Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable modal.

I _____ like you to answer my question properly.

• A. might
• B. may
• C. shall
• D. would

Answer 1

The correct option is D would

Option D is the correct answer because 'would' is the past tense of will which is used to express immediate intentions and decisions,and to express someone’s willingness to do something or to make offers,or to make requests and invitations.

In this case,the speaker states that he is expecting a proper answer, which is a request and his intention.

Option B and C are incorrect because 'may' and 'shall' are used to suggest or take permission which is not correct in this case.

Option A is incorrect because 'might' is the past tense of 'may'.
