Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable modal denoting advice.

My father says we ____ buy some sweets.

• A. shall
• B. should
• C. might
• D. need

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

should

Option B is the correct answer because 'should' is the past tense of shall which is used to make suggestions or make predictions , here should is correct and not shall, because we use 'should' for advice and suggestions and not shall, hence Option A is incorrect.

Option C is incorrect because it is in the past tense.

Option D is incorrect because buying sweets is not a necessity or a need, it is just a suggestion in fact.
