Night Skiing
Bob and Linda are planning a ski trip. Fill the blank spaces with
much
or
many.
Example:
How
many
blank spaces are there in this quiz? There are twelve.
Example:
How
much
time will it take you? Just a few minutes.
Bob:
Hey Linda. Want to come skiing with us?
Linda:
You're not serious. It's five o'clock and it's getting dark.
Bob:
I know, but we're going to Morin Heights. They have night skiing and it's not too expensive.
Linda:
How
is a ski pass?
Bob:
After 6 p.m. it's only 10 bucks.
Linda:
How
people are going?
Bob:
Eight in all, if you come.
Linda:
Eight! How
cars are you taking?
Bob:
Just two, with four people in each. Coming?
Linda:
Maybe I will. How
time do I have to get ready?
Bob:
Lots. We're not leaving until six.
Linda:
I may need to go to the bank first. How
money do I need?
Bob:
Only about twenty bucks. Ten for the ski pass, three for gas, and if we get hungry, we can stop at a McDonald's. A big Mac's just a couple of bucks, and how
big Macs can you eat?
Linda:
Okay. I have enough money for that. So tell me, what are the skiing conditions like? How
snow do they have at Morin Heights?
Bob:
Lots. The skiing conditions are perfect. Trust me.
Linda:
And how
intermediate trails do they have? I'm not an expert skier.
Bob:
Lots. Don't worry. You'll be fine.
(Later, on the way home from the ski hill)
Linda:
Wow! What a great ski hill. I even skied on the expert run. I don't know how
times I fell, but it was a lot of fun anyway. So tell me, Bob, how
do I owe you for gas?
Bob:
Let me check how
gas I have left in the tank. That's how I know how
liters I used. Yeah, I used about 20 liters, so that's 12 bucks divided by four, so each person owes me three bucks. Is that okay?
Linda:
Of course.
