Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The idiom "A fighting chance" refers to a situation where success is not guaranteed and will be difficult to achieve, but it is still possible if one makes a significant effort or "fights" for it.

It captures the two essential elements of the phrase: the possibility of success (a "chance") and the necessity of hard work or overcoming obstacles (the "fighting" or "struggle" part).
