B. You have probably heard or read at least one fairy tale with a dragon as a character.

C. In these stories, dragons fly around breathing fire and frightening innocent people, until a brave knight comes along and kills the dragon.

D. But there is no proof that these fairy tale dragons ever existed.

Answer

Correct Answer : a ) BCDA

Explanation :

The given paragraph is about the fairy tales and stories and the characters we have heard of in our childhood days.

The first sentence will be B as it states that we might have heard of fairy tales and dragons. The rest of the sentences talks further about it.
And in C, about such stories is mentioned that in these stories, dragons fly around torturing people. C will follow B
Next, contradicting C's statement is D with the keyword 'but.' It discusses that there is no certainty that these dragons existed.
And at last, in A, further contrast is expressed by stating that one real dragon, i.e., the Komodo dragon exists.

Hence, (a), i.e., BCDA is the correct answer.
