💡 Explanation:
The phrase should be 'make up the lost time' not 'make out'. 'Make up' means to compensate, recover, or restore something that was lost (like time). 'Make out' means to discern/identify something unclear (like 'make out the figure in the fog') or to engage in kissing. The error is in part [a] of the sentence.
