Explanation:

• In this question, there are some sentences given which are incomplete and has missing words in each of the sentences. We are asked to fill the blanks with an appropriate quantifier from the options given in the brackets.

• Some, any, each, every, little, a few are examples of quantifiers. Quantifiers are words used in sentences before a noun to provide information about the amount or quantity of an object or a thing or a substance.

• The quantifiers 'any' and 'some' are used for plural nouns that are uncountable. The difference in their use is that 'any' is used in questions and in negative form of sentences while 'some' is used for sentences that are in positive form. For example: He doesn't have any money. He has some money.

• The quantifiers 'every' and 'each' are used with nouns that are singular to indicate their quantity. 'Each' represents two or more items while 'every' is used when three or more items are involved in a sentence.

• Also, 'each' is used to denote items individually of a group and 'every' is used to denote all the items or things together or collectively.

• The quantifier 'little' represents hardly any quantity and 'a little' represents a small amount. Similarly, 'few' represents not many things or person while 'a few' represents some number of people or things.
