B-path should be the answer, cos all have 'd' sound, while only path and healthy has 't' sound.

Healthy: /'hel.θi/, Father: /ˈfaː.ðə/
path: /pæθ/. Path has the same /θ/ as Healthy! Path is the correct answer!!

The selected answer is wrong:
The pronunciation for "th" in healthy is theta sound which is the same sound as the "th" in path. The, that and father have their "th" pronounced as 'd'. Therefore the answer ought to be option B. path.
