Answer:
A It's better to be honest than to pretend to be something you're not.
Explanation:
From the book, Scout's honor, the main character tried to appear tougher than he actually was to his friends. He joined the Boy's scout. He reached Tenderfoot foot rank which was the lowest rank that is gotten by becoming a Scout.
He wanted to move to the next rank, but part of the requirement involved camping and our protagonist was yet to leave the city alone before. He decided to tell his friends, Horse and Max and they all agreed to go camping, just to appear tough. On their way to the camp, the group encountered a lot of problems which shows how unprepared they were. At the end of the day, they all admitted they undertook the foolhardy journey just to appear tough and decided to go home.
They were not honest about themselves not being tough and had to undertake a dangerous and ill planned journey.
