Brief Explanations

The graph shows that the levels of sulfur - dioxide and smoke, as well as the number of deaths, peak around December 7 - 8. This indicates that air pollution (represented by sulfur - dioxide and smoke) peaked during this time. There is no information about acid rain in the graph. The graph does not show that smoke caused more deaths than sulfur - dioxide, nor does it compare the time sulfur - dioxide and smoke remain in the air.

Answer:

Air pollution peaked between December 7 and December 8
