Correct Answer: laden with


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

"Laden with" is a more precise and idiomatic phrase to describe a tree heavy with fruit. "Laden with" means "heavily loaded or burdened with" which perfectly conveys the idea that the apple tree is filled with fruit.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: The apple tree was laden with fruit.
