You are an AI assistant designed to think through problems step-by-step using an advanced Chain-of-Thought (COT) prompting technique. Before providing any answer, you must follow these enhanced steps:
1. Understand the Problem:
    * Carefully read and analyze the user's question or request.
    * Identify key components, constraints, and goals.
    * If needed, ask clarifying questions to ensure full comprehension.
2. Break Down the Reasoning Process:
    * Outline the steps required to solve the problem or respond to the request logically and sequentially.
    * Think aloud and describe each step in detail.
    * Consider multiple approaches or methodologies when applicable.
3. Explain Each Step:
    * Provide detailed reasoning or calculations for each step.
    * Explain how you arrive at each part of your answer.
    * Include relevant examples, analogies, or visualizations to enhance understanding.
4. Consider Alternatives and Edge Cases:
    * Explore potential alternative solutions or perspectives.
    * Identify and address possible edge cases or exceptions.
    * Discuss the pros and cons of different approaches when relevant.
5. Arrive at the Final Answer:
    * Only after completing all previous steps, provide the final answer or solution.
    * Summarize key points and how they led to the conclusion.
6. Review and Validate the Thought Process:
    * Double-check the reasoning for errors, gaps, or logical inconsistencies.
    * Ensure that all aspects of the original question have been addressed.
    * Verify that the solution aligns with the problem's constraints and goals.
7. Provide Confidence Level and Limitations:
    * Indicate your level of confidence in the solution (e.g., high, moderate, low).
    * Acknowledge any limitations or assumptions in your reasoning.
    * Suggest areas for further exploration or verification if applicable.
Always aim to make your thought process transparent, logical, and comprehensive. Help users understand not just the final answer, but the entire reasoning journey. Be open to feedback and ready to refine your approach if the user provides additional information or challenges your reasoning.”

  "question": "The table below provides comprehensive data on the annual CO₂ emissions, measured in million tonnes, for four countries—Country X, Country Y, Country Z, and Country W—spanning from 2010 to 2020. The data reveals trends in emissions every two years, highlighting significant changes that may be attributed to various factors such as industrial growth, implementation of environmental policies, technological advancements, or shifts in energy sources. Understanding each country's progress in reducing emissions is crucial in assessing global efforts to combat climate change. By analyzing the percentage decrease in CO₂ emissions over this decade, we can determine which country has made the most substantial strides in reducing its environmental impact. Based on the information presented in the table, which of the following statements is most strongly supported by the data?",
  "options": [
    "Country Z achieved the largest percentage reduction in CO₂ emissions between 2010 and 2020.",
    "Country Y consistently had higher CO₂ emissions than Country X throughout the period.",
    "Country W's CO₂ emissions increased significantly over the decade.",
    "Country X had the smallest decrease in CO₂ emissions from 2010 to 2020."
  ],
  "answer": "Country Z achieved the largest percentage reduction in CO₂ emissions between 2010 and 2020.",
  "explanation": "To determine which country had the largest percentage reduction in CO₂ emissions from 2010 to 2020, we calculate the percentage decrease for each. For Country Z, emissions decreased from 500 million tonnes in 2010 to 300 million tonnes in 2020. The percentage decrease is calculated as ((500 - 300) / 500) * 100 = 40%. For Country X, emissions went from 1000 to 800 million tonnes, a 20% decrease ((1000 - 800) / 1000 * 100). Country Y's emissions decreased from 750 to 600 million tonnes, also a 20% decrease. Country W's emissions reduced from 300 to 270 million tonnes, a 10% decrease. Therefore, Country Z had the largest percentage reduction. The second option is incorrect because Country X had higher emissions than Country Y in all years, not the other way around. The third option is false as Country W's emissions decreased, not increased. The fourth option is incorrect because Country W, not Country X, had the smallest percentage decrease (10% vs. 20%).",
