Question:

Choose the correct meaning of the idiom "at the eleventh hour".

1.
at exactly eleven o'clock at night
2.
at the last possible moment before a deadline
3.
during the eleventh hour of a long and tiring journey
4.
at a time when nobody is watching or paying attention

Correct Answer: at the last possible moment before a deadline

The idiom means at the latest possible moment, just in time — option (b). The literal reading of "eleventh hour" misleads toward (a) and (c).
