The following is my question:
A big typhoon is coming; we had better make our hiking plan ____________.
(A) some other time (B) at one time or another
(C) some time or other (D) from time to time
The answer is (A), but how about (B) and (C)?
Would someone please help me with these three phrases?
Thanks a lot. |

The sentence is not correct without "for".
Only A is correct. |

2006 is right.
Without 'for', 'some other time' is linked to 'had better make'.
