A Correct answer
Explanation

Something preposterous is absurd or contrary to commonsense. Similarly, something illegal is contrary to law. Both pairs show an adjective and the standard/norm it violates. Preposterous violates commonsense; illegal violates law. The relationship is 'quality violated by the adjective'. This is the closest parallel among options.
