Q: Some say Lili just joined the debate team out of a love with the sound of her own voice.
I think the best answer is Option E.
The above construct in the question is wrong at 2 places - "Lilly just joined.." & "Out of a love with..."
"Lily just joined" is wrong simply because it gives the wrong meaning - "just joined" implies she joined very recently, but here we are trying to give a reason for why she joined (not when she joined) so the correct format is "only joined" (otherwise she would not have joined)
The second part is wrong because the correct structure is "Love for .." is the way to use it. "Love for my country" & not "Love with my country"
Hope it helps!

We can rewrite the sentence as "Some say Lili just joined the debate team because a love with the sound of her own voice". We say "a love for something", not "a love with something" so A, D are incorrect.
Lili joined the team for a reason: "because a love with the sound of her own voice", B and C are incorrect because "just joined" express that Lili joined the team recently.
So E is the correct answer choice.
