Fill in the gap. Choose the correct answer. There was very ____ rain last autumn.

The word "rain" is an uncountable noun. Therefore, we use "little" or "much" with it. Since the sentence states "very ____", it implies a large quantity, making "much" the correct choice. The sentence "There was very much rain last autumn." is grammatically correct and conveys the intended meaning. The options "few" and "many" are used with countable nouns.
