Read the teenage vampire's diary entry and select the right option for the blank.

"Since moving to this sunny town, I have made _____ friends; it turns out most people are afraid of guys who drink blood for breakfast."

The correct answer is few.

"Friends" is a countable noun, which rules out little and a little. Because the vampire is pointing out a sad, negative situation (he hardly has any friends because people are afraid of him), we use few (meaning "almost none"). Using a few would mean he successfully made a good number of friends!
