Solution

The correct option is A PRQ
Since the first sentence tells about the farmer's insult of his neighbour, the next should tell in sequence about the farmer's realisation of his mistake, how he sought forgiveness, and what he did to repent for his mistake. The preacher told him to take a bag of feathers and drop them in the centre of the town. The farmer did as he was told." Therefore, option B is correct. The rest do not follow this sequence, hence these are incorrect.
