'Few' (without 'a') indicates a small number, often implying a negative or insufficient quantity, which aligns with the feeling of loneliness. 'A few' would imply a small but sufficient number.

a little

'Every' is used with a singular countable noun ('student') to refer to all members of a group individually, emphasizing the collective aspect of each one receiving a certificate. 'All' would require a plural noun ('All students').

Answer: B. its
'Its' is the possessive form of 'it', indicating ownership by the cat. 'It's' is a contraction of 'it is' or 'it has'.

a lot of / much
Show answer

'Warnings' and 'people' are both countable nouns. 'Several' is used for an indefinite number of countable nouns, and 'many' is used for a large number of countable nouns. This combination fits the context of warnings being given and people ignoring them.
