Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: much sleep
Solution : The second option is the correct choice.
In the given sentence, the original phrase did not get many sleep is grammatically incorrect. The correct phrase to use when referring to the amount of sleep is much sleep.
By using much sleep , the sentence becomes grammatically accurate as it correctly applies the appropriate term for an uncountable noun (sleep) in expressing the quantity or amount of rest the speaker lacked due to his sister's high fever.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: I did not get much sleep last night as my sister was running a high fever.
