Model Answer

(B) within

The correct answer is within, as it means "inside a time limit," which fits the context of meeting expectations in a given time period.

Explanation

"Within" is used to express something done inside a boundary or limit — especially time. "Along" means beside/together, "between" refers to two distinct points, and "into" suggests movement or transformation. Only "within the given time period" is grammatically and contextually correct.
