George isn't well. He has taken medicine. He _______ go to hospital for an operation.

Answer 1

The correct option is B might

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 the correct answer because it expresses less possibility which facilitates well in the given sentence.

Whereas option A expresses certain possibility;

option C expresses certain ability; and option D expresses extreme obligation.
