Choose the word or group of customary that is most nearly opposite in meaning to the underlined words
It is quite customary to introduce the guest speaker but ___ to insult him.
Explanation
“Customary” means usual or expected by tradition.
The sentence says it is customary to introduce a guest speaker “but ___ to insult him”. The blank needs the opposite: “unusual”.
“Impolite” and “illegal” describe the insult, not whether it is usual.
