В упражнениях 112 и 113 необходимо вставить подходящие слова из предложенных: "little", "few", "much", "many". Эти слова используются для обозначения количества и зависят от типа существительных: исчисляемых или неисчисляемых.

Упражнение 112:

1. I have little time, so I can't go with you.

   • "Little" используется с неисчисляемыми существительными, такими как "time".

2. He has few English books.

   • "Few" используется с исчисляемыми существительными, такими как "books".

3. There is little ink in my pen. Have you got any ink?

   • "Ink" — неисчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "little".

4. There are few bears in the zoo.

   • "Bears" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "few".

5. Tom Canty was the son of poor parents and had very few clothes.

   • Хотя "clothes" обычно рассматриваются как неисчисляемое существительное, в данном контексте имеется в виду ограниченное количество предметов одежды, поэтому используется "few".

6. There is too little soup in my plate. Give me some more, please.

   • "Soup" — неисчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "little".

7. The children returned from the wood very sad because they had found very few mushrooms.

   • "Mushrooms" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "few".

8. There was too little light in the room, and I could not read. There are very few people who don't know that the earth is round.

   • "Light" — неисчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "little". "People" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "few".

Упражнение 113:

1. My brother is a young teacher. Every day he spends much time preparing for his lessons.

   • "Time" — неисчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "much".

2. I know little about this writer. It is the first book I am reading.

   • "Little" используется с неисчисляемыми существительными, такими как "about this writer".

3. The pupils of our class ask many questions at the lesson. They want to know everything.

   • "Questions" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "many".

4. You do not make many mistakes in your spelling. Do you work hard at it? —Oh, yes, I do, I work very much.

   • "Mistakes" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "many". "Much" используется для обозначения интенсивности труда.

5. Does your sister read much?-- Yes, she does. And your brother? -- Oh, he doesn't. He has so many books, but he reads very little.

   • "Read" в значении "читать много" требует "much". "Books" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "many". "Reads little" означает, что он читает мало.

6. Have you much work to do today? -- No, not very much.

   • "Work" — неисчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "much".

7. Walk quicker, please. We have very little time.

   • "Time" — неисчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "little".

8. I am sorry to say, I have read very few books by Walter Scott.

   • "Books" — исчисляемое существительное, поэтому используется "few".

Таким образом, выбор между "little", "few", "much" и "many" зависит от типа существительного и контекста предложения.
