Yesterday, at about 11 a.m., a fire broke out in the city's only multi-storeyed
supermarket. It was a busy hour and hundreds of people were busy shopping.
Someone shouted “Fire! Fire!" and the cry was taken up by others, until there was
a deafening chorus. Caught in a panic, men, women and children started running
about like frightened rabbits. Luckily, the manager was a resourceful man. He first
called the Fire Service, then quickly assembled his staff and gave them the necessary
orders. “Turn off the power, John” he said to one. To another, he said, “Felix, close all
the entrances.” He asked yet another of his staff to open all the emergency exits. He
then asked the shoppers, over the public address system, not to give in to panic, but
to leave calmly through the emergency exits. He then rang up the police himself and
told them of the accident. Within minutes, the Fire Service arrived at the scene. The
fire was soon put out. By the time the police arrived, the situation was fully under
control. There were no casualties. find the countable and uncountable nouns in the passage

Answer:
Countable and uncountable nouns
It's important to distinguish between countable and uncountable nouns in English because their usage is different in regards to both determiners and verbs.
Countable nouns
Countable nouns are for things we can count using numbers. They have a singular and a plural form. The singular form can use the determiner "a" or "an". If you want to ask about the quantity of a countable noun, you ask "How many?" combined with the plural countable noun.
