    Just a small note on synonyms in English: "a lot" is equivalent of "much", thus, "The boy eats much, but he is small."

    Yes but in contemporary English we don't use much by itself in affirmative statements, only in questions or negations. However, if it is qualified by an adverb (e.g. very) then it is okay in affirmative statements as well.
