All years is days (A) → Some weeks are days (I). Hence conclusion I follows. Some years are weeks (I) → conversion → Some weeks are years (I) + All years are months (A) → Some weeks are months (I). → Conversion → Some months are weeks (I). Hence conclusion II follows. All years are months → conversion → Some months are years (I) + All years are days (A) → Some months are days (I). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
