Fill in the blank with appropriate option.
You ___ reduce the speed. There is a speed limit.
- A
Need to
- B
Ought to
- C
Must
- D
Will
The correct answer is "Must" because it denotes a strong necessity or obligation to reduce speed immediately due to the speed limit, making it mandatory. "Need to" and "Ought to" suggest less urgent obligations or recommendations, lacking the imperative nature of "must." "Will" indicates a future action, which does not fit the context of needing to reduce speed right now.
This phrase implies a necessity or obligation, but lacks the immediate and strong imperative nature required in this context.
While this suggests a recommendation or good practice, it does not convey the mandatory nature required by a speed limit.
Expresses a strong necessity or obligation. It indicates that reducing the speed is mandatory due to the presence of a speed limit.
Denotes future intention or prediction, which is not suitable for expressing immediate necessity or obligation.
