Q:1 (5) The sentence is correct as written. The ordinal number “third” is used to indicate the specific building being referred to in relation to the other buildings in the street. There is no error in the use of this quantifier.

Q:2 (2) Much is used to describe mass nouns or uncountable nouns like juice, rice, patience, and happiness. When using  much, the noun will always be singular; it cannot be plural. Many is used to describe count nouns or nouns that can be counted like books, ideas, leaves, and shoes. Since the above sentence talks about ‘photos’ which can be counted, the correct filler is ‘many’ 

Q:3 (4) In sentences where we are differentiating one from a group, we use the plural form i.e. ‘One of my friends’. So, the correct answer is ‘my friends’.

Q:4 (2) Few means “not many (people or things).” It is used to say that there are not a lot of people or things. A few means “some (people or things).” It is used to say that there are a small number of people or things.

Q:7 (2) The determiners another refers to something different, remaining, or additional. The sentence talks about one of the Books written by ‘Stephen Covey’. The best suitable filler is ‘another’ because it talks about one of the classic books out of all others written by him.

Q:8 (2) The determiners that has been filled in the blank is the “Possessive determiners”. As the sentence talks about a set of people as a whole, then we need to use plural pronoun, which is ‘their’.

Q:1 (2) Since we use much with ‘uncountable nouns’. So, it fits best as per sentence context.

Q:2 (1) As the sentence talks about friends (Plural) which is countable and in a positive tone. The best filler is ‘a few’.

Q:3 (2) ‘Lots of’ is used for informal sentences and ’a lot of’ is used in formal sentences. As the above sentence is an informal one, the correct filler will be ‘lots of’.

Q:4 (2) ‘Lots of’ is used for informal sentences ands ’a lot of’ i used in formal sentences. As the above sentence is a formal one, the correct filler will be ‘a lot of’.

<h2 id="content-id-1399-5">Solutions of Hard Level Determiners Questions</h2>

Q:1 (3) “The several movies” should be “several movies” without “the.” “The” is an article that is used before a noun to specify the noun as a definite noun. In this case, “the several movies” is incorrect as “several” itself is an indefinite determiners. Therefore, using “the” before “several movies” is redundant and incorrect.

Q:2 (2) The correct order of determiners for adjectives in English is “opinion - size - age - shape - color - origin - material.” Therefore, the correct order of determiners in this sentence should be “a beautiful antique wooden French chair.”

Q:3 (1) In this case, we are referring to individual employees, so the determiners “each” should be used instead of “every”.

Q:4 (4) “Some” should be replaced with “several”. The word “some” is an indefinite quantifier, which refers to an unspecified quantity or number. In this sentence, it does not convey the extent of the corrections needed in the report. The use of “several” is more appropriate as it indicates a specific number of corrections that need to be made, conveying a more precise meaning.

Q:5 (2) The correct phrase would be “I need to buy a new pair of running shoes”. In this case, we are referring to a singular item, so the indefinite article “a” should be used.

Q:6 (1) The use of “some” implies that not all students are required to bring their textbooks to class, which could be incorrect. The sentence should indicate that all students are required to bring their textbooks.

Q:7 (2) The correct word should be “much” instead of “many”. “Many” is used with countable nouns while “much” is used with uncountable nouns. In this case, “experience” is an uncountable noun, so “much” should be used instead of “many”.

Q:8 (2) The correct answer is “many, few.” “Many” is used to indicate a large number of people who believe in ghosts, while “few” is used to indicate a small number of people who are willing to admit it. Therefore, option (b) is the correct answer.

Q:9 (2) The quantifier “a few” is used to express a small number, but it implies that it is enough or sufficient for the purpose. In this sentence, it implies that there are some employees who can speak Mandarin, and it is enough for the company’s needs. The quantifier “few” without “a” has a negative connotation and means “not many” or “scarcely any”. The quantifiers “little” and “a little” are used for non-countable nouns, such as “time”, “money”, or “experience”, and express a small amount or quantity.

Q:10 (4) The correct form of the ordinal number quantifier is ‘third prize’ instead of ‘a third prize’
