(Instituto Avalia) - QUESTÃO

Identify the sentence with the appropriate quantifier.

Ⓐ There are any people at the meeting.

Ⓑ She has sometime to finish the project.

Ⓒ Do you have many milk in the refrigerator?

Ⓓ How much dogs do you have?

Ⓔ I didn't get any of the cake.

Here’s why:

• Ⓐ “There are any people” — any is usually used in negatives or questions, not affirmative statements. Correct: There are some people…

• Ⓑ “She has sometime” — should be some time (two words) to indicate a period of time.

• Ⓒ “Do you have many milk” — milk is uncountable, so it should be much milk.

• Ⓓ “How much dogs” — dogs is countable, so it should be How many dogs.

• Ⓔ  — Correct use of any in a negative sentence.
