some trees

- Option 1: with hardly

- This phrase is grammatically correct. "With hardly" can precede a noun or phrase to indicate a lack of something.

- Option 2: The woodcutter felled

- This is a grammatically correct phrase. It establishes the subject (the woodcutter) and the action (felled).

- Option 3: many effort at all

- This is incorrect. The word "many" should be replaced with "much" because "effort" is an uncountable noun.

- Option 4: some trees

- This phrase is correct. It identifies the object of the action.
