Question

Fill in the blank with an appropriate modal verb.

He _____ not worry about me.

• A. May
• B. Would
• C. Need
• D. Could

Answer 1

The correct option is C Need

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 C is the correct answer because it expresses necessity.

Whereas option A suggests possibility; option D suggests ability which was supposed to be shown in the past; and option B expresses unsure certainty which is to be done in future.
