Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the given sentence.

It is my custom to get up early in the morning.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. habit.

The word 'custom' refers to a tradition or practice followed by a group of people or a community, often over a long period. On the other hand, 'habit' refers to a personal routine or behavior that an individual regularly practices.

The act of getting up early is a personal routine, not a shared tradition or cultural practice. Therefore, the word 'habit' is more appropriate in this context.

Hence, the correct sentence is:- It is my habit to get up early in the morning.
