From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences.
Because it had been raining heavily all morning...........people turned out to welcome the August visitor.
The sentence would read:
"Because it had been raining heavily all morning, few people turned out to welcome the August visitor."
The word "few" is used to emphasise that only a small number of people attended due to the heavy rain. We use "a few" when we are not necessarily emphasising the smallness of the number but emphasising something else in the sentence.
