Choose the most appropriate option to complete the given sentence:

The train is expected to arrive __ time, so make sure to be ready.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Option 1 -> "In time" means with time to spare before a deadline, but doesn't work with "expected to arrive" in this context.

Option 2 -> "On time" is the correct idiomatic expression meaning punctually or at the scheduled time.

Option 3 -> "At time" is not a valid English phrase or collocation.

Option 4 -> "By time" is grammatically incorrect in this context and not a standard expression.


Hence, Option 2: on -> "On time" is the fixed expression used to indicate that something happens at the scheduled or expected time, making it the appropriate choice for describing a train's punctual arrival -> correct
