B Correct answer

Hackneyed means overused, clichéd, or lacking originality, which is the opposite of exceptional (unusual, outstanding, or special). Refined means polished, external means outside, and derange means to disturb - but hackneyed directly contrasts with the uniqueness implied by exceptional.
