Consider the following text to answer the question.
Global temperatures in 2025 were slightly lower than in 2024 because of La Niña, a natural weather pattern that cools the Pacific Ocean.
Even so, 2025 became the third warmest year ever recorded. The last three years were the hottest in history, which shows a clear long-term warming trend. Scientists say today’s temperatures stay far above levels from before the heavy use of fossil fuels.
Experts explain that this warming happens mainly because people continue to release carbon emissions. Although some cooling came from natural causes, it didn’t stop the overall rise. Scientists warn that more heat records and stronger weather events will follow if emissions don’t fall quickly. Fires, floods, and heat waves have already affected many parts of the world.
Researchers say the science is very clear and not uncertain. Governments, companies, and individuals all play a role. People can vote, spend money carefully, and support cleaner energy. Reducing emissions soon can help slow warming and protect the planet.

Based on the causal reasoning and argumentative progression developed in the text, the cooling observed in 2025 is best characterized as:
- A structural climatic shift capable of reversing the long-established trajectory of global temperature increase.
- Definitive evidence that cyclical ocean-atmospheric phenomena outweigh anthropogenic emissions in shaping contemporary climate patterns.
- A stabilizing development sufficient to offset the projected escalation of extreme weather events in subsequent years.
- An empirical indication that the scientific consensus surrounding long-term global warming remains inconclusive.
- A temporary temperature decline attributable to natural variability that did not modify the persistent long-term warming trend.

Comentário do professor
A alternativa aponta que o resfriamento de 2025 foi uma queda temporária decorrente da variabilidade natural, o que está alinhado ao texto: o fenômeno citado é a La Niña, descrita como um padrão natural que resfria o Pacífico.
O comentário do texto esclarece que, apesar desse resfriamento pontual, 2025 foi ainda o terceiro ano mais quente já registrado e que os três últimos anos foram os mais quentes da história. Isso mostra que a oscilação não alterou a trajetória geral.
Além disso, o texto atribui a causa principal do aquecimento às emissões humanas e afirma que o resfriamento não modificou a tendência persistente de aquecimento de longo prazo. Assim, a alternativa resume corretamente a lógica causal e a progressão argumentativa apresentada.
