1. Use: some, any, no / much or many

• 1. There were some of my friends there. (Утвердительное предложение, поэтому используем 'some').
• 2. Well, anyway, there are. (В предложении подразумевается наличие чего-то, поэтому 'are' и 'some' для утверждения).
• 3. Have you ever seen any of these pictures before? (Вопросительное предложение, поэтому используем 'any').
• 4. There is no water in the kettle: they have drunk it all. (Отрицание отсутствия чего-либо, поэтому 'no').
• 5. There were few birches in that forest, but so many pines. (Здесь подразумевается малое количество, поэтому 'few').
• 6. We could not buy cherries, so we bought some plums instead. (Несмотря на отрицание, дальше идет положительное действие, поэтому 'some').
• I don't eat many mangoes. (Mangoes - исчисляемое, но в отрицательном предложении с 'much/many' используется 'many').
• He does not eat much fish. (Fish - неисчисляемое, в отрицательном предложении с 'much/many' используется 'much').
