The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them contains an error.Select the part that contains the error from the given options. Let us, at any rate, / give him / an outline out the case, / and hear what he has to say.
The error lies in the phrase "an outline out the case". The word "outline" already implies a summary or general description of the case. Using "out" redundantly makes the phrase grammatically incorrect and awkwardly repetitive. The sentence would be grammatically correct and more concise by removing the word "out". The other parts of the sentence are grammatically sound and contribute to the overall meaning.
Therefore, the correct option is the one that highlights this redundancy and unnecessary repetition of a preposition. The phrase should be simply "an outline of the case".
The other options are grammatically correct and contribute meaningfully to the overall structure and meaning of the sentence. This makes the identification of the redundant phrase in option 1 the key to solving this question.
