Only . . . . . . . . toys have been sold since morning. A. few B. a few C. little D. the few

few
a few
little
the few

The correct answer is A. few.

A few means “a small number of”. It is used to refer to a small number of things or people that are not specified. For example, “I have a few questions for you.”

Little means “not much”. It is used to refer to a small amount of something. For example, “I have little money.”

The few means “the small number of”. It is used to refer to a specific small number of things or people. For example, “The few who remained were the bravest.”

In the sentence “Only few toys have been sold since morning”, the speaker is saying that a small number of toys have been sold. The speaker is not specifying how many toys have been sold, so the word “few” is the most appropriate choice.
