I used to watch her from my kitchen window, she seemed so small as she muscled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground. The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they played during recess. A sea of children, and yet to me, she stood out from them all.
I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball. I watched in wonder as she ran circles around the other kids. She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net. The boys always tried to stop her but no one could.
I began to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone. She would practice dribbling and shooting over and over again, sometimes until dark. One day I asked her why she practiced so much. She looked directly in my eyes and without a moment of hesitation she said, “I want to go to college. The only way I can go is if I get a scholarship. I like basketball. I decided that if I were good enough, I would get a scholarship. I am going to play college basketball. I want to be the best. My Daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.” Then she smiled and ran towards the court to recap the routine I had seen over and over again.
Well, I had to give it to her—she was determined. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week, she led her varsity team to victory.
One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head cradled in her arms. I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. “Oh, nothing,” came a soft reply. “I am just too short.” The coach told her that at 5’5”she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team—（ ） offered a scholarship—so she should stop dreaming about college.
She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment. I asked her if she had talked to her dad about it yet.
She lifted her head from her hands and told me that her father said those coaches were wrong. They just did not understand the power of a dream. He told her that if she really wanted to play for a good college, if she truly wanted a scholarship, that nothing could stop her except one thing — her own attitude. He told her again, “If the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.”
The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was seen by a college recruiter. She was indeed offered a scholarship, a full ride, to a Division , NCAA women’s basketball team. She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of and worked toward for all those years.
It’s true: If the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count. （ ）A.far more B.much less C.much fewer D.many more 请说明B.C选哪个，我认为奖学金scholarship是可数名词，应该用fewer来修饰，much是修饰fewer的，不是吗？如果不是，请说出为什么。

解题思路： 如下
解题过程：
选B正确。奖学金scholarship是可数名词，但此空与该词无关。much less此处是一个固定短语，表示一种追加的否定。less是由little的否定意义而来的，所以这个词组只能用于否定句中，意为"更不用说、更不必说"。后面可跟名词，代词和从句。 如：
He can hardly run a mile, much less the marathon.
他连一里都跑不了，更不用说马拉松了。
句意是：篮球教练告诉她，以她五英尺五英寸的身材，几乎是没有机会到一流的球队去打球的，更不用说会获得奖学金了，所以她应该放弃想上大学的梦想。
最终答案：略
