Correct Answer: falsehood


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation: Falsehood means a false statement or lie. In the context of the sentence, it accurately conveys the idea of someone telling a lie.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Blasphemy: It refers to speaking sacrilegiously about sacred or religious matters.

  • Whooper: It is not a commonly used word to refer to lies or falsehoods, and it doesn't fit well in the sentence.

  • Perjury: It refers to the act of lying or making false statements under oath or in a legal context.
