Question

Luckily, help arrived in the nick of time. The idiom means:

• A. in a moment
• B. in olden times
• C. at the right moment
• D. too late

Answer 1

Answer:

C. at the right moment

Yes, you are correct! The idiom "in the nick of time" means "at the right moment" or "just in time", often when something is about to go wrong, but help or intervention comes right before it's too late. In the context of the sentence, it means that help arrived just when it was needed most.
