Correct Answer: 1
Solution : The correct answer is the first option .
The adjective bright should be replaced with plain to convey the intended meaning that the person wore plain, simple, and appropriate clothing for the funeral. Bright clothes are used to depict happy or enjoyable occasions as opposed to plain clothes which are more suitable for a funeral where sombre attire is expected.
The second and the third options are rejected on the same premise.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "He was dressed in plain clothes for the funeral. "
