    Explanation:

    - The sentence talks about a current, ongoing situation regarding the government's promises and the reality of child labor eradication.

    - Option 1: "were" - This is a past tense plural form, which doesn’t match the singular subject “truth” or the ongoing nature of the situation.

    - Option 2: "are" - This is a present tense plural form, which doesn’t match the singular noun “truth.”

    - Option 3: "was" - This is a past tense singular form, which doesn't fit as it's talking about an ongoing current situation.

    - Option 4: "is" - This matches the singular noun “truth” and the present tense, ongoing nature of the statement.
