There was ______ rain these days.The grass must be watered.

题目

There was ______ rain these days.The grass must be watered.
(A) little
(B) much
我想,选A的原因是因为后面说要浇水,所以肯定没有下过雨.
选B的原因是因为我可以认为水是雨来浇的,这是一种拟人的写法,写成英文就是The rain watered the grass these days.
请问A和B哪一个对?为什么?

答案

我同意选A.
反驳选B的,must这里如果表推测,用must have been才行,因为是已经被浇过了（过去被浇的）.
