Answer 2

・I was surprised that there were so few people.
・I was amazed that there were so few people.

1. I was surprised that there were so few people.
「人がとても少なくて驚いた」

surpriseは日本語でも「サプライズゲスト」と言ったりします。fewは「少ない」事を表しsoを使って強調しています。

例文
I was surprised that there were so few people. The reason I think it is cold.
「人がとても少なくて驚いた。その理由は私が思うに寒いからだと思う」

2. I was amazed that there were so few people.
「人がとても少なくて驚いた」

amazeはsurpriseよりも驚く度合いが大きい時に使います。

例文
I was amazed that there were so few people. I thought there are many people I can not walk.

「人がとても少なくて驚いた。歩けなくなるくらいのたくさんの人がいると思っていた」
