Which of these words is a synonym for "then"?

A bit embarrassing that I need to ask for help with my 9 year old son's homework, but I am stumped. He has to pick a synonym for "then" out of this list of words:

most

coat

ago

hold

hello

cocoa

open

loaf

over

comb

toast

almost

boat

both

road

gold

Thanks :)

    I think ago is the synonym, as it has the same meaning "years ago"

    I think "ago" is the most correct.

    As in: 'That is how it was back then.' Same kind of meaning as to what someone else said.

    I don't think it would be "over" as i think that refers to "than."

    e.g. 'I want chocolate rather than vanilla.'

    Hope that helps

    Dear Pinkle,

    I choose 'ago', as in - describing a period long ago - and referring to it as 'then'.

    Hope this helps!
