选项 A、conventional
B、traditional
C、customary
D、habitual
答案 B
解析 考查词义辨析。这四个形容词的名词形式分别是tradition，convention，custom及 habit。tradition指代代相传的行为方式或是知识，暗含这个传统确立时间已久，具有一定的约束力；convention指约定俗成的规则或是行为方式；custom指某个群体或社会的行为模式，但没有tradition那样的约束力；habit指个人的重复行为，反复重复，以至于成了一种不由自主的行为。这里traditional为最佳选项，意思是说：许多人并不重视传统的男性军人角色。
