Correct Answer: At time when you cannot think carefully


Solution : The correct option will be the first option.

The idiom " in the heat of the moment " refers to a situation where strong emotions, such as anger, excitement, or stress, temporarily override one's ability to think calmly and rationally. In the sentence provided, the remarks were made impulsively and without careful consideration, likely driven by intense emotions occurring at that specific moment.

Therefore, the correct answer will be: At time when you cannot think carefully.
