  • 2. 

    .. people prefer to stay at home than go out at the weekend.

    • Much

    • Many

    • Lots

    • A lot

    Correct Answer
    A. Many
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "many" because it is used to refer to a large number of countable objects or people. In this sentence, "people" is a countable noun, so "many" is the appropriate word to indicate a large number of individuals who prefer to stay at home rather than go out on the weekend.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Can you get some bread when you get home? There isn't ... left.

    • Many

    • Much

    • Lots

    • Lot of

    Correct Answer
    A. Much
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "much" because the sentence is referring to an uncountable noun, which is bread in this case. Uncountable nouns cannot be pluralized or quantified with numbers, so we use "much" to indicate a large quantity or amount.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    There were twice as ...women as men in the room.

    • Much

    • Many

    • Lots

    • Lot of

    Correct Answer
    A. Many
    Explanation
    The word "many" is the correct answer because it is used to describe a large number of countable objects, such as people. In this case, it indicates that there were a large number of women compared to men in the room. The other options, "much," "lots," and "lot of," are not suitable for describing countable objects and would be incorrect in this context.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    ... of her friends live in Poland.

    • Much

    • Many

    • Lot

    • A lots

    Correct Answer
    A. Many
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "many" because it is used to describe countable nouns, such as friends. Since we are talking about multiple friends, "many" is the appropriate word choice. "Much" is used for uncountable nouns, "lot" is informal and can be used for both countable and uncountable nouns, and "a lots" is grammatically incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    She didn't show ... respect to her guest by ignoring him.

    • Many

    • Much

    • Lots

    • A lot of

    Correct Answer
    A. Much
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "much". In this sentence, the word "much" is used to describe the level of respect shown by the person towards their guest. It implies that the person showed a low or insufficient amount of respect by ignoring the guest. The other options, such as "many", "lots", and "a lot of", do not convey the same meaning in this context.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Have you got any apples left at home? Not so ...

    • Much

    • Many

    • Lot

    • Lots

    Correct Answer
    A. Many
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "many" because "many" is used to describe countable nouns in the plural form, such as "apples." In this question, the speaker is asking if there are any apples left at home, indicating that apples are countable. "Not so many" implies that there are not a large number of apples left.

    Rate this question:

    • Many

    • Much

    • A lot

    • A lots

    Correct Answer
    A. A lot
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "a lot" because it is used to indicate a large amount of something. In this context, it implies that the person has a significant amount of money in their bank account, emphasizing that it is all theirs.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Have you got any sugar? Yes, I've got ...

    • Much

    • Many

    • A lot

    • Lots of

    Correct Answer
    A. A lot
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "a lot" because it is the most appropriate response to the question "Have you got any sugar?" The phrase "a lot" indicates a large quantity or amount, which suggests that the person has a sufficient amount of sugar. The other options, such as "much" and "many," do not convey the same level of abundance as "a lot."

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    We took ... food with us during the trip to Devon.

    • Many

    • Much

    • Lots of

    • A lot

    Correct Answer
    A. Lots of
    Explanation
    During the trip to Devon, we brought a large quantity of food with us. The phrase "lots of" indicates a large amount or number of something, in this case, food. Therefore, "lots of" is the correct answer to complete the sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    ..of the food was not edible anymore.

    • Many

    • Much

    • Lots

    • A lot

    Correct Answer
    A. Much
    Explanation
    The word "much" is the correct answer because it is used to describe an amount or quantity of something. In this context, it indicates that a large amount of the food was not edible anymore. The other options, such as "many," "lots," and "a lot," are used to describe countable nouns or quantities, which do not fit the sentence structure or meaning. Therefore, "much" is the most appropriate choice.
