"Many people are unaware of how much sugar they're eating" II. "We do need some sugar, for energy" III. "refined sugar doesn't contain any other nutrients." a.

II. sugar (uncountable noun). c. The quantifiers some (fragment II)and any (fragment III) refer to 1. a definite quantity. II. an indefinite quantity. Language Note Some and any are used when it is not important or easy to say exactly how much/how many of something we are thinking of. We usually use some in affirmative sentences and any in negative and interrogative sentences. We use some in interrogative sentences (offers and requests) if we expect people to answer "affirmatively". E.g.: Can I have some sugar, please?
