The correct answer is Option (4) - BDAC

The correct order of the jumbled sentences is BDAC.

• Overcome by greed, the brother threatened to cut the entire tree if it didn’t provide him with more apples. This is the first sentence because it introduces the topic of the passage, which is the story of a greedy brother and a magical apple tree.
• But, instead of giving more apples, the tree showered him with hundreds of tiny needles. This sentence follows the first sentence because it explains how the tree responded to the brother's greed.
• The brother fell to the ground, crying in pain as the sun began to set. This sentence comes after the second sentence because it describes the consequences of the brother's actions.
• if it didn’t provide him with more apples. This sentence concludes the passage by summarizing the moral of the story.
