Question 1
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the appropriate modal denoting necessity:

You ______ come and have dinner with me.

A
used to

B
might

C
shall

D
must

Solution

Modal verbs determine the mood of the sentence, by expressing its meaning, such as permission, obligation, necessity. The given sentence refers to an necessity, the speaker is inviting the listener "you" to have dinner together. From the given options, 'must' expresses necessity. It is necessary for the listener to go to dinner with the speaker. Hence option D is correct. 'Used to' is a modal verb that refers to something that happened in the past, the given sentence does not refer to the past hence option A is incorrect. 'Might' is used to express a possibility in the affirmative sense, it does not express a necessity hence option B is incorrect. 'Shall' and 'must' have similar meanings, but are slightly different in usage. 'Shall' refers to duty, an order or a future event, whereas 'must' refers to an obligation or necessity. Since the sentence refers to an necessity and not a duty or order, option C is incorrect.

Choose the correct option to fill in the blank:
_____ you like some pastries?

Would

C

D
Must

Solution

Modal Verbs show us the attitude of the speaker to what is being said or done. The term "modal" means expressing mood and mood is a way to express the attitude of the speaker.
Option B is correct because "would " expresses a polite way offering invitation, which is appropriate according to the question.
Whereas option C expresses possibility and therefore does not support structure of the question; option D expresses what must be done, a strong assurance of getting the job done as a result doesn't fit in the question; option A expresses what is supposed to be done and therefore this doesn't fits in the given question as well.

All other options are incorrect.

Solution

Therefore, option B is the most appropriate answer to complete the given sentence.
