Correct answer: d) Complimentary. The word "Scurrilous" means offensive, abusive, or vulgar, especially in speech or writing. To find its opposite, we need a word that conveys politeness or praise. Option A ("Coarse") is incorrect because it means rude or rough, which is similar to "scurrilous." Option B ("Sophisticated") is incorrect as it means refined or cultured, but it is not the direct opposite. Option C ("Insolent") is incorrect because it means disrespectful or rude, which is similar to "scurrilous." Option D ("Complimentary") is correct because it means expressing praise or admiration, which is the opposite of "scurrilous." Thus, the correct answer is D ("Complimentary").
