Correct Answer: The warrior was waiting for the right time to attack the lion hiding in the cave.


Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

The definite article indicates a specific thing. In this context, there is only one warrior and there can be only some particular right time . Since the singular lion is used, it means there is just one lion . These words must be preceded by the definite article " the" . The other options use indefinite articles, making the sentences incorrect.
