why it says "there are many more people"? I am doing reading study now. But I don't understand why it says "there are many more people". I just know "many people" or "much more people". Can anyone help me? Thank you.

'many more' means 'a lot more'. It is very similar to 'much more', but 'many more' is generally used to refer to countable nouns, while 'much more' is used to refer to uncountable nouns. Example: "There are MANY MORE people here at school today", whereas "There is MUCH MORE alcohol to drink at this party compared to the party we were at last week" The countable sense of 'people' is used above, while the uncountable sense of 'alcohol' is used.

"much more' would refer to uncountable things, much more water much more sand much more love much more thought "many more" or "many" would refer to countable things. many more drinks many more cars many more ideas many more people To be clear, nobody would say, 'much more people'.

Just to add to @tetiana's answer: "a dozen" function here as an adjective phrase meaning "twelve." So your boss may ask you to buy a dozen donuts, but a native speaker won't ask you to buy "a dozen of donuts."
