Question

Johnny is a keen player but unfortunately he has ---- skills. a) few

b)none

c) some

d) little​

Answer 1

By filling in the blank with an appropriate word we will get ''Johnny is a keen player but unfortunately he has few skills''.

• These are sentences in which an article or a noun is required to complete the sentence.

• We can use any term that, based on its meaning, makes a good statement.

• The most important thing to remember is to utilize proper syntax and verb forms.

Answer 2

The correct answer is option (a) Few.

Explanation:

• Johnny is a keen player but unfortunately he has few skills.
• Few means “not many but more than one.”
• So, a few cannot be one, but it can be as low as two.
• Few is a quantifier used with plural countable nouns. Without the article “a,” few emphasizes a small number of something.
• Adding the article removes the emphasis—a few means some. The same rule applies to little, which is used with singular uncountable nouns.
