A Correct answer
Explanation

'At the eleventh hour' is a biblical idiom referring to the last possible moment before something happens, similar to workers hired at the eleventh hour in a parable. 'At the last moment' is the correct interpretation. The other options ('at the start', 'in between', 'at the corner') are completely unrelated to the idiom's meaning.
