A. There has been a very little rain this summer
B. You are intelligent, not he
C. You are the intelligent, not him
A. There has been a very little rain this summer
The correct sentence is: There has been very little rain this summer
Here’s why:
- uses “very little” which is the correct way to express a small amount of something uncountable like rain.
- compares intelligence between “you” and “he” but uses the wrong structure. It should be “you are more intelligent than he is” or “you are intelligent, he is not.”
- uses “the intelligent” which implies “the most intelligent” which might not be the intended meaning. It’s better to use “you are intelligent” for a simple comparison.
