The correct answer is Option 1.
When we connect the sentences to form a paragraph, it is important to establish a connection between them.
- Sentence B marks the introduction to the paragraph. The subject '1st Olympics were held in 776 B.C. in Greece'.
- The relative pronoun 'their' in Sentence A connects with B stating that the Olympics glory spread far and wide.
- A contradiction is seen in Sentence D that with Christianity the games lost their importance.
- Sentence C is a direct relation with D stating that Christians believed that they encouraged pagan worship in temples.
- Thus the correct order is BADC.
