Для правильного использования местоимений "much" и "many", важно помнить, что "many" используется с исчисляемыми существительными во множественном числе, а "much" — с неисчисляемыми существительными. Вариант "a lot of" может использоваться с обоими типами существительных. Давайте рассмотрим каждое предложение:

1. There are many (a lot of) plates on the table. (plates - исчисляемое)
2. Please don`t put much pepper on the meat. (pepper - неисчисляемое)
3. I never eat much bread with soup. (bread - неисчисляемое)
4. Don`t eat so much (a lot of) ice cream. You can catch a cold. (ice cream - неисчисляемое)
5. Many (A lot of) these students can speak English well. (students - исчисляемое)
6. Do you drink much (a lot of) coffee? (coffee - неисчисляемое)
7. How much money have you got? (money - неисчисляемое)
8. He hasn`t got many (a lot of) friends. (friends - исчисляемое)
9. Do you watch TV much (a lot)? – No, not much (a lot). (TV - в первом случае неисчисляемое, во втором - усиление)
10. There is a lot of (much) food in the fridge. (food - неисчисляемое)
11. They haven`t got much money, but they have got many (a lot of) friends. (money - неисчисляемое, friends - исчисляемое)
12. There was a lot of (much) food at the party, but I didn`t eat much. (food - неисчисляемое)

В этих предложениях выбор между "much", "many" и "a lot of" зависит от того, является ли существительное, с которым они используются, исчисляемым или неисчисляемым, а также от стилистических предпочтений в разговорном или письменном английском.
