Answer:
A: Wait! Don't throw your coffee cup in the bin. B: Why not? A: Well, if a lot of people throw away their coffee cups, it makes lots of rubbish. B: I only drink a few coffees in the week. That's not many coffee cups. A: Yes, but I read in an article that people throw away 7 million coffee cups every day in the UK! B: That is a lot! A: I know. The article says that some businesses now have new recycling bins for coffee cups.
Explanation:
- The first option is "a lot of" because A is trying to stop B from throwing the coffee cup to reduce the rubbish. As a consequence of throwing a lot of coffee cups, people make lots of rubbish, in other words, large amounts of it.
- Speaker A is trying to justify that he does not make a lot of rubbish because he only drinks a few coffees. We use a few with countable nouns and a little with uncountable nouns. As speaker A says that he drinks a certain number of this drink (coffee), it is a countable noun, so we have to use a few.
- "Much" is for uncountable nouns, while "many" is for countable and plural nouns. Coffee cups are something that we can count. It is a countable noun, so we choose many.
- Seven million cups is a large number, so we choose a lot to indicate this. Besides, a little is for uncountable nouns, and in this case, we can count the number of coffee cups (7 million).
- We use "some" in affirmative sentences and "any" in negative sentences and questions. In this case, "The article says that some businesses now have new recycling bins for coffee cups." is an affirmative sentence, so we choose some.
Maybe the “brightly lit” house implies that Mead is a joyful person? Sorry I don’t know this book

Usher's madness begins to increase because he can hear the sound of Madeline below.
Even though his sister is buried in the basement, he can constantly hear her scratching her coffin. He was tortured by these sounds until the protagonist came to visit him so he could share his troubles with him. Usher is afraid of his 'undead' sister and of dying himself, which is why he grows crazier and crazier by the day, until he is finally killed by his own sister in the end.
