Choose the correct alternative and click the button corresponding to it. In case no improvement is needed, click the option corresponding to 'No improvement'. The city's temperature was so high in the summer months that a few foreign tourists visited during those months. Correct Answer few
The adjective few means hardly any or a very insignificant number.
For example- Though many people come to see poetry performances, few truly understand and appreciate the art.
In the given sentence, it is mentioned that the city's temperature is very high and a logical conclusion that follows from this fact that hardly any or few tourists would visit the city in the summer months due to its high temperature. So, the adjective 'few' is to be used here.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.
Correct Sentence- The city's temperature was so high in the summer months that few foreign tourists visited during those months.
