II. UNDERSTANDING
Grammar- modal verbs: should, must "Should" is most commonly used to make recommendations or give advice. It can also be used to express obligation as well as expectation. It is going to rain, you should take your umbrella. It is cold, we should put on our warm clothes. Must "Must" is most commonly used to express certainty. It can also be used to express necessity or strong recommendation, although native speakers prefer the more flexible form "have to." "Must not" can be used to prohibit actions, but this sounds very severe. You must take some medicine for that cough. Jenny, you must not play in the street!
