The correct modal in the question blank is "May".
The options in the question are missing which are given below:
Option A: May
Option B: Might
Option C: Will
Option D: Would
- Modal verbs are employed by the speaker in sentences to imply modality such as capacity, permission, likelihood, possibility, counsel, request, and so on. The verb employed expresses the speaker's tone and attitude.
- The proper answer in this sentence is "May" because this verb is used to politely seek permission for some future action to take place. Also, the first person, one who is speaking is referred to in the sentence.
- Modal "might" expresses possibility to a lesser extent therefore it is incorrect.
- Modal "Will" and "Would" are incorrect as though it describes certainty of the future but are used when referring second person.
- Hence, the correct sentence is: "May I open the windows?" (Option A)
