Answer:

b. Becoming greedy, and reaching for too much, can result in losing everything

Step-by-step explanation:

The tale "How much land a Man Need? by Leo Tolstoy tries and exposes the theme of how greed can turn men into the worst version of themselves making them loose their mind by always wanting to have more and more, in the end of the story the protagonist, Pahom, ends up dying because of his greedy ambitions, and the moral of the fable is that in the end he only needed 6 feet of land above his head.
