Which sentence is correct after the expression “It is time”? ![](https://qallery.app/diagrams/v2_417876fda3c2/img-057.jpeg)

AIt is time we start working.
BIt is time we had started working.
CIt is time we started working.
DIt is time we will start working.
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. It is time we started working.
After “It is time” or “It is high time,” English uses the past simple form: “It is time we started working.” The past form does not indicate past time here; it expresses that the action should begin now. That is why option C is correct.
