C Correct answer
Explanation

Mediocre means average or moderate in quality - neither exceptionally good nor exceptionally bad. This directly corresponds to being neither intelligent (very good) nor dull (very bad). Tolerable means endurable, commoner refers to an ordinary person, and diligent means hardworking - none of which capture this middle-ground meaning.
