'to be transported in time' means __________.

  • A.travel backwards
  • B.to indulge in time travel
  • C.recollect memories of the past
  • D.to take future decisions

Answer: C

'To be transported in time' means to recollect memories of the past.

The phrase is figurative: a sight, sound or smell carries a person's mind back to an earlier period, so that they vividly remember it. It describes remembering, not actual movement.

'Travel backwards' and 'indulge in time travel' take the figure literally, as if the person physically went back in time, and 'take future decisions' points the wrong way in time altogether.
