In the question below choose the word(s) or phrase(s) which best fills(s) the gap(s):
I know i _____ read more, but i am tired
Answer Details
The option that best fits the blank is "ought to."
In this sentence, the speaker expresses a desire to read more but is too tired to do so. The phrase "ought to" indicates a sense of obligation or duty. So, the speaker is saying that they have a responsibility or obligation to read more, but they are too tired to do so at the moment.
The other options do not fit as well in this sentence. "May" suggests that the speaker has permission to read more, but it does not express any obligation or duty. "Would" indicates a conditional statement, so it does not convey the same meaning as "ought to". "Could" expresses ability or possibility, which is not relevant to the context of the sentence.
