A Correct answer
Explanation

This is the same question as 124334 but with 'few' marked as correct and 'both are correct' marked incorrect. This inconsistency between the two questions suggests a flawed or unclear item. In standard usage, 'few' (without article) would emphasize scarcity - 'he has many friends, but few are good ones' makes sense. However, question 124334 accepts both as correct, creating a contradiction.
