Choose the most appropriate option to fill in the blank in the given sentence:

Never maintain an argument with heat and clamour _______ you think or know yourself to be in the right.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

"Unless" means "except if". The sentence therefore means: do not argue with heat and noise except when you believe or know that you are right.

The complete sentence is: "Never maintain an argument with heat and clamour unless you think or know yourself to be in the right." So Option 3 is correct.
