Practice questions
Q1A teacher says, 'You must not copy during the test.' What is the function of must not?
Must not is stronger than should not. In this test-room sentence, the teacher is not giving optional advice; the teacher is stating a prohibition. Karan’s duty-chart examples use the same strong-rule force.
Q2Meena tells Karan, 'You ___ check the spelling before you submit.' Which modal gives advice, not compulsion?
The sentence is a friendly recommendation before submission. Should is the correct modal for advice. Must would be too strong, can would discuss ability, and will would predict rather than advise.
Q3Which option best repairs the error in Meena's sentence: 'I can to help Devika after class'?
The repair is purely about the form after can. Meena wants to say she is able to help Devika, so can is fine, but the following verb must be help, not to help, helped, helps, or helping.
Q4Devika looks at dark clouds and says, 'It ___ rain after lunch.' Which modal shows weak possibility?
Devika has evidence but not certainty. Might is weaker than may and much weaker than must or will. The item tests the strength scale, not the future tense of the main verb rain.
Q5Assertion: 'Would you open the window?' is a polite request. Reason: Would can soften a request in classroom English.
The stem is an assertion-reason item. Would does not merely mark future time here; it reduces directness and makes the classroom request polite. Therefore both parts are true and the reason explains the assertion.
