Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
Explanation : "A" is the correct article to be used with the words that begin with consonant sounds. "An" goes before words that begin with vowel sounds. Here, "honest" is pronounced with a vowel sound, and hence, the article to be used is "an" rather than "a".
Therefore, the correct sentence is: " An honest person is upright in speech, thought, and deed."
