Correct option - 3

Let's find out the meaning of following words:-

Cuss - an annoying or stubborn person or animal.

Slur - speak (words) indistinctly so that the sounds run into one another.

Heckle - To harass (a public speaker, performer, etc.) with rude questions, jibes, etc.

Dither - be indecisive; fluctuate; hesitate.

Dismal - causing a mood of gloom or depression.

Firstly, 1st sentence should be filled with a verb. So, option 1 is clearly eliminated. And, 'slur' is out of context. Hence, option 2 is eliminated. Now, the crowd get hesitate to interrupt him with angry questions are completely opposite. Hence, option 4 is eliminated. according to 2nd statement, between 'heckle' and 'dismal', offending comments are used to harass someone. Thus, option 5 is eliminated. Thus, option 3 i.e. heckle is the correct answer.
