Answer 1

Explanation:

First lets identify if the noun is countable or uncountable.

Hope is an uncountable noun.

Since, 'few' and 'many' are used with plural countable nouns, Option D and Option C are ruled out as Hope is uncountable.

The sentence doesn't have the word 'not', which makes it a positive sentence.

Since, 'any' is mostly used with negative sentences, Option A is ruled out.

That makes Option B the correct answer. Also,

Little is used with uncountable nouns
