    B to only a few, but his Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C reputation among Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D them is very great. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The conjunction "but" is unnecessary here.The word "although" already introduces a contrast, so using "but" creates redundancy.The correct sentence should be: "Although he is known to only a few, his reputation among them is very great."
