The correct order of the jumbled sentences is DACB.
- Sentence D is the first sentence because it introduces the main idea of the paragraph. It tells us that unhappiness and discontent spring not only from poverty but due to missing of the soul as there is nothing wrong with the body.
- Sentence A follows sentence D because it provides more information about the difference between man and other animals. It tells us that man is a strange creature fundamentally different from other animals.
- Sentence C follows sentence A because it provides more information about the unique qualities of man. It tells us that he has far horizons, invariable hopes, and spiritual powers.
- Sentence B follows sentence C because it provides an example of how unhappiness and discontent can arise from unfulfilled spiritual needs. It tells us that if these needs are undeveloped and unsatisfied, man may have all the comforts of the wealth, but will still feel that life is not worthwhile.
