Model Answer

(C) many

In our country, many universities offer a range of courses. That's why foreign students prefer Indian universities.

Explanation

"Many" is correct because it refers to an indefinitely large number of countable nouns (universities) in an affirmative sentence. "More" implies comparison, "each" refers to individual items, and "few" means hardly any — contradicting the idea that foreign students prefer Indian universities.
