Correct Answer: get off his horse quick as


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation : The correct phrase should be "get off his horse as quickly as". In this context, "quickly" is an adverb modifying the verb "get off", describing how the action is performed. The error lies in using "quick as" instead of "quickly". The correct adverbial form is needed to indicate the manner in which the man gets off his horse.
