a few

The correct answer is Option (2) - a few

Let’s test each option in the sentence:

Sentence: The teacher asked him ______ questions.

1. much questions → Incorrect ❌ ("much" is used with uncountable nouns, while “questions” is countable).

2. a few questions → Correct ✅ (means some questions).

3. any questions → Possible in negatives or interrogatives (“Did the teacher ask him any questions?”), but awkward here in a positive statement.

4. every questions → Incorrect ❌ ("every" is used with singular nouns, e.g., every question).

Final sentence: The teacher asked him a few questions.
