Answer : 4. "to say anything"
Explanation :

The correct sentence should be:

She was too startled at first to say anything, but finally, she blurted out the truth.

Explanation: The phrase "to say something" is the appropriate choice here. The verb "startled" is typically followed by an infinitive verb form, so "to say" is used. Additionally, the sentence benefits from proper punctuation, including a comma after "first" and another after "finally."
