Resolução comentada
Quantificadores: plenty of / any / a few / enough.
'Plenty of work' é natural. Em 'We don't have any time' usa-se 'any' na negativa. 'A few challenges' vai com substantivo contável plural. 'Enough information' vai com substantivo incontável.
Análise das alternativas
A, C) 'no' depois de 'don't have' forma dupla negativa. B) 'a lot' sem 'of' e 'a few' repetido de forma errada. C e D) 'a little challenges' é incorreto, pois 'challenges' é contável.
