      A conventional Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B mysterious Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C unusual Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D ordinary Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The word "eccentric" means strange or unconventional in behavior. We need a synonym that closely matches this meaning.

      Conventional means typical or ordinary, which is the opposite of eccentric.

      Mysterious implies something difficult to understand, but not necessarily unconventional.
      Unusual correctly matches the meaning of "eccentric", indicating something out of the ordinary.
      Ordinary is opposite of eccentric; implies something normal or usual.
